This is the reason I think the Bills will handle the Rams. They came out flat versus a surprisingly good Oakland team, and got a bit of a scare. I think they'll be ready for this game.
Let's be fair here. Oakland is 3rd in the league in rushing offense, Seattle is 4th and Jacksonville is 13th. They may not be great teams, but they've managed to run the ball pretty well in the games that weren't against the Bills. You're right though, the Buffalo defense isn't Baltimore '00. They're certainly not even Baltimore '08. But they've done a pretty good job against teams that have managed to run the ball just fine against other defenses.
Pace is good to go.He fully participated in practice yesterday (groin).What timing on this thread--I was just going over numbers again regarding my options this week!
At this point I've got SJax on the bench in favor of Chris Perry vs Cleveland; I could also play them both and bench Bowe vs Den.
It just feels like there's more promise with either of them....it sure would be a perfect trap game though--and I've been trapped once already this season! I just don't see it happening again.
Any updates on Pace?
Care to back that up with anything?
*sigh* Guess it's as good a shot as any...but I sure hate leaving my best matchups on the bench.
There's always exceptions to every rule. I'm concerned that this could be one of those--particularly when it looks like the Ram's games have been 'one on eleven' through the first three weeks.Never sit your studs-----unless you have another stud to take his place.
Well, they give up an average of 84 yards per play on 3rd and 10 in the 4th quarter, when their opponent is within their own 20 yard line. That is indeed not great.
Me too. I don't think Jackson will turn in a bad performance, but this looks like a good week for Perry.
You make valid points, and I think we're on the same page here- they're good, but they're not so good that you would bench a starter of Jackson's caliber, especially since whoever would be replacing him in a 2RB league would have to be, at best, and early third-round pick. Defenses that good come along once a decade or so. The Bills aren't close.Plus as others have mentioned, Jackson catches a lot of passes, so you can't look solely at their rushing defense.
Are we the only two posters who are concerned about this groin issue? He seemed all to eager to tell everyone that is ok and there is nothing to worry about. My prediction for this game is Jackson comes out of the game before it is over due to this groin problem. He missed 4 games last year so it he is susepitable to the injury. I don't have a good feeling about him this Sunday. I hope he makes it through the game because he is on my team in my 1 PPR league.
I thought the BUF D played pretty good last week. Their Offense turned the ball over 3 times giving Oakland great field position, which accounted for most of the points Oakland scored.
Never sit your studs-----unless you have another stud to take his place.
So guys are considering sitting there 4th or 5th overall pick 3 games into the season for a myriad of diff't players
