The next 7 games of the Bills season: 10/12 - vs. NE* 10/19 - vs. MIN 10/26 - @ NJJ 11/9 - vs. KC 11/13 - @ MIA (Thursday Night) 11/23 - vs. NJJ 11/30 - vs. CLE My outlook on the schedule has shifted significantly as the season has progressed, and looking at the next seven games, I do not see a game that we are not more than capable of winning. Could the Bills possibly be unbeaten in October and November? I am not making a guarantee or prediction in any way, but see it as a distinct possibility. Which of these teams truly scare you? I don't see a game that makes me go, "Jeez... that's gonna be a tough one," until we play @ DEN on 12/7. The Bills, if they play to their talent level, could exit November with a 10-2 record... hell, even if they fall to NE this weekend, 9-3 after 12 games looks like something good to me. They are then @ DEN (tough to beat Manning, especially at home), vs. GB (this team is tough, but who knows how they may be impacted playing in a raucous Ralph), @ OAK (the worst team in the league, nuff said), and @ NE* (could be a pivotal game with the division on the line). Supposed the bills split the last 4, or even go 1-3... this season could be something spectacular, boys and girls. GO BILLS! - edited to correct for omitted asterisk on the last mention of NE*

Bill, you can't question Schwartz today. His defense held the Lions to 7 points, had 2 takeaways and racked up 6 sacks. I am wholeheartedly on board the Schwatz-wagon.

Can creepy Rob Lowe play QB and hit open receivers? If so, I'll take him.

I don't think we can really judge Hackett's game plans yet. I admit, the decision to throw as much as we did in Houston is a question mark, but judging by how many times receivers were running open and we're either missed or not even looked at, I think it could have been very successful had it been executed properly. If we see better, or even just competent, execution from the quarterback position moving forward with Orton, Hackett's play calling and game planning will be much easier to judge. He had his receivers in a position to succeed in a pass heavy game plan in Houston, but the limitations at the quarterback position sabotaged it from under center.

:sick: Seeing all of those receivers running free down the field and watching the QB dump it off to the RB or short outlet every time makes me feel sick to my stomach. The Houston game shouldn't have been close. Just make the throws to the open guys running wild down field and the points would have been piling up.

The very idea of a "sophomore slump" implies performance at a high level in the "freshman" campaign. Seeing as EJ showed very little in his 1st season, the concept of a sophomore slump cannot apply. EJ has not shown the ability to be a successful starting quarterback in the NFL. Perhaps with some grooming and studying from the bench and significant improvement in his mechanics without the pressure to win on his shoulders, he can be successful. I just don't see it happening or him developing sufficiently in live action at this time.

Well... I guess that question has been answered. Glad I voted Orton...

I don't know about that... seemed to work out pretty well last time...

Gilmore picks it off Rivers throws temper tantrum Whale's Vagina loss Dude... close. 5-7-5. You turned it inside out.

Well... in that case. Work on your material!

Wonder if he'll be tailgating with his pops. His dad still tailgates at all the Bills games, right?

No charges have been filed. I'm sure that as soon as they are, he'll be heading to the exempt commissioner's permission list right along with AP and Hardy.

They've got his girlfriend tied up and locked in the basement. If he has an impact in the game, she gets it.

You don't need to bash people just because power rankings aren't your thing. The only thing you succeeded in doing with this post is make yourself look like kind of a prick. You may not be one, I don't know you personally, so I can't make an informed decision on that point, but come on. The title of this thread is "Power rankings thread." If you don't have any interest in the subject matter that is clearly denoted in the thread title, then why did you click on it? Do you just get a thrill from being a message board tough guy and insulting people whose interests don't completely align with yours? Get over yourself. If you see a thread title indicating that the discussion is about something you don't care for, move on. Don't join the discussion just to insult people. To each his own. There are plenty of other threads to read. I could pass judgment and insult people over a number of opinions and interests on this board, but I have enough respect for others to let them carry on with their lives and save my ire for those who makes themselves feel bigger by bullying others with the type of BS you decided to add to this thread.

Yup. It's code for [end sarcasm].

It's hard to win in the NFL. *ducks and covers*

Filling in for Jim Harbaugh for tonight's post game press conference will be Denny Green...

Your avatar, on the other hand, looks quite impressive. At least from what I can tell on this smartphone screen.

They succeeded! I saw all 4 of them on camera during the game!

The only time I hears Wake's name today was when he was beaten on CJ's big run. Well played Seantrel.
