eball Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Philly, but Foles tries to throw it more from that play. He is aided by a better TE in Ertz. What's a TE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tito1 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Calvin Johnson seems to be pretty banged up, and Matt stafford was limping last week. I really hope Schwartz can get the defense up to play a lights out game and we can pull out a HUGE win. Bush scares me on big plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Seriously. I'm waiting for the defense to disappoint. SD was the closest they came to it, but still made good adjustments mid-game and gave us a chance to come back. Schwartz knows the Lions well. It'll be another game where the offense decides our fate. Mid-game? More like the 4th quarter. San Diego used half the third quarter on the opening drive of the second half. D couldn't get off the field to save it's life. I'm hoping any adjustments we may have to make in Detroit are made before that happens again. GO BILLS!!!

26CornerBlitz Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 @buffalobills Doug Marrone: "There aren't a lot of creases in the @Lions defense right now," one of the top units in the @nfl. Doug Marrone: "Kyle Williams (DNP, knee) is one of those players who doesn't have to practice in order to play. There aren't many of those" @detnewsRodBeard #Bills Orton on getting a good start: (#Lions defense) turns the game fast for them and put (teams) in predictable passing situations. @buffalobills The scrum around #Bills QB Kyle Orton. @buffalobills Kyle Orton likens the 2005 #Bears to 2014 #Bills. Great defense, dynamic playmakers. Those Bears started 1-3, finished 11-5 & won NFC North. @BuffaloBillsPR @BuffaloBills QB Kyle Orton is 4-0 in his career against the Lions. Here’s a look at how he fared in all four outings @ChrisTrapasso #Bills clearly think pretty highly of Jairus Wynn, Corbin Bryant and Stefan Charles on their DL. None of those players can duplicate Kyle Williams' effectiveness, but healthy rotation of those three should be fine for #Bills. Having a healthy Kyle Williams for Week 6 vs. Patriots or for months of November/December = more important than rushing him back vs. Lions. Matthew Stafford: "It's going to be a challenge" (05:44) Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford spoke to the media via conference call to discuss the Lions 3-1 start, their top ranked defense, and the challenge of executing their offense against the Bills. @buffalobills .@Fred22Jackson: "I don't focus on the changes being made. I focus on what I can do to make us better." .@Fred22Jackson: "This isn't just about EJ. As an offense, we need to get the job done." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
