buffaloboyinATL Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Yeah, those stupid fans thinking the Bills are a powerhouse, or just maybe better then a 1-3 Bengals team. The bills have had an easy schedule having to play against bottom feeder teams like Carolina Denver and Atlanta. Imagine if they had to face a juggernaut like Cleveland! We haven't seen what this team can do against a good defence or offence. Obviously we just have to look back to last season to figure out how this game will go, since they are pretty much returning with the same coaching staff and players as last season.... I'm not positive...but I think I may detect a hint of sarcasm here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 If we can bring back our run schemes from the last couple years, I will be so happy. One 3rd and short conversion they definitely pulled Richie and ran behind him. I think it might have come back for a hold in the end but it was a Greg Roman play that we used a lot in 3rd and short with Mike G last year.

buffaloboyinATL Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Cinci D is legit -- this will be a close game. Comes down to discipline and turnovers as usual, and in both of those areas it does seem Buffalo has the advantage. Seriously. Are we even going to face a weak Defense this year. Aside from maybe Atlanta, every team we faced has a pretty stout D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know anything about anything, but it really seems we move the ball better when we move our guards like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does get easier. Tampa, whilst stout up front, have the 31st ranked passing defense in the league so far; Oakland can't stop the run and are a liability in the secondary; The Saints whilst improving and trending the right way are no better than average; We play New England twice who suck on defense at the moment; We also play Miami twice.... who not unlike Tampa have been okay in run D but have sucked in pass D.

ctk232 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 (edited) 3 point dogs after whooping up on Denver and Atlanta? I kind of like being the underdog! I LOVE being the underdog - gives this team a reason to show up which, as we all know, is our Achilles heel: consistency. I remember the year we fleeced the Chiefs in the opener back with Gailey and Fitz, started out strong and all the experts were picking the opponents for the first few games. Once we started winning and media hype began to come around, we just tanked. I ALWAYS want the media to pick the other team, call me superstitious but I think it matters to us imho.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 5, 2017 Author Share Posted October 5, 2017 Bengals RT Fisher added to injury report The Bengals are already expected to be without TE Tyler Eifert and rookie WR John Ross for Sunday’s game against the Bills. On Thursday their starting right tackle was added to the injury report. Jake Fisher was added to the team’s report as a limited participant due to a back injury. His status on Friday will bear watching. Veteran Andre Smith is Cincinnati’s swing tackle. The Bengals starting corners moved from limited to full practice participation on Thursday, so it appears that Adam Jones and Dre’ Kirkpatrick will be good for Sunday’s game as well as TE Tyler Kroft, who has been filling in for Eifert.

JerseyBills Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I don't think Buff>GB.... but I do think Green Bay don't match up as well to Cincy as we do. As you ay they don't have the D-Line to make the most out of Cincy's o-line weakness. On that night I disagree, I remember watching and was shocked at GB injury report, it was 10 ,11 deep Bengals RT Fisher added to injury report Shaq is back?

Wagon Circler Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 It is obvious that the Bills are about 20 times better than last year. However I do not believe they are a contender and are certainly due for a stinker. 37-12 bengals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
