John Forcade...in 1989, the 6-7 NO Saints came into Buffalo on December 10th with the snow and cold and beat the Buffalo Bills 22-19 with that scrub of a QB. 

 

On any given Sunday! 

 

I was at that game. It was *really* cold. The loss was incredibly awful to watch, especially against a dome team.

I remember that game.  It was a shocking! Any given Sunday is correct!

It was one weird game. Here are the details.  Bottom line is Kelly had one of his worst games and the two teams were pretty close in record.  Oh and this was the height of the "bickering Bills".

I'm on the opposite side. I want to see the Bills play SALL of our stud starters into the 4th Q and POUND the Saints. Like, 50+ points by the Bills. Then maybe rest them in the mid-4th Q. Let's see our Bills kill a team that they should destroy.

Then, sit back and watch the Ravens vs Chefs at 4:00. Sooooo gooooooooood!

 

You gotta play the long game, you need to have all starters as fresh and as healthy as possible for the playoffs. You also probably want to get the role players more experience where there's more margin of error in case they are needed later in the season. The Bills need to take them out like they did the Jets. Defer the ball and go up 3 scores 17-20 points by half and then build the lead out to 24+ going into the Q4 and grind the clock in garbage time. No need to risk injury when there's not much of a difference between a 25 point 4 score lead and a 35 point lead...

No matter how bad this team is, you still have to take them seriously. It’s the nfl. Come ready to play. The last time the saints were here it was one of the most embarrassing days in recent Bills history. The saints are the worst team in the league, i get it. There is zero excuse for it to be close. But taking your foot off the gas is how that happens. Take it serious, line up and send them home with a L

Hope so, I certainly imagines scenario where we cool off this week and play a close game with them.

Big Nick Broeker back with the Bills bringing back their former 7th rounder. I know some people were upset when he got claimed. Still only 24 years old too so still some time to develop him under the Kromer system. Not surprising the Bills added a LB as well with Milano down and them running really thin at LB with Jenkins now out. I expect Ciarlo to get the call up this week to be the ST's guy.

Still a ways out from this game, but the random thought I just had was that if I had to guess, Landon Jackson gets a jersey Sunday.  Perceived easier opponent and McDermott saying that he was close to getting one last week has me thinking they will take this opportunity to see where he's at in his development.  Add in the fact that Bosa can't play nearly the snaps he did last week, I think it might be a good time to see what he has at this point.  I'm not expecting much from him this year, especially early, but any reps are good reps at this point so he can learn on the job a bit.  I have more hope seeing improvement from him next season than this year, but I guess you never know.  He strikes me a guy that will always give max effort and will work on his game, but he's very raw.  But, that said, I do want him to get a handful of reps sometime soon.

Very happy to see the return of Broeker. Though not a plus athlete he clearly understand offensive line play... he can play both guard and tackle... probably a 4 position guy.

 

With the impending free agency of McGovern and Edwards, Broeker could be a starter some day for this team.
