    Next six weeks:

     

    Week 7   Miami

    Week 8  Philadelphia

    Week 9  Washington

    Week 10 at Cleveland

    Week 11 at Miami

    Week 12 Denver

     

    They're all winnable, staying healthy will be important.  Of these, Philadelphia will be a challenge; they're an up and down team who has the potential to lay an egg, just as much as they have the potential to be a dangerous team.  Certainly would be huge to sweep the upcoming six with 4 of the 6 at home.  The next game after that is Thanksgiving at Dallas.

    Agreed...on paper, only the Eagles is in question....we SHOULD win all others on that list.....maybe @ Cleveland is up for debate....only because it's on the road...

  2. I would put 5 teams ahead of us in the NFL as off today.....NE, NO, GB, KC, and SF .....that puts us #3 in the AFC.....you would have told me at the end of August that the Bills would be in that position....I would taken it in a heartbeat....  

     

    PS: to pretend to not understand why NE's schedule isn't brought up as much as the Bills' is silly......20 years of domination vs 20 years of mostly disappointments.....it's like the last 2 decades did not happened.....I keep reading how NE isn't as good as most think....1) that's been said now for the last 3-4 years...yet, they still dominate.....2) every year, NE improves as the season goes.....why would it not be the case this season ?.....so, according to some, they are not as good as before......they're 6-0....playing the Jest this week...90% sure they'll be 7-0.....as others have said...you are what your record says you are....and right now, they're the best team in the NFL...again....

  3. It's probably been mentioned somewhere above, but this is going to be an old school battle.....Titans are a very physical team but the Bills have the horses to respond....Whether it's JA or Barkley, I don't think we need something " special " for that game....just make ball security a top priority and we will win this game...on the road too !

    Here’s where we are different........ I was actually aware of the positives today.

     

    Our defense allowed only 9 points to the defending SB champs, and made Brady look like a middling at best QB. 

     

    Josh was 6-6 on the first drive the Pats gave up for a TD this year.  We had a chance, even after he was knocked out with a cheap shot that in college (and probably soon in the pros) would result in expulsion. That hit may change NFL rules regarding offsetting penalties. 

     

    I’m not happy with mediocrity, but I love consistent progress. We are showing that. 

    That's where I'm at , well said !!!

  5. Question for fans who were there today or at any recent game vs NE....Why does it look like, at least on TV that there's A LOT of Pats fans at the games ?.....I'm talking in what looks to be in      almost all lower sections with Brady or Edleman jerseys....it's driving me nuts !! Are there NE fans really all over the stadium ?

    Look at the offensively horrid teams that the Patriots have played. There’s not even a good enough WR on any of those teams for Gilmore to hold.

    I know...but still, those stats are insane....and again, it started last year in the playoffs....San Diego all game, KC for a half and Rams all game....we know they can slow down really powerful offense......Josh was going against BB and did not win...not really surprising....most QB look bad vs him....and ALL young QB do....he'll get better...

    I’m sorry but the Patriots defense isn’t even close to the way the 85 Bears defense just destroyed teams. I thought our defense played better than the Patriots defense today. Either way both teams lack offensive playmakers to make a good playoff push. The Patriots could make a trade for someone which I fully expect them to do to get them back in contention. The Bills on the other hand will need a new QB and a lot more weapons on offense before we will make that deep playoff push.

    They're not there yet....But, in 4 games, their #s are up there....13 points allowed, 10 interceptions, 3 forced fumbles and 18 sacks......

  8. Anyone who was expecting a break out game today from Josh was being naive...now, we should expect him to avoid the picks, no doubt about that....but NE's D makes everyone look bad lately.....hell, the last TD scored on that D before today was in the AFCCG last year....and that was after they blanked Pat Mahomes and the Chiefs for a full freaking half !!.....and then shut down the Rams.....etc, etc.....Josh will get better...

    For the first time in a while, I do think we've got enough talent to hang with them and beat them on any given day.  The defense has gotten better and better against them and the offense just needs to execute.

     

    I don't think the Patriots or their obnoxious fans are going to want to see Buffalo on their schedule anymore.

    Next game is in Foxboro...usually a different story in that house of horrors....
