lets_go_bills Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Every unit (O, D, ST) played incredibly well. But the two key stats we had in our favour, and that I find win you games is this: 1. Zero turnovers. 2. We won the time of posession battle. This is how/why you win football games. Great work Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ and crew did their stuff well today and credit is due to them. These boys were ready to play and despite a few hiccups in the 1st they came through.

The only complaint that can be made was the offence being slow to get going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lets_go_bills Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 Time of possession does not win football games. Um, it usually does. For example, in Week 1 there were 16 games. And of those 16 games, 13 of the 16 winners also won the TOP battle. And the three that didn't only lost it by 4 minutes or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphean Bills Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Special teams and the fact that Seattle had absolutely nothing on offense (and lost Morris and Burleson, the only guys that could do anything, during the game). Looks like it is going to be one brutal and long season for Mike Holmgren. Sucks for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, teams that move the ball better and have the lead for most of the game usually win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemhoff Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 No mistakes from the QB and good Oline play is going to win us a lot of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsaikotic Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 you can add in - - Seattles "cant punt for sh--" punter..man he sucked - Seattles "highschool" WR's dont read this wrong...Bills killed them in all aspects of the game...well running game could have been better... but I still want to see what they do against a healthy team...I did like Chambers play against Seattles best DE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
