blacklabel Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Definitely too early to tell but I think (hope) they improve. I think they can. McDermott has gotten quite a bit out of not-so-great rosters but hopefully with a better OL and some better weapons for Allen, they'll take the next step. At best, I'll say 10, *maybe* 11 wins, if the defense can play just as well as last year and if the offense can put up at least 20-24 points a game, I can see 10-11 wins. At worst, 7-9.

row_33 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 6-10, for the 20th year in a row. there are grounds for optimism but you have to prove it on the field in the NFL, and how.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really view it as an easier schedule. We're swapping out: Jaguars - bad Colts - good Texans - meh Packers - meh Vikings - meh Bears - good Lions - bad Chargers - good for Cowboys - good Eagles - good Giants - bad Redskins - bad Browns - good Steelers - good Bengals - bad Broncos - meh And I think the Jets improvement and Dolphins decline are roughly a wash. Also figure McCoy's decline likely continues, and while the Bills have upgraded pretty significantly offensively, it's still probably among the worst group of weapons in the league and a roughly average OLine with solid depth.

Chuck Wagon Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Good on all you having so much optimism. The offense has gotten better, but only in the sense that we'll have actual NFL starters at most every position. I think it's hard to argue there's a single blue chip player on the entire unit, we are asking a 2nd year still raw QB to put on a super hero cape against teams that have a full year of film on him now. Still feels like a 6-8 win team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 The only thing that I know is that Pats will beat us twice. It feels good to pencil in a win vs the pats, but I won’t predict a win vs The pats until Brady retires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 keep in mind this is an early, early prediction so all you low ballers, well, get your popcorn ready because you're in for a real surprise in 2019. they will win no less than 10 and likely win 11 or 12 games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ravens are going to take a huge fall this year too... There's almost always a surprise loss and a surprise win. For me, the surprise win is Pittsburgh, surprise loss is Miami on the road. I think Baltimore is likely better than Buffalo and view Denver as being roughly the same tier (unless Allen makes a big leap in Year 2 which can't be ruled out). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Yikes. This is hard... so many unknowns. * How much will Allen progress from Year 1 to Year 2? * How will all the new starters on offense gel? * How much will Daboll improve in his second year? * Who are we going to draft? * What other FAs will we sign? 9-7. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 11-5. This is a much improved team - and we still have a draft. I know every team basically improves at this time of year, but this has been such a smart offseason so far. Big focus on o line and depth, and we finally have some real receivers. And we’re programmed to concede 2 games and the division to the Pats, but things are changing. They lost so much talent, and Brady will be 42. BB is the best, but he can’t work miracles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be back a top of their division next season. Pittsburgh is not far away. Let's all go to the game (I live here, so not hard for me). That said, I think we will be able to shut down their passing game with our secondary and get an INT or 2--the key will be stopping the run. On offense, I see us being able to score on the overrated PIT D. Edited April 3, 2019 by RyanC883 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 (edited) Home: Baltimore (W); Bengals (W); Eagles (L); Washington (W); Denver (W); Miami (W); Jets (W); Pats (L) Away: Browns (L); Pittsburgh (W); Dallas (L); Giants (W); Tennessee Twitter and Forward Lateral Cheaters (W); Miami (W); Pats (L); Jets (W). I get 11-5. I see a realistic swing of up to 2 games either way. Edited April 3, 2019 by RyanC883 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
