Another Point of View Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 (edited) Here is the deal , add every link you can find on the Bills 2010 final record prediction by the EXPERTS. At the end of the season you won't need to go back through thousands of threads looking for that one article that predicted the Bills for dead last with Buffalo receiving the number 1 selection in the 2011 draft. Just a warning here, Do you remember the year that Sports Illustrated predicted the New York Giants for 3-13 and the Giants went on to win the Superbowl? Reason...........No skill players,NO DEFENSE and an unproven QB in Eli Manning! Well guys I went back and looked for the link after the Superbowl and guess what......... mysteriously disappeared! YOU WILL BE LOOKING FOR THIS POST LATER IN THE YEAR...Trust me! Important: Post your link THEN write the authors name and his prediction, This way we can easily find it later. Should the link disappear, you will still have the authors name the prediction in your post!

Buffalo Bills Tim Graham http://espn.go.com/blog/afceast Down the page a bit Previous rating: 31 Final 2009 ranking (regular season): No. 24 My take: Throughout last season I criticized the panel for rating the Bills way too high. Now I disagree with how little credit the Bills are getting. Sando and Clayton each ranked the Bills the worst team in the NFL. Kuharsky saved them from being on the bottom of the Power Rankings by pegging them at a robust 30. My prediction for the Bills this year is five or six victories. That would place them much higher than 31st.

bowery4 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Can thank you enough bowery4 No problem,you just did. If I was Chan these would be hanging in the locker room I doubt other teams think this stuff , so these are good motivators IMO, Rex might say something stupid tho, wouldn't put it past him.

Prediction: 4-12, last in AFC East Vic Carucci Chan Gailey could be a coaching upgrade, but he can't overcome the lack of a legitimate starting quarterback and offensive line problems. Prediction: 2-14, last in AFC East Pat Kirwan Could be tough year for Bills, who changed coaches, lost their leading receiver and top pass rusher, and have banged-up backs. Prediction: 4-12, last in AFC East Jason La Canfora QB and LT situations are scary. Roster is overloaded at some positions, woefully thin at others. At least C.J. Spiller will entertain. Prediction: 2-14, last in AFC East Michael Lombardi My lock to have the first pick in the 2011 draft; welcome to Buffalo, Jake Locker. Prediction: 2-14, last in AFC East Steve Wyche QB, offensive line and running back are all issues. They have nice pieces on D, but didn't upgrade as much as the competition. Prediction: 3-13, last in AFC East I feel like Nixon making his list. Edited September 8, 2010 by flopagamo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach55 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 This is a great idea - for the people attaching the links, attach the content as well. The sports writers are going to pull their predictions... By the way, when we are 3-0 to start the season - how much do you want to bet the John Clayton will say "he called it" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Point of View Posted September 8, 2010 Author Share Posted September 8, 2010 (edited) http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/NFL-predictions-2010-season-preview-Adam-Schein Adam Schein (Bills 3-13) Leon Washington will get back to the form he showed with the Jets. AFC East Jets 11-5 Patriots 10-6 (wild card) Dolphins 10-6 (wild card) Bills 3-13 1. I usually get ripped for thinking the Bills always have a chance. Not the case this year. I don’t like the choice for head coach. I don’t love the staff. I’m concerned about the offensive line. I think the quarterback is talented but suffers from a lack of confidence. 2. But Buffalo did do one thing right in drafting C.J. Spiller, my pick for Offensive Rookie of the Year. 3. The Dolphins defense is vastly improved with Mike Nolan taking over, and the club added Karlos Dansby, Koa Misi and Jared Odrick. The second-year cornerbacks will play even better. 4. Chad Henne is going to surprise you with how many yards he throws for this year. Brandon Marshall changes everything. 5. The Patriots have no running attack. And Logan Mankins is certainly stubborn enough to hold out for an entire season. But Tom Brady is flat-out amazing. Wes Welker is healthy. I like the young tight ends. 6. The Patriots will be much better than you think. I like the young defensive backs. I love a healthy Jerod Mayo. 7. Even if Darrelle Revis didn’t play a down, the Jets defense would still lead them to wins. Antonio Cromartie needed a change of scenery. Rex Ryan and Mike Pettine do a great job. But the Calvin Pace injury is a big deal. Ryan and Pettine love this cat. Pace is an underrated pass rusher. 8. Mark Sanchez spent time this offseason working with my radio co-host Rich Gannon. The two big areas Sanchez needs to improve? Third-down and fourth-quarter efficiency. 9. I think LaDainian Tomlinson bounces back in Edited September 8, 2010 by Another Point of View Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cynical Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Accountability is a funny thing. Sometimes it works in your favor, and sometimes it works against you. If the "experts" are more right than wrong, do you still plan to revisit this thread? If you have the right to hold the "experts" accountable for being wrong, they have the right to say "I told you so" when they are right. Can everybody who is contributing to this thread handle being told "I told you so" if the Bills do reach such a bad record? Or do you plan on disappearing, changing screen names, etc...? And we wonder why people get frustrated and leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
