Buffalo Bills @ Indianapolis Colts


Buf_medium      Ind_medium
Buffalo Bills (1-1) at Indianapolis Colts (1-2)
Final Score: BUF 20 IND 7
Bills/Colts: What to Watch For
SBN Colts coverage: Stampede Blue

Q4, 9:19: Buffalo's twentieth string offense capitalizes on a Keith Ellison interception with a Rian Lindell field goal.  Bills 20, Colts 7.

Q3, 2:54: Leodis McKelvin just got absolutely torched, mistiming a jump and surrendering a 94-yard touchdown pass by Indy's Quinn Gray.  Bills 17, Colts 7.  Ugly play from our top draft pick.

Q2, 1:43: Joseph Addai blushes.  Addai fumbles the ball on a routine switch of hands; the ball is scooped up by Terrence McGee and promptly returned 68 yards for a touchdown.  Bills 17, Colts 0.

Q2, 5:00: Buffalo, behind outstanding play-calling by Turk Schonert, orchestrates an 18-play beauty of a drive capped off by a one-yard touchdown dive by Xavier Omon.  10-0 Bills.  The team did, however, lose Langston Walker (shoulder) on the drive, and J.P. Losman may have dinged his hand at some point as well.

Q1, 2:31: The Bills take a 3-0 lead on their second drive of the game on some nice work - albeit work that came up short - by J.P. Losman through the air.  Buffalo's offense has Indy's defense off-balance, but a Losman-to-Evans attempt on third down fails and leads to a 36-yarder by Rian Lindell.

Welcome, Rumblers, to tonight's open game thread for our third pre-season matchup of the year, in which our beloved Buffalo Bills take on the Indianapolis Colts at the newly constructed Lucas Oil Stadium.  The Bills will be without starting quarterback Trent Edwards (thigh) for this game, meaning backup J.P. Losman will get the start.  Wide receivers James Hardy and Roscoe Parrish, tight end Derek Schouman and offensive tackle Matt Murphy will also miss the game; more inactives will be listed here as they come.

If you'd like to join in tonight's live chat with the rest of us, create a free SB Nation account and hop on in!  Upon completion, we'll have a post-game thread up for... wait for it... post-game discussion, and we'll have our weekly film session (starters only) on Tuesday.  Go Bills!

I can hardly wait

Jim Sorgi vs. JP Losman…man, I wish I had a plasma screen TV and surround sound. Joking aside, most of the defensive starters are healthy, and even though its not Peyton Manning throwing the ball, I’d like to see how good the defense does tonight.

He was in Charlotte last night watching the Redskins get annihilated. The only that was worse than the Redskins run defense was Theisman’s analysis.

Anyone know why Moorman isn’t punting? He usually does in the first half.

by Krenn on Aug 24, 2008 8:16 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Probably because he doesn’t need to. I’m not fussed.

catch a 1st down, drop another

Bad players will make a play or two if they’re on the field for most of the snaps, but it’ll cost you in long run…

Never forget 56-10. Revenge.

Yeah, Sterling needs to work on the diversity of his calls. How many “beautiful throw and catch” have we heard to this point? Must keep tally…

by Brian Galliford on Aug 24, 2008 8:29 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Darian Barnes has missed a couple of blocks to this point.

by Brian Galliford on Aug 24, 2008 8:30 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I'm not impressed with Barnes at all...

…I think Buffalo missed the boat by once again grabbing a street free agent to start at FB rather than finding a long term solution.

Never forget 56-10. Revenge.

by SuperFan82 on Aug 24, 2008 8:32 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Is any NFL fullback a “long-term solution”? Not arguing the point on Barnes, just saying…

by Brian Galliford on Aug 24, 2008 8:33 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

there's a difference

between FBs like Gardner and Gash and FBs off the street like Shelton and Barnes…I thought Owen Schmidt looked good in the preseason game I saw this week…guess we’ll see first hand in week one.

Never forget 56-10. Revenge.

at first blush...

the o-line has been doing a reasonable job….I’ll have to go back and look at it later this week but I think that was a delayed LB blitz on the last throw to Evans

of course 7 carries for 11 yards rushing....

The knee?

I thought it was a “quadricep”. That’s Jauron’s best effort to do a Belichick.

It’s the thigh area immediately above his knee. So, thighknee. Whatever. That general area.

Did you just say “butt” in an open thread NOT in reference to Melvin Fowler? (BAZING)

Are you saying

that Mel has a large posterior? I’m telling his Mom

No. Just that he’s on it. (That joke fell bizarrely flat. I expected Ron to eat that up. Maybe K too.)

Oh God. Langston Walker hurt. Bet you a large sum of dinero it’s a shoulder.

I think it’s his hand. Looks like it got pinched as someone ran by.

Looks like he reached out to grab the defender chasing Losman…..

I not the best lip-reader, but

I think Walker said something along the lines of, “I’m not going back in there”

Walker

doesn’t look happy and is in pain. Gingerly hanging the shoulder up. That’s just wonderful

“JP has done a good job getting them in and out of bad plays.”

Maybe if he didn’t commit the bad plays, he wouldn’t need to get them out of them??

And

the announcers are playing off the Bills success by saying the Colts don’t care about the preseason. What a load of bull…
