I've maintained since last spring if this years team wins 9 vs this schedule its probably a better team than last years 10-6 squad. I think Fitzmagic had 99% to do with the success of that offense. They have no one in the backfield or outside. Tua is going to struggle and their oline is not good. Fitz throwing to the right guy in 1.0 seconds wont get you hit. Having 0 players open vs Alabama when everyone was open is going to be interesting. This seems 100% like an owner move. I think everything good Mia had begins to fade.

I still think the Bar Bill Tavern has the best wings. No idea how you can think Duffs' are better, but to each his own!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can rediscover something on offense I do give us a shot against Seattle. Their D is horrible. The defensive line is getting pushed around at least as much if not more than our own. When do they get Adams back? Anyone know? I think the Dolphins best chance to beat us was starting Fitz. He was always up for our games and made them tough. Against a rookie QB, I like our chances.

The schedule is exactly as tough as it looked to be, on paper, coming into the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost every team is playing better than expected or getting hot before they play us. Arizona is better than expected. Seattle is better or at least Russ is Chargers with Herbert is better...at least a tough game San Fran...playing great all of a sudden Miami is better than expected. Titans...better than expected. Pittsburgh...better than expected. Its been a damn gauntlet already and ain't getting any easier. AZ, Seattle, Miami, Titans and Steelers all as expected. SF nowhere near as good as expected. Them 2-5 Chargers are really scary??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gets us to 10 wins. Not optimistic about Cards, Niners, Seahawks or Steelers. Yes but that has the makings of a one and done division champ in the playoffs if we can’t play with the NFL elite Edited October 27, 2020 by AlCowlingsTaxiService 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan692 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 If we stomp on the Patriots the schedule wont feel too bad but if we have trouble ugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) Schedule is exactly how most predicted. It's a tough schedule. I've said all offseason the Bills will likely be a better football team then they were last year but have a worse record.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Who didn't think this schedule was hard? It was why many felt 9-7 would still be a good year. I belive i picked 10-6 with a loss to Rams but a win over Tenn. Some had Denver being more difficult than Chargers. Pittsburgh was a question mark only because Ben was coming off elbow surgery. Most knew Miami would be better. Most knew New England would be worse. I thought Cam would be better but many on here felt he was washed up. They may be right but Patriots have terrible skill players so hard to know. Sweep the division, beat Denver and eak out one more win against one NFC West opponent gets them to 10-6. A loss this week to Pats at home will make 9-7 or even 8-8 more realistic. Best upset chances are in the NFC West. Seattle is one dimensional and they have to travel. Arizona lost Drake and 49ers are still a MASH unit. 7 hours ago, AlCowlingsTaxiService said: Yes but that has the makings of a one and done division champ in the playoffs if we can’t play with the NFL elite Already beat elite Rams and lots can happen between now and January including hosting a playoff game.

warrior9 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I really don't think this schedule is very daunting.... The Seahawks haven't beaten a team with a winning record and are giving up a TON of yards on defense. They've won a ton of close games and I think they will keep coming back down to earth. The Cardinals are just "meh" to me and are boom or bust. They threw up a stinker against the Panthers and have done that often under Kingsbury. They can't run the ball and also give up a ton of yards. Sure we have the 9er's and Steelers but none of those teams really scare me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Those teams are looking at their own schedules and seeing the Bills, and thinking the same thing. I have a good feeling about this team down the stretch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hasn't... It's just had injuries.. When we were putting up a ton of points, we were 4 wide quite a bit. Since John Brown injury, we haven't been 4 wide as much. I'm guessing Daboll and JA are more comfortable reading defenses and seeing the field this way and our talent out matches the defensive talent most of the time when we can have Bease, Brown, Diggs, Davis then either Singletary, Knox, Moss on the field.

SoCal Deek Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) We're once again sitting at 5-2. The exact same record as in 3 of the last 4 years. The previous two of those we made the playoffs and of course this one's still a work in progress. What it tells you is that the schedules come and go each season. You can only play the team on the other sideline each week. Edited October 27, 2020 by SoCal Deek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seattle is a weak team sans the MVP QB. SAN Fran & ‘Diego’ look to be pretenders as well. Rothlesberger seems back to his old self, but we play then at home -meaning no Stiller fans. Worse we can do is split with Miami. 12-4, Division title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
