If Allen stays healthy, will Bills win 11 in a row?

We are 2nd in the NFL in points scored and 1st in the NFL(tied) for least points allowed. Once again leading the NFL in net points by a large margin, almost double the next closest team.

 

#1 in yards on offense by a large margin, #2 on yards on defense(thanks to soft coverage)

 

Context over the course of the season compared to every other team in the NFL matters too.

 

We haven't even played a top 15 defense yet, we will against KC. The closest was the Dolphins. I still think we're good, just think we should pump the brakes on running the table talk after KC. You should use more range in your context.

Part of the reason why we haven't is because they have played us.

 

But I know...other teams always have played the top ranked D in the NFL every week, they never play teams with any injuries, and their D has played the top ranked O every week right?

 

The Bills have a 3 year run of greatness that has been on par with some of the greatest team runs in NFL history...all they are missing is a SB now.

 

3 years long enough for you?

That's your opinion. The reality is 3 of the defenses we've won against rank in the bottom 5. The toughest we will have faced will be against KC. What's your score prediction btw? 

 

If the Bills have Poyer and Edmunds back, I like our chances.  Bills 31 Chiefs 27

If they don't, I think the Chiefs may have the edge at home.  Chiefs 34 Bills 31  

 

However, I could easily see the score similar to last year as well where the Bills won 38-20...Bills can be that good.  I don't see a game where the Chiefs win by more than one score.

This team does not seem likely to lay an egg. Not with the "Don't Blink" mentality and new killer instinct.

 

The Miami game is going to be seen more and more for the fluke that it was -- crazy events converging.

 

After KC, the Bills will be heavy favorites in every game. If Allen stays healthy, when do they lose? Are we about to watch an 11-game winning streak (13 if we beat KC)?

 

15-2 or 16-1 is just sitting there for this team.

 

vs. Packers (SNF after the bye)

@ Jets

vs. Vikings

vs. Browns

@ Lions (Thanksgiving)

@ Patriots (TNF)

vs. Jets

vs. Dolphins

@ Bears

@ Bengals (MNF) -- maybe the toughest game, but I think it's a great matchup and we have primetime Josh

vs. Patriots -- Josh could rest if #1 seed locked up

 

If ANY of these games were this week, everyone would be picking the Bills. That's not likely to change as long as Allen stays healthy.

It's a long season.

I don’t consider the Miami loss as laying an egg. Laying an egg is how we lost to JAX last year. The Miami loss is as good of a loss as can be possible. If not for the heat exhaustion, Josh hits McKenzie for a td and we win. 

How do you explain almost losing to Baltimore then?  My point is that we are likely to come up against some other challenge in the last 11 games of the season and lose.  Are you thinking we win out after Green Bay?

Any Given Sunday and all that. It’s hard to expect any team to go on a 10+ game run. We definitely will come up against some other challenges, I just didn’t consider the Miami loss as laying an egg, that’s a total over exaggeration.

 

Even though Baltimore was a challenge, we overcome two big time early turnovers that cost points, and we shut them out the second half. Good teams overcome struggles, and we did. Not every game is going to be perfect, especially against good teams, and Baltimore is a good team.

I think this schedule is not as easy as you may think it is.

Packers and Rodgers can lite it up any time

Vikings are playing solid football

The first 7 games on the schedule looked challenging. I still expect 1 more loss ,either to KC or GB, to be at 5-2. My preference is for the Bills to beat KC for the playoff implications. I want home field advantage!

After that,pray for the injuries to stop and  Beane to work some trade magic.

Says the guy who thinks Zach Moss deserves more carries after 3 years. 🙄

 

Let's take it one week at a time like the coaches preach and pump the brakes. 3 of our wins have come from defenses ranked in the bottom five. Our first real test is this upcoming week against KC.

It's amazing how quickly our fanbase has deteriorated into creating threads of this type.

 

And we all thought the fans up in New England were jaded/spoiled.

 

Who cares if we go 11-0?  

 

I care about one statistic ONLY---winning a SB before I die.

 

One is enough.

 

After that, who cares.

I would be shocked if they lose to GB at home after the bye.  GB is just so....average at best.
