Golden Wheels Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 The Bills' improved run defense is going to be key next Sunday in Jacksonville. One of the reasons the Titans beat the Jags yesterday was holding Fred Taylor and Maurice Drew to only 33 rushing yards. Jacksonville has injuries to three of their starters on the OL, and they had to be affected mentally by the shooting of Richard Collier. Stroud and company could take advantage of a makeshift line. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=jc-j...o&type=lgns David Garrard was sacked 7 times yesterday, so Schobel and Kelsay should be able to pressure him.

marauderswr80 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 This is a HUGE game for Buffalo. If they can win this game, I have a feeling the team could go on a roll if they do. They have to stop the run and get to the QB. Simple as that. They still have a solid defense too......going to be a tough game. But, Its clearly in the Bills hands. They can win the game......But must play mistake free and get the ball to the play makers and get the running game going a little better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Fong Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 If they win this game they could pretty easily be 5-0 with San Diego coming to Orchard Park for a big game with the Bills coming off a bye. Exciting stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lets_go_bills Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 It all starts with Stroud. If those two Jags Gs are hurt, his life got even easier. I really do think he's playing hungry and with a chip on his shoulder. He was a beast yesterday and if he plays that way in Jax, then look out. He made everyone better.

Chandler#81 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 It is huge. Whoopin' the NFC is nice and we may pull off a couple more W's against them. But it's the conference games (including division) that really count and especially against teams figured to go to the playoffs. The 'W' is the first tie-breaker and the Bills want IN!!.

I agree totally, Stroud looked like a man among boys. He was in the Seattle backfield so often I thought he should have been wearing a Hawks jersey.

LABills08 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 5-0 vs the Chargers would be amazing. The Bills would finally get the buzz they deserve. To be honest, I think the Bills can compete against any team this year and for the first time in a long time, they can go into any game with the potential to win.

Ennjay Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I would like to see McCargo given another shot and possibly rotate in, but who knows if that will happen. This could be crucial. With the expected heat and the difference in playing style vs. Seattle (with Taylor and Jones-Drew, Jax can be expected to run more) the Bills probably need a four-man DT rotation next week.

colin Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 our dline vs back up guards will be brutal. we will stack up, dare them to pass, and i expect another 5+ sack game. perhaps a few turnovers too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's a bit early to know for sure if the Bills are over the hump, and they'll probably have some slide back games, but it's nice to have a positive outlook for the first time in years.

I believe JAX also already lost their starting center as well. Somebody will need to wipe the drool off of Stroud's jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lets_go_bills Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 That D was so in sync, except for when Burleson got retardely open, you can't help but see the affect Stroud had on that entire unit. He garnered a lot of attention and allowed the rest of the line to rush with ease. Puz must be in love with him too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 When we went into the Seahawk game I expected the Jag game to be a loss...... I am not so sure now. It will be a more physical game and harder to win....but I also think that Trent shook some of the rust off as the game went on..... While the defense ended up being just so solid and consistant it brought tears to my eyes......I mean to actually be able to not hide your eyes on a "3rd and 20" knowing that the defense wouldn't find a way to let them get 21? What we need this next week is more production out of our running game....Lynch had some good plays...but was held to under 100 yard rushing We need him to have 100 plus in order to win against the jags. And for christ sake....WILL PEOPLE STOP DROPPING PASSES THAT HIT THEM IN THE HANDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lofton80 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I feel Lynch could have gone over 100 if they played him more in the fouth quarter. This week will be a tough opponent on the road and the game will tell us a lot. The fact that Jax has many offensive lineman injured should help.
