Jobot Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 The thing that had been bothering me about this upcoming game vs NE, is that Buffalo just hasn't played a complete game so far this season. They've looked so great early in all 3 contests, and then just seem to coast.. .Why is that?? However, my revelation is that with NE in town, there is zero chance of this happening! This Sunday, watch as the Bills trade punches with NE for 1.5 quarters before establishing total dominance in the 3rd and 4th quarters. This game will mark the end of the Patriots control of the league for REAL this time! 2 2 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Linen Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 They haven't looked great. They squeaked by in 2 of the 3 games that they should have won handily. We have a lot of growing up to do offensively. I'm not saying we can't win but we can't play the way we have - it must be better. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddaryl Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 They will definitely need a complete game no 3rd quarter Hiatus. Got to limit the mistakes.. Really should be a great game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will continue to grow and get better each game. The chemistry is slowly building though, you can see it. Either way Pats will be a tough go as they usually are. Just hope the tables will finally turn this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Little flashback for everyone who is new to a successful Bills team... long long long ago when the best era of Bills football was just starting, the team loaded with multiple future hofers had an uncanny knack for playing up or down to their competition. They’d win the ones they should’ve won by landslides with the narrowest of margins and last minute heroics.... then they’d slay giants that based on the former, they had no business beating. Thats just one reason I’m beyond excited for this weekend to see where things are. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can play a clean game with no turnovers, and our defense continues to be good then we CAN win. Im not gonna say we will. Both the Jets and Bengals games would have been won handily without stupid turnovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r00tabaga Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 (edited) Really depends on how Josh handles the moment. I give a slight edge to their Defense & ST's but I really think our Offense is more dynamic when its clicking. They have no run game & their TE's are trash. Throw in their mash'd up Oline too. Our future is bright. Sunday will be loud. Allen, Rambo & Motor will be running the East soon. #itsonlikeamofo Edited September 27, 2019 by r00tabaga 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was curious if that's what being a fan of a winning team felt like. Being favored in a game and having everyone expect us to win is one thing. Being an underdog is where we have lived for so long that it made every win that much better.

tomur67 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 I think that in the first three games they showed they were the better team in each game, but only played well enough to win to make them close games. It's like they're playing to the level of their competition. I'm hoping that they will step up their game playing against the Patriots. They will need to do that against the Pats. They've shown by their play that they have the talent, but they have to sustain it. No let up. No mistakes, GO BILLS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLTbills Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 They are definitely beatable, no question. As long as we eliminate the mistakes, we can definitely win this thing. Can't throw hero ball int's. Can't kick a 62 yard FG at the end of the half when you still have a chance to gain yards with 7 seconds on the clock and come away with no points. Can't fumble in the red zone. If we finish these drives, instead of let points get away like last week, we win by 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 I'd like to think we'll win, but I doubt it because I don't think we can stop the Pats short timing passes. I do see us stopping their run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreggTX Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 31-26 Bills and yes, I must be crazy. Big day for the offense and just enough on D to make it stick. Bills win 1st half. Pats come back to make it a 1 score game. D hangs on at the end. 2 sacks for Hughes. Knox has a breakout day. Brown fares reasonably well, but Allen grows up a pinch with his best NFL game to date with 3 TD passes and a 3 yd TD run to go along with several other good scampers. Thousands will leave with larengitis after shouting "Let's go Buffalo!" for the entire game. The respect for this team will grow considerably as national writers will start digging deeper to find out why. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Officially, I have no idea, despite 15 years of failure. But I THINK we can do this!

par73 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Bills would need an heroic effort from the D, and the offense would have to eliminate the turnovers. I think the Patriots defense will be too much for Allen, and the despised Brady will keep doing what he does to the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
