After opening their pre-season schedule with a 10-3 road loss to the Chicago Bears last week, the Buffalo Bills are looking for better offensive play and better execution from depth players in tonight's second pre-season game - this one in Denver against the Broncos.

It's a big night for a few key reserves, particularly at outside linebacker, where Shawne Merriman's absence will open up a lot of first-team reps for young players looking to stick. Andy Levitre will start at left guard (and play a little center), but Chad Rinehart will get some first-team reps, as well. Finally, if Chan Gailey is to be believed, get ready for more C.J. Spiller tonight, as well.

This is your open thread for tonight's game. Enjoy it as best as one can enjoy a pre-season game. Go Bills!
