  1. The Jets have one of the most dominant D-Tackles in the league in Williams, lining up against Saffold, arguably our weakest link on the O-line.  They also have 3 solid corners in Sauce, Reed and Carter.  Diggs and Davis will have to have solid games against what seems to be a top Jets secondary.  Without Hall, Jets offense is hot garbage, so this could be a low scoring affair.

    However...Super Bowl windows are almost never as long as people think they will be.  Cap issues, injuries, and overall league turnover every year can change the SB picture quite rapidly and frequently.  

     

     

    Prime example is Carolina, 7 years ago they were 15-1, they went from that gaudy record to 5 of the next 6 seasons with below .500 records.

  3. Eagles have played the 29th toughest schedule to date and have the weakest schedule in the league going forward.

     

    That being said, Dallas with a healthy Dak/Zeke at home will be a tough hurdle.

     

    Their other games against teams with a decent record are a pair with the Giants, and Derrick Henry and the Titans.

     

    Eagles are 28th in rushing defense in a yards per attempt [5.0] basis, so Barkley and Henry could be problems.

  4. QB -    Josh Allen

    RB -    Josh Jacobs

    FB -    Reggie Gilliam [better pass blocker & receiver than Ricard]

    WR1 - Stephon Diggs

    WR2 - Tyreek Hill

    WR3 - Devante Adams

    TE -    Chris Kelce

    LT -     Laramy Tunsil

    LG -    Joel Bitonio

    C -      Creed Humphrey

    RG -    Michael Onwenu

    RT -    Jack Conklin

     

    Teller would probably be the RG if he wasn't nicked up

  5. Anyone notice that the Bills have somehow put together a defense with first rounders Von Miller, Ed Oliver, Tremaine Edmunds, Kaiir Elam, Tre White [when he returns] and Greg Rousseau all starting, and Shaq Lawson in reserve.  Wonder if any other team in the league has 6 first rounders starting on D. The currently injured Xavier Rhodes is also a former first rounder.

  6. Our D-line is playing at a high level, If Bakhtiari is out, their O-Line is mostly JAG's or less - Rodgers will not have a lot of time to get his plays off.  Edmunds & Jones  have been playing well, which impacts the GB run game.  Hoping Eddie O is mending from his bum ankle. Be interesting to see if Tre White is active for this game even in a spot role.

     

  7. Not sure we can say this.

     

    We still have to play at CInci, H/A vs. the Jets & the Patsies. We do get the Packers and Vikings in the OP. We also get Miami at home the third weekend in December. There's a lot of chances to stumble.  Detroit on Turkey day is a trap game on a short week.  Hoping the worst of our injury woes are over.

     

    McD stresses one game at a time.

  8. Toughest matchups against GB appear to be OLB/Edge Rashaan Gary, who is their best player so far with 6 sacks, and will give Dawkins and probably a tight end or FB all they can handle. Gary has 11 sacks in his last 10 games, and is still on his first round rookie contract, so will be looking for Von type money in the near term; and their NT Kenny Clark against our guards, although Morse may help with this, may put a lot of pressure on the center of our O line.

    I don't know what the reason was, but once again they trotted this out the first 4 weeks and once again they sucked at it, possibly even worse than last year.

    They might get a mulligan on the Miami game, given the heat-related attrition of the OL that day.  Baltimore wasn't pretty, esp in the first half.

     

    Would like to see some semblance of a competent [non-QB] running game, even when we get out to a lead, if for no other reason to burn clock and force the opposing defense to pick their poison.
