Marty McFly Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Sorry, "released Lawson" is the one I was laughing at. lol no doubt. Do you think they cut him cuz he couldnt 'cut it'? or because of suspension reasons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 What is the one big thing that worries you when the Bills steps on to the grass field in M&T Stadium. For me, it is the pass rush (or lack thereof). We have one Pass Rusher in Hughes who has had one phenomenal season and no one worth talking about on the other side. We don't have another 10-sack Interior lineman in Dareus. I don't know where Rex is going to generate the pressure. If he is going to his DBs to create the pressure, I see a long day for the Bills defense. I agree 100%. The answer is pass rush and it isn't even close.

Socal-805 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Who goes down 1st: o McCoy o T Taylor o Watkins o Clay o Cordy Glenn > or ... Marquise Goodwin ?? If he plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Defense. The offense is going to be fine. Can Kyle play DE? Can we stop the run without Mr. Big Puff? Will our LB's be any good as a unit? Will AW last more than a game? Will the Duke be the new Duke or the old Duke? CB is the only place on D where I'm confident. Defense will be fine. They actually know their assignments and what they are supposed to be doing on plays now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 At first I was like, and then I was like.... Now I'm like, you must be really fun at parties If you find yourself evaluating if people are fun at parties........then you probably are not fun at parties. Been around some of our homers here at tailgates and just like they B word about fans here they B word about them(and everything else) at the tailgate. And yes, there is a difference between criticizing a professional organization that hasn't even reached the minimum standard for a successful season once in 16 years and BITCHING about fans who still support them. My position is that this area is where you can achieve a more in depth football discussion.........if you gotta' B word at the tailgate you are just lazy or probably a B word by nature.

Nihilarian Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 If this year is anything like last years opener then Rex will have the Ravens offense thoroughly scouted and his defense prepared to play. The thing is that the Ravens see a very similar defense going against the Steelers 2x a year and they should be ready for anything. Pass rush is a key issue and this year's team can't be last in QB pressures again this year and be successful. If preseason stats have any meaning at all the Bills were #10 in total defense and the Ravens #9 and both teams had around the same amount of penalties. I look for the Ravens to throw a lot against a very good Buffalo secondary so turnovers could win this for the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Isn't the 3-4 the best formation to stop the run? In general, sure, but it ultimately comes down to the players. Missing Dareus, plus rookies Lawson and Ragland (both should make the defense more versatile) just makes me worry for our run defense early on. They did pretty well in pre-season, so we'll see. Otherwise, the next big question mark is the right side of the OL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Landing Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 For me, it's gotta be the front seven. It's a big bag of question marks. How will Lorenzo Alexander do opposite Hughs? How will Kyle bounce back from surgery? How much better will Preston handle communication? How well will Adolphus play? How much will we miss Dareus? Will our pass rush improve? Etc, etc...

BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Coaching is my biggest question mark. Two winning seasons in 7 yrs worries me as every season with his team they get worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I'll go with the middle of the field.... On defense, for a curveball. Last year we funneled things inside to some of our weakest guys. Added Ragland to fix it, and lost him. MD out. Will AW be as aggressive(or stay healthy?). Both runs and passes inside the box will be my question mark Otherwise, it's health with Sammy, clay, tyrod and McCoy. Need tyrod all season and 2 out of 3 of the others ready each game or the offense is going to be a big challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardcore Bills Fan Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 penalties penalties and more penalties. keep from giving up the big ones and we'll be alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt in KC Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 My biggest question is Kyle Williams. If Kyle is back to his old form (and can stay healthy) our defense may be very good. If Kyle appears to be in decline, the Bills will struggle, especially while Dareus is out. I want to see if the defense is in synch and fluidly playing Ryan's scheme. I saw signs this preseason, but it is hard to say with all of the absences. Last year's sack total (21) was pitiful for the talent on the team.

RevWarRifleman Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 My biggest is the obvious one : getting some sort of pass rush by the Bills D. Maybe we can do it by committee for this week & the first several weeks. A close second concern for me goes to all 3 squads: getting into double digit penalties for the game. Obviously, both of these issues are concerns all throughout the season. Go Bills. Without a doubt, it's the defense. The Ryan's have doubled down to prove the naysayers wrong. Good play on words.

BreezeMafia Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Yes a general answer but the play if the defense. Barring injury, the Offense will put up points consistently all year. 25+ against the Ravens, with Shady getting 2 TD's (selfishly for fantasy purposes of course).
