And we are missing top CB (Tre), our top DT (Oliver), a solid run stuffing DT (Settle), and plus our #2 WR (Davis). I am nervous about this game, as usual. I am nervous before every game.

offense - Knox Defense - Edmunds

None of this was true last year. We are a pass first team and wind and rain hurt us last year. Maybe this year will be different.

The 9 on pass blocking seems too low. He cannot block Donald 1 on 1, no one can do that consistently. The plan was to give Bates help, slide right and force Donald inside and then either Moss or Singletary was there to chip him and slow him down. Josh was going with a planned quick release and it really worked.

They are looking two weeks ahead. Never good in the NFL.

What do you mean weak corners? Are you talking about low years experience? Why are you calling them weak? What is "lower" safety help and how does it effect the DL? Do you mean less safety help? Or do you mean bring Poyer down into the box? It all starts with the DL. A strong Bills pass rush will force the Titans to slow the game down by running Henry more and try to keep our offense off of the field. That could be countered by adding a 3rd LB in place of the Nickel back. Also expect to see Shaq Lawson dressed to help set the edge on running downs. I think we will see what more stout DT's, like Settle and Jones, can do for us against a strong running team. I think we have the players to match up physically. Smart substitution and execution are needed, as always. Agree, if the offense is clicking and scoring we should be ok.

Not at all. He is saying its still a game, keep fighting.

Last year lots of people were not worried about Pittsburgh, Jacksonville, and Pats*. Every game has challenges and requires preparation and execution, not to mention a bit of good luck here and there.

I like seeing Trubisky play well.

Talent, coaching, preparation, and time together as a unit - a combination of all of it

TJ Watt with two amazing plays back to back. First a tackle for loss on a run. Second one was a pick on the Pass rush. wow.

Burrow under a lot of pressure. Pittsburgh defense is playing in Cincinnati backfield

I want to see Hill struggle all season, which means Tua struggles, which means Miami struggles. I really don’t like Hill in a Tom Brady kind of way.

Steelers defense having another strong opening day on the road. Burrow under pressure.

There were more upgrades to the defense. Both new DTs, Daquan Jones and Tim Settle, will help clog the middle and allow the LBs to make tackles. Shaq is a DE that plays strong against the run. No evidence yet, but the Bills did make some moves to improve and be more stout against the run. As mentioned, play with a lead and make these teams throw. That is a key.

So no Beasley contributed 5 receptions out of 7 targets, 2 interceptions, and 1 TD? Just a thought. I think we will be fine with Crowder/McKenzie in the slot.

McDermott is awesome. Love this team.

VICTORY FRIDAY and it feels good.

I am ecstatic about beating the SB Champs in their house on the season opener. Dominant win, but not perfect on the offense with the turnovers. Overall a great start.

65 Toss Power Trap.

Why not?

This makes sense.

It starts the morning of the game and stays there until the first hit, first play.

Oliver, Milano, Knox, Davis are all good choices. Whoever lines up on Darnold needs to bring it. Our pass rush needs put on constant pressure to help the young corners.

What about playoffs and maybe a SB? How does this help?
