The Bills are 2-0. The Saints are 0-2. Oh, and if we lose to the Packers the Bills will be sitting in sole possession of first place in the AFC East. Commence the orbital bombardment.
Yeah looks that way although I'm shocked their D's remained this good with Alonso out and losing Byrd.
Bills look decent this year. They are a balanced team offensively and defensively. I won't mind seeing them successful. I kind of fell bad them for them to be honest. Their biggest weakness might be EJ Manuel. Somehow he doesn't strike me as a good QB.
Didn't the Bills start off 4- 0 in 2011, and then proceed to lose ten games? They always start off well, but they'll fall apart very soon.
I think 4 players remain on this team from that 2011 squad...........yup we're def the same as that finesse non physical 2011 squad.
I'll believe it once I see the Bills in October onwards. I've been sucked into, "oh maybe the Bills will be a WC threat" in multiple years and then they always play bad to end the season. Would be good for Buffalo if this team is for real.
The problem is the Bills run into a gauntlet toward the back end of their schedule. 3 of the last 4 games are Broncos, Packers, Patriots.... yikes. If those teams eliminate us from the playoffs, people will probably call that a "collapse" on our part, but in reality, those are just great teams. I'm not going to get too excited until we get to the final game.
Well not even that far, just to be in the race by your final 4 games, I would consider that a big deal regardless of what happens
I dont think it would be a big deal. Its playoffs or bust for the Bills. If they don't make the playoffs again you'll hear "same old Bills" from fans, media, and the public. Doesnt matter why they missed. About the only way I would think we could miss the playoffs and it still be labeled a success is if we ended up 10-6 and missed out, like the cardinals did last year. Just "improving" wont cut it for this regime anymore.
Hm maybe, I don't what it would look like form a Bills perspective, but from a me perspective, the Bills being in the WC race around Thankgiving would be a success for them. Small steps. I don't remember the last time I remember the Bills in the playoff hunt
