Armchair GM Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 GOOOOOOD Morning Bills fans!!! Man, am I amped up for tonight's pivotal match up against the Browns...who'd have thought? Looking at the 4 game stretch that follows this week, I must say, this is a must win! Cleveland is playing pretty damn well right now. Cinci was a huge win for them...BUT, Baltimore was even bigger for us...unfortunately, it actually helped Cleveland. I've been watching all the coverage and reading all articles...It's BS that Cleveland is getting soooo much attention as they seem to be featured far more than our boys. Anyway, I've keyed in on some make it or break it match ups... 1. Establishing the run...I'm a bit old school, so I love the fact that Hackett called 55 runs against Baltimore. It just sets the table for scoring drives, most evident on the Woods' T drive where we pounded the rock and opened up the seam. Well-orchestrated and a beautiful throw and catch. Now, Cleveland has proven to be pretty stout, though they've really only faced 1 dynamic back, Peterson. Props to Rice, but not in the same class as AP. Anyway, like the article in the last link (above) stated, Cleveland has a glaring weakness in their run D...Mingo. He'll be starting this week again because of injury. Hopefully Hackett has tuned in to this and will run the ball at him early and often. 2. Seems that a lot of people forget that SJ13 has a habit of making very good DB's look average. Not saying he's gonna blow Haden up, but he's got the chance to showcase why he forcefully changed the name of Revis Island...unlike that douche 'W'Hitner, who gave himself a nick-name...who does that? DUDE, you're not that good, #legendinhisownmind. Even if SJ doesn't light him up, who else do they have to cover Woods? 3. Don't forget about Little. I know we'll be keying in on Gordon and Cameron, but Little is no slouch. 4. Get to Hoyer. Nothing brings back an overachieving QB back down to Earth more than significant pressure. He's a Fitzpatrick type with the quick release and "gunslinger" mentality. We must get pressure up the middle with Dareus, Branch and the Williams'. They've got to get their hands up when they don't get a good push as Hoyer's passes come out low and hot. Here's to hoping that we see the necessary progress and we put together a more complete game...GO BILLS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Two long suffering franchises that now see just a glimmer of hope. Buffalo off of a win against the world champs. Cleveland 2-0 since they appeared to tank the season. There may be 11 games left after this one, but neither team has the talent to overcome a 2-3 start (in my opinion). The Bills will win if their defense steps up again. Time to nip Brian Hoyer's magic carpet ride in the bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaattMaann Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 its not as easy as "bring pressure and Hoyer will suck" - Cleveland has a good o-line and mcgahee is a terrific blocking back - we need the dline to win their 1 on 1s in order to get to Hoyer...keep kiko roving the middle, and jam cameron at the line.....hopefully mckelvin plays we need to be able to run the ball tonight, and in order to do that, we need to get clevelands from 7 out of the box on every 1st and 2nd down (throw early!!!!!!!) - and use their aggressiveness against them, could we finally see the return of our screen game? god I hope so....

smuvtalker Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Morning fellow Bills fans!! I am jacked for the game tonight! It will be nice to watch the game on my TELEVISION for a change, instead of watching the games on my laptop. I am cautiously optimistic about this game. I think the Bills have a very good chance to win this game. I expect a low-scoring affair, with the Bills prevailing 17-13. Let's go Buffalo!!!

On ProFootball Outsiders they rank Cleveland 26th in pass blocking http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/ol having given up 17 sacks. They allow a sack on average about 1 in every 10 or 11 drop backs... I wouldn't say that's great. I think it will be a tough game and low scoring but I don't think Cleveland's offense is the part to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bisonbrigade Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Keys to the game are, 1. Scott Chandler needs to be effective early so Cleveland safeties cannot be up on the line of scrimmage. This will open holes in the running game. 2. Mike Williams and Marcel Dareus need to put consistent pressure up the middle as Cleveland uses a west coast offense which uses 3 step drops. 3. Special Teams needs to come up with a big play, kickoff or punt return or recover a fumble. 4. EJ needs to target the WR not covered by Hadden, either Woods or Johnson. 5.Avoid self destruction, penalties and turnovers. Really, what are the chances that the Browns win three strait games with a journeyman QB? The Browns have given up 17 sacks this year already, look for that total to rise. Nobody circles the wagons likes the Buffalo Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quinnearlysghost88 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 The biggest key is reducing penalties. I can't tell you how many big plays we've had called back. It's to the point where I don't celebrate a big play until 5 seconds after it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floridabillsfan1 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I just watched the Browns versus Bengals game . First of all, the Bengals stunk up the place. I mean bad ! But I noticed when Hoyer was blitzed he cannot handle it very well. We should do fine against him. A lot of short passes and screens which our fast-paced defense is built for. Their defense will give us some problems especially in the run game. They are very good! But the secondary looks likes there is some holes in it and Robert Woods could have a great game. Let's hope. Go bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
