Buffalo is Bizzaro Carolina

Recommended Posts

I just finished watching the Patriots at Bills game from Sunday.

 

I gotta tell you, I feel exactly like I just watched a Carolina game.

 

Buffalo:

 

- Good performance from QB with a mistake here or there thrown in. Had a really good run to keep a drive alive.

- One shifty RB, one bruiser RB

- Offensive line suspect at times

- Overall good defense that got winded late in the game and allowed a game winning drive with big plays downfield

- Bone headed mistakes that can't be explained. For instance, kickoff return getting bobbled and accidentally stepping out of the end zone, ball on the 10. This could have been the difference in the game.

- Offense looks lost and defeated in the 4th quarter.

 

All in all they did some things right, they just don't know how to win.

 

I am now feeling like this game in Buffalo will go into overtime with the winner being the team that doesn't fug up.

These teams are very similar.  I think our DL and their DL are strengths too, and both have secondaries that are weak (at least they can blame injuries).

 

I think, however, our DL puts more pressure on the rookie QB and that leads to more mistakes. 

 

The Patriots aren't that good. 

 

I see Carolina 34-17 based on the injuries to the Buffalo secondary and the fact that we are facing a QB who was inconsistent in college playing his second pro game.

I thought the exact same thing when I watched them. Remind me a lot of us.

I watched the condensed version from nfl network last night myself.

I came away with the impression that we should beat them handily quite honestly.

Also think the Patriots are going to have the worst year they have had in a long time and might even miss the playoffs.

The only way the Patriots miss the playoffs is if Brady gets hurt, and even then they'd have a shot.

 

The AFC East division is absolute garbage. They could have gone 8-8 last year and made the playoffs.

    • Tua has maybe 2 passes further than 5 yards. 
    • I'd give the rookie WR's more credit than that. Bryce did actually earn most his yards against the Chiefs, but that Saints game was all rookie WR's yac. It was probably like 80ish of the 170 total passing yards were yac by JT and Coker. The throws have been accurate though and he's obviously playing with more confidence. I still want to see something over 40 yards in the air at some point that looks good/accurate
    • We’ll agree to disagree.  Maybe change my wording to better roster would have been more accurate. Gamecocks have some nice defensive players….but they are also thinner than Clemson all around.  it’s at Clemson.  Dabo.  Better overall roster.  And they are favored slightly….which essentially supports my prior post that either could win but if you had to pick without a dog in the race Clemson is the smarter pick.   straight up vs Carolina? I trust Clemson’s O more than Carolina’s.    Top 10 vs top 60 with the QB edge.  And Clemson’s D has some real studs on it too.   Which is what Vegas says.   I’ll make my pick game day.  Will depend on who can and can’t suit up for Clemson.  Carolina has been much healthier this year.  But ST could be the difference.  That Louisville game exposed some massive flaws in their kick game.  You don’t really want ST weakness showing itself vs Beamer
