All blue is snazzy as heck. Secondly, maybe I'm misremembering, but I don't recall the Bills ever losing in the current blue-on-blue since they debuted them against GB in 2014. They beat GB in them in 2014 They beat the Jets in them in 2015 Allen hung 42 on Miami in them last year Anyone remember any others? EDIT: now that I think about it they lost to Cinci in them in 2015 Edited October 24, 2019 by thebandit27

They are what they are. If they play well, Buffalo will also have to play well, but thinking a team playing its third game in a row on the road will be “extra” hungry for this one is some serious BBFS. You know what? I think the Bills are extra hungry as well because they know they need to keep pace with the Pats***. If we allow ourselves for a few moments to believe the Bills are actually a good team we don’t “worry” about a game like this. I think Thurman or Talley said it best on WGR one day. That anger only lasts a series. After that, it’s business as usual.

After that, it’s business as usual. The eagles seem to be to be a divided locker room and a group that isn’t united toward one goal. There just isn’t cohesion you typically need hot team success. Whatever happened, whether it be coaches or players, it’s affecting their play. Winning cures all though so if they can get this win and head into the bye week at .500 in a division that is up for grabs, things could turn around. 1
billsfan89 Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Tricky game for the Bills this Sunday. The Eagles arguably are the second most talented team the Bills have faced this season (which speaks volumes to the weakness of the Bills schedule thus far) so this isn’t a game that the Bills should be looking for a blowout in. However the Eagles are a very flawed team not playing that well at the moment. For one their o-line has been mostly mediocre this season. Their WR core banged up and ineffective. Their running backs not getting it done. And Wentz isn’t playing well either. But the Eagles still poses offensive talent. Ertz is still a good tight end, Jeffery a big receiver that could do a lot of damage, Jordan Howard a solid between the tackles runner, DeSean Jackson could also make a difference with big plays if he plays, and their O-line isn’t tragic. I think the defenses effectiveness is going to come from the D-line winning the line of scrimmage against the Eagles O-line. If Wentz has time and Howard gets some room the Eagles will be able to move the ball. Defensively the Eagles are a mess. Their secondary is among the worst in the league and their pass rush/front 7 is mid-level. You can get away with a subpar secondary if you have a lot of good pass rushers and solid LB play. The Eagles front 7 is not bad but it is far from elite as it has been in the past. So if Josh gets time he should be able to put up points against this horrid secondary. Overall like most games it is going to be won along the line of scrimmage. Luckily I think the Bills are better on both side of the ball in the trenches. But things can get tricky if on even one side of the ball the Eagles hold the trenches. 3
Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Didn't see this Quinton Spain on injury report https://wgr550.radio.com/articles/news/bills-guard-quinton-spain-misses-practice-foot-injury I hope it's a good sign that Duke Williams and Corey Thompson were practicing, albeit "limited" Also hope it's a good sign Matt Milano out there, again though still "limited" 4 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: He says no surprises besides Pat DiMarco but I am surprised by Spain. What happened there?
billsherd Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 I could see Eagels WR giving bills secondary tough time on Sunday. It will be a close game.

The eagles desperately need a win and they will come ready and willing to do anything to get the win. Bills need to play lights out like they haven’t been able to this far. Bills need to keep winning out from now on and beat these lower level losing teams. Is there any game on the Bills schedule that isn't going to make some fans sweat? Dolphins, Redskins, Broncos, just show up and play like you can. 2 1

Pretty sure we picked him multiple times including Barnett to the house. we beat Philly soundly that game. I was there

SMDH Haven’t ya heard, it’s all about passing for 300 yards in a game now!! 2 1
Chandler#81 Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 7 hours ago, Chandemonium said: I was just thinking something similar. It seems to come from the perception that the Eagles are a good but underachieving team, but it’s at least as likely IMO that they simply aren’t very good. Even if they are extra desperate for a win, thats just as likely to make them press too hard, make mistakes, and psych themselves out as it is to make them come out gangbusters firing on all cylinders. Gentle reminder to those performing Last Rites on the Iggles. They are less than 1& a half seasons removed from winning a Super Bowl over the Evil Empire with a back up QB. This isn’t a ‘We got this!’ game. It’s going to be a brawl and may the toughest dog win. 2

The Falcons are also a couple seasons removed from playing in the Super Bowl. I don’t think very many posters are taking them lightly. If anything, most posters are like you, warning everyone not to take them lightly. Im certainly not doing that.. Even with their injuries, they’ve experienced big games and have Wentz, Jeffery and Ertz. This game would probably do a lot for the National perspective of the Bills given the Eagles name recognition but it’s just as likely that everyone declares Philadelphia another bad team if we drop them to 3-5.

Aireskoi Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Few things I think from watching the Eagles a little: Running up the middle will be tough, but Singletary and McKenzie to the sidelines can work because the Eagles give up contain frequently. RAC will be there as the Eagles take bad tackling angles in their secondary, so maybe the backs going with short passes and not hammer them against the green wall. Josh should be able score with a run to the perimeter if needed in the red zone. Josh needs to get rid of the ball quick, they're coming...again RAC will be there so let the guys make plays. Carson will make big plays and a few key mistakes, they can play patient and manage this game on offense. 1
