All_Pro_Bills Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 If the Bills they take care of the football and the offensive line gives Orton enough time to take advantage of WR/CB matchups the Bills will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 if i was a betting man, i'd pick the Bills to cover the spread. but that doesn't mean a victory. it's going to be low scoring and close. depends on who makes the most mistakes or big plays. if Jets win it will be by 3 points or less but if we play the way we are capable of playing then this should be a W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Cubed Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I think the game will be decided in the defensive secondary. I like the Bills receivers better and I like the Bills secondary better. I'd almost encourage the Bills to pass a lot. It'll wear down their DL and possibly open up the run game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills secondary hasn't been great either but from the little I've seen of the Jets they are just as bad. Plus, with Fred and CJ out and the Jets D-line, I think passing is the best option - if we can protect. I'm not going to say who I think is going to win because I don't want to jinx them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to say who I think is going to win because I don't want to jinx them We've had some success with a crappy line and EJ as QB against them, via quick passes. Hopefully we implement some quick routes and slants, and Orton can get rid of the ball in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filthymcnasty08 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) Spikes needs to make it his biz to hit Ivory hard and often and behind the LOS! We are terribly mistake prone and we need that to right itself. Their interior D-Line is NOT the issue with that team, and they scare me with our OG issue. I do not want to see Orton go down. Rexy always puts in a good effort against us in the Giants building. We must execute the offense without the turnovers and penalties! We will be a very good football team when we can do so.

BillnutinHouston Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Can a non-expert offer an opinion in this thread? I see this coming down to the Bills' ability to implement a short passing game and protecting Orton. If they can do those things, they win. Any word on Aaron Williams' availability yet?

uticaclub Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Rex is miles better than Marrone but we have more talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BmarvB Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) Coaching: Advantage Jets Talent: Advantage Bills Bills will need 20+ points to win this one. Anything less gives the Jets a good chance to win and save Rex's job for one more week. Edited October 22, 2014 by BmarvB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsoldier54 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) I think it all comes down to protecting the football. We have been terrible at that the past two weeks. If we gift wrap opportunities like we have the past two weeks, we could be in big trouble. Protect the football and we win easily. IMO it's as simple as that. We are the better team, talent wise, but that can be negated by turnovers as we saw last week. Edited October 22, 2014 by xsoldier54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloFan68 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I say we get our game going early this week & spank the Jets. With a good running game our Offense will put up some points plus our D is due to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevewin Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I think it all comes down to if the Bills are going to allow themselves to be pushed around and intimidated. The Jets always seem to out-physical us, which seems to be part of their game plan, and more times than not we've folded up like a soft chair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Normally I have been with Schwartz and his four rush strategy. This game I really think we need to blitz more because Geno is easily rattled. He can be good with all day to throw. We blitzed a lot early against the Vikes and it was working. When they lost two interior linemen I think Schwartz just figured our fearsome foursome would dominate. It gave Teddy some chances although not many. We need to pressure Geno. He will cough it up.

BUFFALOTONE Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Let's see....the Jets have had 10 days off after losing a close game on the road to a division rival. They have pretty much nothing to lose and are at home. I really don't hold high expectations here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brdigewater was 7 for 9 against the blitz. Not really sure it was working but I'd like to see some yardage stats for those plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
