Big Turk Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) I don't know where I would put them. If you objectively look at the start to the year who is ahead of them. I would say that NE, GB, maybe KC, maybe Cincy but not many more. The Bills were as impressive as anyone in Week 1. We manhandled KC twice the last two years but found ways to lose by turning the ball over at the 1 yard line as we were about to score a TD to put the game on ice...we should destroy KC this year, but the fact its on the road might make the game closer than it should be. KC literally did nothing against our D in either game, other than the one Jamaal Charles 4th and 1 toss play that fooled our D and he scored a 47 yard TD on it.

BigPappy Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) ESPN Power Rankings have us at #9 and NFL Network has us at 6. http://espn.go.com/nfl/powerrankings/_/week/2 http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000531124/article/nfl-power-rankings-packers-nab-top-spot-chiefs-enter-top-five Not sure I agree with the Saints and Steelers though. I think those are in need of being reversed. I think all the others are pretty close to dead on. Not that I'm an expert or anything.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) Or it could be a sign that the Bills had a big lead, had holding calls on almost all of those drives and weren't going to take any chances throwing the ball down field. Just about every team in the league would have relied on the run in that situation. No clue if Taylor will pan out but his "struggles" in the second half had nothing to do with being figured out. so he blames the QB for O Line holding calls? Colon-ist Pete Prisco must be smoking the wacky tabacky http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/powerrankings # 12 (up 12) Tyrod Taylor impressed in the opener, but now he has to face the Patriots. Bill Belichick is great at scheming against young quarterbacks. # 14 (up 1) The Dolphins didn't look great beating the Redskins. # 18 (up 10) The JETS beat up on a bad Browns team, but they did some good things in doing so. Now comes a tough test at Indy against the Colts. Edited September 15, 2015 by BillsFan-4-Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody actually called this in the predictions section last week before the game. imo ESPN has hardly ever given Buff much respect. ergo I might have stated as much. So Analytic's is different than the Opinion poll??? ESPN Power rankings before week 2 was posted showed Bills UP 18 - Last Week: 18 #9 up 9 What surprised me was Prissy Prisco bumping them up 12 to 12th Edited September 16, 2015 by BillsFan-4-Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
