Bills' Tyrod Taylor, LeSean McCoy will test Redskins' defense

ASHBURN, Va. -- Three things I learned about the Washington Redskins' next opponent, the Buffalo Bills, after watching their games, talking to players and coaches and doing a little research:

Tyrod Taylor is a playmaker. But his magic number for passes is 30; if he throws more than that the Bills are 0-5; they’re 6-0 when he’s under that amount. Taylor has had a terrific season, but it’s only his first year starting, so he’s still developing as a passer -- he’ll sometimes try to flick passes when there’s no need or will look off targets early -- and is quick to leave the pocket.
