Bills Can Go For a Nice Run — Jags, NYG, @Pats, Bucs, @Bengals, Broncos & Jets


HIT BY SPIKES

Recommended Posts

Don’t want to count my chickens before I oven roast them however we have a very doable schedule until we play @Eagles, BYE and @Chiefs.

 

The Bucs game is in Buffalo.

 

The Bengals look vulnerable.

 

The rest of those 7 games we should be favoured by 7+ points.

 

Would love to go into our BYE week 11-1 or 10-2.

Jags next week is the toughest game. They have already been over here a week will be acclimatised. Bills only travel over late in the week. I am worried that will give them an advantage. Even though we are the better team. Get through next Sunday unscathed we are set for a nice little run through to the Eagles game.

True but the Jags , especially Lawrence has looked bad. I still think we dominate them. I watched that whole game and just kept thinking how awful both teams looked.

Hope so. But having done the US to UK flight a fair few times in my life the jetlag is a killer. I'm sure the Bills have a plan but I'd rather be in Jacksonville's position of having been here for 2 weeks. I do think the Bills should win but I expect an ugly, scrappy kind of game. It is our hardest game until Philly IMO.

There are two sides to this.   Yea the jags will be more conditioned to the time zone.  But they are also living out of suitcases vs in their own home practicing in their facility.  The bills can get it done.

I don't think one equalises the other. I also think the Bills can get it done. But I think this will be a tough game.

Ya it probably is, and yes they'll have that advantage but I don't think they're close to our weight class right now. I actually picked Jax @ Buf for AFC title gm but Jax has looked very mediocre. and again,  Lawrence is not playing anywhere near the level he was at last half of last year. Thought adding a true #1 in Ridley would put them over the top

If Von plays, there will be an extra juice. I hope he does, even if just a few plays.

 

The Jags can be dangerous, especially with their familiarity with overseas experience. I am confident we will beat them, but I do not see a blowout.

At the same time, being away from home for two weeks, especially a foreign country, can have a negative affect.

As to the entire idea of this thread: Didn't we learn anything about the NFL yesterday? Last week, every talk show told us how unstoppable the fish were. The fish were already booking their tickets to Las Vegas. They were making room for the Lombardi trophy in their display case. And then a game happened.

 

One game at a time, people, and you better be ready to play every game.

 

Hmmmm? Who do we play next? Oh, yeah., the Jacksonville Jaguars. That vial you have in your mouth right now comes from the memory you tried to bury deep in your brain of the last time we played them. Never forget how awful this following sentence is:

 

We lost to an Urban Meyer's coached football team--he did not even last the season that year.

 

One game, one week at a time, people, one game at a time!

I'm not sure Ridley is a "true" #1. He more like a 1B / very high end #2 in my mind. I think a true #1 remains a need on that team.

Agreed and agreed.

This week is Von watch.  I like where you’re head is at in 11-1.

I think the Bills should wait till after the Jags game to play Von.  No need to play overseas.  Start fresh the following week.
