Take 2: Bills Roundtable

12:21 AM, Sep 15, 2011

2-On-Your-Side's Adam Benigni and Sal Maiorana look ahead to the Bills home opener against the Raiders.

Buffalo is coming off a 41-7 win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1.   The Bills new and improved defense did a good job of stopping the run in that game holding Kansas City to just 108 rushing yards.  The Raiders ran for 190 yards in their season opening win Monday night at Denver.   Chan Gailey called the Raiders ground attack "scary" and says they will be a tougher test for the run defense than the Chiefs were last week.

The Bills offense is more confident after putting up 41 points in the opener.   But the Raiders have tremendous size and physicality up front.  This game might be a more accurate measuring stick for where things stand for the Buffalo offense early in the season.

WGRZ will combine with the Rochester D&C all season long to provide in-depth Bills coverage on-air and online.
