BillsFan4 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 I never really felt like they were a Super Bowl contender this season. Maybe after the KC game but that was about it. The defense has played well for the most part (outside of a couple bad games and/or quarters) but I think the offense has struggled too often. I don’t care what the stats say, they don’t look like a top 5 offense in the NFL. I don’t even know if the Bills are the best team in their division right now. The Patriots are getting better every week and keep on winning. If the Bills don’t win the division they could miss the playoffs completely. Especially with their dog **** conference record. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills404 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 When we actually play to our potential on both sides of the ball we're SB contenders. Too bad we're the most inconsistent team in football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconator Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 I'm confident we are a playoff team. Once in the playoffs, anything can happen. Tampa won 3 road games last year to get to the Super Bowl. Anything can happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aristocrat Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Depends on matchups. If star and edmunds play does Taylor run wild? Spencer brown help the o line? Tampa got their ass kicked a few times last year and won in the wild card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Put me on record as saying I'm not giving up on an injury plagued team in November. See you all in LA on 2/13. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All they need to do is just get there. I won't let a crappy weather game sum up an otherwise good season. They haven't been hot all year. They've had a few games they put up a lot of points, but...this team is so inconsistent they don't scare anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Not a physical football team. Have yet to beat a physical football team. Finesse doesn’t win in bad conditions. If we were in a dome, maybe. I don’t see this team winning in bad conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrbojanglezs Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Playoff team, win a game or two, would have to get real hot and lucky to make the SB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiltonWaddams Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Not a playoff team. This team has shown that they don’t have what it takes to come up big in games that they need to or should win. The Jaguars, colts, Titans and Pittsburgh provided ample evidence to everyone watching. If this team was as good as we thought they were at the beginning of the year, they wouldn’t have lost any of these games. The reason I say that they’re not a playoff team is that they just can’t win enough games out of the rest to be one. The team that was put on the field today might beat the Jets and Falcons. That literally makes them 8-9. Not a chance at playoffs at that record. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandhill Mike Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 The favorites change from week to week. We have the same team that everyone loved at 4-1. All this MVP and Super Bowl talk is nonsense at this point of any season. This team can get hot and they can play with anyone. They came up a half-yard short against the Titans in THEIR house, then lost a game they shouldn't have (Jags) and a tough matchup game (Colts). The Colts probably wanted it more. A loss for them and they would have been 4-6... more desperation. Let's see how the Bills play now that they're no longer leading their division and being written off by some fans and the ever-fickle press. I would hope they get a chip on their collective shoulder. Adjustments aren't just a halftime thing... sometimes you've got to figure things out as the season goes on. This team should make the playoffs and if they get on a roll, they could make the Super Bowl. Personally, I think the team is still an offseason or two away from assuming its ultimate form... but on any given Sunday, anything can happen.

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. Why not put up a poll? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benderbender Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 What exactly looked like a playoff team to you? The field in the AFC is too tight to pencil us in as a playoff team. Best to lower expections and be pleasantly surpised if things go well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GymShorts84 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Soft in the trenches. Looks worse with Star and Brown out, but we don’t grind out wins in bad weather or respond to adversity at all really. AFC is wide open, so there’s hope but I say not with this O line. Allen forced the ball today, but I’ll still defend his play or at least his aggressive mind set. You saw the Colts line today open up lanes and give Taylor 3+ yards before we was touched. I don’t think our backs are the problem. The best argument that systems and o- lines make the running game might be made by fantasy football. When Dalvin Cook is out, everyone picks up Mattison and he delivers, San Fran has success with guys you’ve never heard of, Adrian Peterson averaged 4 YPC today. We can’t run the ball against 2 high safeties. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are the other top AFC teams that were manhandled this week? Bills had some key players injured as well. If you're scared of the ravens and a non henry titans and a chiefs team bills manhandled I don't know what to tell you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phypon Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 A nine win team at best. Not because of this loss, just the "eyeball" test. Not sure if they make the playoffs. It feels like it's time for draft position talk unfortunately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
