Yeah Allen is tough too. As is Cooper.  It’s a solid front and Joseph has been excellent on coordinating pressure all season.  
 

but our Allen is better-  hopefully the OL can play like they have all season

I'm hoping pass pro can just hold steady, tbh if they play really well I don't see how Denver keeps up

 

I think getting quick pressure to Allen is really their only shot in keeping it close

I'm not sure what you consider a "household name" but you just dont watch the Broncos. He has 13.5 sacks (in his 3rd year) and leads the team with the most sacks in the NFL. Just because you don't know someone doesn't mean they aren't a household name. What you're actually saying is "If the media doesnt tell me about him, I don't know him" because if you were an avid football/NFL fan, you'd know this guy's name.

 

What a very odd comment. lol "ehhh if i dont know him then he aint nothin" .. good grief

Franklin-Myers worries me because of how scummy he was against us with the Jets. 

You clearly do not know the definition of household name.  People who are not avid nfl fans still know the household names.  This isn't rocket surgery.

Dion will handle him.  He’s a multiple time pro bowler and has been nothing less than stellar.  Agreed with New Era he’s formidable, but Dion has faced that before.  Besides Josh is one of the least sacked guys in the league as he evades pressure.

 

He can also put on the cape if he needs to do it as he’s incredible in the playoffs.  A heck of a better than Lamar.  His playoff record is atrocious.

The Broncos beat nobody of note this season and got lucky the Chefs sat their starters.  Bonito is a fabulous young player, they have a nice roster building and when the Wilson drag is off their, they will be a contender. 

 

Just play Bills football and don't turn the ball over, this should be a nice win.

Teams take Parsons out of the game by running at him. I do believe Bonitto is much better against the run than Parsons but yeah, you test him early so he can't run up field without repercussions. I'd be surprised if we don't establish that early. Some tackle pulls to him/ away from him, some 2 TE to his side, etc etc. 

Correct me if I’m wrong (like that wouldn’t happen anyway), but in that Cowboys game didn’t we do just the opposite? Didn’t the Bills run away from Parsons? So he was just chasing from behind all game.

Ok, so, people who aren't avid NFL fans don't know a guy who has 13.5 sacks? Interesting. So just who the media tells you about? 

 

So a guy who is THIRD in the NFL in sacks, isn't a household name? Damn, I guess I really don't know the meaning of household name  

 

He also says he IS an NFL fan (or considers himself one). Apparently that's rocket surgery or whatever weird innuendo you used.

No, we ran right at him.

Household name at DE, Myles Garrett, TJ Watt, almost Aiden Hutchinson but not quite.  This hockey player we speak of...no.  Or like, whatever man.

Watched the first minute of this, they ran away from Parsons.

there are 7 plays there.... 1 we ran at him(toss play 3)  , 1 we used him as a read option (play 5) , 1 we trapped right off of him and ran underneath him(play 7), 1 we ran away from him, and the others were pass.... what is this proving? lol

Bonito is ranked 21st among Edge Defenders, Rousseau is 12th and Von is 15th.  

 

Maybe they should worry about us...

“The Bills ran this play over and over again throughout the game, and the Cowboys couldn’t stop it. Here, Buffalo moved the running back to the opposite side of the QB so they could attack the weakside linebacker — who happens to be a converted safety and undersized. They left Parsons unblocked to put him in a predicament on whether or not to crash down on the running back or stay wide and play the QB keep. This allowed the Bills to devote other blockers play side and take Parson out of the play without even blocking him.” This is the quote describing the play they ran away from Parsons, from the analysis of all 22 on Buffalo Rumblings. You and another poster said they ran at Parsons all day, that was clearly not the case. It clearly says they ran away from him “over and over again. That is what it proves.

13.5 sacks! Bonitto is electric and fun to watch. Thankfully schnowman kept Josh clean last year. Bonitto and Allen had no sacks (I can’t recall how much pressure they got). Just need to play turnover free and we should be good

Very important for sure.

 

However, getting off to fast starts in these playoffs is the single most essential in my mind.

Might be brain science, though. 

 

NFL fans know who Bonito is already, but no, he's not a "household name" yet. 

 

@Bills!Win! kind of got this whole thing rolling, of course, with: "I would consider myself an nfl fan. I have never heard of nick Bonnito. Must mean he’s not a household name yet"

 

Bit of a logical leap there ("I don't know who he is, therefore he must not be massively famous") that left room for us to have all this fun so far.

I'm not going to call my mom (someone who doesn't follow sports) and ask if she knows who he is.  I already know the answer.  Aka, not a household name.

 

I guarantee she knows who Michael Jordan is.

What odds will you give me that she doesn't IMMEDIATELY know who he is, exactly? 

 

Let's handicap this.
