Hopefully Fox is a prime Bruce Smith in disguise.....

 

Honestly, no expectations for either player.  We know what Spector is and there's a reason Fox was on the couch a few weeks ago.  But hey.....  we need bodies.  Hopefully they can provide something of substance while they are out there.

 

With how this season has gone, Fox will have a good game showing us some promise. Then end up on the mystery injury report Monday and IR Wednesday

Would like to think this means Kincaid plays since Latu isn’t called up. But since they would have to sign Latu to the active roster for this call up, it is still a mystery until 11:30 Sunday.

 

They could also roll with 2 TEs and a combo of Gilliam/extra lineman. They use to employ an extra lineman all the time until they switched to these TE sets. As far as the run game goes, its just as effective.

We’re going to steamroll Cincinnati and rough up Burrow.  Gonna take out a lot of frustration on this club.

I don't think so but I really hope so. I'll be happy if we just beat the team and get out of this week with no more injuries. Dont care about ugly. Dont care if its a nailbiter and we win by 1 point. Just get the W.  

 

This is the last team on the schedule that I worry about. As much as I talk about how I think the Pats are good, I think we beat them in round 2, so they dont even make me worried.

Nothing is guaranteed in sports, obviously.

I rarely bet on the Bills.  Their point spreads are so overinflated because of their reputation. This is a rare time i’m betting on them minus the points.  McDermott is really good in these “revenge” regular season games.  We owe Cincinnati and Burrow a beat down and Buffalo will play like an AFC powerhouse and deliver at home in some snowfall.

Next weekend against the Pats is the one I want to hammer.  Pats are favored last I knew.  Great betting opportunity if you think the Pats beating us earlier in the year was more of a fluke, which I do.

Morris doesn’t play for the bills anymore? Do you mean Gilliam the fullback ?

Yes, I meant Gilliam. Thanks for the correction.

We are now -6....  That's a big damn line at 52.5-53
