Default Expecting a lot of Blitzing from the Pats 4-3 tonight?

I expect to see Pees unload on the Bills with lots of Blitz schemes against a Bills OL which sports 3 players with no experience on the line...Do you?

Is it absolutely certain we'll run a 4-3 at them? Consider the Bills record against a 3-4.. it's 1-6 versus 6-1 against the 4-3.

I'm expecting our standard 3-4 tonight for the reason you gave and so the Jets don't see anything new. The "new" defense, so to speak, I expect to see more of in 6 days.

Although it's a little disadvantage to the rest of our players having to play on the road after MNF, one advantage is our guys will already be breaking down film on the new Jets whereas they won't see our new stuff (new OC and changed defense) until tonight - or maybe not until next week.

I was just about to bring this stat up.

There's no guaranty that the Pats will run one or the other exclusively.

I think with a line as weak as the Bills the 4-3 might be a time for 'good testing' on the success of it,Its something we have not seen much of before - Regardless of whether its 4-3 or not,I still expect a lot of pressure on Edwards instead of letting him find time to find Evans or Owens open deep.

The only problem with focusing on the QB is that Fred Jackson could find a way to get a lot of yards from a short pass out of the backfield should Edwards see no time to throw.

I would actually expect a little less blitzing than usual, as the offensive line is so porous for the Bills (at least it is expected to be) that it may not be necessary. They may be able to just let Big Vince and Warren whip the line up front along with Burgess, Green, Wright, Banta-Cain and whoever else figures into the pressure packages.

It's more like BB doing only what is necessary to win the game. He won't show all of his tricks to the rest of the league.

Actually the bills are 1-8 in the last 9 games vs 3-4 defences and even in preseason had a horrible time vs greenbay 3-4.

Not sure we will see 4-3 that much

The Bills TE Schouman could also be a player to keep an eye on in getting active in the Bills plans to keep the chains moving
