I do not believe Jacksonville can score on us with that beat up line. Now their D may be tough, but they'll have zero offense. Just look at how bad their running & passing games were last week against Tennessee. This will be a low scoring game. Bills (win outright)/under.

King must be on drugs. No way possible we are going to lose to a team decimated by injuries.

That is stupid. He says nothing about Jags injuries nor Bills impressive debut. He has Bills losing by 14 points, the 2nd largest margin this week. Guy is obviously confused, in the Hawks - 9ers game he says "See above. Substitute "Mike Holmgren'' for "Jack Del Rio." He's referring to his comments on Bills-Jags, only problem it's below not above in his table!

14 points is now a mile?

 

there are a lot of Bills fans that need a reality check if they think this game is a gimme

 

 

I don't billieve anybody said it is a gimme. We all just feel the Bills just deserve more credit than they have received from some media outlets, including Peter King.

I don't think any reasonable folks have called this game a "gimme" for the Bills. Myself, I believe the the Bills have a distinct edge in two of the three phases -- special teams (obviously) and their D vs. the Jags' O. I'll give the Jags' D a slight edge over Buffalo's O because we still don't quite know what to expect out of Schonert, and we know J-ville is physical.

 

I refuse to believe you can lose the entire middle of your OL and expect your offense will perform at a high level. That's what looks like a huge mismatch on paper, and that's why I'd take Buffalo and the points in a heartbeat.

 

I'm sorry, guys, I've tried to be as pessimistic and scared about this game as I can, and I just don't see an easy J-ville win.

I expect this game to be a field position battle with both teams struggling to move the ball. I look for Buffalo to come out very conservatively on Offense, trying to grind out yards and wear down Jax's D, while limiting mistakes. Jax's make shift O=line will struggle, while ours will wear down Jax's D line allowing us to run the ball more effectively in the 2nd half. Prediction Bills 23 Jax 10.

 

So shall it be written, so shall it be done!

That does not appear to be Turk's M.O. Even in the rain at RWS Sunday, against a top notch defense, he had Trent throwing from the outset. You're still thinking about the Fairchild offense.

My thinking is based more on how this game sets up, as opposed to the difference in our coordinaters. IMO the Bills should be able to limit Jax offensively, due to the strength of our D and the issues that they have on their O-line and IMO suspect WR's. Offensively I expect us to stay conservative and try to establish the run game, while not putting Jax's D in a position to put points on the board.

I understand, but disagree. I believe the mentality of this year's team is attack -- both offensively and defensively.

I also agree that to be really accurate with analysis and predictions, we need at least 3 weeks of action to review. I am simply making the best analysis I can based on the info I have.

 

But as far as Senor King, where he got the idea that the Jags are that much better than the Bills baffles me. As you said, there is only 1 week of data to go on. In that 1 week, what did JAX do to show that they are 2-touchdown favorites over our Bills? If I recall correctly, they gained 189 yards(only 33 of which were rushing) and surrendered 309 yards(137 of which were rushing). The Bills D is just as solid as(if not better than) the Titans', and the running game is most definitely better that the Titans'.

 

Where in those stats do you see a 14 point loss and giving up 30?

I think King and other "experts" are probably over-thinking things. They still seem to be using their pre-season analysis, possibly thinking that the Jags had one bad game and that they're really better than they showed at Tennessee, despite the OL injuries.

 

However, that's like saying your car will run just fine, even though the serpentine belt broke before you had 1,000 miles on it.

One game (plus preseason) does not a season make. EVERYTHING (well, not everything, but I've been saying it all week so it must be so) points to this being a game where our offense practices patience. If we get stupid we'll get beat.

I'm glad the Bills are being overlooked this week because I don't think that's going to be an issue for most of the year.

 

I don't think this is going to be an easy win by any means but do belive we will win a close one.

 

Who gives a crap what the talking heads think, I hope they keep underestimating us the rest of the season but if the Bills beat Jax, they will all be jumping on the bandwagon unless Lord Favre helps the Jets spank NE. If that happens, the Bills could find a cure for cancer in Jacksonville Stadium and all we would here about would be the Jets going to the Superbowl.

Just the same, if New England* wins, they will be all we'll hear about.
