Waited 17 years for today!  My good buddy (also a huge Bills fan) and I are heading out to the local Bills bar to knock a few (sure, just a few...) back and watch the game. Few thoughts:

1) I don’t think Jacksonville is the 85 Bears but our offense may struggle. Key is to score early and force Bortles to beat you.  On offense- avoid second and long. On defense- same thing except force favorable down and distance.

2) Glad it sounds like Shady can go today. But if he isn’t effective- turn to Murphy early. As noted, a fast start is critical. I have no problem leveraging Tolbert the way we saw last week- between the tackles- but anything in space better be Shady or Murphy. Others have noted that Clay and O’Leary may have the opportunity to get looks today.

3) Coach to win, which is to say- be aggressive without being stupid. One thing Marrone can be counted on is to have a good gameplan in place to start with. McDermott, Dennison and a Frazier have to ready to counter- and for the love of everything please avoid crawling into a shell in the second half. Marrone will punt enough for the both of us...

Not optimistic but hey, crazier things have happened. Especially with 35,000 Bills fans in the stands...

LETS GO BUFFALO!
