It’s truly hard not to feel this way.  Decades of fandom has worn down optimism.  There are strong hints of turning the proverbial corner but we’ve been here before only to be crushed under the weight of misplaced optimism. 

...and irrational exuberance.  You stated the case aptly, but a little Greenspan was added for emphasis.  ?

Comes down to Josh Allen.  He improves and has a 2nd season like Geoff, Wentz, Trubisky, or Mahomes they do win the division.  The defense will be stout.  The improved line should help create a rushing attack.  The offense with a run game will make Allen prolific in PA.

I think a lot of the people who have really analyzed the Bills and their moves are predicting at least a WC shot at the end of the season. Then there are the lazy ones who just regurgitate the same rhetoric. They're the same people who talk constantly about Allen's completion percentage but have probably never seen more than a couple of games. 

 

The media tends to be a copycat thing so as more 'experts' pick us to do well, more will inevitably change their minds as well.

Well if you don't believe it when you see it, then I think that would be weird.  

 

Not for today's world. People don't believe facts, see things & dismiss them as fake or fixed, and disregard anything they don't want to hear/see.

It's pretty common actually lol

I mean, I think the Bills have a better chance than the Jets or Dolphins.

 

Gase is an awful coach and I'm just waiting for Bell to throw a punch in the 3rd quarter of a game. Flores seems like he has a plan, but they are a year or two away from being competitive.

 

Bills added a ton of talent and if Allen takes the leap we all hope/expect him to, they could be a really tough out each week

If we were in another division, sure. But the Pats pretty much have it in the bag. They get 11 or 12 wins every single year. They just won the Superbowl. Brady is still a good QB. Bill Belichick is still the best coach ever. Just not seeing it.

Myself personally, Tom Brady aside from being arguably the best QB that ever played the game has had a very good string of luck when it comes to avoiding the kind of injuries that alone or through accumulation would end his historical career in the NFL.

 

You can't escape father time or the Defense that is tailor made to beat you.

 

We're coming for you Brady...

I am going to chime in here and say that I think Buffalo has a legit shot to win the AFCE this year.  For me, I think the key will be the start to the season.  We just have so many new players and pieces to fit together, could take them a little bit to adjust to each other and find their groove.  If they can come together quickly, then I think the AFCE title is within reach.  I think NE is likely still a double digit win team, so Buffalo will need to get to 11 or 12 wins to take the crown IMO and for that to happen they need to open the season 3-1 and preferrably one of those victories is week 4 against NE.  If we do that, then I think its our division this year.  

 

We should win weeks 2 and 3...on road vs Giants and home opener against Bengals.  Week 1 on road vs Jets will be a tough test.  I dont have a lot of respect for Gase, but still have to acknowledge they have a young promising QB going into his 2nd year too and added some good pieces in draft and FA as well to that team.  Although their lack of significant OL improvements could be a big achilles heal for them this year and stunt their upside a bit.  So I think we are at least 2-1, and could reasonably be 3-0 going into our week 4 home game against NE.  

 

Man I cant wait for the season to begin!

Been waiting for the day for a very long time now. If it does happen the Bills future is bright as we indeed have the real thing in JA and company.

 

For reals.  

 

For the first time in a long time, I have fully drank the Kool-aid heading into this year.  Not only do I think the Bills will make the playoffs, but I think we will win 11 to 12 games.  And it has a lot to do with how much I believe in McD, Beane and especially Josh.  

 

I honestly think that McD will be seen here shortly as one of the better HC's in all of football and Beane will be considered one of the best GM's in football.  And Josh of course for me is on a path to be one of the best young QB's in the NFL and before too long I think he will eventually develop into a consensus top 10 overall, maybe even top 5 QB in the NFL.  

 

Homerism runs strong through my veins this year and I am cool with that.  Much more fun to be optimistic than running around here trying to pee in everyones cereal and stick to the Dr. Negative prognosis some love to dwell on.

I think this team is either gonna shock or disappoint most people.  There doesnt seem to be a lot of people in the middle.

 

The potential is there but will it all come together.  McDermott and company have their work cut out for them with so many new faces.

At this point, I think the Bills are the 2nd best team in the AFCE....so...a lucky bounce here and there for us....unlucky bounces here and there for NE and it could happen....I don't think it will, but it's sure is more likely than years before...just the fact we're talking about it without bursting in laughter is a great sign.....

I haven't looked at the all the replies in this thread but is anyone upset someone is talking good about the Bills?

Some are mad that the secret is out without Leroi being able to feed it to McConjecture.
