bisonbrigade Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) Here's a shocker Mike Rodak picked the Bills to loose again. Why is this guy covering the Bills anyhow? He never says anything good about the team even if it's warranted. I think he's just upset because he is from New England and used to cover Patriots and got demoted. I wonder WHY??????

He's a loose cannon? Picking the Bills to lose isn't so far-fetched. Edited November 14, 2013 by BuffaloWings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QCity Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I'm picking the BIlls to lose as well. Rex Ryan owns us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 So that means he's 7-3 on the season, right? I think you're right because I believe Rodak has picked against us every week. So far, sadly enough, it hasn't been a bad strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 So that means he's 7-3 on the season, right? Worse, I think. IIRC, he's picked us to win twice -- last week against Pittsburgh, and also against Cleveland? Not sure of the earlier one, but I'm fairly confident that he's picked us to win twice, and we've lost both of those games. If I'm right, he's actually 5-5 picking us to win or lose outright. Update: couldn't find his pick for Week 8 vs. the Saints, but no one thinks he picked the Bills, right? I checked all the rest, and I was correct -- he's predicted Bills wins against PIT & CLE, and been wrong both times. 5-5 overall, 5-3 when predicting the Bills to lose. I think the Bills have a shot in this game, but it depends on what team shows up. Our two worst performances of the year, both as a team overall and EJ specifically, were the first Jets game and Pittsburgh -- both on the road. I'm hoping that the first game was more of a home/road split thing than a "Rex Ryan owns us" thing. Fingers crossed. I think you're right because I believe Rodak has picked against us every week. So far, sadly enough, it hasn't been a bad strategy. See above -- Rodak (so far) would have been better served just going against us every week. I'm hoping that turns around, though. The Bills just need to revert back to playing the way they played against NE, Carolina, Baltimore (defense only), Cincy, Miami (again, defense only), NO, & KC. That level of play is enough to beat most of the teams in the back half of our schedule -- including Pittsburgh, but we instead played our worst game of the year and got destroyed.

DefenseWinzChampionshipz Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Reading that doesn't tell me anything I don't already know but it shows that the rest of the league and people looking in on the Bills notice everything that we know. I know they're analysts and reporters so it's their job to study all teams, but I always thought they would focus their attention more on winning teams than a struggling team like ours. EJ checking the ball down is the key problem with him and of course the footwork issue. EJ or should I say, the QB position REALLY is what's holding us back. Our record is the way it is because of QB play. Not the defense and not the offensive line. I'm not saying we should be 8-2 but we could easily be 6-4 with better QB play.

Just in Atlanta Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I don't see how the Bills are -1. Week 3, I thought we were the better team. Now, I just hope it's close. EJ and Hackett need more time, and Rex clearly has our number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-8 Forever? Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Since we have EJ and a bunch of 4th stringers playing WR this week, Jets will put 8 in the box and crush the run game, so right now everyone needs to shut down talk that "we need to run the ball" B/C the Jets will shut it down and see if EJ + TJ + Hogan + Easley can throw it. Which they cannot, so this will be ugly unless Bills' D really comes to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffHead Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Gonna have to lay some Scooby snacks down on the jets. How we are favored is beyond me. That defense owns our offense line every time and we have no passing game with Stevie and woods likely out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Smart money should be on the Jest to win this Sunday, given their defense and our WR corp suddenly low on talented players. We need to run the ball and I'm not convinced we can do that against them. And if we're one-dimensional, I can't see EJ and this group of receivers being the difference. The wild card is our own defense. Depends which one shows up. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KikO M G Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Rodak actually picked us last week. He, along with most of us, found out the hard way on Sunday that this Bills team just ain't that good. However, I stopped following him on Twitter when he said the TD reception at the end of the game was made by Lee Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
