Grier and Allen make this preseason so much more interesting.

Hol up a minute. Hurney with a full offseason under his belt only has a 7-9 record to show for it. 

Let's wait to see how we do this season before we crown him. 

I say this believing 100% that he has improved the team immensely this offseason, but still, gotta wait to see what the product on the field is first. 

Pretty fair assessment he looks like he has done a  good job this offseason but we will find out soon.

I’m really looking forward to seeing us FINALLY run a 3-4

You must have missed it the first time around with Capers.  95 and 96 were great. A lot of sacks and turnovers.  97 not so great and 98 was awful.  Capers started using a 4 man front at the end of 98 because they could not stop the run.  I think that ruined the 3-4 for me forever.

We haven't run one since but it was so bad because we had Morabito, Peter and I think Gilbert there on the DL providing no pass rush to help out Mike Minter and a bunch of JAGS at best in the secondary.

Is that really your argument against it?  20 years ago?

Jason Peter was probably so high that you and I remember that better than he does.

    • I thought this presented an interesting point. It is fair to wonder now, about switching the two QBs as so many tried to do that first year where Bryce was trash and CJ looked great.  It is almost the reverse scenario now and I wonder what CJ would look like here with better weapons better coaching and better protection. Overall, compared year one.  If each player had been in the other place for the three years. I would love to see CJ with this team now.  Just to see. 
    • I really have no clue what to expect sunday.  To quote one of my favorite bands of all time, Operation Ivy "All I know is that I dont know".  We could win, hell we could win convincingly, we also could lose in blowout fashion.  We could be in a back and forth game with whoever has the ball last winning.  I legit HAVE NO CLUE.  This isnt the dominant bills teams of the past, Allen is still elite and can win any game by himself.  That said, heres my stab at looking at things. Our defense is made to stop this kind of team.  Strong against the run, a great corner but meh talent around the field.  We've stopped prolific run offenses this season.   Javonte Williams - Season low yards and ypa against us. De'Von Achane - Season low yards and ypa against us Breece hall - 3rd worst yards in a game Fact of the matter is, we arent what we were last year, we are a good run defense and that lines up well against the bills, Stop the run.  For once the lack of moving Jaycee might be a good thing, he will essentially lock down a side and without multiple real weapons thats fine.  Buffalo does not have an elite guy, theyve got a gaggle of average dudes.  Allen will stay away from Jaycee, it will be on Mike Jack and Chau Smith Wade do to their part and they will be matched with guys they can play at the level of. On offense, we do what the bills are bad at.  We run the ball well, and they suck at stopping the run.  Rico and Chuba will need 30 carries.  Andy Dalton will need to be opportunistic.  My big fear is what we learned last year, Dalton can get overconfident and make bonehead throws.  Its this simple.  Run the ball, stop the run.  Dont turn the ball over.  If we do these 3 things, we will be in a position to win in the 4th quarter.
