[QUOTE="Shawnsta3, post: 585919, member: 5065"] A lot of complaint about the defense on this forum, and understandably so this week. They failed to stop Julio Jones and went with pretty much the same game plan Arizona went in with the week before in trying to defend him which was a free release with man coverage with Shields or House with little to no safety help over the top, or a soft zone to force the underneath routes in the second half thereby taking up clock and preserving the lead. It did work considering they got the win but come on, if defenses keep letting Jones get a free release with no safety help he'll put up 2000 yards with 20 touchdowns. I think we as fans are often subject to getting too high and low on our team throughout the year. (See [I]8-8 if lucky[/I], best team in NFL after Patriots win, defense is toast after NO's game). If we'd take a more steady approach I think we'd better understand our team along with enjoying the ebbs and flows of the season more. [I] After our defense got blown out by New Orleans they held the next four opponents to under 24 points. [/I]I could see them having a much the same rebound against this struggling Buffalo Bills offense. On the other hand that defense of theirs is real though. The game is on the road, it's December football and they are fighting for a Wild Card spot. It'll be a close game no matter how you look at it I think. [I][B]My prediction:[/B][/I] [B][I]Packers 24 Bills 20[/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
