    Keys to Squeaking out a win vs tough Titans.

    Opening line was 7.5
    yesterday 10.5

    anyone giving the Titans a chance?

    personally don’t think there will be sleeping on anyone now that the world non-bigoted up and is watching.

    (Title is for any Titan lurkers. Wanna lift their spirits before they get crushed again.)

    screw good football. I want this over by the half.

    Not so tough anymore. Although I saw that a lot of people are picking the Titans in survivor pools. Dumb.

    Re: Keys to Squeaking out a win vs tough Titans.

    The Bills are going to crush the Titans.

    The reason they lost to them last year was not because of Henry...it was AJ Brown that killed us.....and Josh Allen failed hero ball with 9 minute left in the game with a four point lead.

    Thankfully, he learned his lesson and did exactly the opposite when confronting the same situation in the second NE game, with 7 minutes in the game and a five point lead. Check the film. The difference is astounding.

    First Monday night game in Buffalo since 2018....only the second one since 2008.

    This game could get ugly for the Titans. The Bills may win by two or three scores....maybe more.

    If I was a betting man, I would take the Bills. Watch the spread is going get higher as the bets on the Bills start rolling in.....oh....that has already started moving from 7.5 to 10.5 as sukie pointed out.

    Them not having AJ Brown is huge, as is the game being in Buffalo, unlike the last 2 meetings.

    This game won't even be close.

    Bills are going to wipe the field with them. The Titans have zero receiving threats. Henry looked super old last week. Their best player was Hillard, a backup RB.

    Derrick Henry got the **** knocked out of him last week...literally flying in air....




    Tannehill is washed up....on the unstoppable downside of his career.

    It’s going to be very satisfying to see the Bills “wipe the field” with the fast fading Titans.

    Loved seeing that. Hopefully a bunch more like that coming this Monday.

    Take away Henry early and score early on offense. The Titans game plan will be out the window and the route will be on.

    Re: Keys to Squeaking out a win vs tough Titans.

    I am not worried about us losing to the Titans. My only worry is Josh Allen needs to dial back the running. Yeah he's a weapon as a runner, a huge weapon. And I don't mind the occassional scramble or run on third down. BUT that LA game cannot be the model going forward. Too many designed runs. And the guy does not want to go down. We love that about him but it's not sustainable. He will get hurt if the team/Josh is not a lot smarter about how we use him.

    The one play that ended up with a couple of guys holding onto his body/one leg and Josh is hopping on the other leg? Jeesh! I was praying no one else like jumping up and crashing into them. That could be really really bad.

    Seriously. He is completely fearless. And if you're that big and gifted it's understandable. But this guy is the meal ticket. You simply have to be smart with him. I would have had him out of the game mid 4th also.

    I wouldn't be surprised if they left him in to pad the stats...

    I hope those of you that are extremely confident in this game being a Buffalo blow-out are rewarded for your optimism.

    Why shouldn't we be optimistic? The Bills are a better team (and the Titans are a worse team) than the one that barely lose to them last year in Tennessee. And this game will be at home and the Bills will be looking for revenge.

    I'm expecting 20 and 0 closest game being a 14 point win in KC.

    Nothing wrong with optimism, but I'm pretty confident the Titans were optimistic they were going to crush the Giants and most anybody that follows football felt the same.

    And, they still have Derrick Henry and we still have Tremaine Edmunds.

    1. We haven’t proven we can beat them
    2. They will have a chip on their shoulder after that embarrassing loss, and the last time we played them with a chip on their shoulder was the 2020 COVID game. We all know how that went.
    3. We had a big build up to the opener, followed by a lot of down time. It’s not unreasonable to think we could come out flat.
    4. When we lost last year, it was cuz of run D, and they have the best RB currently in the game. Yes, we did well against thr run last week. And yes, their run game was stifled by a bad team last week, but it’s only one game for each team. Need more evidence than that before believing they won’t run all over us again.
