Harris (their best running back I believe?) is out, so that makes things easier on our defense, which is likely getting a few pieces back anyway

Stevenson is superior in all aspects imo.  They’re better off without Harris

Same as always - skirting boundary of rules and cheating,  Remember this is DC from Superbowl XXV who instructed his defense to lie down on top of players to slow down offense.

 

 

He knows the rules better than anyone in the history of the game.  He exploits them. That's not cheating.  It's being smarter than everyone else.

[NoHuddleKelly12]

What he will do is try to distract our offense by creating a "can't look away" type of sideline car crash...

He will try to shut down Diggs. Without him, the passing game will be limited 

Yea, that worked so well last year when McKenzie destroyed them.

I really do miss the Bills playing Sunday at 1:00. It seems like we don't get to many of those anymore.

 

I don't, those are the only game we seem to lose. Josh just plays better in prime time. 

[Marcus Aurelius]

Good question but it begs another question, i.e. why does the Bills defensive coaching staff often lack a discernible and specific strategy to shut down an opponent's offense.

He’s having a bunch of wind tunnels  constructed….

Stevenson is their best RB and also a really good receiver

They did beat Cleveland and had that comeback win at Baltimore with a 1:00 start.

Thursday to Thursday is weird but having 10 days off before the Jest game should help this team get healthy.  At this point,  the number one seed would be nice but having everyone healthy is huge.

Just get in. Last year, two 4 seeds played in the SB.

rosseau used in limited rotation this week is goign to help but i don't want to use him too much.

 

our pressure needs to come from inside - jones, oliver, etc.

 

this week i like moving lawson inside some. he's quick enough to beat their weaker guys inside to get to the qb. this disguised look brings pressure and lets it be known but not from where.

What happened to that guy called Jordan Phillips? I had high expectations after week, one and the pressure he was putting on. Also, Tim settle has been underwhelming. Completely underwhelming. I would love to see Shaq on the interior as well, but he is needed as an end right now, due to the complete lack of DE’s they have.

For sure, I just think the team, and Josh, plays better in prime time.

I think we really need to focus on stopping the run, and hope there's no hurricane force winds.

Teams haven't had to protect both edges with rosseau out and limited outside pass rush.

 

Get them both back and it will improve. Settle is not going to look as pretty in the stat column as he will on the field. 

 

Phillips has his strengths and they're tremendous but is limited elsewise on skill to make him a fully rounded out top tier player. This week he should make a difference on the pats interior.

Josh is going to have to improvise for much of the game…. Quessenberry and Brown as the Tackles is cringe worthy….. good thing is Allen’s used to it and incredible at finding space to make something happen as his offensive line collapses in front of him. 

One word for that: Judon

[dorquemada]

run the ball until the Bills stop them

 

blitz until the Bills stop them

[YoloinOhio]

 

[US Egg]

JA17, even with the rest of the team on his back, scares opponents.

 

Have not had that fear to instill in foes in these parts for some time.
