ClarenceH Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 In preparation for next week – some thoughts First, I cannot remember when the Bills were a dog at home (9 points?) seems a bit steep. Second, Brady & Pats are playing out of their minds at least of offensive side – must keep him off the field -translate this to Bills winning TOP (35 min +) and rushing 30-35 times (175-200 yds?). There has been an absence of meaningful special team play (not only in Bills games but league-wide). Obviously, KO and KO returns quickly come to mind but I see very few games turning in this area. It would be nice if we win the ST battle vs. Pats in a decisive way. Lastly, pray for rain and wind in the 35 mile hour range – gotta keep Brady one deminsional.
PromoTheRobot Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 A dog at home? Like every week before this year! PTR
Dorkington Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Bills are always underdogs. And we always will be until we finish the season with winning record, and a few victories against proven teams. Until then....
miserable_fan Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I'd say a 9 point spread is fair...
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I think we need to show them a Billy Cheat like alignment with not a single man with hands on the ground. Than rotate bringing force from different guys and utilize your DE and OLB to chuck their TEs and that little prick so they cant get off the LOS.
D521646 Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Unless our guys are really in shape, the no huddle is going to sting us big time, I fear. Tim-

ETD66SS Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) Bills have to prove they can beat NE, all the wishful thinking of the fans the positive talk from the players & coaches means nothing. If they beat NE next week, I'll start to consider them a good team. It's time for them to become a real NFL team, we'll see what happens. I'm hoping for the best, but due to recent past, I'm expecting the worst. Edited September 19, 2011 by ETD66SS

I've been going to games since 1960 so I've seen evrything but home field is home field - when a flawed Bills team is on the field against a very, very good team we need every edge we can get ....

Brady has great record in foul (mostly snowy) weather. Windy wet football does not favor this Bills team--I want the weather to be perfect for Fitz to continue his air attack.
