BeavercreekBillsFan Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 4 minutes ago, Big Blitz said: Folks need to just accept the Bengals are scoring 27-34 points. This defense is a hot mess without Hyde, his back up, and Miller. More importantly, Oliver is not close to 100 percent. Neither is Poyer. And Philips being out is a big deal. It can be over come because of our O. So we need to take every possession as if we need 7 - Josh can’t slack and Dorsey needs to be on point. This is what I said but I was called a joe burrow simp. Bengals are scoring 35 points, just move and accept that. What have our DBs and Frazier done to make you think we can stop them? Josh has to be perfect this time. There are advantages there to be had. Eli Apple can be worked for sure but josh doesn’t have the kind of weapons that burrow has and I’m worried he’s going to be running for his life again with how bad our o line is and how good Hendrickson is. 8 hours ago, arcane said: We dont have the Ravens' D? Weren't they the worst pass defense through a fairly significant stretch of the schedule? Use your eyes and not just stats, they’re misleading. We don’t have a Marcus Peter’s or Marlon Humphrey or Kyle Hamilton. They match up way better with the bengals than we do plus they’re a division opponent. I’m glad you have confidence in frazier though. That’s a bold strategy. 1

They’re also down 3 (now maybe 4) linemen. This amazing offense only scored 17 last night, so they can certainly be stopped, I’m not saying they won’t put up 35, but they didn’t against worse defenses. I think they’re going to have to run a pretty quick hit offense and will have difficulty running the ball (as they have all year) which plays right into the Bills hands
K-9 Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Some fans should do themselves a favor and watch the Sunday afternoon matinee movie instead of the game next week. 3 1
Chaos Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 line is minus 4 on FanDuel. Ravens controlled Chase yesterday. And put pressure on Burrows. Aid the Bills defense can do the same the Bills should win easy.
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 My biggest fear is the physical short passing game the Bengals use with Chase, Higgins, and Hurst. They're big and look to gain YAC. Our secondary and LBs are for the most part not big, they need to have a really good game tackling.

The only teams that the Bengals have scored 35 or more points on all year have been the Steelers, Panthers and Falcons. All of their playoff wins last year came down to the final possession. Even with all those weapons and with how good Burrow is they don’t tend to blow teams out. You know that. 3 1

MasterStrategist Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 We're obviously not Bmores defense, but have some very good players of our own. I'd be watching what the Ravens do against that offense, it's one of few teams that have held them in check. Big part of that has been limiting Tee Higgins...and shutting down the run game. Hopefully Jordan Phillips is ready, we need all hands on deck for our dline to create havoc 2

Good observation about stopping their run game, too. That is paramount.

Hopefully Jordan Phillips is ready, we need all hands on deck for our dline to create havoc For all the criticism he gets, Frasier has been very good at limiting key offensive players this season. The issue with the Bengals is they can hurt the Bills in numerous ways - Chase, Boyd, Higgins, Mixon - rather than with one or two players. 2 1
Captain_Quint Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Eli Apple is their top corner back.... I think Diggs and Gabe are essential in this game. And if they keep both safties deep, Josh needs to use Cook and Motor underneath. I think Josh got all the jitters out this week and has a solid game this week without the turnovers. If we can limit Chase and Higgins, I think it's a Bills win at Home Edited January 16, 2023 by Captain_Quint 1
Justin C Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 So all the doom and gloomers from yesterdays post game thread won’t be watching since the outcome is obvious to them right? 2

We have an improving Tre White who is better than all those guys. We have a rookie first round pick that played well yesterday. Hopefully McD stops being conservative and starts Elam over Jackson and Benford. And Poyer is as good a safety as anyin the NFL. Though I must admit Poeyer has looked shaky dropping on coverage lately.

I’ll be as mad as everyone else when they trot Jackson out there Sunday and he gets torched at the catch point
stlbills13 Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Both teams will play better than they did yesterday. The Bills have to get some pressure on Burrow. I usually think this is overrated but I think the crowd can be a big factor in this one.
