Not saying the Bills have a good run D, but here are some reasons they're not as terrible as their #32 ranking.

1. 12 teams have only played 5 games, the Bill have played 6. Thats an entire games of rushing stats missing for those 12 teams.

2. The Jets just rushed for 309 on them. Alot of which was two break away runs by Thomas Jones. A 309 yard game will skew any ranking.

3. The other two big rushing performances allowed - gave up 190 to New Orleans, gave up 200 to Miami, were both in blowouts. Rushing stats compound in blowout games.

I still think we have a good day on the ground since it appears to be the only way we can have a good day. I still think Buffalo is a suspect run D. I just don't think they're as bad as the #32 ranking indicates.

Yeah, these rankings are almost always a little misleading, especially this early in the season. You have to factor in the opponents too and how they like to play offense, because some teams are just set up to run the ball more anyway. Miami is a perfect example, because they firmly believe in that wildcat running game, and the Saints passing game is so good that you can't load up the box, which is opening up their running game big time right now.

We are that bad, their is nothing to worry about fellas. Thomas "i'm average" Jones ran for 200+ on us, Jamal Lewis ran for 120 on us, nuff said.

      Forget trying to draft a QB in the early first round--it's stupid

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      I dont think people realize how hard it is to find a consistent starting QB in the NFL. Byrce will not heart us to a SB but I do think he can manage to get us one or close..go all in on defense and change the Offensive passing game and play calls. I really think our biggest problem is our HC.  Take New Orleans QB for example, switch him and Bryce and I promise you it'll look similar or worse. New Orleans OC is levels ahead of Canales. And as far as the draft goes, in this division with as much rb talent as we face ..the answer...this guy:    Pick up a couple edge rushers in FA along with a corner and plug this guy in Rozeboom's spot. Defense solved. But only if we get a top tier rusher on that dline....jus saying

      World cup ticket prices

      By HeelsPanthersCanes · Posted

      I think I'm going to the game in Los Angeles vs Paraguay, and the England / Croatia game here in Dallas since my mom is British.  For decent seats anywhere in the building(s) it looks like it will be upwards of $7k for the two games.  Insane. Just for perspective, you could buy field level EPL tickets for any one of the top sides in the league, and it would be 10% of the price you'll pay for crappy seats at the World Cup.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      Meh… I knew this thread would turn into a Bryce/Tua comparison, when they couldn’t be further apart situations.   Dolphins catered there whole offense toward Tua, they brought in a coach that would run a Tua friendly offense, the went in got the best most explosive WR in the NFL and paired him the fastest WR in that years draft. Panthers have done the opposite, they went and got a Pete Carroll disciple who likes to run the ball under center, they drafted big slow WR who got little separation in college. Literally the polar opposite of Bryce’s scouting report coming out of Alabama.   Tua was a decent QB 2 years ago, but the concussions, lack of movement have caught up to him. He never had a great arm to begin with but now since he doesn’t want to get hit he’s taking the whole offense down with him.
