CaptnCoke11 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I have no idea what to expect this game. They could win by 30 or lose and I wouldn’t be shocked either way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I'm always chatting with friends who are fans of other teams and they constantly tell me, "The Bills will be fine, they will destroy the Jags, Giants, Pats, Bucs, Broncos, etc.." Whatever team we're playing that week. I don't know what they're seeing? But now it comes down to this. I think we can all agree that if they lose to Denver, it's over. We can pack it in for the season and not have to stress anymore about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shemp Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I'm sitting out this week. If the Bills can't beat the Broncos under these circumstances, they should just pack it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm at the point I don't really care anymore, the Bills obviously don't care, why should we. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should get clarity when the first injury report of the week comes out today. I'm a little concerned about Hyde since they brought in a safety.

TheyCallMeAndy Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 It’s almost guaranteed that Bernard will be out, I think the only guy to clear concussion protocol in one week this season has been Brock Purdy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DapperCam Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Russell Wilson has actually played pretty well this year despite the Broncos record. His biggest issue has been taking too many sacks. This isn’t a gimme even if Miami did wax them earlier this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2003Contenders Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Is it just me -- or does it feel like the coaches are not taking advantage of the "extra" days they have been afforded the last couple of weeks? I get that the extra time does help with healing the body, etc. but does not seem like they are getting any extra practice reps in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have such a late bye week this year -- week 13, I believe? -- that I'm totally fine with them using the extra days for rest. I don't think lack of reps is what's hurting the Bills this year. At the very least, the opportunity cost of "extra rest" vs "extra reps" seems weighted toward the rest, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then just get disappointed all over again. remember that year that the bills just needed to beat the steelers in the final week to get in the playoffs, and the steelers played all their 2nd and 3rd stringers? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 So does Damar get the start if both Hyde and Poyer can't go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptide Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I will watch Ofcourse because I'm a die hard and will never miss a game, but I'm litterally expecting the worst. Wilson has not been anywhere near what he once was, but watch him put up 400 passing yards and look like 2013 russ. The only thing that will get me excited again is if the bills annihilate Denver. If we win by 30, maybe I'll get hyped again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crazy part is, before the injury I actually liked Hamlin as a player. He’s super aggressive and decisive. He also really hits. I’m not sure why he’s just completely dealt out here. It’s not like the guys we have on the backend are lighting it up this year. We are seeing Hyde get scotched In coverage and both these guys are getting older.

We are seeing Hyde get scotched In coverage and both these guys are getting older. I think the issue with Damar is that he gave up the highest passer rating in the league among all qualifying players last year. I know it's not all him - scheme and context matter - but it was over 140. That's really bad. Basically, he's a massive coverage liability. He does some other things well, but safeties do need to be able to cover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 One message for the team from me. Play real football! The T-Formation was good enough for George Halas and Sid Luckman so it's good enough for Josh Allen and Ken Dorsey. I mean, the Bears won the 1940 NFL Championship Game 73-0 playing that way.
