HalftimeAdjustment Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I counted 6 losses in your game-by-game predictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills1960 Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Wow, love the confidence. I've said it before and I'll say it again: this team will be 8-8. With what they've gained with their improved defense, they're still going to be held back by an Offense that cannot possibly be that much improved from last year. That being said the offense wasn't horrible last year, but then again they did finish 4-12. That's my two cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills!Win! Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 so its it 3 shots of Absinthe or 4? I like it, but its a pipe dream. Say that to the Rams of 2000 or the Cardinals of 2009, both of those teams were bad for 9 straight years and then surprised some teams and made the playoffs.... Oh yeah, AND the superbowl.

Final Record 12 - 4 Division Title. Well I love it! I wish I could be as optimistic as I am predicting 6-10. Still lacking on the "O" Line...not sold on WR's quite yet, not sold on C.J. Spiller yet neither. Still have several midling players that wouldn't play much if at all on your better teams ie: Chris Kelsay, Leodis McKelvin etc. Still wondering why Buffalo doesn't utilize TE's like most teams do? I think overall the defense will be better, but the Bills still lack depth in key areas, and I expect them to give up a lot of yards in the passing game. Although slightly improved, I don't think the Bills know how to win consistently, and I think you will see after half-time adjustments a team that is out coached and like the past several years players that are injury prone. I don't see why "suddenly" they would be capable of going any more than 8 wins if the cards fell nicely! Anyhow, I hope I'm wrong, because 12 wins would be sweet!

RLflutie7 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 My prediction is the Bills make the playoffs and I think 10-6 is not far off. I love the QB, RBs and WRs on this team.

mabden Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share Posted September 11, 2011 (edited) How much would you be willing to wager on a ridiculous prediction like that? The only thing I had wrong was the score. Did not expect 41 pts!!! "A non-Weis coached offense sputters, Buffalo's revamped defense stops their running game, and Fitz puts together some good drives with Jackson a workhorse all day." One down, 15 to go. Edited September 11, 2011 by mabden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
