taterthegator Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Look at who the Jets have beaten. They have done a better job of beating nobodies than we have. We lament about the Bengals and Pats losses but how do you lose to Jax, NYG, KC, Philly. Simple as that. Beat all the teams you're supposed to and a third of the teams you're not and you will host a play-off game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prissythecat Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I would rather be at 8-5, holding a playoff spot, and in control of my own destiny. Having a paper tiger is meaningless . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobobonators Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I actually like where the Bills are long term over the jets right now. I don't think they make the playoffs, but even if they do i cant see them winning a road game. i think we have the younger, more talented team, and poised to get much better on both sides of the ball nextt year.Our key production comes from younger players overall. Shady is the only one getting to that age. Jets to me, outsdie of the D line, are getting key contributions from older players that i think will decline in production next year. Secondary, QB, WR, ... Plus, i think they will be sucked in by Fitz, and it will set them back for a couple of years...and i like Fitz. And they prolly do have an advantage at Head Coach, and i call the OCs even. Am i just nuts? Just looking for the silver lining? No way - I'd rather be the Jets with a serious shot at the playoffs. And the way the Jets are built, they can win a game or even two in the playoffs if things break right for them. We have plenty of question marks going forward and nothing is a sure thing in the NFL. So give me a shot now and/or next year as opposed to what may be 3-5 yrs from now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I'd rather be the Bills with their overall better and younger roster. The Jets, even if they make the playoffs, are going nowhere with Fitz and the lack of explosive players on offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These lax teams you lament over, are you aware that with 2 key wins the JAGS can win their division as could the Giants and possibly KC?

The Jets, even if they make the playoffs, are going nowhere with Fitz and the lack of explosive players on offense. The Jets rank top 10 in total yds/game and pts/game (both higher than the Bills). Gailey and Fitz have that offense running at a pretty high level. For as many explosive players as the Bills may have, we can't get the job done consistently.

26CornerBlitz Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Look at the Jets' great list of conquests this season: http://www.newyorkjets.com/schedule/season-schedule.html I'm not impressed at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobobonators Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 That's so nice. Are they any threat to do any playoff damage? Well considering they rank top 5 in total defense and top 10 in total offense, why not? Not like I'm rooting for them b/c I absolutely hate them...but just being objective. Not only that, they're actually improving as the season goes on, which is exactly what you want to see as a fan of your team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 We did beat them... and our defense looked pretty stout in that game believe it or not. They also have to go through 2 divisional opponents in the last 3 games (Which they lost the previous game).... including NE who wants home field advantage. Their playoff shot is way tougher than KC or Pitts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once they face better teams in the playoffs they'll be heading home if they make it to begin with. They are no threat and those stats mean nothing to me.

In a probably close to empty stadium, in a meaningless game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And lost the game by that same score. Our offense was the reason we almost lost. But again - we didn't lose. We won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
