This bodes well for us, still not a shoe in, but it is strongly in our favor.

 

I believe Leodis McKelvin is playing at a high level right now and Terrence McGee is healthy now, no?

 

I'm with you, Jackson; Ronnie needs to step up to the plate BIG TIME... I love the guy, but he needs to crank it up!

AND, I love your sig!!! :)

 

Leodis McKelvin was the best pure cover corner in the draft last year and has the ability to plant and drive like very few can. He is not push over, and may be more of a match for Ginn than people are giving him credit for. It isn't as though Ginn is some highly polished receiver, and McKelvin has the speed and hips to stay in front of Ginn and pick off a pass if the Fins get lax.

 

I read on RotoWire that Edwards is out. Losman kind of worries me back there and he seems to always find Lee Evans. I just hope Joey Porter will be in his grill all day. I will try to find the link:

Don't discount Losman this quickly, he's going to be eager to show other teams as well as the Bills that he could be a legit starter in this league.

 

What about Lynch. Someone slip him some diarrhea medicine on sunday morning. Don't want to cause him harm, but don't want him to harm our team!

 

Missing starters all over the place sometimes makes others play better.

This is surely a don't drink the koolaid game.

Run early, run often, and go deep on occassion.

And play solid defense.

Do not let the guards down!!!

 

That's not what has made us successful so far.

1) Pass short, move the chains
2) Hit the edges with the running game right behind or right outside of Long and Carey.
3) Use screens to annoy Buffalo silly.
4) Pass deep.
5) Grind

Repeat. Norv Turner ball hasn't worked for us this year. We're more like the 2003 Patriot's offense.

 

the good thing is that i don't believe buffalo has the personnel to pull a NE on us. that is, to run a spread offense and throw screens to let the receivers beat us in the open field. after lee evans, their WR corps is thin, and i don't believe their OL is as talented as the patriots' line. hopefully that bodes well for our defense..

 

McKelvin is most definitely a solid Cb, and an excellent NFL prospect. He playing pretty good and of course he still needs some time for further development but his mechanics can keep him with a player like Ginn, who does not make sudden moves to create space. But if he can get behind McKelvin early in his route it could be trouble for the Billygoats.

I think Cromartie had the best overall skills in the draft but McK was a very close second.

 

Has nothing to do with Norv Turner. Their best defensive lineman is out, and that means run the ball to open the pass.
