Is your defense better than Seattle's?
You've already lost two home games, for crying out loud and had to squeeze out a win against the Titans.
It's the NFL. Anything can happen. I'm not saying it won't be a tough game. But the Bengals do not fear Bluster Boy, believe me. And where will they attack Bluster Boy's defense? Everywhere.
Thanks, but that didn't really answer my question.
I wasn't asking about the Jets' defense in 2013. I'm asking where you would attack the 2015 Bills' defense? An answer like "Everywhere" kind of says--right or wrong--that you don't really know much about the Bills' defense, or--in the very least--can't identify how you'd attack it.
I don't remember Rex ever having a defensive front anything close to what he has here. You're free to disagree with that, and I'm happy to hear your argument if you do.
Regarding Buffalo's D vs. Seattle's, they're nearly identical. Both average 5.2 yards/play allowed and allow 35% 3rd down conversions. Seattle is a bit better against the run, allowing 3.5 YPC to Buffalo's 3.8, whereas Buffalo holds the advantage in pass defense, allowing 6.3 YPA to Seattle's 7.3. Seattle has 10 sacks to Buffalo's 9, but Buffalo allows an opposing passer rating of 78.8 to Seattle's 97.2.
You're free to draw your own conclusion.
