My Take on the Matchup: How can a Practice Squad QB get activated and beat a pretty good team that just shut down Tom Brady? By all accounts, this game should be an easy win for the Bengals. So, why even watch? Well, for starters... 1. The Bills defense should get most of the starters back this week. With the reinforcements showing up just in the nick of time, we get our first look at Byrd in 2013. Add in Gilmore and Leo and the backfield might finally be able to stop someone on 3rd and 10 or more. Its worth watching just to see how much playing time they all get, and how much rust they have on them. 2. Kiko, enough said. 8. Brian Moorman to punt! 4. Thad the Impaler. For me, he's a complete mystery. On one hand, from the brief game film I've seen he looks raw, inaccurate downfield, and too quick to go with his first read. On the other hand, it can be argued that I just described EJ's performance through the first month of the season. So, will the offense be that much different? To offset these concerns, it would seem logical to have Spiller and Freddie and Choice run and run some more. But, how many times have we seen Bills Coaches out smart themselves? However, if Hackett can draw up a good game plan and our secondary can keep Dalton from looking like a first ballot HOFer, we stand a good chance to upset the Bengals with a practice squad QB. The defense has yet to shut an opponent down and there's little reason to believe they'll start this week. As for the Bengals defense, they will almost certainly play the run and dare Thad to beat them. So, as I see it, there's only one key to this game, as far as the Bills are concerned... the offensive success and most likely the game, boils down to how well Thad handles the pressure coupled with his ability to be more accurate with downfield passes. And that's why I'll be watching; hoping for Thad to shine and the renewed secondary to finally get off the field on 3rd and forever with some consistency. Go Bills!!

Golden Wheels Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Weird things happen when these teams face each other. Weird things, man. 2 yrs ago in November, the Bills were down 31-14 at halftime at Cincy and came back to win. At the time, the Bills had one win. Don't write off this game just yet.
Punch Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Jene Bramel @JeneBramel 1m Bills listing Stephon Gilmore as starting corner, with Byrd/Williams starting at safety. Also have Bradham over Moats at LB.
Zona Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 i think it goes without saying that for the Bills to have any chance at all, the defense must play the best game of the season to date. We cannot allow the Bungals to control the ball on offense. We will not be able to score alot of points, so our Defense MUST limit them 10 or less to have a shot...

Andrew Son Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 I predict a big day for Easley. I bet he has been working with Thad a lot.

Big C Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Justin Rogers is inactive folks. I repeat. Justin Rogers, is, inactive. Whoa! Weird things happen when these teams face each other. Weird things, man. 2 yrs ago in November, the Bills were down 31-14 at halftime at Cincy and came back to win. At the time, the Bills had one win. Don't write off this game just yet. 3 years ago, but yes that was wild. I think we can do this!
Dan Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) Nicely done! To the point and informative with just a wee hint of homer I look forward to you keeping this going Unfortunately, I'm a Bills fan. I don't deny it, I can't escape it. So, yeah, everything I do is a little biased towards the Bills. This game, however, I truly think just comes down to the Bills. The two teams are fairly evenly matched. So, its up to the Bills to win this and not lose it. And to win it, I think Thad is going to have to score some points with a good defense coming after him. Edited October 13, 2013 by Dan
Just Jack Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 So CBS goes to RWS to talk with the broadcasting team. And once again, I can hear "In The Air Tonight" in the background. I wish the Bills would update their pre-game music to something newer.
