Easy dub

 

C'mon...don't jinx us lol

You should know by now there is no easy win for this team no matter who we're playing. None.

There's literally 0 games on the schedule I can look ahead to & confidently proclaim we'll cruise to victory. And we have no idea how Haskins will perform in his first start, so that alone could prove problematic, or at the very least give the Redskins a spark to play with some extra effort.

Seriously: I felt confident about the Eagles game last week and we got slaughtered.

 

Lesson learned.  I'm not letting this news of a scrub Redskins QB starting give me premonitions of 6-2.

No, it was the blurst of times, get it right.  You respect the monkey at the typewriter.

Shouldn't really matter, should it? Defense needs to step up pressure regardless, but even more so with a rook.


I want to see blitzes coming from all directions to confuse and rattle the kid.

I know that I’m in the minority and an admitted OSU homer but I’d prefer Keenum. I preferred Eli to Daniel Jones for the same reason. Give me the less talented guy with a resume of mediocrity (or in Eli’s case washed up). I don’t think it will matter this week but I’m positive Keenum wouldn’t beat us. 


ultimately, when you are the better team, the last thing you like to see are wild cards. Ideally it’s a team in disarray and you should still win but with zero film you never know if you will get surprised and surprises can steal games you are expecting to win sometimes 

 

i hate to dwell on the pats but they are prime examples. They flashed a stat the other day about BB against young qbs and he was just crushing them. The flip side example being years ago when a much less talented Miami team shocked him with the wild cat. It doesn’t have to be that stark a change from normal but if the kid comes in amped up and decides to hang his hat on doing something really well that we didn’t expect... well... Keenum wouldn’t surprise us.

With our luck this is either the best news or the worst news.

 

this is so true.  best analysis of the situation. we either shut him down, or he has a “coming out” game.

Expect a heavy dose of run protecting a rookie qb

 

we better be ready for this.   last 2 weeks were awful on run D.

Every NFL game has challenges.  In past history there are times when the Bills have struggled against unknown QBs.  All that said, looking at the two teams the Bills should soundly defeat the Skins on Sunday.  

 

They need to stop the run and they need to score a bunch of points at home.

Any reason you believe that after seeing how easily Miami & Philly ran against us?

I said it before the Eagles game. Sanders would burn the Bills. A big slow grinding back isn’t going to kill the Bills. Much like Henry they don’t struggle with backs like that. 

 

They had had problems with Walton, Sanders. Howard had a good day but most of his damage was once the game was out of hand. 

 

Thompson is out. Rookie QB. Slow RB. This is a match made for the D. I’d be surprised if WAshington gets in the end zone.

He’s certainly played well at times. He does have a pretty long resume of mediocrity though. Flacco has been brilliant at times too. I’d sign up to play against a “Flacco-led” team 16 times a year.

Let's just get the dub!

I get to Vegas at noon, too late to lay some cash on the game at the  Mandalay sports book and start drinking.  But with a 10 point spread and the Bills awful at covering at home, maybe it's best....

 

I wouldn't make that bet.  Although I'm still pissed I didn't make it a point to get to a Casino to lay big money on the over for wins for the Bills.  Then again, if I had...
