Bills tackle double dose of top RBs

Leo Roth
Staff writer


(December 4, 2005)  MIAMI  Rookie running back Ronnie Brown was a handful for the Buffalo Bills the first time they faced the Miami Dolphins this season.

The Bills, however, will have both hands full in today's rematch at Dolphins Stadium between two 4-7 teams hanging on to slim playoff hopes.

In the two months since Buffalo's 20-14 victory in Orchard Park, former NFL rushing champion Ricky Williams has made an effective return to the Dolphins lineup following a one-year retirement and four-game suspension...

Williams has long been a Bills killer.

In five career games against Buffalo, he has averaged 28 carries and 136 yards, including a record-setting 228-yard, two-touchdown performance in the snow at Ralph Wilson Stadium three years ago.

Meanwhile, Brown, the No. 2 overall pick in the draft, gained 97 yards on just 17 carries against the Bills in early October, and Buffalo's next-to-last run defense hasn't gotten any better. There's just no telling what the Dolphins may run for today when they unleash their new-look 1-2 punch, especially if strong safety Lawyer Milloy can't play with a foot injury...

"It's easier to focus on one guy, but the good thing about this is that they have similarities."

Yeah, they are each big, fast and powerful.

Hey good news for ricky it's snowing!!! atleast it is in CT. Lets see if he can continue his proformence and lets hope ronnie can pick up his game. (even though the last 2 games where he didn't have that much yards he barely touched the ball)
 
The RB's and the O-line must be licking their chops.

I have a very strong feeling R&R will dominate today....

Last time I heard comments like this we lost 22-0.

Nothing is a sure thing in this league.

In the last game, the Dolphins didn't even have Ricky Williams, but Ronnie Brown averaged 5.7 yards per carry for 97 yards. The Bills are giving up 146 rushing yards per game at 4.7 yards per carry.

You have to admit the possibility of a huge running game is up there... be possitive...
 
Yet again why did Ronnie have such a small number of carriers. His numbers are great and he only got the ball about half as much as he should have. There run D was ****ty then and we didnt run the ball enough. So who says we dont do the same thing this time. Just because we can see it and the writer from that article can see it doesnt mean Linehan can see it obviously.

Game is in Miami.
 
"I think that's what makes this thing so successful, both of us having the same mindset," Brown said. "That allows us to co-exist. We have a common goal of helping the team be successful and one thing I learned at Auburn, if the team is successful, then individuals get a lot of credit also."

How many top 5 picks say that and meen it?

Damn I'm hungry...
 
Linehan better have his "run the football" hat on today.

Shove it down their throats 35-40 times today. I want to see an UNBALANCED attack. 35-40 runs and 20-25 passes. If we throw it 40 times today I'll snap.

maybe it had something to do wth him fumbling twice...

lol...I really like that part. Hopefully we see a good dose of R&R today. I predict our best rushing game of the year and an impressive win.
