Like every other game this season, this team makes you nervous. They let the opponents hang around. The Bills do get the ball back at the beginning of the 2nd half.
This is the same thing people said when the Brady led team kept winning games to make it to the SUperbowl in that first year. The disparity between winning and losing is pretty small and razor sharp. The team that has a better will makes it all the way. Pettine's team has demonstrated the ability to win those close games. May be Kyle Orton provides that same inspiration to our Beloved team that we were able to win the tough ones against Minnesota when the chips were down.
Brady is also one defensive stop or one offensive play from three SB losses. The Pats won all those SBs with a FG at the end of the game and beating the Rams when they stopped them at the 1 yard line.
Agree. The Bills have to go 4-0 in November as they themselves have a pretty Brutal schedule in December with games against GB, NE and Denver. If they go 4-0 in November and get the one win against Oakland, they will be 10-6.
This is a different Manning team. Their defense is playing lights out. They are #1 against the Run. They have the NFL sack leader in Von Miller not to mention bookend pass rushers. This defense was built to stop Brady in the AFC Championship and Seattle in the SB.
The question is will the Bills continue to follow the cash-to-cap policy. If so, I don't see how the Bills will be able to generate a ton of new cash to pay up front. The only way they restructure Mario would be to give his money upfront and spread it over the additional years. That requires upfront money, something only teams like Dallas and Patriots have.
I think he is a locker room leader. He is bonding this team together....something Mario or Kyle could not do. May be Kiko will step up and be that player.
Agreed. Hughes, Dareus, Spikes and Searcy will be FA. I don't how many of those we can re-sign. I think the priority would be Dareus and Hughes. BUt I think Spikes is the bonding player, brings toughness to the locker room, like a Talley.
