But then who plays right tackle? Grable?

It will either be Lundt or Grable, assuming Grable is activated.

Anderson was at RT in practice

I am mostly concerned about the state of the playing field.  I read it is going to be an absolute mess.

But that cuts both ways. Maybe it will help the Bills' tackling by slowing down the receivers and backs. It can't make our receivers play worse than the have all season, but maybe the Steelers' DBs will fall down. 

 

I'm surprised at how pessimistic I sound. I do think they'll win this game, but I'm really down on the linebackers, pass rush, tackling--and of course Brady, who I'm beginning to suspect is on the take. What else explains his primitive play calling and failure to adapt to what defenses do? IQ? A bad marriage?

It's funny reading the comments of Steelers fans online.  Pretty much a mirror image of our discussions here.

 

Feels like most games, both fanbases are talking trash & beating their chests.  We're having a doom-off w/ Pittsburgh fans.

What are you talking about ? We need no stinking opposing fans to trash talk our team. We are doing it just fine by ourselves, thank you.

Would love for Johnson or Davis to contribute in the run game.

Alec is nails . He's tough as hell and we will be fine.

As much as I loved Davis's runback, he hasn't been dynamic as a receiver or as a runner. I think this off-season we really need to upgrade the rb2. Johnson has been fine and gotten back into form. He's a good Rb in the committee.

Agreed.  When it comes down to it, I do not believe 17 will allow the Bills to lose this game.   Not sure how it happens, but that's part of what makes 17 fun to watch.   

 

 

 

I think given the beating he took last week, it will only take a few hits this game to make Josh antsy and that’s when he misses seeing guys that are open.  He needs to come out on fire with his first few pass plays.

We complain here, but imagine being the Steelers.

 

Literally nobody takes them seriously. Not even their own fans.

 

They had a 3 game division lead and the Ravens were the betting favorites to win it. Aaron Rodgers and a 3 game lead and everyone was like "meh"

 

New England has a 2 game lead and everyone is putting them in the Super Bowl. 

 

We are going to steamroll them. This is a "McDermott and Beane are great after all" type game where the Sals of the world get to flex a bit post game.

 

Beane might do a "where my haters at!" Style media tour after. 

 

Bills win 45-13
