Unbelievable I don’t know why but I kind of want to see the offense without those two guys. Shakir and Kincaid could be the future. Maybe the future is now? I would be excited to see what happens.

They will be fine and the home crowd energy will carry them over and the D will be able to survive this for another game. It is a one loss tournament at this point. . Going into it with a survivors mentality concerns me. I want to be realistic optimistic and have confidence swagger all at the same time. I am falling short in my confidence and it bothers me. I need some Bills zubaz influenced MAGIC to come over me people. Enough of this negative thinking. GO BILLS!~!~! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it comes down to needing our defense to need a big stop, we are going to be outmatched in certain positions. I don't like this at all. If we don't have Bernard and Johnson too, we are in trouble. They’ll play a lot more zone than man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magox Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 16 minutes ago, SoonerBillsFan said: Its gonna be damn tough on this defense. McDermott needs to call up some well thought up blitzes, or zone dogs to keep Macrybaby in check Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised to see us do the opposite. I expect 4 man rushes to be the majority of the defensive snaps but I think McD will run more 3 man rushes than blitz packages. Thats what Cincinnati did in the 2nd half against them when they came back and won the AFC championship game 2 years back 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want them to be left short of WR in the most important playoff game this group has ever played? If Diggs were to end up unable to go at some point during the game you would be comfortable with them having two punters active and 3 wr? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the gameplan should probably revolve heavily around Cook, Shakir and Kincaid.. as they attack KC where they are more vulnerable, but you do need functional outside WR’s. We’re already down Gabe. Sherfield/Harty can handle his role, but after them, it’s a slot/gadget guy who’s barely played in Isabella. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefs just put up 26 at home against the dolphins practice squad defense. I would not be surprised at all if they don't score 20 points. Maybe not. Still, let's score 30 just for kicks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think Klein suits up. Yea I kind of think there is no debate, Kein and Isabella are both going to be active. If martin is not able to punt tomorrow morning I imagine they have to bite the bullet and IR him and sign haack to the active roster. If the bills were in a situation in the second half of the game with only Shakir, Harty and Sherffield as the only healthy wr the chiefs would blitz them to death and just take their chances with dump offs and tackling them. If anyone wants to create a situation where Allen has to be superman not activating isabella and being short at wr sunday would be the way to do it.

BlazinBill Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 26 minutes ago, Big Blitz said: The Steelers WRs are 10x better then the Chiefs. We won’t lose this game bc Benford can’t go. Having Douglas Dane Elam should be enough. Now at LB….especially vs the run and Kelce is different story. Need the D line to have its best game. And score 30. I was hoping to have Rapp back as much as I'm not the biggest fan of his. It's good to have safety depth so we can use Poyer as a big nickel role more effectively- I feel like it's big with Kelce always making his impact- Is Siran Neil still on this team?I feel like he used to have a bigger role- but I don't remember that last time I heard his name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would have to be injury settlement cut - then re-signed but at no guarantee that the team must do that. It's risky for him to accept. Further, if the bills do this or just ir him he is done for the remainder of season. He can't come back to active. I have a feeling they're testing haack and see if he can offer enough to make ir an option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
