Greg S Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 This game is going to be like yesterday's. Lots of scoring. This is a tossup game. It would be nice to go into the bye 8-2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hebert19 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Whats interesting about this game is what defense does Arizona fame plan for? The one where we drop 7 to keep him in pocket and make them run the ball or the one that brings 5 every play like against Jets or the one that runs delayed blitzes like yesterday. We have completely thrown base defense out the door and it is going to make us very hard to gameplan for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back2Buff Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Bills should put 40 up on Arizona. Just not impressed with them. Hopefully Drake doesn't play. Murray is meh to me. He makes a lot errors and relies on his feet too much. Play him like they did lamar last year, and he will crumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes a large part of their offense is him running around and causing chaos. Play disciplined and get hands up, make him make many plays with his arm from the pocket and force patience.

I do think their season opener was impressive. Their wins against weaker teams have been comfortable and high scoring and Murray has looked fluent in those. They are dangerous but inconsistent. A lot like the Chargers whom we have after the bye. They have been losing close games but offensively they can be dangerous. Write off those teams at your peril. See Bengals-Titans. That said living in Carolina I saw them beat the Cardinals and Murray had a bad day which was glossed over.

When Kyler was scrambled by the Carolina pass rush he made bad throw decisions. That's definitely something he needs to work on. He can make good throws too though and he has the weapons in a good receiving core. I'm not comfortable with trying to put Kyler in a "this is what he is box". He's a good runner but like Josh it doesn't mean that he can't be a good passer too with flashes of brillaince and in time passing may become a strength. As a No1 pick he's not a one trick pony while at the same time as a young guy he will make mistakes.

They are what their record says they are. Rams (5-3), at the Raiders (5-3) and at the the Dolphins (5-3). Add the Seahawks to that resume and our win list cannot be called weak.

Seoulofstone Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I believe the defense is showing gradual signs of improvement but this stretch of 3 games will be a killer test https://www.espn.com/nfl/stats/team/_/view/offense/sort/netYardsPerGame They face Seattle, Arizona and LA who have the 3 highest yards per game averages in the NFL currently.

Bob in STL Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Historically, games in the western time zone are challenging. Games against a QB like Murray are also challenging. Road games against a team coming off a tough loss are challenging. It will be a tough game. I hope our OL is back together and that Tre can go. Big game to win before the much needed bye week. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveorhatembillsfan4life Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) What's been really cool all season long is how Josh distributes the ball around. Diggs and Brown getting their yardage, but TD's coming from Mackenzie, Kroft and Gabriel Davis. Everyone getting a chance to contribute!

hemma Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I'm definitely not a film dicer, but I just watched their game from yesterday and fwiw: - Hopkins definitely knows how to get a PI call. I think he got 3 of them. - Murray (at least yesterday) much prefers to run/scramble right. When he does run left, he doesn't look downfield. - I think he had 4 real low throws. That + Edmunds length might give him trouble. - Their Special teams looked un-good. Running the wrong way, letting punts hit and roll, missed FG. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
