Steely Dan Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 1. The starting offense has serious problems. I believe that once they score their first TD of the season they will find the endzone more frequently. The stops that happen before field goal range, are extremely worrisome. I really can't pin all of the offense's problems on TE, in fact, after the RB's, he's probably the best part of the O right now. 2. When TO comes back it should greatly help the O but having one player mean that much to the offense is a frightening thought. 3. If the Bills make the playoffs it will be on the backs of the defense. The starting D kept the Squealers starting O to 10 points. They look a lot better right now to me than they did at any time last year. It looks like Fewell has the D together and moving in the right direction. Bob Sanders is doing a good job with DL. 4. Aaron Maybin was double teamed from the first play he came in for and he still managed to get two tackles and a sack against the Squealers starting O. When Schobel comes back teams will have to choose who to double team. I believe the pass rush will be much better than it was last year. 5. Fitzpatrick looks like a legitimate backup QB. If Edwards gets hurt I won't believe the season is over like I did when JP was backing up Edwards. 6. They put forth a solid effort they were just playing a team out of their league right now. It seems they have all the pieces but the carbon hasn't been pressured enough to become a diamond yet. Hopefully that process will greatly progress as the season moves on. 7. If they can keep getting a little better with each game this year they could turn out to be a very strong team at the end of the year. If they are good enough to get into the playoffs they might even be a force. JMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 You're an optimist. And I mean, there's rightly no reason to give up before the regular season starts, but I don't know if it's possible for a healthy pre-season to be more discouraging than this monstrosity.

Thats with one extra game and one extra week of training camp. Just say no! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
