VirginiaMike Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 In thinking about today's game, and the season in general, I think the what will impress me most and give me hope today is if the Bills come out and shut down the run without selling out 8 or 9 guys in the box. In the case of the KC game, if we hold them to under 100 yeard rushing, it will be a good sign. It will show that these Bills saw a hole in themselves and plugged it. Dareus and Barnett may be the keys to making this happen. What do you want the Bills to show that will impress you the most? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBeane Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I will be the most impressed if we can stop the run today and prevent them from winning the TOP battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offense is what concerns me most. If the offense gets rolling......that will impress me most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Things I'm looking for.... Pressure. Can we get in a qbs head? this changes the field, momentum and creates turnovers. I'll give up 100 on the ground if we can get 4-5 sacks and a lot of pressure/hits Protection- will fitz be able to have any semblance of a pocket. Route running- we have a lot of green players outside. How will Stevie handle being the guy, will the young guys oppositebe able to get any separation or make plays down field.

If the offense gets rolling......that will impress me most. i'm in this room right here. i would be really impressed if we can get a solid all around offensive game going. including contributions from the tight end(s) as well. defensively, i would be impressed with a good run d and some pressure by the front seven.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 A win!! Agreed a win impresses most. Stout run d, success throwing without Evans, and Spiller emergence are all additional keys I am dreaming about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 (edited) I all ready fully expect the defense to dominate. The offense is what concerns me most. If the offense gets rolling......that will impress me most. I think this is an above average to very good D when healthy. Making it through the game healthy (especially merriman) will be the big thing no one mentions here. I agree on the offensive side. I worry that the passing game will blow and in turn kill our running game, and in turn leave our d on the field forever. If they can have some luck in the air this team should win a few games. I don't think we are good enough to impose our will when running, so we must be balanced. We have a lot of question marks to accomplish that (our tackles, fitz, our TEs, and all the WRs have things to prove) Edited September 11, 2011 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 A win that leaves no doubt. This team we are playing today was a playoff team last year. You want to turn some heads, beat a playoff team convincingly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's week 1, on the road, against a playoff team from a year ago... go and beat them. I don't care how..convincingly, ugly, luckily... it doesn't matter just find a way to win!
