Philadelphia Eagles @ Buffalo Bills preview

by Steve

Well Coast is a useless POS and is "busy" so I have to do everything. Sorry no Podcast either, re-read the first sentence. Good thing I never have anything to do but watch sports. How big is this Bills game tomorrow? It is a non-conference game but coming off that debacle last week the Bills need to get off the schnide and start winning again (it has been almost 14 days). I'm not feeling confident.

The Bills don't HAVE to win this game but if they are a decent team they'll win either this week or next. With one of the few stadiums that still effects the outcome of games this Sunday is a much more winnable game then next week (I'll be at both).

Is Michael Vick not good? He is 2-5 in his last seven, is perpetually hurt, and is a turnover machine. The problem is the Bills can make anyone look good, possibly even great (see Dalton, Andrew). Jeez. Um, hey Las Vegas Merriman are the lights on?

Terrence McGee better play tomorrow. He is probable. If he doesn't I want his ass cut before 4pm. The guy is more hurt than Vick!! He is taking up a roster spot and hasn't made a play since his days of returning kick offs (remember those days?) The depth at CB is awful and that doesn't bode well with the likes of DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin running wild in the secondary. Someone tell Leodis McKelvin he was a top 12 pick.

Run the damn ball. Give CJ Spiller the freaking rock. I covered that on Wednesday. Furthermore, this team needs to learn how to convert a third down. The o-line sans De Bell is less than ideal but at least Trent Cole is out.

The coaching is a push with two of the worst defensive coordinators in football history and head coaches that are as confused on game day as any. This game obviously could go either way so..

Bills 23 Eagles 24 ouch.
