BigAl2526 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 My concern is that the last two times that Buffalo has faced the Bengals, they were critical games for the Bills and the Bengals beat them convincingly. I ask myself what is different about this Bills team, I the answer is that the differences are not earthshaking. As has been pointed out, the Bills are down a couple of key defensive players. Linval Joseph may help at the 1T spot, but it's expecting an awful lot to think that a guy who's been sitting at home watching football can come in on a day or two of practice and adequately replace a guy who has proven to be one of the better 1Ts in the league. I think Dodson is probably at his ceiling now. He's not going to get a lot better, and his best is a long way below what Buffalo got from Milano. Dorian Williams is on a learning curve and we have no idea how quickly he can improve. We just know he has a long way to go. Overall, Buffalo has to give evidence of a lot more self-discipline and mental toughness than the team has shown the last few weeks. That said, I picked Buffalo to win in out Pick-em league.

RiotAct Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 7 hours ago, Sammy Watkins' Rib said: If we can beat tomorrow and drop them to 4-4, Allen might not have the opportunity to get his revenge on them in the postseason. Not only would they be .500 but they would be 0-4 in the conference. They are 4-0 against the NFC West. Pretty crazy that they have played all 4 NFC West teams already. Yup - Cinci would have to go 7-2 down the stretch most likely if they lose to us on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. The Bills are obviously not 0-2 against the Bengals in their last two games against them given that the first game lasted less than one quarter. But it sure feels like we are 0-2.

The Wiz Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 I don't know what it is, but for some reason the move they made last week with Poyer to the safety/LB hybrid role makes me think they are going to do something new we have yet to see on defense.

Pretty sure the Bills and Bungles have split their last two meetings. ( I know I know , different QB and all that, but projecting an entire game on essentially a drive apiece is silly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shemp Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Bottom line, any team can kick the ass of any other team any given Sunday. So you better be prepared to kick ass or you're gonna get your ass kicked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goin Breakdown Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 So overhyped. At least we can maybe beat moderately and under hyped teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuckyBoys Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 well we just stunk again in the big moments Hard to win with one dimensional offense No clue where they go from here but the team clearly has lots of things to fix to think about making a run in years to come Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight Hucklebuck Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Burrow is a check down artist. No real team is scared of the Bengals, that’s why the Ravens, Eagles, Chiefs will walk right through that team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy Hix Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 On 11/1/2023 at 8:24 AM, SCBills said: Sure, it could .. maybe people who have some strange doom complex can provide more detail as to why they think this will happen … or they can just make themselves feel better by posting negativity, absent explanation, about their team. I actually wouldn’t pick us to win this game if I had to make a choice. I absolutely think we can, but we haven’t shown anything in terms of player execution, consistency and coaching this year, or against this team, that makes me confident in that. …but I’m not going to plaster social media with “this might get ugly” posts so that I can cope better. This team deserves better than that and if they want to be taken seriously, will come out and win Sunday Night. Can you do psychoanalysis on people who are oblivious to reality next?

Mantis Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 I don't know if they are overhyped. I just know that WE cannot play against them. I'd rather play KC (and I felt that way before tonight). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll probably still make the playoffs. We just don’t match up well with the Bengals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
