Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 The best shot for the Bills is to change Darby's number before every series, so Luck can't find him. If it's not illegal, that sounds like something the Patriots would do. Darby and Gilmore have similar hair. Just have them switch jerseys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are accountable for stopping the run and for "containing" the passing game to a degree... but "stopping" the passing game is not going to happen in this game. Luck will throw some touchdowns. This will happen. They should have already accepted that and realize the onus is actually on the offense. There should be good to great matchup to be had us on offense and they need to take advantage of those instead of crying about Darby. Sustain drives and keep him off the field instead of relying on the defense. Edited September 7, 2015 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Honestly, I think this is going to be an interesting matchup. I think our DBs look to be outmatched, but both their O-line and D-line look to be in shambles. I honestly think we can shut down Gore with 6 in the box. And with Jones out and Tyrod a running threat they'll need at least 8 men in the box at all time. I'm liking the matchup more and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Chris Polian was fired as GM (and Bill left as a result though it was spun differently) they cleared out some of Polian's scouts. The one guy irsay kept from the Polian regime was Director of Pro Personnel/asst GM Tom Telesco. Telesco was in fact in line for the GM job which they ultimately decided to give to Indiana native Grigson. Telesco had been with the colts for 15 years - from college scout to pro scout and on up. He was in charge of the draft for the last few years he was there. Any draft recommendation came from him and his scouts. Grigson got there sometime in January 2012. The draft evaluations/board were already set save for any last minute tweaks from combines, workouts, interviews. Hilton was recommended by Telesco and the entire body of scouting work done to that point. Grigson's name is on the pick for timing and title only. The report that Pagano will be the one to lose this power struggle is alarming. Irsay is unfit to run the team if that happens.

The Bills are capable of shutting the Colts offense down and their defense is far from scary. Remember the Colts only managed 7points against NE in the Championship game, and only 7 against the Cowboys late in the year on the road. The managed 17 points against Houston late in the year at home. None of those defenses are a good as Buffalo's. Frank Gore gives them a theoretically better running attack, but that really does remain to be seen, especially with Gore's high mileage. I do not expect Pagano to outcoach Rex in the O vs. D game. The Bills at home on opening day, in Game 1 of Ryan's Buffalo tenure, favors the Bills. I like Buffalo to win this game, and perhaps big.

DallasBillsFan1 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Luck and the Colts 1st O Line looked suspect against Chicago in preseason week 2. Chicago's D won the line of scrimmage consistently and put LOTS of pressure on Luck. Granted, it was preseason but perhaps telling .... ? If Buffalo can take care of the ball, I think Bills get the win. HUGE game ... we need that conference win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they look good and definitely could beat us. But I keep hearing them as Superbowl contenders, but their run defense and o-line look possibly even worse than last year. You can win a lot of games on Luck's arm and mop up bad teams...but I feel like against physical teams that may be outmatched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
