According to all the “power rankings” these are both top 10 teams.
September 23, 2020 at 10:35 am #121577HramParticipantShould be a good game. Rams traveling east for the second week in a row makes it tough. I’m gonna say 20-17 Rams.
September 23, 2020 at 2:10 pm #121588ZooeyModeratorI don’t follow the Bills, so I’m surprised that they are rated so highly, and I’m just going to accept the consensus that they’re pretty good. I guess we are going to see the Rams stressed seriously for the first time.
At the end of the day, one of the teams will be dropped out of the Top 10.

I know the last time I saw them play.
LA Coliseum. 3 years ago in October. The Bills won, and I was not glad.

That was all before the meteor hit.
September 23, 2020 at 5:08 pm #121601wvParticipantWell there are numerous reasons the Bills/Bisons will lose,
but the main reason is — their name was a nod towards the American Frontier.
Which means, ispso facto, that Bills fans are in favor of ethnic cleansing and genocide.Thus, the Rams will hunt down and ruthlessly, joyously slaughter the Bisons.
It will be like gunning down slow, plodding beasts from a train, and leaving them in piles on the plains. In the spirit of the frontier.Rams – 20
Bills – 19================================
Wiki
“…Name origins
In 1947 a contest was held to rename the AAFC Bisons, which was owned by James Breuil of the Frontier Oil Company. The winning entry suggested “Bills”, reflecting on the famous western frontiersman, Buffalo Bill Cody. Carrying the “frontier” theme further, the winning contestant offered the team was being supported by Frontier Oil and was “opening a new frontier in sports in Western New York.” When Buffalo joined the new American Football League in 1960, the name of the city’s earlier pro football entry was adopted.[12]…

…..The Bills currently do not have cheerleaders. The Bills operated a cheerleading squad named the Buffalo Jills from 1967 to 1985; from 1986 to 2013, the Jills operated as an independent organization sponsored by various companies, most recently by Citadel Broadcasting. The Jills suspended operations prior to the 2014 season due to legal actions.[58] The Bills and Jills are currently involved in a legal battle, in which the Jills allege they were employees, not independent contractors, and are seeking back pay.[59] Complicating matters is that Citadel’s buyer, Cumulus Media, declared bankruptcy and sought to discharge its remaining Bills-related debts in January 2018.[60]….

….The Bills’ unofficial fight song, “Go Bills”, was penned by Bills head coach Marv Levy in the mid-1990s on a friendly wager with his players that he will write the song if the team won a particular game.[64]…”September 23, 2020 at 10:36 pm #121623InvaderRamModeratoranother big test for the defense.
i’m not as high on this defense as others are. although they have the potential to get better.
it’s gonna be close.
September 24, 2020 at 2:29 pm #121647HerzogParticipantBills are really really good. Josh Allen is really good.
30-21 Rams

September 25, 2020 at 12:58 pm #121691nittany ramModeratorI think the Bills are really good so I wouldn’t be shocked if the Rams stumbled a bit this week. Not saying they will, but stranger things have happened. I once saw Zooey act sorta noncommittal with respect to his adoration of Pete Carroll. It was momentary. If you blinked you would have missed it but it did happen.
So, even a loss at the Bills probably sets up the Rams to go 7-1, worst case 6-2 going into their bye.
Next 5 games after the Bills are against the Giants, Washington, 9’ers, Bears, and Dolphins.
7-1 at the bye? Who wouldn’t have taken that before the season started?
September 26, 2020 at 12:00 am #121717znModeratorI think the Bills are really good so I wouldn’t be shocked if the Rams stumbled a bit this week.
Tough game, tough team, on the road, one of the furthest road trips in the USA (2213 miles), and 2nd road trip in a row.
It’s a potential stumble game, for sure.
But still I ain’t betting against them. I’m not like you that way. I have actual values and standards.
September 26, 2020 at 12:14 am #121719znModeratorAnd I put some Rodrigue in the “press sets up the Bills game” thread. That’s always a good read. http://theramshuddle.com/topic/press-sets-up-the-buffalo-game/#post-121718
