CardinalScotts Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I like Watson but the " playoff games are nothing new" article from Leo - come on he's played one playoff game threw for 235 yds on 49 attempts and scored 7 point in a loss. Pump the brakes that division has been taken by 10 wins twice by 9 wins twice in the last 5 years. Again I like Watson but they arent beating out the Patriots at 14 and 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. If we win it will be due to our defense keeping Watson under control. Allen just has to be Allen. Take care of the ball, extend plays, take what the defense gives him, and play smart.

BillsfaninSB Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Man I really hope the Bills win. My sports interests really falls off a cliff once football stops. I don’t follow the NBA and lost interest in college basketball when SU became pretty pedestrian a few years back. I care about the Sabres a little but not enough to make up for it.

I agree with just about everything in this video, except for the last part where she mentions she would like the Bills better if they were at home. 6-2 on the road, 4-4 @ home, I’m cool with them bein road dogs the whole way through. To me the home field doesn’t matter in this particular game, it’s not going to effect the defense and the defense will win this game for Buffalo, while the Bills offense does just enough.

I actually prefer the road game here - indoors so no weather issues, plus our fans travel. Also the team seems to feel less pressure on the road sometimes? Maybe.

At least Modell left the names, jerseys, and history in Cleveland. They definitely could've come up with a better name than the Texans though.

njbuff Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Let's not forget, the Bills actually had an intense rivalry with the Houston Oilers. Those Oiler teams were mighty talented and they made the playoffs 7 straight years from 87-93 (the Bills did it from 88-93). And in those 7 seasons, the teams met every year, except 91, either in the regular season or playoffs (both in 92). Lot's of memories with the city of Houston. The Bills and Texans have a long way to go to satisfy that rivalry with the Oilers. Maybe tomorrow is a start. Favoring the Bills, of course ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its not unseasonably warm. Seattle is 7-1 on the road and 4-4 @ home as well. BUT a home playoff game crowd, being LOUD as HELL makes a difference.

Not to sidetrack the thread, but it's annoying to me that I feel better about this game being away in a Dome, than at home in the elements. Of course, we could just start playing better at home so people like me stop thinking that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texans will start blitzing and the Bills have not shown the ability to setup a proper screen passing game. I agree with the game plan of running the ball. But I also know we need to get Josh going early or he has accuracy/jitters issues. First drive needs to have quick hitting passes and designed Josh runs so he can settle in early. Otherwise we will score 9 points all game. Have to get him going...then pound the rock and let him play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
