Cards 17

 

Cards get an early 7-0 lead but Buffalo goes into half up 13-7 on the back of an Allen TD to Knox and a Gilliam TD run from the goal line (Bass misses the extra point). The Bills get the ball out of half and get a TD on a 6:30 min drive which Shakir does his thing on a nice 30 yard TD, but the Cards come down field and get a FG to make it 20-10 heading into the fourth. The offense again gets a lengthy drive but it stalls and Bass hits a 41 yard FG to make it 23-10 with 9 mins to go. The Cards hang around as they score on a McBride TE on 4th down with 5mins left to close the gap to 23-17. The offense is able to run the clock out and the Bills win a close game that has the locals feeling a little nervous after.

 

Allen 303 yds 24-34 2 TDs 15 yards rush

Cook 72 yards 14 att

Shakir 91 yards 8 rec 1 TD

 

Groot 2 sacks

Love this... I feel like I dont even need to watch as this is totally what could happen... LOL I am serious.... I think we have some struggles in this game, I think its only a smidgen in doubt but not one of those lay back and watch the a$$ whoopin games either.  And Bass totally misses something he shouldnt.

Not a dominant performance, defense makes a late play to hold them off.  A win is a win.

 

Agree.   

 

With our WR room, I'm not expecting receivers running open all over the field.  And with our OL, I'm not expecting Josh to repeatedly stand untouched in beautiful, clean pockets scanning the field for 4 seconds  before choosing which open receiver to throw to.  Brady will do some interesting things but he won't (yet) have anyone thinking we have the next Don Coryell or Bill Walsh running our offense.   But there will be enough good things going on - starting with Josh - to score in the high 20s.  

 

Defense will be solid because McD is good at scheme and getting guys to execute their roles and communicate.  But there just isn't enough talent on the D to hold a healthy Murray and the Cards to two scores or less.

Bumping back to page 1.  Still missing a few.  @Virgil, @BillsFan619, @Ridgewaycynic2013 where you at?


Crap, sorry. I didn’t even see this. 
 

Cardinals 31

Bills 13

 

Murray reminds everyone what he can do with offensive weapons, and he shows off with the best new one in the league.  Scrambling all around our line, Hamlin reminds us just how out of position he can play and gets torched multiple times. 
 

Josh has a decent game, throwing for over 300 yards, but can’t find anyone to step up in the red zone.  Cook turns it over twice in the red zone, while Bass missed a chip shot before halftime, setting the tone for the rest of the game.
