You’re spending way too much time on this. I disagree with you. The Bills are not an “iffy” team in the minds of true NFL experts — the only question mark coming into the season was Josh Allen’s progression, and he has answered the bell in nearly everyone’s mind. Sitting around waiting for a house of cards to collapse isn’t my bag. I know a good thing when I see it and I’m not going to let 2000-2016 memories keep me from being confident about this team and organization. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"All the experts agree the Bills are an upper echelon team! Go read all the preseason predictions!" Hapless: Googles and first 3 out of 3 predict Bills as nose-pickers - good enough to hit a WC slot, not good enough to go anywhere with it. Shares this info. Eball: "You're spending way too much time on this" Bless your Little Heart, Son! Your personal beliefs and intentions were not the subject under discussion. You believe just whatever you want. You're right, we disagree, but as a rebuttal of someone who put a bit of time into looking at whether your point is proven or not....Weak Sauce, mate. We'll have to write your version of "expert beliefs and predictions" down as "disproven". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I could see Brown getting a lot of those plays, and Davis running wide. Taron Johnson could be a significant loss, especially if Milano, or Edmunds doesn't make it back on the field, but I have a lot of confidence in Neal. That guy's a beast. I kinda feel like I'm not going to miss Knox dropping passes. God, I hope Oliver's absence is precautionary, and I hope Tre's red jersey was lined with bubble wrap. Obviously, either of those guys would be a huge loss for this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel101 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 On 9/21/2020 at 11:35 AM, Alphadawg7 said: Well we had the 2019 version of the defense week 1, we dominated all facets of that game. Week 2, we were missing 2 of our best players, both at LB, both who excel in coverage and shutting down middle of field. Miami has a very good coaching staff now, I literally think the Dolphins have their own version of McD and Beane now and are about at the same spot we were during Allens rookie year. Great staff, pieces being added each year, on their way up. So that staff literally focused on exploiting the weakness of the D Sunday, and it worked as Gesicki had a career day because of it. This put a ton more pressure on the DB's too, and allowed them to exploit and abuse Levi as well who struggled all day. So, we still have that stingy 2019 version of the defense, we have just never before been forced to play without our 2 stud LB's in the same game before, not to mention, Norman is going to be a clear upgrade over Levi. Speaking of Levi, I don't know what happened to him. There was a stretch last year where he was our highest rated DB and playing great as teams tried to attack him and avoid Tre. But as the season wore on, he got more inconsistent. He is a guy that cn go out on a Sunday and have a great game, make great plays, etc...or he can go out and be a complete liability. I don't understand what it is that makes him like that. I know Milano and Edmunds being out didn't help at all, but still, he struggled a lot yesterday again. Hopefully he shakes it off and has a bounce back game. Anyone know the status of Norman and if he has a shot to play Sunday? Norman can come off of IR after Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
