There was an expected amount of homerism, but no reason for them to think their team can't get a win. I have visited worse boards.. Going to be a tough game. I agree. Seemed like measured, accurate takes to me. If I was a Rams fan I would pick them to win too. But as a Bills fan I'm picking my team, especially since it is a home game. These teams are fairly evenly matched on paper. Both fan bases should expect it to be a tough game. Edited September 22, 2020 by MJS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace is a liability on the outside and the middle of the field was exposed without Edmunds. They also mentioned how we struggle to beat good teams(and believe the Rams are a good team) dating back to last season which is also 100% true. That’s all fair.

Rochesterian Bills Fan Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) I'll be up front. I don't think Buffalo wins this game.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 https://sports.yahoo.com/safety-protocol-impacts-rams-ahead-190008653.html How safety protocol impacts the Rams ahead of trip to Bills David De Cristofaro Tue, September 22, 2020, 3:00 PM EDT Prior to the NFL’s schedule release each year, teams can make a request to have cross-country games on back-to-back weeks. In the case of the Rams, they requested that the league’s schedule-makers put the Eagles and Bills next to each other on their schedule. That happened, as the Rams beat the Eagles last week in Philadelphia and have Buffalo up next. The idea gives teams the option to avoid long trips. Instead of going back to Los Angeles, the Rams hoped to just travel right to Buffalo. But thanks to Covid-19, that’s not happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been 25 years since this team had an offence that could go punch for punch with anybody. It's gonna take some getting used too. That said, I'm ok with a 38-35 Bills win. So's my cardiologist.

Things like Ramsey will just take out Diggs so our pass game will be stopped, for example. I don’t expect anyone to pencil us in for the SB, either, btw, in order to illustrate respect. I don't know how much Ramsey is a game film nut, but if he thinks that it's the same Josh that he trolled 2 yrs ago, he'll be in for a surprise when he tries to jump a throw. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornAgainBillsFan Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Watching Aaron Donald play his position is a wonder to behold. Watching him do it against the Bills is a nightmare to despise! It reminds me of the early days of Lawrence Taylor back in the early 80s. NFL offenses had to tailor their game plans to at least mitigate the damage he was going to do. I hope Bobby Johnson is burning the midnight oil to come up with some kind of blocking scheme for that monster. Or we're in for a long day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC he already has said that Josh is good, after his trashing of him. I actually like Ramsey. I think he just says stuff to rile up his opponents and get them off their game as opposed to really believing it. I'm paraphrasing but I recall reading something about him when in college he used to search for the social media of the girlfriends of the quarterbacks he was about to face, and harass them on twitter and Facebook, etc, the week before the game. They would report back to their QB bfs who got fuming mad and threatened revenge, but Ramsey just used it to his advantage to get them off their game. Then when he got to the NFL he stopped doing it because he said these crazy dudes got wives and they will shoot you if you do stuff like that to them. I thought that was hilarious. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a good matchup on Sunday because Diggs can match him trash talk for trash talk on the field. Diggs is one of the most self-confident, competitive players I’ve seen and I don’t know if Ramsey is used to that kind of opponent. Have they faced each other in the past? EDIT: In ‘16, the Jags played the Vikings and Diggs had 3 for 55 yards while Ramsey had one tackle and an assist in a game the Vikings won. Doesn’t say much and that’s the only game I can find where their teams faced each other. Edited September 22, 2020 by K-9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
