Buffalo Bills @ Houston Texans Game Thread

[THEREALBRAND]

The most stunning thing about the NFL, heading into Week 6? How bad the Bills have looked, especially on defense.

"Yeah,'' coach Chan Gailey said from Arizona Thursday, "I hate to use that word [stunned]. But this has really caught me off guard."

Roll this around in your brain, about the team that has one of the best defensive tackles in football, Kyle Williams, and a supposed wunderkind bookend for Williams, Marcell Dareus, and a $16-million-a-year defensive end, Mario Williams: The Bills have surrendered 1,201 yards and 97 points in the last two games.

Expansion teams aren't that bad against the run. Buffalo is surrendering 5.7 yards per carry, an incredibly bad number. (The expansion Browns in 1999: 4.5; the expansion Texans in 2002: 4.1.)

I watched the tape of their historically bad game against San Francisco -- historic because it's the first game in NFL history where an offense compiled more than 300 yards rushing and 300 yards passing. I saw two quarterback pressures of Alex Smith. I saw gigantic holes for Frank Gore, and I saw Dareus and Mario Williams getting pushed around at will.
