peterpan Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 I get the feelin the bills will lose. Their D should hold us to like 3 points as long as Vick doesn't turn it over. Vick will give our D problems which he did when he took over for Geno on the first meeting. Plus we always split (or get swept by) the jest and it always seems we win the away game and lose the home game.

26CornerBlitz Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 NFL picks: In bland Week 12, Cardinals staring down a challenge in Seattle Monday, Nov. 24 If the Bills had to lose a home game this week due to the many complications created by the massive snowfall totals in some parts of the Buffalo area, at least the NFL had the decency to move their game against the Jets to Detroit on Monday night. Buffalo enjoyed perhaps the high point of its season in Week 5 at Ford Field, when the visiting Bills rallied for 11 fourth-quarter points to defeat the Lions 17-14 in Kyle Orton’s first start after taking over for benched quarterback EJ Manuel. So Motown, the longtime home of former Bills owner Ralph Wilson and family, has already been a source of good karma for Buffalo in 2014 and might be again. And to think of it another way, of all NFL teams, the Bills are familiar with the idea of playing one game a year at a domed stadium that’s not in their home market. The organization puts its lackluster Toronto series on hold this year, but events beyond anyone’s control just conspired to replace it with a Detroit "home" game this season.
26CornerBlitz Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Picking Week 12 games 24 20 Key matchup: Kyle Orton vs. third down. After being brilliant on third downs in his first four starts this year, posting a passer rating well north of 100 in those situations, Orton produced a 67.4 and 66.7 rating on third down in the Bills' back-to-back losses. That's consistently ... sucky. X-factor: Michael Vick's wheels. Vick has run for nine first downs over the past three weeks, and he's averaging more than 6 yards per scamper. We know about the pass rush of the host Bills, but if Mario Williams and Co. reach Vick only to see him escape, it might not be the best thing for Buffalo. Football weirdness: In terms of yards per rush, Vick is the NFL's all-time best at 7.06 yards per crack. The list (minimum of 1,000 carries) goes like this: 1) Vick, 2) Randall Cunningham, 3) Jamaal Charles, 4) Jim Brown. #NYJvsBUF ESPN New York Week 12 Predictions: Jets at Bills
