After missing the playoffs for an eighth straight season in 2007, a handful of Buffalo’s defenders got together and took a closer look at just what it was going to take on the field to perform well enough to qualify for the playoffs. Through three games in 2008 they’re on the right track.

“As teammates, we came up with the goal of what we want to hold them to on the ground and what we want to hold them to in the air,” said Chris Kelsay of opposing offenses. “So far this season we have reached those goals. We have taken them very seriously and we strive to achieve those goals each and every week.”

The Bills defenders examined all 12 playoffs teams from last year and looked at what their defenses surrendered in both rushing and passing yardage per game. They then took the average of those postseason clubs and came up with their own goals for the 2008 campaign.
