Time To Pay The Bills

[mfbmike]

Week 11 Preview
Sunday, November 21, 1:00 PM @ Cleveland Browns Stadium

(5-4) @ (5-4)



A season ago, it was the Bills defense carrying the burden of a struggling offense, leading the team to a number of victories with interception returns and the like.

However, it's quite the opposite so far this season.

Trent Edwards is showing he can be a solid decision maker while Marshawn Lynch continues to be the workhouse that he is.. Lee Evans, Terrell Owens, and newest Bills' receiver Davone Bess are a triple threat receiving core.

But the Bills defense has been nothing short of atrocious as of late and is ranked amongst the leagues worst in yards and points allowed. And is a good reason for the Bills 5-4 record heading into week 11 after the Bills busted out of the gates, winning their first 4 of the season.

The Bills had a bye week to prepare for what could shape up to be an exciting playoff stretch considering the ground the Dolphins and Jets have been able to gain with the Bills' recent struggles.

Browns quarterback Brady Quinn is ranked second in the league with 14 interceptions thrown on the year and could be just what the doctor ordered for this Bills defense to turn it around if the Bills hope to make a repeat postseason appearance this year.

looks like bess was a good pickup for you

No shit?

I don't know if I'm going to have enough salary space to bring back T.O. I mean, I could but he is aging and I think I want to get younger.

Not to mention, Davone Bess is the shit SON.

Oh and your man Clint Ingram had a 2sack game against the Browns.

looks like bess was a good pickup for you

A beast out of the slot. Hoping his rating jumps big this offseason.

[goDawgs1433]

I was about to come in here and post exactly what Macken said. Either way, Bess was a great and not overly expensive option for you...as was Clint Ingram.

Defense played well in that one, even if it was the Browns...still think there's work to be done to get better there though. Great at forcing turnovers but you still give up a TON of yardage. lol.

lol, I think it has a lot to do with the way my offense runs. We really don't nickel and dime it up and down the field. Most of our passes gain 12+ yards or so so I really don't dominate possession of the ball, aside from a couple games this season.

My defense is out there a lot and I really think that's why it seems I give up so many yards. rofl.

Not to mention the cpu cheeses the fuck out of these slant routes up the middle.

I think my offense will take care of itself at this point. After this year's draft it seems like O-Line will finally be able to hold it's own to give Edwards a chance to do what he does. Definitely going to look to upgrade my secondary/defense this offseason.

Week 12 Preview
Sunday, November 28, 1:00 PM @ Ralph Wilson Stadium

(6-4) vs (4-6)



Yes, the Bills might've fooled critics around the league into thinking they were possibly Super Bowl contenders after a week 1 upset of the reigning Super Bowl champs and a 4-0 start.

And yes, the Bills have hit a bump in the road and now sit at 6-4.

But they certainly haven't had it as bad as the Chiefs, who after a 4-1 start to the 2010 season, have now lost 5 straight.

Granted, their last 4 losses have come against some of the upper echelon teams in the league (Titans, Colts, Seahawks, Chargers) but 5 straight losses are hard to digest for any team.

Matt Cassel is throwing interceptions at an alarming rate, only second in the league to the Browns Brady Quinn, who the Bills torched for 4 picks and 5 sacks a week ago.

If the Bills can get the same pressure on the quarterback as they did a week ago, it would go a long way to help them earning a second straight win.
