JuJu won't be enough to buoy their offense. Pitt's D is respectable, but I think we'll be able to move the ball against them. Bills 24 Pitt 9 The wild card may be defensive or ST scoring, however. Worried about that, frankly, given that the Steelers D will be playing with their hair on fire... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VW82 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) Obviously we want to win as there are still scenarios where we could miss the playoffs but I do wonder if we want to be the 5th or 6th seed. Let's assume KC keeps winning and one of them or NE is the three seed. Surely we'd rather play the winner of the AFC South, right? But what if that team is the resurgent Titans? Our biggest strength is defending the pass and one of our weaknesses is stopping the run. Henry is a monster. Pats look vulnerable. KC has a very weak defense this year. Who'd you rather?

warrior9 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I haven't read so I apologize is someone mentioned this. It may turn out that the Titans win was the biggest game of this year. They are on our heels and now we have the tie break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrober38 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I dunno about "biggest", but I'd certainly like to see this team beat someone with a winning record. That would be nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrbojanglezs Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 it should be treated as a playoff game by the coaches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 30 minutes ago, Joe in Winslow said: I'll ask the same thing I've asked to all the other concerneds: How will Duck Dodgers move the ball on us? Probably in fits and starts, the way most QBs have moved the ball on us. He won't put up 35 points, but people acting like they are never going to cross mid-field are dreaming. They have a defense that can keep Allen in check too, so the game will likely be decided by who can pull off a couple big plays, or who gets the big turnover, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was Mariota...before (can't believe I am saying this) Tannehill made them better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

par73 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Pittsburgh will do pretty much what Baltimore did yesterday on defense. The Bills offense has struggled mightily against every strong D they've faced. Even with a guy named "Duck" at QB for the opposition, this game will be extremely tough, and I'd favor Pittsburgh on their turf. The pressure will be on the Bills D to play at the very top of their game-- and to hopefully get a couple TO's. The Bills have a terrible history vs. Pittsburgh (remember 2004??) and this game brings back nothing but bad memories and negative thoughts.

MDH Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 18 hours ago, /dev/null said: Biggest game of the season so far. But if we beat the Steelers in week 15, the biggest game of the season then becomes week 16 against the Patriots* for the AFCE lead The only way the NE game is bigger than this Pit game is if the Bills win this week and the Pats lose. Otherwise, this Pit game not only guarantees the playoffs but the 5 seed, which means a road trip (at worst) to Hou or Ten. Other than getting a home playoff game that is the easiest path to getting a playoff win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenorthremembers Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I have no idea what to think about this game. They are a good run defense and a great pass defense. Can Singletary do enough to get the win? The end of the season is going exactly the way I was worried it would. If they don't get this one, you pretty much are giving yourself one shot at getting into the playoffs because they arent beating the Patriots on the road. I think Allen is the better quarterback in the matchup, but he isn't playing Duck Hodges he is playing a very strong defense with two very good pass rushers. Honestly, this game is put up or shut up time for year two of Allen. If he is going to go into next season as a guy you have any faith in he needs to show up and show out in this game. And for God's sake use your legs this week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
