BillsBlue Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I just want to take a second and say wow what an awesome start to the season? It's not often that we get to go into the abyss that is the bye week with a bounce in our step. I'd say that the team has met what I thought our ceiling was with our current roster so far this year. MCD deserves applause what an awesome coach, he has brought a championship caliber swagger to this team. The teams focus especially on defense is awesome to see. It's nice to see Edmunds earning his freakazoid name tag ? almost every big play on defense ends with him creaming the ball-carrier!!! John Brown was a genius value add by Beane as was Beasley and the chemistry is budding nicely between them and JA. Frank Gore made shady expendable he's a machine and I feel lucky to see him ride off into the sunset a Bill. I can't wait to see what Duke has in store for us in the future as well as Knox and Singletary ? Hold on boys and girls it's fixing to be an interesting season, who knows how good this team can be once the offense gels further and the same can be said for the defense that's already playing championship ball? 3 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALLEN1QB Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 The defense is playing awesome no doubt. I am kind of frustrated for the lack of interceptions there are so many tipped balls over the middle and just seems like there is never a defender there to pick them off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BITE ME Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 The math looks great. 4-1 with a very easy schedule. WINS. Dolphins, Redskins, Broncos, Dolphins, Jets. They are a combined 0-20 or something like that. You get to 9 WINS. SPLIT these GAMES. Eagles, Browns, Ravens, Steelers, Cowboys, Patriots. You get to TWELVE wins. 12-4 is my prediction. #5 seed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beane gets a lot of credit. Us positive fans kind of expected that. The new OLinemen and WRs would create a major upgrade, and they have. TEs are a surprise, a pleasant one. I admit I still don't get why to get rid of Shady this year but what's done is done. I was actually wary the D wouldn't be as good, because of age and not being as "lucky" as last year, etc. Was I wrong or what! That D is top level. And while we all have to be "all in" this year, isn't great to know there is a lot of cap space for 2020? Beane and McD really have put a great plan together. Last year had to be sacrificed and now it's on! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno why people keep automatically counting the Steelers as a hard game. They're 1-4 and might be on their 7th QB by then. Add the Steelers to the first group, and those games are against a group with a combined record of 1-28 (counting the Dolphins twice). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that does happen many years and those are the ones the road team often does win. I'm not so sure of a split in them either maybe 2-4, but still would give them an 11-5 which probably would still give them the #5 seed. Will depend how much they actually improve as the seaosn goes on. If the offense starts playing better and scoring more points, then maybe.

Success Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 To paraphrase a famous Bills coach, 4-1, baby! Where else would you rather be! I love it. I almost love that we came up short against the Pats - I'm sure they're in a mode of wrapping up the division now. But we'll be nipping at those entitled heels all season, and that game at Gillette is gonna mean something. The division is still up for grabs. We have to win those games that we should win, and I think we will. This is such a different team from what we're used to. If Allen can tighten it up just a bit, and get that deep ball going, the sky is the limit. We're earned this! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Keep in mind, the Eagles will be on the third leg of a BRUTAL road trip. Great situation for the Bills. The biggest shame is that we should all be thinking about 12-4 or 13-3 and a first-round bye right now, which is absolutely orgasmic to think about. A divisional in Buffalo! But we can't, because of the Patriots. Only realistic scenario in which that happens is a Brady injury. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsfaninSB Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) So happy they won today. A loss would have been miserable over the next two weeks. When they released the schedule, I was happy the bye week was early. Gives the Bills a chance to correct issues before it is too late. Last year it was in week 10 and useless. I think Josh will benefit from a chance to regroup. Extra happy now with how banged up they are currently. With Miami to follow it helps our margin of error and thus gives a borderline healthy player an extra week to heal if needed.

The only reason Shady is gone is because McBeane knew he wouldn't accept a lesser role in the offense without making noise. I'm sure they would have loved to keep him but Shady has always been more of a me guy than a process guy. They chose team culture over a diminishing talent, that's all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
