Chris Simms says whoever Tre is covering will be open

No he thinks it will be a close game and lower scoring than what most people think. Today he predicted 23-21 Bengals with the Bengals getting a late field goal to win it. He called our zone defenses one of the best he's seen in recent years. He does not think we can run the ball on them or that anyone other than Diggs will be able to separate. His concern for the Bengals is their ability to contain Allen on scrambles. Nothing he said is outlandish.

Which does make it sound like he thinks the Bengals a superior team and the Bills shouldn’t show up

I have this vision of Tre White intercepting a pass then looking into the camera and a BIG FY to Simms

Sorry, I didn’t realize Phil is 2 yrs older. I’ve been watching since 1968 and I’m supremely confident I provide better critical analysis than Chris. He has his opinion and that’s fine. He’s sure that the Bills won’t be able to run against Cinncinatti’s front. Why, because NE couldn’t? We have our whole line healthy and Josh will run for 50 himself. 

a healthy Bills Oline has been mediocre.

 

Josh averages 50 yards rushing so your analysis isn’t really going out on a limb to refute Simms

This may be the best team we have faced all season. Chase is arguably the best receiver in the game. Higgins would be a #1 on most teams. Mixon is arguably a top 5 back. Obviously Burrow is right up there with Allen as an elite QB.

 

Yes, Miami has Hill & Waddle. Unfortunately they have Tua throwing him the ball. Quite different when Burrow is throwing to elite receivers.

 

Saying a guy coming off major surgery will struggle covering elite receivers isn't some earth shattering news. Most healthy, and elite, CB's would struggle against this group.

 

We can't afford to go down by ten points early and rely on Allen to play superman again. To win, this needs to be a team win. D, ST's, coaching, and offense. 

I keep hearing about how Burrow figures out defenses and then attacks. Well get up on them early, stuff the run and hope the Greg, Lawson and Olive oil can do something. I'm hoping Phillips is ready. D. Jones may get some.

 

The weather is another thing. The Bengals backs are big but I think are 3. something, no more. Hopefully 3rd and longs will give us a chance. I think Diggs takes this game over. He is due.

 

Devin and Cook, Bease and Shakir....Davis and Diggs. I like our chances with Dorsey getting his freak on. Hopefully,McFrazier doesn't have to wait till the ole halftime regroup to get their **** together....like all too often.

I don’t need to go out on a limb to explain the O-line’s improved performance when given the opportunity. Dorsey has started to balance the offense with his play calling. Last week is an example. Cook is effective when given the touches and Motor has 800 yd in a little over 200 carries. Factor in Josh’s yds and I could see them rushing for 120-150. These O-lineman can run block with the threat of Josh’s vertical pass attack. Once our RBs started getting the opportunity, there were running lanes.

The cool thing is that we run block better than pass pro and that wears or gasses a Defense down, especially late. Hopefully we move the chains early, hit Diggs and Davis deep, then grind them through the 2nd half. Thurman said today they should bring back the draw play and I agree, and I'd also like to see the counter Tre to the outside. I think it's time for Brown to mow the lawn.

 

I trust Dorsey more than I trust Frazier. I like a coach who gets pissed.

Makes you wonder why they almost lost to a lousy patriots team last week are not blowing anybody out and lost of the teams like the Browns and the Steelers oh, and they don’t have wins over anymore than four teams above 500 this year

Personally I’m shocked that he isn’t dominating in his first couple of weeks back from an ACL. Nah not really. This should provide Tre some excellent motivation. That’s good for the Bills.

No surprise at all.  That’s why I told people to calm down when they were upset he wasn’t playing yet.  It’s gonna be a minute before he’s back to himself, probably next season.  But he still manages to be in position and make a couple plays here and there along the way.

That Cinn. Defense looked like they were gagging up a big lead in the 4th qtr. against NE until that  clueless official didn’t whistle the play dead until the fumble,even after Stevenson got moved back 3 yds.. Is this the same defense that gave the low scoring Bucs a 20 pt lead in the 1st half before Brady decided to try and set the turnover record for one half of football. You should watch the Cinn. defense play instead of listening to Chris Simms. shortchange the Bills offense.

Elam, Jackson and Hamlin.   Big game

I have no idea what Simms said.  I wasn’t commenting on that.

That’s the thing. Simms doesn’t post garbage. He defended Allen when no one else would. He defended the Bills when people were calling the 2020 team a fluke. He has been very pro-Buffalo.

he hasn’t been the absolute shutdown corner that he was from 2019 - Thanksgiving of 2021.

 

 The Bears’ one long completion on Saturday was at his expense.  He turned around and found the ball nicely while it was in the air, then for some reason turned his head back towards the WR and became a spectator.   Not good.

 

I think he’s still rounding into form, but it’s good to see hin back out there despite some struggles.

This play, it was Elam’s man coming from the left all the way to right side of the field where Tre was playing. This was not Tre’s guy, hence why he tried making a play (and missed). He was being reactionary to a play that wasn’t his responsibility.

That’s the thread, Simms guaranteed the Bills would not be able to run against Cinn. Defense.

[Nephilim17]

Ok, I watched the video and here are some other things Simms said:
 

• Bengals will not run well on the Bills either
• The Bills zone D could give problems to Cinci and Burrow
• Simms called McDermott and Frazier geniuses or something to that effect
• Simms calls the Cinci pass offense "simple" and not in the best way
• It could be low scoring; Simms doesn't know the line but would take the under
• White, Simms says, is NOT 100% — this goes a long way to mitigating the outrage of some here

So this was not a dump on the Bills at all. Just some quotes without full context. Simms is likely still on for his next bromance get-together for tacos and beers with Josh (though he'll never get more than a hug at the end).

 

Relax, people. The media doesn't hate us as much as we think.

because Bills run game is a mirage. Padded by QB freak of nature who can run like no other.

 

and padded stats vs three of the worst run D's in the league in Lions Browns Bears.

 

they probably will run for 250 now vs Bengals...lol......if Cook keeps cooking.

Bills have the 4th best rush defense in rush yards per game.....cinci is 7th...so maybe cinci won't be able to run on Buffalo

The Bills front will dominate the Bengals O-line especially with Lael Collins out for the year. Judson and Uche pushed them around in their game last week in NE. They.will probably play mostly zone and try and limit the receivers to yardage between the 20s and hold them to FGs, It should be high scoring and Josh will find a way late.
