Chandler#81 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I’ve been unafraid of this game all season, believing Pittsburgh is a Paper Tiger. -OK, not as good as advertised. What we did last season -blaring their ‘fight song’ during the weeklong practices- says we are a prepared team every week. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I wish the Bills would have had an opportunity to give them their first loss. Three games in eleven days for them could be tough but I expect a pissed off Steelers team coming to Buffalo after a loss. Tomlin looks and sounds angry in his post game comments after a win so I could only imagine what kind of a mood he will be in this week. This game will be tough but winnable. 10-3 would be a nice and since KC will probably beat Miami a Bills win would all but guarantee the AFCE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffalobillswin Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Can’t wait for the Steelers to try and beat us 5 yards at a time. Most boring team to watch in the league. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loveorhatembillsfan4life Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Steelers should be very worried about us. They look sluggish and uninspired the last few games. Let’s see which team shows up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of us wanted that, but if we can give them their second loss and have opportunity to get up to 2nd seed and have possible 2 home games that would be ideal . 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hemma Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Seems strange to see the Steelers at 28th in run offense. They hit crappy weather in the playoffs and they could have a quick trip to the couch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bferra13 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Couldn't have asked to play them at a better time with their injuries and slumping. Can't lay an egg here at home. Old Bills teams would crap the bed right about now. Exorcise those old demons once and for all here and show the nation we are for real, now and for a long time to come. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YattaOkasan Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I actually prefer playing this team after a loss (particularly the type they had). I think they could def have been playing hard because of the perfect record. Now that its slipped away I think they have another let down game. Oakland just had 2 let down games (Greggo bailing them out of 2 losses) after that heartbreaking loss to the Chiefs. Even though they are pros these type of let downs happen (also short week so any hangovers eat a bigger chunk of time). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont Stop Billeiving Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Bud Dupree is a huge loss for the Steelers as well. One small complaint I have with Daboll is that he doesn't give enough respect in the game plan to elite defensive line players on the opposing team. A few times per game, you'll see a Gabe Davis or Tyler Kroft being asked to single block a Joey Bosa/JJ Watt/Myles Garrett and these guys have had a huge impact and have wrecked or nearly wrecked the game. We've caught a break with Dupree out with that unfortunate injury and I like to see us chip or double block TJ Watt on every play. The Steelers defense is strong, but limiting Watt's impact gives us the best chance to score points. It sounds really simple, but we haven't been able to stop that level of elite edge talent over the past couple years and I hope we'll adjust. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think its as Chris Simms would say just not thinking how the whiteboard translates to the field. On the board its "O blocks X were good." In reality it could end up being Davis trying to seal Bosa on a run. Thats not gonna work. But honestly that was an amazing game he called last night. He had a lot of answers against a defensive coach everyone was fawning over. Edited December 8, 2020 by YattaOkasan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Realist Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I really didn't want The Football Team to beat them yesterday. Not that I wanted and expected Buffalo to be the first, but now the Steelers are going to pissed and they are going to come in with a no way we are going to lose attitude.

Wo-Bah Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I am not writing off anyone the way our defense still gives up huge yardage plays. I hate Ben R. (sorry, can't spell his name) but I think he can still throw the ball. I do think, though, that our run defense has improved lately. I do like this Bills team and they are easy to root for. I just am expecting a tough game vs. the Steelers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lose a heartbreaker to an NFC East to break your chance at history. That can be the thing that sticks in your mind longer than it should (and theyll need all that time cause we coming).

I feel the Steelers have been fairly unimpressive all around and the game will be hyped. Now we actually have a mathematical shot at #2 . Sucks there is no bye, but Pitt drops another of the last 3 and we win out, viola. Tough game? Yep...but we will be in it. Cant see this team being weak.

Also 3 games in 11 days for them. That is a lot of football over a short period of time. That has to be wearing them down somewhat.

CNYfan Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 To me the difficulty with the Pittsburgh matchup is the talent and depth at the WR position. The Steelers have so many weapons so it isn't if you take away one guy and contain the remainder. They are very deep and will keep the Bills in Nickel where Taron 24 and Levi39 will have to be at their very best. Hopefully our (Bills) offense can romp again while holding the Steelers here and there to field goals, punts and causing a fortuitous turnover. This is my current analysis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichRiderBills Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 My early observations: -steelers win by turnover differential and big plays to WRs. When those are not on, they struggle. -WRs have a ton of drops lately - typical steeler good D , really get to QB...but look at the QBs they have faced. -secondary will be banged up, key injuries on a team that is not that deep. -oline is not typical Steeler standard, have trouble running. RBs are nothing scary. -schedule has been weak. Best wins; Titans and Browns blowout. -really unimpressive lately. - Big Ben has looked like the old king who dies at the beginning of the movie. He's a dinosaur back there, but I still would not underestimate him. I think we can put him down. -Bills can win the game, and maybe even should be favored. The Steelers cant run. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
