Hey All. Bills fan here. Thought I would drop by and talk football.
I read through the thread looking for info on what you think about the Bills/Chiefs. Thought you might some accurate info on the Bills. Do not go looking for it at ESPN, as they can't even get our players names right :D While we hate it, we understand it. You can't lose for a decade and...etc. I am going to speak in terms of the general feeling of our fans, not personal opinion. You can see it for yourself at 2 Bills drive. I am just a poster there, not a mod, etc. However, 2 Bills Drive is pretty much the definitive message board for the Bills. Offense QB Our starting QB is Ryan Fitzpatrick, not Trent Edwards. I believe Edwards is about to get cut by the Raiders. Anyway, we like Fitz, but we don't have very high hopes for him. The problem is: you simply don't know what he is going to do from game to game, because... O line Is awful. Then, it's not. Then it is. The general consensus is that we need upgrades here. I don't know how good your pass rush is, but, if you have any studs, they will probably get a few sacks. If the O line is off, your guys will pad their stats. The saving grace here is the offense Chan Gailey(Head Coach/Offensive Coord) is running. We throw a lot of screens/quit slants, so we only really pass protect every 8th play or so. And, we can run the ball with Fred Jackson. RB Speaking of Fred, CJ spiller is not the starter on this team, yet. Jackson is who you have to worry about. He is a player. If he played for the Jets/Pats, you'd know exactly who he was. Spiller has looked much better so far, but he still hasn't exactly learned how to allow a play to set up and follow his blocks, one cut and go, etc. But, last game he ran for 35 yards on one play, against the Lions starters, by doing all of those things right, so who knows? The one thing to look for in this game is you ending up with a LB trying to cover our RBs. Good luck with that. If we get any big plays, this is how. TE/WR The TE position on this team has been a joke for a long time. We'll see how our new guy does. Steve Johnson is a #1 WR. If you don't have any tall and/or physical DBs, he can hurt you. We really don't know who #2 is, yet. We have a bunch of big, tall guys that are all TO wannabes. The general feeling is that Roscoe Parrish in the slot is so/so. (Personally, I think Roscoe having a big game is the only way we do anything on O, and the RBs catching balls.) Defense D Line Marcell Dareus will be Defensive Rookie of the Year unless Von Miller stands on his head. Dareus has blown up multiple double teams, and frankly embarrassed people. They have pulled him out of games to avoid injury, even with the starters still in there. Our run Defense is massively improved. Kyle Williams is playing well. This is the one position where we now have quality starters and depth. We have been screwing around playing both 4-3 and 3-4, but we finally have the players to make that work. You will probably have to beat us with the pass. LB Merriman. It's all about Merriman. We may not get Andrew Luck next year because of him. :banghead: When he has been in, it's literally been lights out. They haven't played him much since the first game, because he showed everything he needed to in that game. Again, avoiding injury, etc. Our other OLB, Kelsay, has been a fan whipping boy for years. Nobody knows why he is on the team, never mind starting. We got lucky by getting ILB Barnett and Davis in FA. We also drafted a few young LBs that look good. But, this entire unit depends on Merriman staying healthy. If he is in there, (and believe me I am shocking myself by writing this, so I can only imagine your reaction), the Bills look like an elite Defense...even with Kelsay. DB We have had some good CBs here for a while, but, this year they have looked only OK. We haven't run anything but vanilla defense so far, so it's hard to tell. I am thinking that this unit will probably get over a lot because of the improved front 7. That's good, because they are probably average. ST We have taken a step back on ST in preseason this year. Our kicker can hit from 50 consistently, our punter is top 3 in the league, but our cover guys look awful. Same with return. We'll see if that changes if Roscoe returns punts and Jackson returns kicks, because neither has all preseason. Well, that's it then. I would be shocked if we win. So would most of our fans. Most likely it will be a punt fest, until our D gets tired and you start putting a few plays together. We don't expect our O to do anything because our line sucks. Of course, we are talking the Bills, so anything can happen. :D Even in the SB years, this was the case. From what I can tell, the only thing that saves us is if you turn the ball over. My pick: Cheifs 23 Bills 10....and the TD comes from our D. |
Nice write up.

Dareus, K.Williams and Merriman will be a handful for the Chiefs Oline.
|
You know what I think, I think the Buffalo Bills are a lot better than their record. This could be a 7-9, 8-8 team....Very much like the chiefs you know? they could be 7-9, 8-8?
We might see the battle of the 8-8's go at it. Ain't that going be fun? Enjoy the game this Sunday guys! |

Merriman NEVER came back from that first knee injury, and I wouldn't expect more than 5 sacks from him. |

I highly expect this game to be ugly. Much like it was last season. I still expect us to win.

WR Steve Breaston will wear #15 (formerly #19)
DL Allen Bailey will wear #97 (formerly #71) DL Amon Gordon will wear #99 (formerly #64) S Sabby Piscitelli will wear #42 (formerly #49) TE Anthony Becht will wear #88 (formerly #87) |
Go over to Billszone for a good laugh....they are all convinced Dareus, Williams, Merriman and Nick Barnett are going to dominate our offense.

Between him, Barnett, and the addition of Dareus, we're much better. |

Unless that collection of no names comes out like the new 85 bears, we'll win... they have two good safeties & a runner with homerun potential, though he rarely did squat last year. As long as the D doesnt phone it in, its a win. |
Becht got jinxed the moment he got #88. Wow.

Just trying to rile you guys up a little. Over on the Bills boards it's all doom and gloom. Should be a real interesting game and could go either way.

Don't go by last year's game. Front 7 are a totally different animal (with or without Lightsout)

The Bills have ONE winning season in the last 11. They're really shitty. How about these awesome quarterbacks: Kelly Holcomb JP Losman Trent Edwards Ryan Fitpatrick Drew Bledsoe was like a tiny god to them. |

Yeah you're probably right. The Bills aren't even close to sniffing the playoffs this year. They'll have their share of implosions too. Having said that, however, they'll also have a few butt whoopins to dish out. That's how it is with a talented but young team. We'll see on Sunday which team shows up.

OK, you win. I can't find a way to match your swift repartee and ironclad logic. I'll just go on back to the Bills boards where I belong and stop bothering the elite fans of the NFL. Just one last thing. Did you guys ever wish you played in the real NFL like the AFCE for instance or are you happy just chuggin along in the junior varsity west?

Where were all these bills fans last year when we played them? lol

That guy is right though, we do have a Cardinals thread on our front page, wtf is that shit?

Yup, we've been a doormat for over a decade. But things have a funny way of turning around. I was there when it happened in '88 and this team has the same look about it that one did.

B) The Chiefs can take advantage of pretty much every matchup, cause the Bills suck. C) The Bills have some of the best uniforms in the league. |
