You beat me to it. JJ Watt was the most terrifying thing I've ever seen in that game.

The worst nightmare is we get a tedy bruschi game part 2

 

Ugh. Yes that was bad also.

I don't see why this is a comparison. Pittsburgh is carried by their D, Texans are not by any stretch.

Watt is a defensive player and there was skepticism whether the O -line could hold up against Pittsburgh's pass rush. That's the comparison .

Our run blocking stinks largely in part because no one is scared by JA and they put more hats on us and we end up being outnumbered.

To be more specific, no one is afraid of the Bills' wide receivers.  They see a lot of single coverage with single safety over the top. They don't get open on time consistently. This forces Allen to hold the ball which makes the o-line's job that much harder. That needs to be fixed this off season.

A one armed Watt is better than any of the other guys that Houston put out there in his absence.  He will be a test for Cody Ford.  I expect the Bills to run some trap plays right at him to slow down his up field rush.  Until we see him on the field, we don't really know how game ready he will actually be.

This is if we play them of course but its looking that way. Agree on the receivers however there are times josh plain misses and that must be corrected also. Lets hope we can put it all together.

Long as Ty N. can get back and Morse, then we should be able to handle it ok, that way the Bills got all their veterans on the field. Feel much better with the vets available during a playoff game than with the rookie Ford trying to keep that right side clean.

 

Having your veterans present and available playing in a playoff game makes a lot of difference IMO.

Because people are scared of an old, broken-down guy who's played like 6 games in the past two years.

 

Because people here like to be scared of things.

 

He has the most QB pressures on the team and hasn't played since Week 8. So yea.

Huh? Our O was putrid like its been all season- just sayin’

Eric Burden Knows! 

What game were you watching? They had 1 sack. I think you don't understand what good and bad Oline play really is. The line has not been even close to putrid all year. Get a clue bro.

Not o line - O in general. Averaging what 16 a game? No reason to get nasty, bro

20.5 not great not putrid.

Ranked 23rd- a little below average. Just imagine if we came in ranked 16 or higher? We would probably be sitting on top of the AFC East- thats how close we are.

Oh I know it. Daboll needs to figure out how to get about 3 or 4 more points a game out of this team and we would be in a really good place as long as we keep playing the defense we are.

Yeah but the Texans don't have nearly as good a defense, even with one-armed Watt.

 

 

They are 5-3 with him, 5-2 without him.  

 

The Bills have scored more than 20 points once in the past 5 games.  8 of 15 games have been under 20--including 3 in a row at 17.

 

Since the bye, they have beaten no teams currently with a winning record.  

 

In the final meaningful game of the year, they go steamrolled by a suspect NE Offense.

 

This will be a tough out.s

Not without help, as per usual.

 

And out of all the teams in the playoffs, I'd rather they faced Houston.  They can get to Watson with that OL.

It was meaningful to the fans cause we all TIRED of losing to NE, but I said from the word go that this game meant very little and the Bills play, specifically the horrid tackling showed that.

 

They took NE's best shot and still had a chance to beat them in the end.

 

Now on to the point in this thread, Watt shouldn't be the Bills biggest worry on the Texans D, it's Mercilus' ability to get to the QB that should be the biggest worry.

They could barely get to Duck Dodges.  He made bad passing choices.

 

But yes, of the teams ahead off them, maybe their best chance is against Texans in round 1.

The Steelers have an excellent OL.  Helped make Bell look like a $13M/year back...to the Jets, that is.

Yet their running game is awful now...

 

The Steelers were doing well enough as a whole to rattle-off enough wins to put themselves back in playoff contention, when they looked like one of the worst teams in the league at the beginning of the season.  We'll find out in a little over a week.

True we will.  But your point regarding the Steelers creating Bell pales when you see what they are doing now for the run.   They have a great D.  Some here, based on ppg and total ypg would have to conclude that the Steelers Offense is "awful".  In fact the team itself may be just barely above awful only 2 games better than a 6-9 team...

Steelers still have a really good oline, but fosters playbat guard and having a new right tackle has made it take a step back....more importantly though, nobody fears duck or rudolph (hes now out for season), and were able.to stack the line.  Big difference vs having ben healthy.with AB and a healthy JuJu

When someone looks as he does, has the success that he does, and has the injuries that he does, I can't help but question whether he's on PED's.

 

He definitely is, but so is half the league.  I have no delusions about the National Football League.
