Sneaky D of the Week


Buffalo Bills Bills Defense/Special Team

My sneaky defense of the week is the Buffalo Bills. The first thing that should jump out at you when looking at this match up is the trenches battle.  The Pittsburgh offensive line is a raggedy bunch that has allowed their unhappy franchise QB get acquainted to the turf 31 times in eight games.  I can do that math.  That's on a pace for 62 sacks.  Meanwhile, the Bills sport one of the most annoying pass-rushes in the league.  Tied for second with 29.  Mario Williams has found a reset button and looks like a being among lesser beings again with 11 sacks on the season.  Not to mention Big Ben's fumbling tendency, has 5 already, it will be a tough time for the Steelers today.

Also, with the nugget on the grapevine that this is possibly Roethlisberger's final year in Pittsburgh, who knows how the chemistry is there?  This is a unit that's not in sync on both ends of the field.  The Bills have just recieved only good news this past week.  C.J. Manuel is back from an injury and C.J. Spiller has seemingly just finally recovered from the ankle issue. Expect the Bills to control the clock and the game.
