There's dumb, and then there's really dumb

OK, I don't expect the Bills to hire a rocket surgeon to write articles for them, but this may be about the dumbest thing ever written:

. . . Buffalo has to keep drives alive to not only finish them with points, but more importantly to keep the ball out of the hands of Peyton Manning and the Broncos offense. . . .

 

So it's more important for the offense to win time of possession than to score points? Really?

When the final score is 3-0 Bills and a 3:1 TOP ratio to boot, that guy'll be laughing all the way to the bank. You'll see. Just wait.

How do you get that box before the title like that?

LoL! Exactly what I was thinking.

 

1981... Broncos @ Bills... Bills win: 9-7.

 

Take that! Chuck Knox baby!

We can take all day to score 3. If they score 7 every time we're in trouble. I love our D, and I'd like Peyton to have a very unpleasant day. I don't hope to maim, but I'd like to see his back up as well.

I get the theory

 

But we need long drives with tds and we need to have last possessions before half and game with scores

 

A 10 min drive that scores 3 at the end of the half might be worth it if it doesn't give manning two chances to score (two drives because we can't move the ball)

At the risk of sounding really dumb myself I actually agree with that strategy. I've always thought one of the best ways to beat a good QB was to not let him on the field. It worked well for the Giants in SB 25.

Sad part is that I've had more confidence with our D's chances of scoring lately than our Offense.

You make a good point. Jerry Hughes has had more touchdowns in the month of November than Sammy.

Actually the Bills have to stop CJ Anderson tomorrow. He has been their best player the past couple of weeks and they are riding his cotails.
