    Of course it is. We won but lets not get crazy over it. We won a game the Bills didn't need. Shouldn't take anything from that other than we didn't lose. There was nothing in that game to hang a hat on. They didn't blow us out... We didn't blow their subs out either with our starters.

    Considering we shuffled 2 more lineman between that game and the prior..... I think there's plenty to hang our hat on. Seriously look at the WRs

    Sunday was more a preseason 2020 game than the final 2019 game.

    Fine but what about looking at the entire season. 10-6 to 7-9 says they were better.

    So I'm asking, why are you giving buffalo a pass for playing backups for one game and the Jets have been doing it practically all season and went 6-2 with backups against teams that were using there starters over the final 8 games?

    Buffalo is 10-6 going to the playoffs with a puncher's chance at a SB run. That's a pass they earned and the Jets haven't yet. I only care about wins and losses. All the other mundane day to day shit like injuries, etc happen to every team in the league. Those that have enough depth deal with it and win. Those that don't, don't. We're in that second group and will be until we build some quality depth and starters That's gonna take a lot more than one or two offseasons.

    I don't think they were that much better at all. I think they got some breaks at the end of games and the Jets played 3 weeks with qbs who didn't belong on the field. Hard to say they were better giving the circumstances

    They don't have a punchers chance. They're not even close. They couldnt beat this depowered NE team that got worse as the season went on.

    I agree with you about this. Their D is elite and I do think they can beat the Texans. To me this game is a toss up. But I can't see them beating Baltimore or KC especially in their places. While Josh Allen has improved he still needs to get better and develop more consistency to his game. Also the Bills don't have enough offense to beat teams like the Ravens/Chiefs.

    Those are the actual rankings for total offense and defense for each team.

    YPG is just a portion of things. Not the biggest determining factor by any means.

    I don't care. Injuries happen on every team. It's not as crazy as so many people are trying to make it out to be.

    Of course they do. They are in the playoffs. Which gives EVERY team in the playoffs a punchers chance. The teams that didn't make it, don't.

    Like, what ?

    I'm not saying they're a bad team but these other teams are just better. I think the Texans are the best matchup for them to get a win

    No they don't. They are nto good enough to beat Baltimore, Kansas City, or even NE for that matter. I don't even think they x an beat Tennessee which is a mirror team with a better offense.

    The Bills may very well beat Houston but will then go into KC or Baltimore and get their asses kicked.

    No he's right you make no sense. We are a bottom feeder team right now. We won't improve next year. Our rookies will need time to adjust to the NFL. Our new FA will need time in the system. And we have one of the hardest schedule. We will lose most of our games most likely. We were gifted 2 game this year. Miami is staet to get their shit together and if they get good picks, which the have plenty of. They may smoke us both games. Pats will roll us for sure. Bills probably will if they keep the momentum. Btw they have a better defense than Tenn and can probably beat them, they might beat Houston. And the nfc west is going to kill us.

    I don’t know about that. The Bills were the pits just last year. They seemed to turn the roster around in the offseason particularly the OL. Now all of a sudden they have a puncher’s chance at a Super Bowl run.....

    Personally I can’t see them lasting past the divisional round.

    In all fairness, the Bills record is almost as inflated by their schedule as ours is. They're due for a regression next year.

    I don't disagree but at the moment I geel like they fair a better chance next year. Thats could change through the off season. But they have a better defense, offense (not QB), and coach than we do.

    I agree the Bills are a better team than we are. Barring substantial improvements, they'll regress to 8-8 and we'll regress to 5-11.
