reddogblitz Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 They're probably just thinking about the game 8 years ago with Brohm as the man under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 The Bills have a chance to shock the NFL world and make a statement this weekend. They have a pretty weak message board, because their fanbase is about as fairweather as it comes. All I can say Atlanta is remember where you came from. It wasn't more than 2 years ago when your team wasn't very good. Why so cocky now? https://boards.atlantafalcons.com/forum/45-talk-about-the-falcons/ It's just the fans...I'm sure the players are taking it seriously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebandit27 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Last week I was all over the Bills having a real shot to beat Denver. This week, I think Buffalo catches a beat down at the hands of an Atlanta team with too much firepower. Good defenses get run out of that building routinely, and I don't see Buffalo's offense being able to sustain drives long enough to keep the defenders fresh. I'm thinking it'll end up something like 30-13 Atlanta And you know what? I won't think any less of this team if that happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tcali Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) ATL is the best team in football.I dont think its even close exc for NE and maybe KC. So if the Bills give them a good game it would be huge. Edited September 25, 2017 by Tcali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping they can establish the run game and beat up the birds but I'm expecting them to get gassed. The Falcons offense has too many weapons and the Bills are still new to the D and have a few misfits out there. Excited either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasovon Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 ATL is the best team in football.I dont think its even close exc for NE and maybe KC. So if the Bills give them a good game it would be huge. They were very lucky against both the Bears and the Lions, i don't think they are world beaters especially on defense.

Mellow1 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 The Falcons are overrated and their defense is above suspect. All this blow out stuff is ridiculous and they barely won Against Chicago and should have an L from the Lions. I have been living in ATL for 27 years and they have nev er scared anyone. Bills shock the world(Not me) 31 - 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That we remain the sort of team that will get its ass kicked by the best teams in the league, and you are good with that? Uh, no. It means that I feel that this is the type of team that is playing above my level of expectations, but isn't ready to compete with the best in the NFL, especially on their own turf, and thus a loss to the best team in the NFC isn't going to adversely affect my opinion of them. Sorry for the run-on sentence, and I'll appreciate a more thoughtful, less put-your-words-in-my-text response next time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PABillsfan23 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Find their thread where there was 8 minutes left in the Super Bowl lol A Bills fan ragging on another team that lost a super bowl.. Good idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I hope ATL does. One thing that travels Defense and a running game. I expect buffalo will have to play near perfect to pull it out. The run game clicking into gear would be a good one. I liked seeing Richie pulling. Even though he got the holding call I expect to see that play more this week. Mccoy will be primed for a big day. Good running game and limit the Falcons plays will be key. This is really just a perception game. The Denver game was more meaningful when it comes to significance in the playoff chances. A championship caliber team will be a good litmus test to see where we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is really just a perception game. The Denver game was more meaningful when it comes to significance in the playoff chances. A championship caliber team will be a good litmus test to see where we are. I wouldn't say we need to play perfect but they need to do 2 things: 1. Limit ATL to FG's like they have not TD's. ATL will move the ball they are too good not too, but keeping them out of the endzone will limit pressure on our offense. 2. When we have the ball get long drives that chew the clock. This goes against everything I believe in football wise because I like uptempo and attack, but if Buffalo can have the ball for 32 minutes even I think your looking at a game that Buffalo can win that may be 20-16 when the Bills get their last drive. Realistically if these two things happen they still may be down but I can see Tyrod and the offense getting a chance at redemption from Carolina to win in the final 2 minutes and it being a one score game.

Another Fan Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 'Member the last time we played them in Toronto? I 'member (unfortunately). Yes very unfortunately. Besides the painful fumbles that game felt like an away game too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy Kevi Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 overrated? so he's expecting they only score 25? I could see that but ryan can be rattled leading to mistakes. sorry, after the meltdown in the superbowl I'm not as impressed with atlanta as some are. He's saying they will win by 25... Personally, I feel like our def will slow them down but not shut them down. To me it's more of a story of our Offense vs their Defense. If we score 28 points, we win the game. I wouldn't even begin to try to predict the outcome, though. Generally, these are the types of games we can steal, and there's one every year, but the matchups are so wacky it's hard to tell.

PromoTheRobot Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I don't expect a win but I do expect a reletively close game. But if the Bills do somehow win I look forward to the "Falcons are overrated" takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarlinTheMagician Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I am a relentless optimist and called the Denver win on this board. Can't call the Falcons win this week. But I can sure hope! I think we have a chance, but a minority chance. Like 35-40%? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyBills Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Ditto. I'm hoping they can establish the run game and beat up the birds but I'm expecting them to get gassed. The Falcons offense has too many weapons and the Bills are still new to the D and have a few misfits out there. Excited either way.This just doesn't make sense. Expect us to get gassed? We didn't gas out in 85 degree weather at Car with no offense.. This D has proven it's legit I'm, Ryan is coming off a 3 int game against Detroit! How I see it is we run at will and kill them with the PA, and our DL will disrupt Matty Ice , Trevor was the next Manning this time last week, just remember this. The D is legit , our run game bounces back, Taylor has a similar game.. I predicted 27 16 Bills last week. My prediction will come Thursday, but I guarantee it's a close game, no team, including NE is going to get an Easy W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbbillsfan Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I really want to think we can win this game - but the falcons offense on the turf play so dang fast, it will be very tough to get a win there. Just don't see us matching up well. I thought we had a chance to beat the broncos in a fairly low scoring affair, but this will be a different animal.
