cage Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 CBS Sports is doing a game by game prediction for each team. In this one the Bills end up 9-7 as a Wild Card team. They start strong, but then lose 4 of the last 5 at at the end of the season. Its a long season, but I think they're better than this. I don't buy the 4 game losing streak at the end and expect they'll be at least 10-6. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/bills-2020-schedule-predicting-every-game-week-by-week-odds-matchups-projections/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalphWilson'sNewWar Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Thank you for posting this. When I did my knee jerk initial prediction on the season I too had the 4 game losing streak at the end. Which was met with many “fun” reactions i haven’t seen anyone else agree with that until this CBS post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMF2006 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 We beat the Steelers and the Donkies to go 11-5 and win the division. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 I don’t see us losing to both the Broncos and Steelers, but it will be tough to beat the Chiefs. I agree with the supposition of 10-6 or a stretch 11-5. I still hold we will win the AFCE. Why so many analysts are still picking the Patriots is beyond me. BB is not the evil Emperor from Star Wars, lost three key defensive players, Brady, and Gronk. I know Gronk wasn’t playing last year, but he still will most likely help the Bucs. We have a chance to sweep the Cheats for the first time in over 20 years. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjv001 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 I don't think a wildcard team will come out of the AFC East this year. However, based on the AFC East schedule this season, a record of 9 and 7 will probably win the Division. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stank_Nasty Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) 9-7 with what the schedule looks like on paper for the bills, and the rest of the division, could mean we have a better team than last year, still win the division and be better set up for a playoff run than last years 10-6 squad. that being said.... 9-7 would be a bit disappointing Edited May 31, 2020 by Stank_Nasty 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Last year we had the benefit of flying under the radar, the easiest schedule I've ever seen, and a very healthy roster throughout the season for the most part. I don't think we get any of those breaks this season. Even with the added talent a 9-7 record wouldn't surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB, I like the optimism, but the Hawks always seems to put together a nice team, and if the Titans play like they did at the end of the season, that one is possible too. I think it was Marietta at the helm when they played us and they weren’t running the heck out of Henry in the early part of last year. I’m with you for sure on the Steelers and Raiders, although Big Ben is most likely back. They were a different team without him when we beat them. I still think we’ll beat them though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I still say we are a 10 and 6 team and win the AFC East but It is a BETTER 10 and 6 team. The team nobody wants to play in the playoffs....the team that is battle tested by the tougher schedule and we progress further I think we can make it all the way to the AFC Championship game.....and if we can do that we are a stones throw away from the big one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paup 1995MVP Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 With all the moves we made and we go 9-7? That is terrible. Losing to SF by 18 and Pittsburgh by 13 at home? That is ridiculous. With this roster we should have a shot at 12-4. I expect a big leap forward from JA this year. I expect the offense to be nite and day from last year. An improved Josh Allen. Stefan Diggs. Zack Moss, and an improved O line. And we will finally have a kicker who can bang them thru w consistency from between 55 and 60. This is our year. 12-4 and playing in the AFC Championship at a minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreggTX Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 8 or 9 wins sounds about right. I'll expect a big leap from JA when I see it. I don't see us upsetting the Chiefs either. Mahomes will clearly show why he, not Allen, should have been our QB. We'd be a clear favorite to win the SB in 2020 if we'd drafted him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont Stop Billeiving Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 The first quarter of the season stands out to me as the easier part of the schedule. The match-ups against the Jets, Dolphins, Rams, and Raiders are all winnable games and if this team is serious about becoming a genuine AFC title contender, 4-0 should be the expectation to start the season. In addition, that would mean a 2-0 division record to that point and a confidence boost heading into the tougher games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I will do my game by game prediction in August as I always do. 9-7 wouldn't surprise me. A wildcard spot would. If the Bills can only go 9-7 on this schedule I struggle to see any other AFCE team bettering that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalo2218 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Our success won’t be dictated on JAs progression alone. Both McDermott and Daboll have some improving to do theirselves. I’m gonna be keeping my optimism in check given what’s going on with hardly no training camp or workouts. But it’ll be interesting to see where this team goes from here on. I’m very curious to see how Moss does with Singletary, as well as our defense, especially if Norman regains his pro bowl form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I think they will go 10-6 and win the division. As someone already mentioned the Bills won't have the luxury of flying under the radar. Four primetime games with a chance for five if the Denver game gets flexed. You know our divisional rivals are going to be fired up to play us. The Pats will want to prove they still own the division. The Jets and Dolphins are probably annoyed hearing how great Buffalo is and how the Bills are the only team with a chance to beat the Pats for the division. Matchups against the NFCW and AFCW along with a 2nd place schedule. Unless he is hurt the Bills will get the Steelers with Ben and not their backup scrub QB. The Titans will want payback for last season especially since Bills fans took over their stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donkeys defense is stacked with the exception of their CBs. If they get good play from them, then they are by no means a gimmie. Of course, their QB is Drew Lock and they have some other issues on O, so it’s certainly a game we SHOULD win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homey D. Clown Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 after the schedule came out a while back, I posted somewhere this might be an 8 win season. there's no way they do better this year playing the same brand of football they did last year. while I loved the defense in stretches, they seemed unusually porous against the run far too many times, and the offense was pedestrian at best. NOW, if they play inspired football all year like they did in Dallas, then there's no reason not to think this is a 10-12 win team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t losing them all. 2-1 games they coukd be upset..at Arizona, hosting Pitt, a game against jets. i see them 10-6 or 11-5. Coukd be 12-4 if it means playing starters in week 16 and 17 for top seed. If they clinched division prior to week 16 they coukd rest players and then lose some games like what happened this year.
