Time To Pay The Bills

[mfbmike]

They score with 3 minutes or so left in the game and take the lead 21-20.

Edwards ends up going down with a non serious injury on like the first play of the following drive. Ted Ford leads a slow, methodical drive up the field, showing off his accuracy completing 5 of 6 passes.

Folk hits the field goal, we go up 23-21.

For some reason, I squib the following kick and one of their big ass lineman get it and take it to about midfield. I think to myself, I just lost the game. rofl.

Sanchez completes a pass and puts them at about the 35. I'm taking a shit at this point. Luckily for me, they burned all their timeouts on my drive and time expired. That was too close for comfort!

Ted Ford ftw!

great win

Ted ford FTW!

Week 3 Preview
Sunday, September 29, 1:00 PM @ Ralph Wilson Stadium

(2-0) vs (1-1)



The Bills have kicked 2013 on a high note, winning their first two games. Both games on the road and more importantly against AFC East division rivals.

This game will be a homecoming of sorts for the Bills as they play host to the always dangerous Steelers in week 3.

Trent Edwards has been a pleasant surprise so far this season, only throwing 1 interception in his first 2 games. His 1 interception - the only Bills turnover so far on the year.

The Bills are playing efficient, mistake-free football and will need to the same in this matchup if they hope to emerge victorious.

Similar to when the Bills faced the Jets a week ago, the Steelers are also without 2 of their starting offensive lineman due to injury. The Bills D-line will have to take advantage of that like they did last week when they managed to get to Mark Sanchez 5 times.

This will be the Bills toughest game of the season without a doubt, but a win here could go a long way to proving whether or not this team is for real this year.

Steelers Key Additions: LT Robert Brewster (82), CB Lardarius Webb (79), FS Jamarkus Newman R* (78)

Still riding that Trent Edwards train thought you wouldve given that up by now

This is a make or break year for him.

It's his contract year for one and his mediocrity has already shown it isn't getting me anywhere. Sucks he was out for last year's playoffs but what can you do.

But so far, he's looking very good out there. He keeps this up and there won't be any problems. lol.

*edit*

Can someone explain to me why the Steelers find it necessary to have 4 80+ rated running backs? ROFL

Scooter Chapman - 89
Rashard Mendenhall - 85
Shonn Greene - 84
Willie Parker - 81

I mean, their team is pretty stacked but that's just a rediculous logjam. rofl.

[LC AAU]

Wow, that's not even fair.. My second string running back is 51

That game is on my birthday in 2014.

[DoubleDeuce]

You should do an update and show the ratings of some of the stars of today, since you're so far into the future lol

[mfbmike]

Eh, that would take a really long time. lol. If you guys are curious about any particular team, I'd be more than happy to tell you who has "emerged" for them. That and if your curious about any particular player's progression as well.

I didn't say EVERY player lol.

But anyways, care telling me Matt Ryan and Michael Turner's overalls?

I didn't say EVERY player lol.

But anyways, care telling me Matt Ryan and Michael Turner's overalls?

Matt Ryan is now a 94. Turner is now a 96.

They have a 90 rated running back behind Turner who they drafted 2 years ago. They signed Jim Leonhard (SS, Jets) out of free agency last season. Good looking team.

Offense still the dominant aspect of the team, despite them only have having 2 80+ receivers.

How are the Seahawks looking?

Aaron Curry is now rated a 97. They have Darnell Dansby, (FS drafted in 2010, rated a 95). John Carlson is a 94. They drafted 2 offensive lineman last year who are now both rated 85+. Oh, and they just signed Todd Heap out of free agency about a weak ago. He's down to a 78 rating right now though but still solid for a TE2.

Oh, and for some reason, after getting to the NFC conference game (iirc) Matt Hasselbeck ended up going to free agency and being picked up by the Titans.

Their QB now (Jamarious Dorsey) threw for 3,358 yards his rookie season with 23td/22int. 2nd year - 2,395 yards,12td/18int.

Now in his third year, in 3 games so far, 3td/2int and 676 yards. Rated a 77.

They also have Chris Ogbonnaya running the ball. He's also only rated a 77 but the guy rushed for 1800 yards with the Texans last season after Slaton went down. Crazzzzy shit. He's got 136 yards rushing on the ground so far this year (3 games)
