Week 3 (2-0) Denver Broncos @ (1-1) Buffalo Bills

[jbd345]

Our defense will keep it close but our offense won't be able to keep up. I smell another heartbreak for the Bills. 14-10 Denver with the W.

That's basically my feeling on this matchup as well. I just hope the offense shows up because if they put up a performance similar to last week there's going to be a raining of boos the likes we haven't seen at New Era Field in ages.

If tyrod plays bad...again. I can't see how much longer McDermott will stick with him. The time to give the rookie a shot is approaching.

Yeah, some real crappy calls IMO.


Still, it's an improvement over last week for the Bills so far. They're scheming better and the offense is at least on the move. Taylor still shows inaccuracy at the worst times (that one throw to Jones in the open field that he completely whiffed on) but by and large the offense is looking like an actual functioning unit.

The defense has held its own though they're really picking on White whose been caught making rookie mistakes though I loved that play where he able to gather himself and go back to knock the ball out of the receiver's hand. That was a huge play from him and shows he won't give up on a play which is a trait you always want to see from a player.

Oh my god, Denver does a fake punt on their own 25

I would say that was the most stupid thing in this game but nope, Von Miller does the idiotic thing by pretending to lift Tyrod Taylor up which basically sealed the Broncos' fate. It's a bit of a ticky tacky call but that's definitely within the letter of "unsportsmanlike conduct".

I loved how the Bills defense took Siemien completely out of his game in the 2nd half and White really rebounded nicely. I'm worrying a bit about Shady but at least he did enough to help put the Bills on top.

That was a terrible penalty and we all know it. If they are both smiling and laughing about it it was a terrible call. It was clear there was no "actual" unsportsmanlike conduct there.

That said, your right, the Broncos did a lot of dumb things today and the Bills were clearly the better team and deserved the win.

There can't be an argument though that that was an incredibly terrible penalty called at the worst time.

The Bills defense still would have stopped the Broncos though.
