    Could The Bills Offense Be Better Than Their Defense This Year?

    That's a huge hill to climb.

    Everyone is expecting a dominant defense to be the team's main strength. The Bills are going back to a system that is more like Pettine's was compared to The Schwartz. The Bills got a record amount of sacks under Pettine, but they also gave up some huge passing plays by gambling too much in 2013.

    Schwartz had the better defense. He's still unemployed. That's a head scratcher.

    One of the most underrated signings of the entire NFL off season was Percy Harvin.

    All of the attention went to McCoy and Clay while everyone forgot about Percy Harvin. The Bills can use him anywhere on the field. He is a dynamic playmaker, and he's strong as a bull for a player his size.

    Sammy Watkins, Percy Harvin, Robert Woods, Goodwin, Hogan, and Dezmin Lewis. That's some powerful stuff.

    Clay and O'Leary at tight end. That's a huge upgrade over last year. Chandler and Gragg or Clay and O'Leary?

    The gaping holes at guard? Plugged. Better offensive line coaching? Guaranteed.

    Some people still think that the Bills don't need a great QB to win the Super Bowl, all they need is the right kind of, "game manager," under center.

    Rex Ryan doesn't agree mainly because of Mark Sanchez. Rex doesn't want a quarterback that can manage the game, he wants a quarterback that can win by using his feet and arm too. He wants the black version of Ben Roethlisberger.

    Ryan has been a huge fan of Tyrod Taylor since his playing days at Virginia Tech.

    I think Rex gave Roman a call to be his OC because he really liked what he saw Kaepernick do in Roman's offense.

    "A QB that can run? I would have beaten the Patriots if I had Kaepernick."

    A quarterback that can run and pass better than Russell Wilson?

    I would not be surprised if the 2015 Buffalo Bills offense is the most explosive football Bills fans have seen since the days of Jim Kelly.

      What, you don't think the Bills offense has the potential to be really good in 2015?

      I think they do. You obviously don't.

        Yes, actually, the offense could be 'better than' the defense but it will more likely result from a decent improvement over dog **** on the O side and a backslide from last year on D, as opposed to the D remaining the same (or better) and the O suddenly becoming The Greatest Show on Turf V2.0.

            Marrone running Hackett's offense vs. Roman running the Bills offense.

            That's a big difference. The past no longer applies. The Bills are going to be a totally different team than last year or any other year since 1999.

              You should go on a 49'ers message board and see what they thought of Roman last year.

                Why not?

                Which side of the ball has the most young talent to work with?

                Kyle Williams and Mario Williams could be playing their last year in Buffalo.

                McKelvin could be a surprise cut. Big contracts come due on the defensive side of the ball in 2016 for Gilmore and Bradham, including a $100 million plus contract for Dareus.

                The offense doesn't have to worry about such things.

                  Check the DL salaries and compare them to the OL salaries.

                  Look what round where they were drafted.

                  Yes, we now have an expensive RB, TE and WR, but did very little for the 5 OL positions.

                    So a 2nd year guy who had POTETIONAL to be a great. A guy who is a home run threat but always hurt. A vet who has been just okay. And 3 guys who may or may not be on the roster opening day.. How is this powerful?

                      Good post. What did the fans in San Fran think about Roman the year before in 2013 when Kaepernick took the 49ers to the Super Bowl?

                      He was a genius. No need to look it up, it's a given. Roman was the 2nd coming of Bill Walsh, fans were elated.

                      Roman said that he wanted to test Keapernick's throwing abilities in 2014. The experiment failed, but I give him credit for at least trying.

                      If Ryan and Roman have found what they've been looking for in Tyrod Taylor, the offense could be better than the Bills defense.

                      Who plays the nose? Who plays defensive end? Who are the starting 4 linebackers? Who's the 2nd safety?

                      The Bills offense doesn't have so many question marks as the Bills D does.

                        Depth. Most NFL teams carry at least 6 wide receivers on their rosters.

                          Depth isn't just having wrs in the roster. What makes you think any of them besides Watkins are gonna tear it up? Mainly the bottom 4

                            Hogan has played well. He takes the punishment and holds on to the ball.

                            Goodwin has had a problem with staying healthy.

                            Robert Woods is an excellent wide receiver crying for a good quarterback.

                            Dezmin Lewis could be the steal of the 2015 NFL Draft.

                              If the offense is better than the defense, we're winning the Super Bowl by a good margin.
