I'm calling it now Bills have best all around team in AFCE

[likei've]

Come on man, our fans are the worst.

 

How unrealistic can you get?

So a dude starts a thread about his team you don't agree with and now all the fans of that team are the worst?

 

meh...

[GG]

Paragraphs are your friends.

[BillsFan130]

Is this a joke?

[Augie]

Paragraphs are your friends.

In this case, I didn't tough it out, so the lack of paragraphs is MY new friend!

[Domdab99]

They're called paragraphs, Dude. Use them.

After watching what happen last night and how the patriots played. That Pats Def will not finish better then 20th. The pats have a big problem at wideout and only 4 good players on Def they have some real big problems. So it's game on in this AFC East Division. I feel the Bills have the best Def in the AFC East and will finish top 5 in the NFL. The offense will be better then last years team. This is a balanced team with a great punter and FG kicker. We have a coach that is all about being prepared and using there team first approach. Such as using time outs and challenges correctly and also being ready to run plays and coaching this team correctly. That carp show that we had from Rex and his assistant coaches the last few years was embarrassing. We now have real solid coaches Frazier is a veteran Def coach and Dennison is a proven offensive coach who has proven to be very sound. I'm not the biggest Tyrod fan but he does a lot of things well and he is the best mobile QB in the NFL. If the Bills use his strengths I can see them being in the top 10 again for the 3rd year in a row on offense. Some things I saw in preseason is our Guard John Miller has stepped his game up. I think you will find that are WIde outs will do well. Zay Jones will make us forget Sammy. Mathews is really a solid receiver and is better then Robert Woods who left for the Rams. I expect the best fullback in football who we picked up from the Falcons Patrick Dimarco will be a huge factor. Watch out for are Tight Ends this year. They will be a key factor. TE Logan Thomas will be a X-factor that will come on later in the season. We're 3 deep at TE. I just love how this team is organized. So I don't know what will happen, but I think the Bills as a team are being under estimated. When I look at this division I feel were the best all around team. I don't know if the Bills can win the division but we all might be surprised how this season plays out. I predict we will be 10-6 and in the running to win the AFC East.

 

I love the enthusiasm and confidence!

Typical overreaction to Week one.

If the Bills defense finishes top 5 and the offense is better than last year, they'll be serious playoff contenders this year...

 

Nothing in their recent moves screams out "serious playoff contenders" to me.

Put the crack pipe down.

[ganesh]

The hoodie will make the adjustments and that defense will be terrific in the 2nd half of the season. But the Steelers can now sense an opening this year!

[berg1029]

I know the Pats losing feels sort of feels like the Bills winning.. but don't get the Bills and Chiefs mixed up!

[JTO]

Would be messed up if Pats purposely tank to nab a top 5 QB. Then the can trade garrapolo.

[Mark Vader]

I'm as big of an optimist as anyone on this board.

 

That being said.....One game at a time.

[BilLions]

I'm calling a loss to the Jets. Everyone has this W locked up and in the bank. What happens every time we do that?

[Ga boy]

I'm the glass half-full guy. I don't see the D being half bad, probably top ten. I don't see the O being half bad, probably middle of the pack, but could be top ten. I want to see Shady shake n bake, and Tyrod throw some lasers within 2 secs. So we could get to 10 wins if the O clicks. Let's get this thing rockin n rollin!!!!

[NewEra]

How did I miss this gem yesterday?

 

Good for you OP. I've felt the thenlast 20some years. Not this year, but I believe we finally have a direction and the future is bright

This guys on the Marty McFly diet :lol: percs vals and trees.

Gotta love it! Church of Marty. Hookers drugs and fried food. (No hard drugs)*

 

We are better than 3-13 for sure. We surprise some people this year and squeek in the WC maybe even upset in the 1st round. Go Bills!

[dgrochester55]

I think the OP is a little over the top, but some of it he's right. The D should be better. They have better starting safeties and the line will play better in the 4-3. The CBs seem adequate. P Brown is better in the 4-3. If the O can perform near last year's level they have a shot. Plus they have a better place kicker.

 

I don't think they make the playoffs. But I also don't think they're a 2-5 win train wreck.

5-6 Wins is very possible, the schedule is not friendly at all. The first half of the schedule is very tough. Week 1 and 8 are the Jets, those are winnable, not locks but winnable. Between that is @ Carolina, Denver, @Atlanta, @ Cincinnati, Tampa Bay, Oakland. To be 4-4 they would have to sweep the Jets and then pull off two wins in that six game stretch.

 

The second half has more winnable games but also has two against New England and a game @ Kansas City. 2015 and 2016 gave Buffalo a generous amount of winnable games. 2017 is brutal. The only 5 games that i see where Buffalo could possibly be the favored team are the two jets games, the two dolphins games and home against Indianapolis. If Buffalo is even contending for the playoffs, they will have overachieved.
