Lv-Bills Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 (edited) If we can get the Steelers, 10-6 looks ok. 9-7 looks even more realistic. However, if we get 10-6....We can be King Schitt of Turd Island. I guess that's better than where we usually are and get us in the wildcard.

Denver and Jets, and that's asking for much at this point. We are going to lose in Miami this week. Going down into the heat against a team on a roll, looking for revenge in a game they should have won. I don't think we come out with a win there. Fitz will be ready. Denver will be at home and I believe we will have enough at home to win a sloppy game. Jets at home last game. Again, I believe we will have enough at home to beat them.

Blank Stare Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Love his optimism, but barring an unforeseen surge, this is not an 11-5 team with the schedule we have left. Not with this offense and the defenses sudden failure to stop the run. Maybe 10-6, but could realistically finish 8-8 or 9-7. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesla03 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 any other above average coaching staff would get to 10-11 wins with the schedule we were handed McD and his crew will manage to crawl to 8 wins this season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShakAttack Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I think all of the “we have to win X games because we are going to lose Y games” arguments are ridiculous. all you have to do is look at all of the scores this past week to find out why. Many teams that weren’t supposed to win ended up winning. we can win or lose any of these games. Some just have better chances than others.

Tesla03 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Mcdermott has had 3 years to fix our defense 3 years later we have no pass rushers. no run stoppers. a mediocre LB group and 2 good DB's. Some of this is also on Beane. this whole "process" thing looks to be sinking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you wanna look to where the process failed it’s the offense, but you can’t fault them for trying (in terms of how many pieces were brought in to attempt to make the offense more productive). As much as I hate to say it, it starts with QB & OC, whichever you wanna blame the most Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njbuff Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 The problem with the 11-5 prediction is that the D has fallen off the cliff and the O hasn’t shown progression. Will that change? Anyone’s guess. It had better change to get to 11-5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TroutDog Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 It’s funny. What did Kyle say from NFL Films? Any time you’re trying to predict week to week in the NFL is a ‘fools errand’. You hit certain teams when they’re hot and certain teams when they’re cold (ie: see MN last year). The Bills are a 6-3 team with a stout D. Ten is possible, maybe more. It all depends on how they handle their own business week to week and the same goes for the opposition. Plus 46 other factors. I’ll let everyone guess who those are. ?

Real McClappy Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Well, usually we are 4-5 at this point of the year and trying really, really hard to figure how we get to 9-7 or 10-6 for a possible playoff birth. It's much easier to think how we go 4-3 over the next 7 games than 6-1 (or 5-2 for a chance). If we can't beat the Dolphins, Broncos, Jets and one of the other 4 we don't belong in the playoffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDingus Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I'm still guess 9-7 but wouldn't be surprised to see 8-8. Honestly not trying to be a downer, but it's hard to see this team hitting 10 wins the way we play. The AFC Wildcard spots are looking more competitive too, so playoffs aren't close to guaranteed either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are playing well and have pulled together as a team, trying to prove the world wrong about the tank.

Even Sal is starting to lean more toward the Murphy and Taster style, as opposed to being a nice medium between One bills live, and the rest of the station. Sal got into it a little bit with Schopp yet again on Monday. He is such a hardcore fan of the team he literally can't separate Sal the Buffalonian Bills Fan from "Sal the Reporter". He's a joke.

The Bills certainly have their flaws but this is a game they should win...no excuses. I actually think Miami playing them tough the first time will help the Bills out here. They know they aren't good enough to take anyone for granted so I expect the Bills to play much better this week especially the D who has to be pissed they couldn't close the deal against the Browns. Does anyone really think Miami who sucks bigtime is going to win three in a row. Take the Bills and give the points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T master Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 It amazes me that 2 guys (Murph & Tasker) that live around the game 24/7 & it is their job to know about football can know so little ! I heard Tasker say that the other day on the show & then he layed most of the blame on Josh being a young QB, well i will give him that Allen is still growing but the kid in SF last year Mullens & the guy for the Jags this year Minshew should really suck but don't if being a young QB has anything to do with it . Not to mention this is Allens 2nd yr in this scheme !! And Tasker also thinks that Dabol is doing a good job & it's just that Josh isn't executing the plays correctly which yes could be part of it but not using Josh's natural athleticism by moving him around on boot legs & Dabol not giving the running game a chance to even get going is killing the offense & Josh's development . With the talent on the offensive side of the ball there should be no reason why they can't score at least 24 points a game & i think most of that is on the coaches ! Tasker along with his cohort need to leave the real analyzing to those more competent ! Given the remaining teams on the schedule I'm not betting on 11 wins & there could be the possibility well never mind i don't even want to go there ...

colin Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 the only way we get to double digit wins and the playoffs is if the offense figures out how to be somewhere approaching consistent, which to me means running singletary and not asking our QB, line, and WRs to attempt to do something they just aren't good at. if we fail to make the playoffs, and even if we do but don't really get the offensive ship corrected, i'm 100% certain Daboll get's sent out the door.
