Ok we looked a bit **** against the Pats (with some positives) but that was to be expected. I have said all offseason thats the Pats will always be competitive while Palpatine is in charge.

On to Week 2. Unfortunately I think we are about to run into a buzz saw. The bills are a tough team, with a very good HC and a scary D. Whilst I have never been convinced by Josh Allen, he looked good yesterday - even if it was the Jets.

I honestly think this will be one of our toughest games of the season. Could be a bit grim to be honest - I wouldn't count on the reemergence of Fitzmagic; especially if our already weak WR group is missing Parker.

On the brightside? Tua is going to look fecking awesome on the sideline

I know Howard got the short TD run, but I thought he looked pretty uninspired yesterday. Wonder who starts at RB next week
 
I honestly think the Bills are better than the Patriots, and by a decent margin, so I wouldn't count on this going well.
 
Though the Bills Defense is rediculously good, they are still nowhere as disciplined as the Patriots Defense...Or even maybe the Dolphins Defense, so if Miami frustrates them, they will make mistakes...same goes for the offense of the Bills.

The offense as a whole will be better, so the team will need to be more alert, and hardnosed, but unlike the Pats, the talented running QB the Bills have is easier to control then the man that calls himself Superman, but you have to have a spy on him throughout.

Unlike the Pats game, this will be in Miami, allow the Sun to do it's thing on the Bills darker uniforms.

There is no sugar coating it, this will be a very tough game, but if Miami's coaching is as good as I believe...This will be closer, with a possible surprise winner, if things workout.

I hope it's hot af at Hard Rock and the Bills wilt in the heat. A lot of visiting teams do in early Sep. Buffalo is good and we've got our hands full next Sun.
 
The Bills are better than the Patriots on offense and defense. With the Dolphins showing no improvement in their run defense and the young OL going up against a defensive line which actually can rush the passer, I think it is going to be another long day for the Dolphins. While I would love to see the Dolphins win against the Bills, Parker will likely be out next week and the WR unit without him showed yesterday they just aren’t able to get separation from the defenders.
The Bills are a 4 point favorite in the game and right now I think that will be fairly easy for them to cover. Of course the a Dolphins proved last year that they could win when not many people thought they would be able to. So we will see what happens on Sunday.

The bills might be better but I don’t think they are schemed as well as the patriots in terms of playing to their players strengths.

Although it does sound like they have shifted to more rpo and zone read based offense with josh Allen this year which is smart of them to try and hide his pocket read weaknesses.

Of course can we expose them? Probably not. Definitely not if we don’t stop tbe run and limit the outflank

What are you even talking about? Disciplined?

20+ Yard Plays Given Up

Bills: 34
Patriots: 42
Dolphins: 68

And 5-6 of Howard's snaps were in the 1st 2 drives

He struggled last season. Career lows in Games, runs, yards and tds in his one year as an Eagle.. Injury obviously played a part, but maybe he just isnt the guy he was early in his Bears career.

Hopefully he steps up, but it probably wont be v the Bills! Id like to see some more of Breida, but it will be tough for anyone v the Bills DL
 
I'd like an offense that utilizes our speed, thought that was missing last week.
