JerseyBills Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) For starters , I'm grateful to have Taylor. He had a rough outing in 2/5 games, but you look around the league and you can count on one hand on qbs that show consistentcy. I think he'll adapt this offense. Just from watching Taylor for 5 weeks, #2 and #7 defenses , On The Road, btw, I've actually became grateful to have him and optimistic he will improve our offense, get us scoring again. He has consistently not turn the ball over. Looked very good in 3/5 games,and nobody mentions the other 2 games were on the road versus a top 10 D. Mariota is stinking it up at home versus Indy The SB is up for grabs. And I think we are in the mix. Again , no consistentcy. We've been consistent on D and ST , most teams I've seen weren't consistent in much. NE is definitely a shell of last year's team. There will be no rebound, they're going to struggle to win week in and out. The East will be up for grabs.. the rest of the AFC I look at these teams and they all look beatable. I believe in this team,they have an aura about them. They carry themselves like winners, I just get such positive vibes that this team can improve and put themselves right in the middle of the contenders Edited October 17, 2017 by JerseyBills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A concerning thing to me was a recent thread about this week where probably more than half of the posters said they weren't watching a single game this weekend b/c of the bye. Obviously people have life commitments that they have to tend to, but a strong sentiment for this weekend was "no bills no football". I wonder how many people actually watch other teams play or simply rely on highlights to formulate their opinions of players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is confirmation bias. I want a thing to be true, so I imagine it, so it starts to look natural inside my head so it seems possible and reasonable. The Super Bowl will go to one of the six or seven or eight best teams, as always. Probably four or five of those teams simply play consistently at a higher level. The rest are opportunistic enough and have good enough defenses and QBs that they can play inconsistently through a game and yet consistently win. We aren't one of the eight best in the league, Auras are the thing you find about your favorite team when you can convince yourself it's there.

Punching Bag Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 After watching our defense, I get pumped. After watching the offense, I throw up in my mouth multiple times in seconds Good news is you are probably getting used to the taste. Good post. A concerning thing to me was a recent thread about this week where probably more than half of the posters said they weren't watching a single game this weekend b/c of the bye. Obviously people have life commitments that they have to tend to, but a strong sentiment for this weekend was "no bills no football". I wonder how many people actually watch other teams play or simply rely on highlights to formulate their opinions of players. I actually watched more games because game was on and I was not travelling to bar. My wife asked me if there really were that many football games on since recently I rarely watch more than the Bills if they rarely are on TV.

Yeah he is far out there if he is trying to say Bills are Super Bowl contenders, We all know KC is beating Philly in Super Bowl this year. LARams will lose to Philly in NFC Championship game. Kind of a 3 way trifecta for Beano's/McDerma's amazing acquired draft picks show. Edited October 17, 2017 by cba fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get into the playoffs this year, you have a legit shot at SB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurman#1 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) Point was there's no dominant teams . If you get into the playoffs this year, you have a legit shot at SB Then the point was off-point. The reason there are no dominant teams is because it's early. Later in the season there will be dominant teams. Every year people say anyone can win the Super Bowl if you make the playoffs. Every year there are a bunch of teams that make the playoffs as complete fodder teams with no chance outside a couple of plane crashes. And those teams lose. The same will be true this year. The better teams will get better as the season goes along. There will be a very small group of very good teams.

KDIGGZ Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 You watch other teams and you feel good about this offense? I watch other teams and get jealous because they can actually pass the ball down the field. But hey we have a good defense so all is forgiven right?
