People have been talking about the '89 game all week, but the other ones were 2001, 2009, and 2017. Not exactly the best Bills teams. https://www.footballdb.com/teams/nfl/buffalo-bills/teamvsteam?opp=20&ha=H Edited September 24 by Low Positive 1 Quote
RiotAct Posted September 24 Posted September 24 think there’ll be a streaker at this game too? It can be a new tradition every time the Saints cone to town! Quote
CincyBillsFan Posted September 24 Posted September 24 I get that this is the NFL and there is no such thing as "name your score" but this is a great match up for the Bills for the simple reason that McD's D eats up inexperienced, young QB's. Spenser Rattler is the kind of QB that the Bills frustrate into 3 & outs and TO's. Both of which are deadly when facing the Bills O. The game may be closer then some think it should be as McD and company continue to pace themselves but it's hard to see the Saints actually springing the upset here. Quote

BillAndPhilFan Posted September 24 Posted September 24 I'm flying over from London (UK) for the Saints game. It’ll be my 7th visit to Orchard Park – the 1st was in 2011 - and 7th different opponent. The Bills have won all the previous 6 (their visits to London are a different story!) and I expect Sunday to make it 7 for 7. Hope to come back next year for the new stadium but I’ll be 80 by then so who knows… Go Bills! 10 12 1 Quote

I think people just remember week 1 where he like almost everyone not named Ed Oliver had a bad week. Miami was one of the worst games I've seen him play. He was getting beat a lot. I know Tyreek Hill is a tough matchup for any CB but I'm not used to seeing Benford getting dusted as much as he was in that game. 1 Quote

Call up Frank Gore Jr so Cook can get some rest too. The only thing that can go wrong in this game is someone important gets a new injury or aggravates an existing one. 4 Quote

The game may be closer then some think it should be as McD and company continue to pace themselves but it's hard to see the Saints actually springing the upset here. Teams like the Saints rarely keep the game close and when they do the Bills never feel like they are going to lose and almost never do. More often, this is a blowout game by 20-30 points, especially against an NFC opponent that doesn't know who Josh Allen is. Think Seattle and San Fran from last year except the Saints have far less talent than either of those teams. Bills might take a little time to get going..it might seem close going into the half like 14-10 or something but then the game ends up 37-13. Once the Bills start the scoring barrage, usually mid-second quarter, they don't stop til the end of the game. If it starts from the beginning of the game, it could get ugly by half-time and be like the Jags game from last year. 7 minutes ago, HappyDays said: Keep all of them out of this game.

skibum Posted September 24 Posted September 24 32 minutes ago, bills742 said: The silver lining is that a lot of depth players are getting meaningful minutes during a 'light' spot on the schedule. Middle of a home stretch vs. mediocre non-conference opponent with a young QB. Heck, sit as many starters as you can get away with! 1 Quote

I think he takes the entirety of his practice window. Free roster spot while ramping him up. So week 7 or 8. 1 Quote
