freddyjj Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 OK we know it will be slow news days for a while until team back in BUF after bye week. So I thought I'd put out some topics for discussion: Bills win outright 61% of the time coming off the bye all time. Per the link here, warm weather teams have 30-35% winning percentages in 21-30 degree and 31-40 degree weather http://archive.advancedfootballanalytics.com/2012/01/how-does-temperature-affect-road-teams.html The Jags did win in PIT last year in the cold. Personally I like giving Daboll 2 weeks with some new speedsters and Josh to cook something up on Offense. Bills have won against a mobile QB this year beating TENN and Mariota. Bills D and Frazier did good job vs Jags on D last year in playoffs. Held Fournette to 57 yds on 21 carries. Bortels to 87 yds passing on 12/23 completion for 1 td, no INT and only 3.6 YPA. What killed Bills was Bortels running 10 times for 88 yds. Man that game was Neanderthal offense at its best! Bills did run for 130 yds on 31 attempts in playoff game so should be able to make some headway again. The passing offense has to improve on the 18/40 for 133 yds and 2 INTs that Tyrod/NP put up last year. I say turn the tables and make Bortles play QB and beat D (use Tremaine as a spy). Go Bills! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 (edited) Speed on the field is a good thing. Don’t let Bortles run for 300 yards would be my first suggestion. Edited November 16, 2018 by Augie 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juice_32 Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I'd love for Allen to throw a TD against Ramsey. It's probably wise to avoid him but something tells me they will take some shots on him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like A Mofo Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 A lot may ride on how Jacksonville does this weekend. If they win a big game against PITT they might be rejuvenated, if they lose then I can see that team packing it in mentally and giving us a great chance to get a W 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Jax has been playing terrible as of late. They're at home against the Steelers this week, who have been playing well. It will be interesting to see if Jax gets blown out (like I suspect they will) or wake up and show some fight. If it's close or Jax wins, assuming the Steelers don't lay an egg, we will probably have a tough time against them a little over a week from now. Otherwise, contain Bortles and this game is winnable.

LSHMEAB Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 If Allen goes at Ramsey in some kinda way, I'll change my negative tune around here(for a week). If he's got the fire to be a franchise QB, that comment won't be forgotten. 1 hour ago, Success said: It’s cool to have a revenge game from the PLAYOFFS. Oh yes. What sweet revenge it will be to get to 4-7! Be about as satisfying as beating Tennessee week 1 of the season following the MCM. Woopdy woo!

TigerJ Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Jags are struggling. I think It is a good time for Buffalo to be playing them. It will be interestiung to me to see how the injury layoff has affected Josh Allen. I'm hoping there has been a benefit in his interaction with Derek Anderson and Matt Barkley and in watching them work under center and in the huddle. If Josh is to be Buffalo's QB going forward, it would be a terrific time to show som significant improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 When was the last time we saw a Bills offense be as efficient and modern as it looked last Sunday? It was like watching a real football team for a change. The simplicity in converting 3rd Downs and effortlessly moving into scoring position... That’s what most teams feel like all the time. But we will be the team that benches the QB responsible for that. Take the worst offense tracked in 30 years, to 41 points...But then bench the guy. All I hope is that Allen plays good. I would be much more excited and hopeful if Barkley was getting his 2nd start. I would love to see if last week was a fluke. Because we won’t get that chance, I hope Allen picks up where Barkley left off. We just had no issue scoring. There should be no reason to go back to the 9 point games. Especially at home off a bye. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Joe Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Barkley is a free agent at the end of the year.. The Bills shouldn’t be showcasing him so he can get more money elsewhere next year..

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Bortles is mobile, Fournette is back plus Hyde and Yeldon. Stop the run -- less than 150 yds on the ground and the Bills win providing that Allen does not turn the ball over more than two times. Hit a deep ball or two to keep the D honest and the Bills but up 24 BUF 24 JAX 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffAlone Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 The offense looked better than capable under Barkley's command, but I have a serious case of J.A.W.S.( Josh Allen Withdrawl Syndrome).

It's pretty well known that Steelers fans "travel well" for away games, but they refer to Jacksonville as "Pittsburgh South". There should be a sea of black and yellow there tomorrow. When the Bills played at JAX in 2013, my section had several Steelers fans in attendance (why tf were they there?). Aside from that little tidbit, I dont think the Jags stand a chance tomorrow.

Barkley had a pretty good game, but he's still the same QB with average arm strength who can't drive the ball with any consistency. He got away with a few that should have been picked last week. Back to the bench where he belongs as McDermott has already said Allen will start when healthy with every indication that will be next Sunday.

You’re just flat out wrong about his potential. We all know how irresponsible McD is with the QB position. It would be a gross mistake to play Allen.
