Rigotz Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 We can all agree that priority #1 is Josh Allen progressing and having a nice game. Outside of that, I'm curious if you're all rooting for a win or a loss? With 13 teams that either have 4, 5, or 6 losses, Week 17 will be huge in determining draft position. If the Bills lose, they could potentially be drafting top 5. If they win, they'll almost definitely be drafting outside the top 10. However, wins are important for our franchise right now and it's always fun to squish the fish. What will you be rooting for on Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sven233 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 (edited) Best case is that Allen throws for 400+ yards, 5+ TDs, no picks and we still lose (preferably because we give up 5 punt and kick returns for TDs). This way, we all see something great from Allen, the defense is not awful and Crossman definitely gets fired. The only reason to be interested in this game is to see how Allen performs. As fans, we should all want him to put up great numbers, but having a top 5-7 pick would be great as well.

I hope we hear the Shout song lots as my son views it as a highlight of attending. Instead of special teams meltdowns, how about some obvious, egregious blown calls. We all like to rip the officials anyways and it absolves the coaches and players of goat status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like A Mofo Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Sad to say because of the teams in the middle of the Top 10 in the NFL Draft, coupled with the fact the commish won't make it easy for Buffalo to move ahead of some teams in the draft, have to root for a L.

LABILLBACKER Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 The Miami game will be just another game evaluating players for next year. This season was over long ago.

Bill from NYC Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 While I want a win, I would be 100% OK with a loss.

Chuck Wagon Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Lose, because I'm not a moron who thinks some good feelings from this pointless game matter moving forward. The difference in draft value of a loss vs a win this week is roughly equivalent to a very high 2nd round pick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bray Wyatt Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I am rooting for Allen to do well but for the other team to make a last second field goal to win, so something we are confident we can build on but show that we need to work hard this off season to be better next year. So since that is what I am rooting for, it does look like I am rooting for a loss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I think we still get Metcalf at or below #10. Most bad teams need D help. So I don't mind sliding a few spots. Meanwhile legions of clueless fans are ready to revolt because we took a step back to rebuild. We need a win going into the offseason to tamp down the (needless) drama.

Alphadawg7 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 (edited) Being honest...a loss where the game was fun to watch with Allen having some nice moments. Josh is just a lot of fun to watch, so I will enjoy that part of the game. But a loss would be more valuable to this team this offseason, there are a lot of teams bunched up in the standings. We are currently in a tie for 7th, so not sure if we would pick 7th or 8th officially (although shows us at 7). However, a win could and most likely would drop us out of the the 10 and as far down as 13th. And Giants and Lions only have 1 less win. So if we lose and they won, we could also move up another spot or two possibly to as high as 5th with a loss. So a win or loss could be the difference in picking as high as 5th or as low as 13th (depending on other outcomes and what the tie breakers would be). Thats a big spread...give me the loss, its too important to our draft slotting. Edited December 26, 2018 by Alphadawg7 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden*Wheels Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 ugh....I mean...my 7 year old basically shamed me before the Lions game. He was all amped up on FRIDAY for the game, and I felt, dad needs to keep it real here, so I explained there were no miracles like last year possible. No playoffs. He said "Dad i don't care about playoffs, I just want to win". Yeah, that made me feel pretty lame, being like "why do you care". But even being ashamed a bit...I'd rather have the better draft position next year. I don't want to lose, but, whatever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but the question was specifically which we are "rooting" for, which is why I had to clarify. It sure would be nice to draft in the top 5, but when I watch on Sunday, I will be hoping to see the Fish, squished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Senator Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 (edited) Like many, I want a win, but am resigned to this being a lost season. Other than Allen, I don’t really see that we did any rebuilding - only tearing apart. I’ll accept a loss, if it lands us Jonah Williams. .

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 At this point, I'd hate to have the ***** season we had then end up drafting 12-14 because of a needless win over Miami. In 45 years rooting for the Bills, I've never wanted them to lose, but for the first time, I'm ok with it because there are some good teams playing bad ball this year and I don't want them drafting in front of us. We need to pick as high as possible. I'd hate to see someone step in front of us and take "our" guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I voted for a L, but more important, I hope the Bills finish in the same place in division standings as the Titans, so I can make a roadie to Nashville IN 2019! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
