Beast Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) If the Bills d-line lays an egg against the Bengals our GM may be under the microscope for all the high draft picks and salary cap space he has spent on that unit. There is no reason we shouldn’t see a strong performance and anything less will be a big organizational failure.

JohnNord Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 It’s looking like 3/5 starters are going to be out this game and while the Bills might not have a dominant pass rush without Von, it’s certainly a matchup they can easier than they could with the starters. Also to people saying that the injuries aren’t a big deal… I would disagree. They could only score 1 TD in the second half and Burrow was dumping the ball off short because he knew the line couldn’t hold up long. Granted, a better DL in Baltimore but still… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruffalo Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Can't wait to watch the Bills get held all game and never have it called. This happens when you don't have superstar NFL talent on the D-Line: You'll get less holding calls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatdrinks Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Imagine the consternation on this board if the Bills were in this situation? Might as well not play the game or things along those lines. As for the Bengals ? No big deal they’ll be fine and the Bills can’t take advantage.

A microscope by some in the fan base on Twitter and message boards maybe…Beane has one of the most coldest GM seats in the NFL. He’s done an excellent job building the team 2 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we'll see if my theory that injuries matter and "next man up" is largely garbage (ie: backups are way worse than starters in today's NFL, esp on the OLine). Although they went to the SB with a crap O Line last year, this wave of injuries is big and should make a difference in the game, Hope Frazier has some stuff ready to go . Do you know something we don't? Nobody is ruled out yet. In fact, they are saying they will most likely play as they are week-to-week currently. Tasker said today that he thinks it's "table talk" and they will play. I tend to agree. Cincy is a DIRTY team, dirty franchise. We will crush them! 9 minutes ago, Beast said: If the Bills d-line lays an egg against the Bengals our GM may be under the microscope for all the high draft picks and salary cap space he has spent on that unit.

gjv Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Last week I was hoping for a big game from our front 4 because Miami had starters out on their Oline. It never materialized, we had to blitz to get pressure on Thompson. Hopefully, this week our front 4 delivers.

colin Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 if 3 starters are out, or worse (for them) should be out but suit up anyhow, then we will be smacking burrow something fierce. they'll truck us on a few drives, and we'll make some really billsy things happen of course, but the d was straight up on tilt on sunday and will be riding that forwards 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stlbills13 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 It's certainly helpful but the Bengals can also gameplan all week so they will be well prepared. Burrow can also run it a little bit if you don't get pressure up the middle so I think this is a massive game for Oliver 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
