ChevyVanMiller Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 It would be nice to tie the record. The Miami game might not mean anything, so the starters might sit for most of it. I’d be happy with 12-4 if it includes one last smack down of the *Pats before we turn our full attention to the playoffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Boy Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I never wavered off 13-3. Unless we start Barkley against the Fins and rest a bunch of starters we will end 13-3. ( I would prefer 12-4 and rested guys with the last game being meaningless, though) All the preseason talk about “ Tough schedule” and the panic after an injury riddled squad dropped a couple games against quality opponents didn’t cause me to blink. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, and you want to have some “ kick” for the final laps. We are currently well positioned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year the Bills are that team 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanSD Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 12-4 is more likely 13-3, but 13-3 is absolutely do-able. The most likely L right now looks like Miami with Barkley under center. But our remaining games are all games that we'll be favored in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real McClappy Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) I had us pegged around 11-5 based of the insane schedule. Could you imagine this years team with last years schedule?

BreezeMafia Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Yes they can, And I hope they stay motivated to win out. Cleveland has a legit chance to beat Pitt last game of the year at home in Cleveland. Both happen, at worst Bills are the #2 seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Noggin Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I'm not going to count on a sweep of the team in Foxboro (who shall not be named) until it happens. They are still a difficult matchup, and they'll most likely have Gilmore this time around. They are a physical team who plays good defense. Kind of like Miami. And, to a lesser extent, Denver. So I'm going to enjoy one game at a time, and be thankful for the games we do win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 The notion of going even 12-4 with the schedule we had this year is nuts. A lot of really good teams would have gone 9-7 or 10-6 against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I thought, and stuck with, 11-5 at the beginning of the year and throughout the bye week. But if this team keeps playing like they have been post Hail Murray, then we very well could end up 13-3. Hopefully after that a few more on the way to a Lombardi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Freaking Hail Murray! The situation I want to avoid at all costs is playing Miami with our B team in a win and you're in game for Miami in which we will play them again the following week. It's been a while but I remember that same scenario about 10 years ago the Jets played the Bengals. Bengals already clinched so they didn't play hard. Jets won and following week the Jets beat the Bengals again. Miami's defense is legit. I don't see Allen having as easy a day as he did back in week 2. Don't want to give Miami any confidence they can come into Buffalo in January and win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness the two 13-3 season, the Bills had clinched the #1 overall seed with one or two weeks to go and played mostly subs. That 1990 season, their last game Gail Gilbert played QB and lost to Washington, they didn't even bother going to Reich, in 91 Reich did play the last game and lost to Detroit. If it had mattered, they may have won the last game. The 88 season, recall they cliched the division around Thanksgiving weekend, then went and lost 3 of their last 4 games. I recall if they had won even one of those last four games the AFC championship game would have also been played in Buffalo instead of in Cinni where they lost. They lost to the Bengals 3 times that year, pre-season, regular season, and AFC championship game. Last game this year also could become meaningless, but not very likely as either could be playing for a chance to move up to the #2 seed or with a loss drop to #4. The one way it could become meaningless is if the Bills get flexed to the Sunday night game as all the results are then in. Likely for that same reason would make more sense for the Bills to play the Fish at 4:00 and flex the Pitt-Cleveland game to Sunday night.
