You can say this for the Buffalo Bills secondary: It's a confident bunch. With the Bills hosting Cincinnati on Saturday at Ralph Wilson Stadium, cornerback Drayton Florence and safety Donte Whitner used their Twitter accounts to communicate with Bengals wide receivers Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco.
Florence tweeted, "Batman and Robin a comin 2 the Ralph. So call me 'Mr. Freeze' this week. I wanna hear yal on 3rd down @ the Ralph #1secondarynthaNFL."
In case you didn't know, Owens and Ochocinco refer to themselves as Batman (Owens) and Robin (Ochocinco), and Mr. Freeze is a nemesis of the caped crusader.
"That's for the whole secondary, not just me," Florence said after practice Sunday morning. "For this week, address us by Mr. Freeze. We're just going to go out and try to shut them down."
Whitner's tweet to Owens and Ochocinco referred to the Bills' 34-21 win over Indianapolis last Thursday: "Hey @terrellowens and @OGOchoCinco did u guys watch our Indy Film yet? Hope so, have a great day guys."
"It's all a lot of fun, but when we go out there on the football field we expect to go out there and have a great showing against those guys," Whitner said Sunday. "We feel like we're one of the top secondaries in the National Football League and we have to go out and show it each and every Sunday."
Florence and Whitner have a right to boast, especially after last season.
The Bills' pass defense ranked second in the NFL in yards allowed (184.2 per game), interceptions (28) and passer rating by opposing quarterbacks (61.1).
