SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Miami was tough but never had a running game of top notch defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theAteam Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Couple things we have going for us: - McDermott coming from the NFCS knows how to plan defensively for the Saints. Same as TB, ATL, and CAR - Home game with cold weather - Benjamin, Gaines, Clay all playing - Longer week to game plan I like to think of their winning streak as a positive for us. They aren't as desperate as us and can become complacent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills had a total cakewalk to the SB those 4 years, the only game with fear was the Denver one with the INT sealing it off, nothing else was even remotely a challenge. Yes they would have. I remember GB, TB division being really bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sure are, if the Bills have a decent team, which we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloFan68 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Bills need to be aggressive these next couple of games or they will end up 5 - 7 before we get to Indy. Go Bills!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloFan68 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 theAteam has some good points; "- McDermott coming from the NFCS knows how to plan defensively for the Saints. Same as TB, ATL, and CAR - Home game with cold weather - Benjamin, Gaines, Clay all playing - Longer week to game plan" .... but as bad as we looked against the Jets and as good as NO has looked over the last couple of weeks, it's hard to get one's hopes up. Let's Go Buffalo!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AFC was a TOTAL JOKE, again a TOTAL JOKE, outside the Bills for those 4 seasons, doubt the runner-up would have made the playoffs in the NFC those Super Bowl years. We've been through this before Row and no, the AFC was not a total joke. I will post the records if that helps you understand they weren't a joke.

Way too much roster turnover from year to year on this team for me to waste money like that. Edited November 6, 2017 by Scott7975 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talley56 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Not going to be easy when you take common opponents into account we lost to Carolina and were fortunate to beat Tampa. New Orleas rolled both teams. But not impossible. Taylor, McCoy, Clay, and Benjamin need to wear down their defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLXbillsmafia Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 I think it is clear NO is the better team, even if they haven't played the strongest schedule to date. The Saints are a top 5 offense, whereas the Bills are a bottom 5 offense. The defenses are probably a wash. The Bills, like any NFL team, look great when winning the TO battle by 3 or 4, but that is very unlikely against Brees and the Saints. Home field at least gives the Bills a shot, but when the Bills have played legit playoff teams (not the Dolphins from last year) at home, they have often been dominated at home. Just look at our recent home games vs the Pats, the Steelers game last year, and the Bengals game in 2015. I am not sure the Saints are as good as those teams, so the game may be closer, but I just don't see the Bills winning without SEVERAL takeaways.
