[QUOTE="MR8, post: 789984, member: 13281"] Howdy Fellas, I cam over from "Billievers.com" one of the Buffalo Bills message boards, it's not the biggest board, but it's definitely one of the best out there for Bills football. Smaller group of good people versus the masses if ya know what I mean. I didn't come to troll, I just popped over to have some discussion about the upcoming game. I'll start off with a few comments about the things said in this thread and then leave it for you all to comment. So first off, NONE of us saw the win coming against the Vikings haha, anyone who says otherwise is lying or is one of those homer types who predict a SB every year anyways. We were off to a historically terrible start in the first game, the first half of the second game was equally embarassing, and while we "arrested the fall" sorta speak in the second half against the Chargers, it was also noticeable that the Chargers had reverted into run clock mode and they were not trying to score like they were early in the game. Right now Bills fans don't know what to make of our Offense or Defense. It was night and day last week from what we saw throughout preseason and the first 2 weeks of the regular season. We had high hopes for our defense after we added Star and Murphy in FA to fill holes along the D-Line, and Edmunds was a highly touted but very raw rookie that we were hoping would blossom into our version of Luke Kuechly (Panters Reference because our HC was the DC in Carolina). So we started to see the Defense actually play to the potential we always HOPED they had, but we never expected it to come out so impressively against the Vikings. As for our Offense, our rookie QB was doing everything to help move the ball and energize the team. Our WRs are a heaping pile of GARBAGE though, they can't catch to save their lives, so thats a massive issue that isn't going to help us any. Our O-Line is terrible up the middle, and they are one of the worst run blocking lines in football right now. Plus LeSean McCoy is still nursing torn rib cartilage and I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't play. My prediction is the Packers walk all over the Bills this week. You have some issues across your offensive line, but Aaron Rodgers is Aaron Rodgers. While he may be hampered by his injury, he finds holes and makes plays.
