BringMetheHeadofLeonLett Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 A matchup like this (powerhouse struggle/late season/cold weather) makes me wish the NFL would require all teams to tone down the uniform chroma about 20%, and games be played on natural turf.

machine gun kelly Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Wiz, you beat me to one of my favorite at times youtube link. I don’t know if this helps, but just did a quick scan of the various rankings. Now please consider opponents, and how we only have a backup safety out and Brown. The Steelers have their MLB Spillane, and Hayden out. Last week when Hayden went out, the Alex Smith specifically targeted that area and was torching the backup CB. This took a few minutes so look for what is you’re interest. Bills - Steelers Offense Receiving Yards Yards. Rank Bills. 3457 5th Steelers 3114. 15th Rushing. Yards Rank Bills. 1229. 23rd Steelers. 1111 29th Overall Offense Yards/Game. Rank Bills. 378.8. 10th Steelers 344.8. 21st Pts./Game 27.8 pts. - tied for 7th Bills and Steelers Defense Yards. Rank Bills 375.5. 21st Steelers. 300.5. 3rd Note: The 49ers are 6th and look how that turned out. Pts./Game. Rank Bills. 25.5. 18th Steelers. 17.6. 1st Passing Yards Allowed Yards/Game. Rank Bills. 249.5. 20th Steelers. 199.8. 2nd Rushing Yards Allowed Yards/Game. Rank Bills. 126. 24th Steelers. 100.7. 6th Games Against Winning Teams Bills 4/3 Steelers. 4/0 Remaining Winning Games Full Season Bills have 2 more so 9 of 17 of our schedule was facing winning teams. Steelers 3 more including today and this leads to my last two points. All can infer what they want from this data. It can be interpreted many ways. Strength of Schedule Prior to beginning of the Season Bills 5th Steelers 31st As of this Week Bills 20th Steelers 28th You already know the Injury Report and IR for both teams. Personally, I think we match up well with the Steelers. This game could go either way, but as healthy as we are, and a couple of key injuries on their part tilts in the Bills favor. The counter is they get back Conner and Pouncey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it lower in 2020 because of no fans? Exactly. The line has been something like 0.5-1 point for the home team this year because of everything going on.

Protocal69 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Man I am so nervous about this game. Sports announcers talking ***** to Camron Hayward about the Bills. I truly think if we can beat the Steelers on prime time with the Steelers giving us their best effort I think we can make it to the AFC title game. We’ll see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone could read your statement and think that the only reason why the Bills have a shot is because the Steelers have injuries. That may or may not be exactly what you’re saying. I only say this because an earlier thread this week talked about this being the biggest win of the season and how the Bills need a signature win, but if the Bills win because the Steelers have so many guys out, then the discussion is still “yeah the Bills have all these wins, but...” almost kind of how people are now looking at all of the Steelers wins. pwrsonally I think the Bills have a great shot of winning and still would have a great shot of winning even if all of those guys weren’t injured. And no, I don’t care about the national narrative, but it does get a little old after a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Bills 3 losses, and especially vs Tennessee, they were down significant players. They were missing their top 2 corners, Milano and John brown vs titans and brown and white played hurt vs chiefs along with missing Milano. Edmunds played hurt for the first like 6 games. Vs the cards they were so depleted in the secondary they had Daryl worley out there in the 2nd half. I’m not using it as an excuse, I’m just saying that apparently other teams do that but you don’t often hear about the bills missing significant players too. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Allen will get hit and sacked today.. Steelers front 4 is too good. He must hold onto the ball today Bills! Bills O-line needs to pass block and run block well today. I suspect they will blitz 5 often. Knox and Beasley over the middle should be wide open if the blitz Fitzpatrick or use him to double Diggs. Ben had been known to have a multi turnover game from time to time. If I'm McD I dress Knox, Smith, and Kroft. Gilliam is worthless. They need the pass catching of Knox and Kroft and the blocking of Smith today. Go Bills. Leslie it's time to let White play Juju all over the field. Box and 1 defense. Play zone and let White follow Juju everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Could Tyler Matekavich be a hidden factor for us? He spent 4 seasons in Pittsburgh https://www.buffalobills.com/news/bills-today-tyler-matakevich-can-t-wait-to-play-his-former-team ""I'm definitely excited for this game, it definitely might have been circled on the schedule since like March once I signed here," Matakevich said with a smile. "But I'm just excited to go I mean, I've been there like you said for four years, I know those guys and I know their tendencies and I got a good idea of what they like to do over there. So, I'm just really eager to get out there this weekend." Since he was a backup and ST'er he likely played D on the scout team every week and might have some insights into offensive tendencies and ST as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
