ExWNYer Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 The Bills have opened as an early 3.5 point favorite. If the game were in Orchard Park, they'd be almost a touchdown favorite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but I think the uncertainty as to when the game would be played, really messed with the Bills headspace in that game. Josh was also still a bit dinged up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo1105 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 The Titans are severely banged up but they also were last year due to COVID and smacked us in the mouth. I can’t see the Bills having a let down though because they have the bye right after this game. They also have to be looking at this as an opportunity to go on a huge run. The Bills after the Titans have Miami with Brissett/Tua at home, Jax, Jets and the toughest game in that stretch is the Colts 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Matter_What Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 At this point we are looking so dominant that I really expect us to win quite easily. And Titans are very suspect on defense. Arizona scored 38 on them, Seattle 30, even Jets had 24 points. Another 34-20 type game IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blainorama5 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 No one should get too cocky about this game. This should be a tough game and another good test.

FilthyBeast Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 This will be an interesting game and a test to see if the Bills have a let down or regression on defense. Key is obviously stopping Henry and their rushing offense, do that and should be another comfortable win and clear path to #1 seed with assumption AFC W and N will continue to knock eachother off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality...........they held Henry to his lowest rushing output of the entire season and that play in question was a negligible gain. The run defense was dominant that night............they just turned the ball over and didn't play well in general offensively. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the game were in Orchard Park, they'd be almost a touchdown favorite. Actually, it means if the Bills were home they'd be 9.5 point favorites. Also, the 3-pt bump for the home team is sort of silly next week...there may be 50% Bills fans in that stadium. I said it last week; the "blip" of a Pittsburgh game aside, since the Hail Murray the Bills are absolutely dominating their opponents in the regular season. Last 10 regular season games (excluding Pittsburgh): winning margins of 10, 10, 11, 29, 29, 30, 35, 22, 40, 18. It feels unprecedented. Oh, and their streak of getting at least 20 first downs is now up to 21 consecutive regular season games. This team is absolutely firing on all cylinders and there is no reason to believe they will take any different approach this week. Most points scored in the NFL and fewest points allowed. It's unreal. Edited October 11, 2021 by eball 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Henry is a plodder. Sure he is powerful but not elusive. Easy to tackle before he gets going. And they have Mike Vrabel as head coach. Knucklehead extraordinaire. The Titans should be very afraid. We are on a mission this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 That Titans Covid game really pissed me off last season. A weird Tuesday game because the Titans were cheating Covid protocol and shock they got Covid. The Titans also to their credit came out with a good plan against the Bills defensively. I think this is another good litmus test for the Bills who will have to see if they can break the Titans defense that worked last season and if the Bills can hunker down against Henry. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Titans did a two deep “soft” approach and it was effective. I suspect they do something similar again. My primary interest is to see how they dink and dunk up the field and if the offense can run on a solid front 7. By far the best defense this offense will face since week one when the Steelers were healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warcodered Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Not too worried about this one, the Titans are too one-dimensional and our defense is too good for me to be worried about there offense, and they aren't stopping our offense.
