Bleeding Bills Blue

Because what you do in the regular season means nothing once you're in the playoffs. Offense is going to have to score points. Neither team has beaten anyone of note but dallas did beat the eagles who absolutely torched us with zone runs? The buffalo run defense is going to get a helping of OZ in this one with one of the best backs in the NFL. They better be ready to make some plays.

Cost us 4 earlier and put us behind the sticks there . And it was a dumb penalty. No reason to do that

Dumb penalty. Drop. Almost pick. Just a normal series once we cross the 50

Football can be so dumb sometimes

Penalty hurt them again

Let's see.. cam Newton won an mvp, mahomes won an mvp, wilson or LJ probably win it this year. Wilson also won a super bowl if that's the made up criteria. Moon is a HOFer, Cunningham had a pretty long decently successful career. Same with McNabb.

I don't think arizona is a cupcake either at this point. They've lost 3 straight close games - gotta think they are still playing hard.

They got a H2H against us and a really talented team. 2 games against the bengals, and 1 against Miami should be 3 easy ones. Then 2 of Pitt, zona, and baltimore. They're missing a really serious all-pro piece of their defense though which might end up biting them.

This is a big game this weekend for playoff hopes. I do think Buffalo will beat pittsburgh, and gase doesn't seem to finish a season once eliminated so i see buffalo winning that one.

21-10 Defense should shut them down and i like singletary-allen to move the ball well enough with their legs to open up some stuff in the passing game. I expect the pass game to be a lot of quick stuff to neutralize their pass rush.

Steelers looked really bad against the browns... and they play them again. Browns could be 9-7 when its all said and done. But don't you just picture them controlling their own destiny and blowing an away game to cincy to end the year?

Neither team has a really easy slate and now the colts have 5 losses. To get to 9-7 Indy needs to win 3 of Titans, Bucs, Saints, Panthers, Jaguars. I'm not sure they have the offense to win 4 of them so i look at them as a likely candidate for 9-7.

I'm saying - there are certain teams that have players they won't trade. These are those players, they're the building blocks. Players that get traded at this point have become distractions, problems, not played to their potential etc. Not 5 time all-pros and MVP caliber running backs.

Kuechly is under contract for 2 more years... reasonable price - why would you release him? As for McCaffrey - same thing, 1 more year on his deal and a 5th year option. MVP candidate and a 5 time first team all-pro LB... those are things you build around. None of these guys are available in 2020 (Cook, McCaffrey, Kamara). Ekeler is a RFA - but he's going to get a fairly high tender so you'd have to overpay and give up probably a 2nd round pick. Cook and Kamara are in the last year of rookie deals so they'll want to negotiate extensions, and possibly be trade candidates if negotiations are far apart - but they aren't available to sign so they will cost you picks.

It's kind of windy in buffalo - no kicker is just blasting them out of the end zone every try. Angling punts is the same thing - u also run the risk of shanking. Punting high is often enough.

He's an RFA anyway so I don't think he's on the radar

They're better than the 6-4 suggests - 4 losses, 3 by 4 or fewer points. I don't know that their defense is as stingy as it appears, but they got a great oline and zeke. Dak's playing fantastic right now... its a tough game. Maybe NE messes up his mojo before thanksgiving - but we're going to need to hang 30 points and not turn it over. Hope they have an aggressive gameplan.

Agreed. They should all be relatively cheap too. 2nd tier RBs ended up with Annual Average values below 3 mil and total guarantee's of about 3. Figure with some inflation - and a lot more talent. 4? per year maybe less?

I also am not a big obrien fan. Don't think he makes that offense go

Lines definitely an issue there. Defense is hurt too and got rolled over

Maybe it was just memories of Watson playing buffalo and I wasn't impressed

Teams usually carry 9 on the 53 and with nsekhe hurt our only backups are long (active on game days), Boettger (inactive), and bates (who will now be active). Bates becomes active as a backup swing tackle and long backup interior. You want another guy inactive on game days in case someone were to go down - then you have a guy who has at least been practicing with the team.

I like the early london games tbh. Football on tv at a time when it never is... have some coffee and eggs. Its kinda nice.

Wilsons never missed a game - pretty crazy.

I dunno - delay of game 5 yarder if you wanted to?
