Is anybody else having anxiety about game one?

If Oliver is as advertised in terms of getting pressure up the middle, I don't know whether or not Darnold is effective throwing on the run. I don't think he'll be taking many 7 step drops, but if he does, that could be a favorable outcome in the Bills favor either by our D line or our Safeties. I'm trusting our LBs to shut down the short stuff, Bell might get his bell rung by Edmonds a few times on some screens

 

 

if oliver can get pressure up the middle, hopefully trent will give the piledriver when darnold rolls to the right.....or tombstone..

I honestly feel like the defense is more the key here, even moreso than Allen's performance. I just don't feel like Allen is quite there yet, would so love to be proven wrong about that. I'm very much hoping the Bills were working on the run and run defense in Detroit. Wasn't too excited about Stafford and Hockenson playing catch

i'll take it a step further.... I've been saying to anyone or anything around me that will listen that the pats aren't winning the division and it will either be the bills or the jets to do it. I think the pats still win 10 and get a wildcard as the 2nd team out of the east but I really truly believe either us or the jets rise up and have a big year..... which team I dunno. but bills or jets win the division.

 

have to remember the pats looked mortal last year in the regular season with 11 wins. they've lost gronk and both his replacements are out to start the year. they've lost a starting safety and a very good center.

well the jets have been the ones to upset ne and gase seems to be able to do it....

The Bills will win, and it won't be close. The Jets are improving, but are a year behind the Bills. Despite having a better QB prospect (maybe), the team has too many holes, still. We will win by 6 or more, because the Jets don't have the weapons on Offense, and their Defense is a bottom third group overall (I do like the D-line). I'm a fan, but a realist, too. And the Bills should win the first two games this year. Frankly, because of the stretch at the end of the year (@Cowboys, Ravens, @Steelers, @Patriots), I feel we have to win these first two, or it will be one of those years again.

I'm all nervous and jerky with a high level of anxiety.  Facing Greggo and having to have our defense pitch a shutout? I can't think of a worse game to lose this year then game one.

 

Someone please tell me my fear is wrong.  It kinda sucks too that all the "beat reporters" are talking up Darnold. We need Oliver to take him out on the first series and beat Carp lips  to the punch.

 

Talk me off the ledge!.....probably stepping into one  there.

Lots of good jokes, but in all seriousness, once you accept the fact that the Bills may very well lose the game, the anxiety will subside. We're not on the team. All of this schtuff is out of our hands. All we can do is watch and root. 

 

Hope for the best. Expect the worst. The only way to live.

I feel like the Jets play hard in week 1 most years. It's going to be a really tough week 1 test for us given their dline strength, but on paper, we should take it. 

If we run we better run wide or misdirection. I would assume we will see the start of the " new Josh Allen short passing game". Their secondary is a mess. We will win but it will be very close.

The Jets' defense makes me a bit nervous about week 1. You also don't know what you're gonna get coming out the gate. I hope the OL protects Allen and the defense can stop the run. Those two things happen and we should be looking at a W.

Why does our defense have to pitch a shutout?

Because he's not expecting our offense to be prolific?

I have anxiety about Buffalo 365 days a year you learn to live with it

Yep, you never get over it.  You just learn how to live with it as the years go by.
