I'll say 9-7 for now. The draft hasn't happened yet, though. Maybe after the draft I'll feel like 10-6.

Wk 1 at NYJ - Loss
Wk 2 at NYG - Win
Wk 3 Cincy home opener - Win
Wk 4 NE - Loss
Wk 5 at TEN - Win
Wk 6 BYE
Wk 7 Miami - Win
Wk 8 Philly - Loss
Wk 9 WSH - Win
Wk 10 at CLE - Loss
Wk 11 at MIA - Win
Wk 12 DEN - Win
Wk 13 at DAL Thanksgiving Day - Loss
Wk 14 BAL - Win
Wk 15 at PIT - Loss
Wk 16 at NE possible Saturday game - Loss
Wk 17 NYJ - Win
9-7 is my initial guess. But it never works out how you guess. We'll win a couple we don't expect to and lose a couple we should have won.
But it seems like beating Miami twice and getting two wins out of the Cowboys, Browns, Steelers, or Ravens is a must.

Go to time out. Don't make me count to 3!

i'm about to inception this: we can't be ahead of the patriots because we exist.
How could we when we face most of the same opponents, except they face the Bills and we face them?

Meanwhile, I just recreated Buscaglia's spreadsheet so I could make my own projections... In my defense, I'm a mega-nerd for excel.
It's a slippery slope. Be careful. I recently made an Excel model for ranking ginger beer.

You're talking to the people who can make a big deal out of literally anything. We have no lives. That's why we're here. Coincidentally, you're here too.
Also, I didn't care about this at all till I saw the high probability of the Thanksgiving game. I have wanted that forever. So I'm sure it wont happen.
You're right. I would love to know the schedule early, but I'm not willing to do any of the leg work myself. That's why this place is so great. We can sit back and refresh the page while pretending to work at our jobs, and let the Twitter pirates connect all the dots for us.

I have seen hotel prices double or even worse when the schedule goes public. Sometimes minutes matter.
Hm. That's a very logical argument. Thanks for the information.

I still think it is too early to guess wins and losses, but that's just me.

How many NFL QB's have their college go-to WR become their NFL go-to WR?
-
Wow. Pretty funny that people are investing so much time and energy into reading tea leaves to figure out the schedule when it will be officially announced later today.
Good job. You'll know the schedule exactly 42 minutes before the rest of the world ?

I'm hoping for a Jets week 1 matchup. That would be sweet. Allen vs Darnold.

This guy knows nothing. Just hoping something will stick so he can pay himself on the back later.

I repeat......I know it's not how it's being used..........but that's because it's a very effective deterrent for QB's even thinking about changing teams.....so teams don't need to apply it to their QB's. Instead those QB's get used to the idea of buying in and making it work where they are.
I don't think it's a deterrent. Teams just plan and expect to pay a franchise QB big money and are not willing to let them walk away. QB's get offered to dollar anyway and have no need to test free agency.

Something tells me we get a good one, right out of the gate. I went with @ Cleveland.
It would be great to crush the new chosen ones week 1 and have everyone outside of Buffalo scratching their heads and second guessing their views on Cleveland.
But I voted at home vs Jets. I think that's more likely.

The franchise tag protects small markets. It exists primarily to force franchise QB's to the negotiating table.
Without it top young QB prospects can enter the NFL with one foot out of the door in that market just like young NBA stars.
The tag is used on other positions because QB's generally know that they aren't going anywhere without a 2 year career disruption.........but it needs to exist to prevent an NBA-like situation where the balance of power swings with top 10 QB's moving around every offseason.
That's not how the franchise tag is used. It isn't used on franchise QB's, it isn't used on elite players.
1 minute ago, Doc Brown said:One thought I had with all these QB's handcuffing their teams with huge contracts is that you should be able to sign one player that doesn't count against the cap each year. You can give your franchise QB (or another position if your QB sucks) as much money as you want and still field a competitive roster. No need for the franchise tag.
That's an interesting thought. You'd see QB salaries sky rocket, though. The only thing keeping them down is the cap, and even that isn't doing it.
Eventually it would equalize though, and you'd have other positions getting mega deals.

Just a hunch? Really think the Bills can risk their season on a pipe dream? No sign of life in him last year, consistently. Obviously I hope you are right, but nothing to go on here other than his career stats--not 2018.
The Bills cannot take that chance, should not.
In the Super Bowl years the Bills almost always cut ties with players when they were done--sign of a good team.
And you expect a RB that's sitting on his couch a week before the draft to help the team significantly? If the Bills don't believe in McCoy anymore, they should be drafting his replacement.
-
Hmm, I like defense AND offense, so I guess I'd have to go with 15th offense and 15th defense. But I don't think that's good enough.
As far as passing vs rushing, I don't care much, but again, balance would be nice.

Boy, MJS, I need my relief pitcher to do something, especially one the caliber of Gore. If I had Nolan Ryan in his last couple of years i wouldn't just sit him.
Allen could do 700 and I don't have as big a problem with him doing it as some. I just don't think the coaches are going to let that happen.
Gore will get some yards, maybe even some TD's, but if he doesn't, I don't think it makes or breaks the offense.
And I have no problem with Allen running. It's one of his strengths, and I believe the coaches will use it, but they'll want him to be smart about it. QB's get hurt just as often within the pocket as without. Allen's injury last year happened with him in the pocket.

McCoy: 1,200 yards, 7 TD's
Gore: Doesn't matter. Anything is a bonus.
Allen: 700 yards, 6 TD's

I say no way. He isn't a good pass rusher, so we need to find someone who is. You don't get a 5th year option for being a backup, rotational DE.

I quite liked our schedule last year.

Yeah, well Jamal Adams said the Jets' uniform photos leaked were fake also...
They have the Cardinals hosting on Thanksgiving, which doesn't seem right. Pretty sure it's a fake.

Well, Edmunds just went into the Hall of Fame on my Madden franchise after a 16 year illustrious career. So that means he'll be an awesome player in real life, right?
BTW, Josh Allen is still going strong! So don't worry! Just about to pass Drew Brees on all time passing yards record.

We resigned Phillips, we got Hughes and Star and Murphy and Lawson and Yarborough and Harold and H. Phillips.
We're talking about drafting Oliver or Wilkins or Gary. On top of that we're trading for Clark.
Just wondering? Is anybody concerned we've done nothing as far as our LB corps is concerned?
I do think we need more depth, but most of the time we only field two linebackers anyway. We definitely need to find a replacement for Lorenzo eventually.
And I believe we will expend some draft picks on linebackers.
