BillsZone's Bills vs. Vikings Preview
By: Mark Weiler
Where: Metrodome
When: 4 p.m. EDT, Sunday, September 15th
The similarities between these two teams are remarkable. They are two of the NFL’s youngest teams; each has a first or second year head coach; they both tout big-play WRs; both have very young defenses that were among the league’s worst last season; They both feature similar RBs each in their second season; neither has demonstrated good special teams play; both thrive on their offenses and have the ability to put up 30+ points on any given Sunday.
The difference here may very well be Drew Bledsoe vs. Daunte Culpepper. While Culpepper is more the prototypical QB for the NFL of the new millenium, with speed, agility, and power that Bledsoe simply does not possess, he also is a very young QB in only his third full season of play. Bledsoe’s experience may pay the Bills dividends and be the X-factor that pushes the Bills over the top this week in a much needed win.
