Can rookie Chris Hairston stop this man from killing Ryan Fitzpatrick? Coming into this season, one of the reason most prognosticators were down on Buffalo’s chances for success was the (rightfully) much-maligned Bills’ offensive line. We’ve all watched Buffalo quarterbacks get absolutely battered by the pass rush in recent seasons, and this preseason gave no indication that 2011 would be any different on that front. LT Demetrius Bell looked particularly bad. He spent the exhibition season getting torched by numerous pass rushers and almost losing his starting spot to Andy Levitre, who’s not even a tackle. But then a weird [...]

Bills vs. Eagles Preview: Huge Test For Rookie OT Chris Hairston – BuffaLowDown – BuffaLowDown – A Buffalo Bills Blog

One of the many pictures of the Bills defense getting beaten this season. Let’s start with the obvious: last season, the Bills had a truly terrible defense. There were a ton of problems, but the most glaring one was the fact that the Bills couldn’t stop the run. At all. In fact, the Bills ranked dead last in the league against the run, giving up 169.6 yards per game on the ground. Awful. The bad news didn’t stop there: Buffalo ranked 24th in the NFL in total yards allowed (361.6/game) and 28th in points allowed (26.6/game). It’s gonna be tough [...]

BuffaLowDown Needs Writers! – BuffaLowDown – BuffaLowDown – A Buffalo Bills Blog

Keep betting on the Bills, keeping winning money. Let’s be real: a lot of people love football because it’s the easiest and funnest sport to gamble on. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

I figure I should help* my loyal readers out with some gambling advice. Each week I’ll pick four games plus a fifth “Lock of the Week.” *Help not guaranteed to be actually helpful. After my big start in Week 1, I’ve crashed to [...]

Bills vs. Bengals – Buffalo’s Five Key Players – BuffaLowDown – BuffaLowDown – A Buffalo Bills Blog

All this Bills joy can only mean a disaster is on the way. There’s no doubt about it: it’s good to be a Buffalo Bills fan right now. First place in the AFC East…an extremely likable roster of scrappy underdogs…an explosive, entertaining offense…finally beating those freaking Patriots. Who could ask for anything more? I should be riding high right now, but I’m really not. The reason? I am TERRIFIED for Sunday’s game in Cincinnati against the Bengals. That may seem silly. After all, there’s a mountain of reasons the Bills should win this game…but I’m scared about all of them: [...]
