BUFFALOKIE Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Funniest prediction from Steelers message board: Bills 30 Steelers 10 Ben Gets Sacked 5 times Time of POS: 25 minutes with Ben holding the ball 23 minutes to long. Funny. That is pretty close to my prediction earlier. God, I want the Bills to beat the friggin Squeelers more than any other team on the schedule this year.

Simon Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 I hear you...can you pick up EJ because honestly Pitt's secondary is bad. I wouldn't say they're bad; they've got a few good players in Polamalu, Taylor and Clark. But this year they've been completely hung out to dry by an under-performing Front7.

I agree with you on the talent of the safeties but that secondary as a whole has lost a step.

I think it's abundantly clear Buffalo needs to continue to emphasize the running game, and then if Pitt starts overloading to stop it we've now got a QB back there who can make them pay.
YoloinOhio Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) Bills need to exploit the areas where they have clear advantages: the running game and DL. If they can do that and put pressure on Ben, they should be OK. I don't see this as a high scoring game but more like the KC game in total points. Edited November 7, 2013 by YoloInTheBlo
bisonbrigade Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 I see CJ exploding for a few long TD runs and over 100 yards.
TPS Posted November 7, 2013 Author Posted November 7, 2013 I think it's abundantly clear Buffalo needs to continue to emphasize the running game, and then if Pitt starts overloading to stop it we've now got a QB back there who can make them pay. Yes, I think the game plan is similar to the KC game. Run, run, run to set up the play action bomb. I think this game will be a better test to see how the D is coming along because KC's offense is offensive. I have faith the Bills will score at least 24, so this game will be on the D to hold Pitt to less.
YoloinOhio Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 I see CJ exploding for a few long TD runs and over 100 yards. Darren McFadden, Terrelle Pryor and AP all had big days rushing against them and even NE who struggled running the ball did the same, esp toward the end of the game when Pitt's D was worn out, which opened up everything for Brady's passing game even more.

I can't see this staff schooling the master, Steelers 27-20

I can't see this staff schooling the master, Steelers 27-20 FYI, Le Beau is actually a pupil of the Zone Blitz Scheme that he was introduced to by Dom Capers. Bills 23 Steelers 14.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 I don't understand the overconfidence. I recall a similarly overconfident thread before we played the Jets this year, re how silly Geno was going to look. We are playing a veteran team with a veteran QB who is playing at a high level, and the game is on the road. I think if we win this game, we're going to have to generate several key turnovers-- very similar to how we won the Dolphins game. This is going to be a 17-16 type game, if we can pull it off.

26CornerBlitz Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 @buffalobills Marrone: pleased with what he saw from WR Marquise Goodwin in practice. WR Robert Woods will travel; status uncertain.
Wayne Cubed Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Le Beau is the master of the zone blitz, which the Bills OL has had difficulty picking up. I can't see this staff schooling the master, Steelers 27-20 He's such a master that he's coached them to the 3rd lowest sack total in the league at 13.0 sacks. Guess that blitz is really working this year huh? The Bills OL just held the league leading KC Chiefs to ZERO sacks. This defense is a shell of its former self, that is a fact.

26CornerBlitz Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Steelers' CB Ike Taylor may be out with a concussion. Would be big for the Bills' passing game.
