billsfan89 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Bills are running into a tricky matchup on the road against the 49ers. I expect this to be a one posession game late. The 49ers will be without Jimmy G and Kittle but they have been a tough team without both players. I think without John Brown on offense the team struggles to score against a still tough 49ers defense but I do think the defense shows up and shuts down the 49ers. 24-17 Bills a nail biter but the defense shuts the door when needed and the offense does just enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2zipper Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 The shift in the betting line is largely based on narrative. San Francisco is playing for their season tomorrow and Buffalo will get their best shot, but Im not sure people understand what that looks like given Mullens playing. They went to the Super Bowl last year, but this isn't that team. This game largely comes down to Buffalo getting back to taking care of the ball. It's largely a false narrative that Buffalo fails to score without Brown. Outside of the 3-week stretch of KC/tenn/Jets, Buffalo has gotten to the mid-high 20's and up pretty consistently. They've also turned it over a little more than average now with 5 in the last 2 games. San Francisco is 2-5 in games where their defense forces 0-1 turnovers. Their offense on the year hasn't been able to match output with other teams because they can't pass effeciently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC RW didn't want them. Edit: guess there were more than I thought. Loss to the Cowboys in 2007 25-24. Loss to the Browns 2008 29-27. Loss to the Pats 2009 25-24. Loss to the Seahawks 2016 25-31. Loss to the Pats 2018 25-6. Loss to the Texans wildcard last year. Texans game was on a Sunday at 4:00. The pats game is the only mnf game under McDermott and we had Derek Anderson at QB. Unless you count the chiefs game this year that moved to Monday 5pm Edited December 6, 2020 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpsredemption Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Narrative shifting to SF taking this one and I agree. Buffalo is going to be in a dog fight for the division and unfortunately it’s going to be a tough road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JESSEFEFFER Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 I know Az has the roll-a-way playing surface and can make sod replacements but I wonder what shape the field will be for tomorrow only one day removed from an NFL game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 If Dodson and Milano travel they both play. Having the top 4 backers vs SF is big. I expect alot of 4-3 over looks. Possibly Edmunds on the line. Buffalo stops the run they win big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of them traveling I have no doubt they play. Down the stretch the linebacker playing well can make the defense go from complimentary to dominate.

Yeah i mentioned that way earlier in this thread. i think they used to replace their grass in sections. but i doubt they can do that in less than 24 hours? Maybe the NFL steps in to take care of it. the grass looks pretty messed up today. 35 minutes ago, BuffaloBaumer said: I have no idea why the line is the way it is.

I got the feeling after the Arizona game that Buffalo is an above average team but not gonna roll anyone. we didn’t dominate the Cards. we couldn’t separate against a lousy Chargers team... and Josh Allen is definitely not 100%. so if he comes out looking like the Josh from the Tennessee game, we’re cooked. Our D is just not very physical. just watched the Giants D punish Seattle. Hope everything works out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills roll nobody...they aren’t built or coached to blow teams out...not to mention the Bills are without Smoke and rarely play well in prime time...I’m not optimistic about this game...

All that matters is that we play a solid game tomorrow and get a win. Takes us to 9-3 and in great position. If we play smart game we win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
