Flbillsfan#1 Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 If this happens, it will be a horrible season for sure!! Buc fans are saying the same thing. Lose to the Bills & it will be a horrible season. I think both teams go about 8-8.
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Romo beat the Bucs with some BIG PLAY BOMBS for TD's. The next time Trent does that it will be the 1st time he does it. The Bucs are as good as the Bills. They have a good O-line, good WR's, good RB's, good D-line, & good LB's. I expect a close game the Bills 21-17 HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE..........................MAKE SOME NOISE GUYS. I agree. I watched a lot of the TB-Dal game and it was closer than the score indicated. TB has a very solid running game and that benefits them against the Bills. Leftwich looked pretty good as well. They have lightweight d-linemen (similar to ours) and their secondary is a weak spot. Can Trent exploit it? I see this being a complete toss up game with a total of 38 - 44 points being scored.
Rayzer32 Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 I actually think the Bills will control this game. Leftwich isn't what he used to be, which was never anything extrodinary anyhow. Tampa's only real threat seems to be an overhauled Cadillac. Buffalo 34- 13
BuffOrange Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 The Bills tend to play down to their competition. That's not really true.
BuffOrange Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 ROMO lit up the bucs. if trent has 3 tds with 200 yards i will be happy. But Trent isn't nearly as bad as Romo. Or I read that somewhere around here.

Tampa's only real threat seems to be an overhauled Cadillac. Buffalo 34- 13 Which could go a long way against the Bills by having sustained drives. The Bills should beat a team in rebuilding mode with a rookie HC but it won't be as easy as many here seem to think. Niners anyone?

Tampa's only real threat seems to be an overhauled Cadillac. Buffalo 34- 13 Leftwich is Bledsoe. Give him time & he will pick you apart. As I said the Bucs have a good O-line & receivers, including the tight ends. I hope the Bills blitz more in this game, the Bills will have to get after Leftwich.

IMO Leftwich and their WR's aren't any good, so I could see this being our annual "get an early lead on special teams and pounce on a team that can't play from behind when the crowd gets into it" home game. If it's close midway thru the 2nd Qtr it'll probably be a dogfight though. Hey is anyone else WTF @ only having 2 RB's right now? Not that I have a problem with Omen getting a few carries in relief, but if Freddy gets dinged up we're kinda screwed there, no?
evilbuffalobob Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 The Cadillac is back on the road. I recall the Bucs running it all over Buffalo's ghetto last meeting (in Tampa).
BuffOrange Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 yah that was week 2 as well. No Lawyer Milloy to run over this time though.
Big Turk Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Your kidding right? The Bills basically manhandled the superbowl favorites. This is a good dam team. For one watch the dam game and you will see this team is for real. The first few weeks of the season anything can happen, and it does not always tell the story of how teams will end up in many cases. The Bills played well, but they still lost. That is the whole problem, they ALWAYS lose these games. Good teams do not lose games like that, period. Is it any surprise the teams that suffered the crazy, devastating end of the game losses this past week were Buffalo, Oakland and Cincinnati? Funny how New England, Indianapolis and Pittsburgh never seem to have that kind of thing happen to them...
Big Turk Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Nice to know that being a blind cheerleader who thinks the Bills are better than every NFL expert in the world thinks they are is what makes a person "look smart". I had no idea... Isn't it amusing how the Bills went from this years Arizona Cardinals as recently as August and making the playoffs for the first time in a decade to now being the worst team in football? And that is because they fired an OC that was so bad he couldn't hold that position for most college teams, and got rid of a player who likely would have failed miserably in extended duty at LT? Well, on both fronts, the "experts" look to be wrong. Van Pelt called a pretty good game against the biggest "genius" in the NFL, and the O-Line played very well overall and at times were manhandling the Patriots DLine... However, what is being completely missed by the "experts" and many posters as well it seems, as that Jauron's style of play basically ensures him he is going to be right around .500 every year. He plays to take games down to the final minutes, and it works about half the time(or a little less), and it doesn't work about half the time(or a little more). This team has talent on it. Sorry to point that out to you. Everyone who is sitting around acting like we have last years Detroit Lions, Oakland Raiders, Kansas City Chiefs, or St. Louis Rams talent base is simply delusional. We don't have as much talent as the elite teams in the league---no question about that, but we have more talent than a lot of teams. Jauron minimizes our talent because of his coaching and putting the players in position to fail rather than to succeed. Most coaches maximize their talent, ours minimizes his... I am not a blind cheerleader, nor am I a member of the media's Hugely Overreacting Bandwagon. It makes no sense at all to think this team suddenly went from what many people were saying is a team capable of winning 9-10 games to a team that is now a 0-4 win team due to firing a crap OC and getting rid of a starting LT that was much better suited to play RT. Personally I think we finish a game in either direction of what we were last year, but in all reality are a much better team, especially by the end of the year when our revamped O-Line starts dominating defenses...
K-9 Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 How the HELL did Tampa Bay run for 173 yards and LOSE? That is mind-boggling. With the loss of Poz and knowing that TB has a solid OL, they better find a way to stop that running game or it will be a LONG day for our D. GO BILLS!!!

Not that I have a problem with Omen getting a few carries in relief, but if Freddy gets dinged up we're kinda screwed there, no? You are mistaken about their WR's. Antonio Bryant, Michael Clayton & 7th rnd pick Sammy Stroughter are not TO & Evans, but they aren't too shabby. Kellen Winslow & Jerramy Stevens are better than the Bills TE's. Say what you want about Leftwich, he can throw the deep ball, so I think they can play from behind.

Stroud may end up playing 90% of the snaps.
Big Turk Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Cadillac and Ward will be tough to contain. Stroud may end up playing 90% of the snaps. Our run D is usually pretty solid...I think they will get a few good runs in, but nothing too big...
DanInUticaTampa Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Yeah, Tampa's run game is a beast. But their D is slow and gets tired after the 1st quarter.
Flbillsfan#1 Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Yeah, Tampa's run game is a beast. But their D is slow and gets tired after the 1st quarter. That was LAST YEAR. THIS YEAR they have a bunch of young FAST guys on Defense. They are still learning & gave up the big play to Dallas, but they were not tired.
RockPile007 Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 That was LAST YEAR. THIS YEAR they have a bunch of young FAST guys on Defense. They are still learning & gave up the big play to Dallas, but they were not tired. Good point. I think this is the game Trent hooks up with Evans for a deep ball. You can kill Tampa with the long ball. Inexperienced back there.
Big Turk Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Bills are heavily favored by Accuscore...
