Time to go on record if you honestly believe this is still a SB caliber team or even a playoff team at this point

At the beginning of the year I said 12-5 and loss in 2nd round of the playoffs, also assumed winning a consecutive division title. Can find the post later if needed.

 

But sadly I'm now revising that prediction to 9-8 and missing out on the playoffs altogether. If you are still confident in this team though feel free to chime in or let me know what you think.

 

Yes covid and injuries but if you've been paying attention there was no stopping this trainwreck from happening and coming full circle today even if the roster was 100% full strength.

We'll see.  We were not going to get the 1 seed regardless.  

 

Any way you slice it, we have to win 3 games. The road might actually be better, depending on Buffalo weather.

 

I'm not so jaded that I won't have hope at this point, especially when we're still in the WC race, are a 1/2 game back of the division, and have 2 games w/ the division leader left.

 

Let's see how it goes.  We could lose the rest, or we could get healthy, sweep the Pats and roll into the playoffs.

I said, in the pre-game thread, I felt the Bills had to come out of the Indy, Saints, Patriots, Bucs stretch at at least 3-1 to be considered a contender. I was roasted for saying that. Why? I don’t know.

 

Obviously it now looks like 3-1 was wishful thinking. This team is not that good. It doesn’t make us any less fans, or make us wish any less that they will get it together. It is what it is. They feasted on some pathetic teams and when the going has been tough, they have folded like a cheap suit.

 

They can stop with their cute, love each other, everyone has a hot sauce, Shnow-man, blah, blah, blah. They appear mentally weak and I, for the first time, wonder if McDermott is the answer. Seriously, a 50 yard FG in crap conditions on 4th and 5 when down 24-7? That is PATHETIC.

 

This team will be lucky to make the playoffs. If they do they most likely will be one and out.

 

There. I’m on the record.

As long as we make the playoffs, you never know what will happen.

 

It all depends on luck, timing, health, and the specific matchup we have in the playoff game(s).

 

We could have lost our first game to the Colts last year, easily.

 

Instead we won 2 and made it to the AFC championship.

 

You never know!

The top AFC teams are getting manhandled this week, so sure they still have a shot. If the can beat the hot pats then that should confirm it for you doubters


Chiefs haven’t played yet and the Ravens won. The injured Titans lost.

 

The Bills we’re manhandled. Who are the other top AFC teams that were manhandled this week?
