Scrappy Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Wow, that just seems a bit over the top... Highest scoring offense in the league & we beat one of the best teams in the league after being down 21 points ? That's the very definition of power, it's imposing your will when you want something.

r00tabaga Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) I still think Peter King had the best one. #7 is very gracious IMO. This is too high. Waiting to see what PFT has us at today. Edited September 27, 2011 by r00tabaga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 It's the Bleacher Report.. With such noteworthy journalists as Scooby and his little band of puppies. No cred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Bleacher Report. About as credible as any of us yahoos. I say we are in the 7-10 range. If we continue to win, then we continue to move up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanThru-N-Thru Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 This is too high. They may get there in time but it is too soon to put them at #2. I agree that it is too high. When you go to NFL.com they have twelve different "experts" with their rankings. Lowest was #8, Highest was #3, averaged out they were 5.5 which I think is pretty accurate 5 or 6 is where I'd put them. I was just trying to point out these were the same clowns at BleacherReport that at the beginning of the year had us ranked 32nd in the league and a sure-fire team to win the Andrew Luck sweepstakes.

hondo in seattle Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) A sportswriter in Houston had us #5 BEFORE the New England game. http://blog.chron.com/nfl/2011/09/week-3-nfl-power-rankings/ I agree that it is too high. When you go to NFL.com they have twelve different "experts" with their rankings. Lowest was #8, Highest was #3, averaged out they were 5.5 which I think is pretty accurate 5 or 6 is where I'd put them. I was just trying to point out these were the same clowns at BleacherReport that at the beginning of the year had us ranked 32nd in the league and a sure-fire team to win the Andrew Luck sweepstakes. It's amazing we're ranked between #3 and #8. People are jumping on the Bills bandwagon awfully fast. Btw, in the NFL.com scoring system (combining the rankings of their 9 'experts'), the Bills are tied for the Pats for #5. Only the Packers, Saints, Lions and Ravens are in front of us. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d8229d2e3/article/week-4-power-poll-pack-solid-while-eagles-jets-take-big-falls?module=HP11_headline_stack Edited September 27, 2011 by hondo in seattle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skibum Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Pretty bad list. Jets at #8 ahead of the Raiders at 14, who just beat the Jets' arse? It seems like all of these "rankings" cling to previous seasons' results for the first few weeks of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickedface Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 again i'd prefer to have teams underestimate the bills. the media hasn't shown respect to them and they are playing with a chip on their shoulder because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
