BuffaloBills reports that Bills are expecting 8 man fronts. Eric Wood says the Bills won’t be dissuaded from running the ball by eight-man fronts. “You’ve got to throw them out of it or you have to be effective running the ball,” Wood said. ”Our backs have done a great job of making people miss and C.J. (Spiller) showed last week if you put that safety down there and he misfits on a hole that’s a big time play. “I like Adrian Peterson’s theory on eight and nine man fronts from last year. I thought his theory was great. If he sees an eight or nine-man front he’s thinking home-run because all he has to do is get past the second level and he’s out the gate as opposed to maybe the third level. He credited them loading the box to a lot of his big runs last year. I think that’s the mindset you have to have as a running back. See it as a challenge, almost a compliment that they have to put an extra guy in there and then you try to smoke that safety.”
