TFBillsfan Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I know most are feeling great with the Bills sitting at 5-2. IMO, getting to 6-2 is critical. Lose and we face four straight challenging opponents. (NO, @SD, @KC, NE) SD on the road will not be a gimme. Losing to the Jets and things could change very quickly. Curious to what everyone's expectations are with these next five games. IMO, we have to come away with 3 wins at a minimum. Anything less and things look dramatically different. Let's go Buffalo!

Chuck Wagon Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Hope is we go 4-2 over the next 6 games to put us at 9-4 coming down the stretch. Expectation is we lose the next 3, then win in KC to get hopes back up, then get curb stomped by the Pats as our season spirals into another 8-8/7-9 quagmire of a year.

Roundybout Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I see it like this: JETS: W - I simply don't see how this team can lose to the Jets. I get they are playing hard, but they are so injured and we are going to feast on McCown once again. NO: W - I think we use the home field advantage one more time and beat these guys, who are terrible on the road. Also, I'll be at the game, and we seem to win big games with me there (Packers 2014, for example). SD: L - we might come to Earth here. Ingram and Bosa are quietly playing out of their minds, and we never seem to do well against the Chargers. KC: L - if this game was home, we probably win this one, but KC has our number for some reason. NE: W - Probably wrong but I think we stick it to the Cheats at home to clinch a playoff berth.

PaattMaann Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 It all starts with getting a W tomorrow night...IF we do that NO - Win...I dont see how they come into our house and beat us on our dirt...trust the process SD - coin flip really....I hope McD has us leave a day or two early and practice out there (WHY DONT TEAMS DO THIS MORE? I dont care that players are away from their family, let the bodies adjust for 48 hours)...if chargers have lost a couple in a row they could feel hopeless and not play as inspired? Rivers is still a good QB, they have weapons and a strong run game. Would need to really really play well I think to win. But if we are coming off four straight wins...we could be riding high and win this game. Thats all that I am prepared to do, and not even this much really...the NFL is a week to week league...as much as we poke fun at it, it is hard to win in the NFL.

KDIGGZ Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Thurs is must win. Can't lose the games we are supposed to win. Those will come back to haunt us. No reason we shouldn't win Jets, Fins, Colts, Fins. SD stinks and we get Saints at home. Win 5 of those 6 and we are in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree with needing to come away with 3 wins at a minimum. Obviously it would be nice, but remember that after the Pats home game, it is Indy and Miami at home. Those should be 2 wins. If it is 2-3 over the next five games, and take care of business at home vs. Colts and Fins, sitting at 9-5 going into the @ Cheats and @ Fins game, needing one win out of those two, I'll take that as worst case.

BringBackFlutie Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I think we need to beat the Jets to put us in position for the playoffs. That puts us at 6-2. The next 4 games of NO, SD, KC, and NE- we must win 2 of them. That's 8-4. We then need 2 more wins out of Miami x2, NE, and the Colts. That will get us to 10 wins. None of that is outrageous. In fact, it's probable. However, it becomes harder if we're in a position to need a win against NE or to sweep the Dolphins. So the Jets win is important.

BreezeMafia Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Beat the Jets in NY and win our remaining home games = 10 wins. Should be enough to secure at least a wildcard. But I want the Division Title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Beat the Jets. That is my expectation and it is vital to us making the run down the stretch. BEAT. THE. JETS. I'll worry about the rest in the mini bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7975 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 5-0 or we suck again same old bills. In seriousness...i don't think there is a team we can't beat on the schedule if they continue to play the way they have. We are bound to lose somewhere. Some people are bound to freak out about that.

judman Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Beat the Jets first. Then we're onto New Orleans... The NO game is my game to attend this year. I'm looking forward to seeing what should be one of week nine's best games in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking forward to seeing what should be one of week nine's best games in person. I agree, one game at a time. That said, realistically I would be happy with 3 -2 over the next five, but can also see a possible 4 and 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloFan68 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I say take 1 game at a time but I say we take the Patcheats at least once if not a sweep. Go Bills!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeGOATski Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I think they'll lose one to the Pats and Chiefs. 12-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodman19 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Realistically, if we beat the Jets we can afford to go 1-3 down the stretch and if we win an AFC game it would put us at 7-5 with a 5-3 AFC record. But that puts pressure in the final 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubs Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) Anything can happen, but my humble guess would be. @ Jets - W Saints - W @ Chargers - W @ Chiefs - L Patriots - W Colts - W Dolphins - W @ Patriots - L @ Dolphins - L 11 - 5 And I will add, I really think they can win any game.

dpberr Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Thursday feels like a trap game to me. It's the biggest worry I've got on the remaining schedule because we've been here before and it's gone poorly. Have to beat the Patriots once. My prognostication that the Bills and Pats will have identical records at their first meeting is so far holding up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
