TheBrownBear Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Reminder - every single team in the NFL has a road game at Buffalo penciled in as a projected loss. So, start from there, and then give us three road wins at Pats/Find/Jets and all we need to do is win at Chicago and Detroit. And I like us to take 2 of the 4 against Ravens/Rams/Chiefs/Bengals.

Locomark Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Yes. I think we are right at 12. 13 if injuries are key positions are at a minimum and Josh plays every game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far the betting action is moving to the "over" side of that equation. Home opponents; AFCE Packers Vikings Steelers Browns Titans Away opponents; AFCE Ravens Bengals Bears Lions Chiefs Rams If we go 5-1 in the division we should win these five games and get us to 10 wins; Steelers Browns (Brissett or Watkins is the question) Bears Vikings Lions That means we would need to win two of the following games to hit the over at 12 wins; Packers Titans Bengals Chiefs Rams Ravens If we can sweep the AFCE that gives us one more game we can lose and still hit the over of 12 wins. I would bet the over. Given the uneven play of the Bills in 2021 (see Steelers,Jaguars, Colts, and Patriots losses) I would be inclined to take the under. This is a very difficult schedule. The Bills will need to be at the top of their game every week to avoid disappointing losses. When you factor in key injuries, 12 wins seems overly optimistic.

He went for the W when a chip shot FG toes the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jacksonville game should never have been even close. The Colts blow out loss was an embarrassment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the Bills go 8-0 at home. That's a really tough thing to do. I do think they will win 12-13 games next season but they will lose a game in OP.

Point being, I think we should win 13-14 games, but it never really shakes out the exact way you expect it to.

BearNorth Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 (edited) Getting to 13 would probably require winning all 8 at Home. GB scares me a lot less since Adams is gone. It will be interesting when they schedule the Titans, I could see that being a Thursday night, and probably after a tough road game. Bengals, Chiefs, and Rams will be tough on the road. Not sure how well we match up with the Ravens, and based on last two seasons, I expect there could be one stinker loss along the lines of recent Jax or Indy games. With the parity in the league of late, anything over 12 wins probably requires some good luck on the Bills part, and/or misfortune on one of the other teams.
