On to the JAGS

[TFBillsfan]

Great win by our Bills over the Dolphins. Now the focus shifts to the Jags who have weapons on offense and a D that the have Bills struggled against in the past.

 

Hopefully outside of Tre, everyone is healthy. Even though Von is back practicing I don’t expect he will active on game day for a few more weeks. Why rush it if we don’t need him right now.

 

Hoping the Bills D makes Trevor uncomfortable with pressure and shuts down their running game. Offensively, keep doing what you’ve been doing, play smart, physical and protect the ball. 

 

Lets not give Jax any hope and get out of England with a W.

I need another day to revel in that game and the Patriots smack down...I live in NE.  I need more than one day to move on.

It's a trap game.  They always play us tough and we are coming off a high.  This is an evolutionary step,we need to beat a team we should beat coming off a game like the fins.

It's not really a trap game. They are/were a play off team and the best team in their division.

All in favour of SoonerBillsFan changing their ID to 'Admiral Ackbar' say 'aye'.

Your weekly reminder that there is no such thing as a trap game, it’s figment of fan’s anxiety and the data prove it doesn’t exist.

 

That being said, Jags won their division last year and even if they didn’t there are MANY players on this team who remember losing to Jax when they sucked.

 

I don’t think this team over looks anyone. They are all business this year and it’s great to see.

 

I expect a closer game than Miami but we will take care of business. I’d like to see improvement on the D side in shutting down the run game better. On O, I expect more of the same balanced attack and Allen playing within the scheme.

Who has to step up for Bills after Tre'Davious White's Achilles tear?

espn.com/blog/buffalo-bills

 

 

Who's next at outside corner without White?

The top candidates to start without White are Benford and 2020 seventh-round pick Dane Jackson with Elam next in line to compete based on the start to the season.

 

Jackson started 14 games in 2022. He led the team last season in the most passes defensed as the nearest defender (12) and allowed just 1.6 yards after catch per reception as the nearest defender, lowest among the team’s cornerbacks who saw significant playing time. Jackson allowed a 62% completion percentage as the nearest defender (team average was 66.2%), three touchdowns and had two interceptions.

 

“I think when there's good competition it makes it hard, right? There's no free passes here,” McDermott said. “You got to know how to do things no matter where you're picked or what you're paid -- you've got to earn your spot. And just because [Elam] hasn't been active doesn't mean that we're not confident in Kaiir. We are extremely confident in Kaiir. To this point just a few players have outperformed him. So now is his chance.

We're all meeting at @GunnerBill's place... correct?

Any update on the injury status of Judon and Gonzalez. Last I heard they said they would miss some time but didn't know how much. That is a big blow to the Pats defense.

[WhitewalkerInPhilly]

I am still salty that we lost a home game and instead have to play a division winner in a different country, where they are the home away from home team, and who already have a week to prepare from the jet lag

Judon requiring surgery. Out at least two months.

Bills win this one soundly.  Jags are very pedestrian. 

 

AND, i'm going against the grain here, and saying the location is a disadvantage for the Jags.  Yes, they're familiar now with the stadium, etc., but being away from home that long messes with routine.  

 

Bills by 20.

[Heavy Kevi]

It's

 

Just

Another

Game

 

But it's across the pond in the land of no dentists. Jags have been chilling over there waiting for us. Neutral field.

 

I think we still get it done!

Just spitballing it...I would have thought they'd go over Sunday night or first thing Monday morning. More time to adjust for tme difference. Maybe they had no place to set up shop and practice Tues-Sat?
