Rockinon Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) I have been very impressed with the defense and special teams too. On offense, there seems to be too many stalled drives. However, I'm still pretty upbeat about where the offense is heading. It seems the needle is pointing up for them. Really looking forward to seeing how far they can go. Every week, they seem to make more and more things happen. Is Sammy going to be back this season? That would be one hell of a nice safety valve to add to the offense. One thing to point out though....Buffalo is ranked #3 in scoring, behind only San Diego 2nd and Atlanta 1st. They are putting points on the board and when they do get down in the redzone, they have been particularly deadly. Consistency down deep is great. At the beginning of drives though...not so much.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 @DonBanks How many legit Super Bowl contenders are there entering Week 7? I'm buying only 7.

Watkins101 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 All we have to do is win the rest of our games, and we are number 1 in the AFC east, probably in the AFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What a Tuel Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Never mind that, the game was tied 0-0 for a bit at the beginning. Wake up, Bills. Our offense hadn't done anything at that point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRT88 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 It's week 7, last I checked there's 10 games to play! If the playoffs started this week then it's a crappy six week season! Can we hold playoff off until week 13 at least?

26CornerBlitz Posted October 19, 2016 Author Share Posted October 19, 2016 Vote: Will Bills end their playoff drought?The latest FPI gives the Bills nearly an 80 percent chance of making the playoffs. Will they taste postseason for the first time this millennium? A four-game winning streak has done wonders in Buffalo. According to ESPN's Football Power Index, the Bills now stand a 78.2 percent chance of reaching their first postseason since 1999, the sixth-best odds in the entire NFL and third-best in the AFC.

Mango Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 It's weird that you think that. First off, I don't ever see him bailing out because of a fear of getting hit. If anything, he does the opposite. Secondly, you say it as it's a bad thing if he were to do it. I'd be happy if he gave up on a play in a week 5 game in the middle of the first quarter instead of taking an unnecessary collision. If he gets injured, the Bills season is done. How do you feel when you see guys like Rivers and Manning throw the ball into the ground and ending a play to avoid contact? I saw him bail on not getting hit no less than 3 times on Sunday. Agreed about Manning and Rivers to a certain extent. Where those two will throw the ball away, Tyron can take a 3rd and 20 and convert. Love that about him and that's not coachable. It is his athletic skill. What I am saying is, he bails on delivering the ball to an open receiver to save the contact. I understand it is not totally his nature or skip to pick apart defenses. What I am asking is to take the QB knock down and deliver the ball. What I see is a QB who senses or sees some pressure, and takes off, when there is absolutely an opportunity to complete a pass is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRT88 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Yes we can pump the breaks after something bad happens. How many people expect us to get to 7-2? How about 6-3? 5-4 seems most likely, which is why the playoff talk is foolish at best. How we respond to the up coming loss we know is going to happen that really matters. Miami has to be the only focus as nothing good occurs if we drop a division game and fall to 1-3 in the conference (0-2) in the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we lose to Miami we will be 1-2 in the division as we beat the Patriots at the Gillette. I think they have a good shot at beating Miami on the road and then come home and take care of business against the Patriots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John in Jax Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I guess I shouldn't be too surprised that someone would start a playoff thread after only 6 games, but it is still pretty ludicrous. How about we wait til December, where the Bills getting into the playoffs might be a real thing? Right now, it's like p*ssing into a headwind....you look like a fool and you end up wet & stinky.

LOL God forbid fans talk about their team's chances on a fan forum. When each game represents more than 6% of the season, a discussion of where the team stands each week isn't only reasonable, it's logical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Yea well unfortunately we've seen them go 3-0, 5-1, 5-2 during this drought only to have the season go completely down hill..... I don't expect that this year, but a win in Miami is crucial because the next 3 games after it are extremely tough and anything more than 1-2 in those games would shock me. Per usual, you've missed the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
