Post Can the Bills beat the Colts?

The guy who wrote this article doesn't seem to like the Bills chances, but he does seem to like their moxy.

KRT Wire | 11/10/2006 | Bills understand reality as they prep for Colts
By Reggie Hayes
The News-Sentinel (Fort Wayne, Ind.)

FORT WAYNE, Ind. - It's questionable whether the Buffalo Bills have the talent to upset the undefeated Indianapolis Colts. I'm guessing they don't.

The Bills' starting running back, Willis McGahee, is out with a rib injury, which is the best news the Colts' defense could hear outside of Bob Sanders being 100 percent healthy. (Sanders, again, is questionable to play.)

Talent issues aside, I like the Bills' straight-forward approach.

They're not playing coy. They're not hiding who they are. They're completely upfront in the fact that, in order to beat the Colts, they'll need to keep Peyton Manning and his offense pacing the sidelines as long as possible.

The Colts (8-0) play the Bills (3-5) at 1 p.m. Sunday at the RCA Dome.
Well, its all well and good to not play coy, but they still gotta play football, and the Bills just don't have the horses to beat Indy, especially without Willis McGahee around to expose that terrible Colt run defense. At least, that's what I think. How about you?

Re: Can the Bills beat the Colts?

Oddly enough, the Bills and the Colts are almost dead even in Rushing Yards and Total Defense. This should keep the game interesting enough to watch. WIll the Bills win...when pigs can fly. The lop sided Offensive stats should make this a red letter day for Peyton and Reggie.

Manning for President

Re: Can the Bills beat the Colts?

What everyone doesnt know is we have a proven back in ANthony THomas who ran for 95 and a TD against GB. I love the Bills but we dont have much of a chance against Peyton, it would be great to show the NFL we can play with these guys though

Re: Can the Bills beat the Colts?

Yeah, I know of the A-Train. Hasn't been a real good, consistant back since Michigan, really. He'll give you a good game here and there, and he should be good enough to put up 100 on the Colts run D, but he lacks Willis' explosiveness.

The Colts have a pretty good rookie RB in the kid Addai from LSU. I like watching him run. For a rookie, he's got great moves (don't miss the Edge so much now. My hope is that he is taken of the questionable list before the game.

The Bills don't travel well, they're 1-3 on the road, and they're playing in Mannings house. I've got take Indy by 18 in this one.

Cool Re: Can the Bills beat the Colts?

The Colts had the Pats last week and play Dallas next week. This is a classic trap game. Bills pull the upset.

Cool Re: Can the Bills beat the Colts?

You can't always go with the safe pick. I'm hoping I'm right because that would get a lot of people out of my suicide pool...And the Colts almost lost to the Titans at home.....So you never know...
