After us beating the 49ers physically it is a good point. The Bills will have to come out and be a totally different team on both sides
of the ball than what we have seen when we have played them if they want to pull out a win. I just don't see it if Burrow is playing
like he was against the 49ers, Mixon is running like he was and our Defense being so opportunistic.
We will see, should be a fun game though. Dawson Knox could give us some problems if he is healthy. TE's have been carving us
up, might be my one concern. Get Nick Scott out of there and put in Jordan Battle please...

Bills won't forget the refund comments.
Eke out a close one at home.

What do the refund comments have to do with this game again?
That was motivation for us at the time, not for the Bills going into this game.

I think some of Bengaldom is taking the Bills far too lightly because of the playoff game. As much as the Bengals legitimately dominated that game, there were some critical factors that we'd be silly to ignore:
- No Von Miller
- The snow neutralized whatever was left of the Bills pass rush and gave the injured Bengals offensive line a meaningful advantage.
- All else aside, beating good teams by 17 points should not be regarded as an ordinary event.
I expect this to be very close and very difficult. I also think there might be some problems defensively that have shown up the last two weeks before being patched up by timely red zone stops. If that patching is even slightly less effective, there's potential for a flood gates event. The secondary has to be better, primarily the safeties.
I'll give the Bengals the edge at home, but only slightly. It might be a shootout. 34-31.

Can we have Solomon Wilcots call the game? I want to see Bills fans have a stroke every time that he calls them the "BEELS." Just what is a "beel?" I have no ***** idea. I guess Josh Allen looks like a "beel." Hopefully they can beel off a win!

My prediction is that I'll be at home watching the game and I will do a lot of touchdown dances. If the weather is clear, I can get the Paducah NBC station on antenna, but if not the stream works well too.

Tony Pike does the same thing every day on 1530, but he's a UC product and a local radio personality, so it comes off as endearing. Or, annoying Yeah, probably that.

I'm confused. We're the home team. How can the Bills "eke out" a close win at home if they're in Cincinnati?

You're thinking about Chris Simms.

Peak Von Miller wouldn't have influenced the game enough, let alone 33+ year old Von Miller, to make a difference.
The snow was insignificant on the field, unlike my seat where i was freezing my *** off.
Agreed - you guys should revel in that one.
I don't think this game will be that close. The Bengals are just a much better team than the Bills right now.

He's alive and on the Bills roster. I'll allow it.

Bills fans and players felt a certain time of way, especially after the comments were made after the game.

No it was definitely Romo commentating.
I suspect this game could end the Bills/Bengals brotherhood.....

Meh. I doubt it. We aren't expecting a win. Just hoping for one.
