GreggTX Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) The Bills are certainly the class of the AFCE, but Miami gave us our only loss and the Jests are no joke.

How do you see this division shaping up for the future? Are those solid rosters? Will these young QB's be great? Which other AFCE team will be our greatest challenge?

Rc2catch Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I like the Jets build better than Miami especially in the long term. I don’t think New England is on either teams level. But it’ll all come down to quarterback health and development more than likely. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalo2218 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Too small of a sample size for the Jets up to this point. Pats will inevitably end up where they started at the end of the year. The Dolphins gave us our only loss true, but Tua won't last the whole season if he's that fragile, and with how bad their O line is in pass blocking, it's only a matter of time. I really can't see the Bills dropping anymore games from here on as long as they stay focused. And they'll be blowing more teams out, building even more confidence. Miami called down the thunder beating us, they won't have extreme heat on their side when they come here tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) Bryce Hall is a beast at RB. Still no great QBs in the division besidesAllen, so not too worried. Mia still has the best offense but a bit of a suspect defense. Edited October 17, 2022 by RyanC883 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

folz Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 The Jets are tied with Kansas City for second best record in the conference. Let me repeat that... The Jets are tied with Kansas City for second best record in the conference. What kind of crazy world are we living in? Our division is shaping up to be much more difficult than any of us probably imagined. But the Bills are still, by far, the best team in the division. They just need to take care of business in the AFC East and not let these upstarts get any delusions of grandeur. It just might not be quite as easy as we thought it would be when the season started. A few more weeks should let us know if our division foes are for real or not. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubba Gump Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Not very good other than Buffalo. The other three teams are still not very impressive. None of them are nearly as deep as the Bills. The Eagles are 6-0 and maybe the least scary 6-0 team ever. I would love to play them in the SB. Jalen Hurts is not a very good QB. He is the Lamar Jackson of the NFC. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyDays Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 It doesn't matter. There's the Bills and Chiefs and Eagles, and then everyone else. The other teams can beat one of us when we have an off day. The Jets beating the Packers is a nice little story for them but they're still playing a different sport compared to us. If Zack Wilson ever starts playing at an elite level then we can add them to the conversation. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACTOBILLSFAN Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 If the Jets can block multiple kicks per game and win with 278 yards of offense, sure, they’re a problem. The defense is good but they have a joke of a QB. Whatever is in that New Jersey water is helping both mediocre teams win football games.

Greg S Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I guess we are all Broncos fans next Sunday when they play the Jets. If the Jets beat Denver and NE and the Bills beat GB at home in two weeks then you will have 6-1 Buffalo vs 6-2 Jets at MetLife. Any Bills fans planning on going to that game get your tickets now. Prices have been going up for that game and will continue to do so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When GB made it 17-10 on the next drive Wilson went 2 for 2 for 30 yards and then Hall scored. He isn't playing like franchise QB but then again neither was Josh in year 2. He isn't turning the ball over like he did last year. With their run game (Hall is looking like a great pick for them unfortunately) and defense they are winning games.

The Bills started to shake their losing ways and started to build a winning culture when McBeane took over. The Jets appear to be at that point now. They had a good draft. They have good WR's, good RB's and a good defense. Wilson is the big ? for them JD is doing for them what Beane has done for us. The Bills should sweep them but they will not be easy games.

mjt328 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Every season, there are multiple "surprise" teams after the first 5-6 games. Things will start settling over the next month. The Jets are overachieving a little. But honestly, I don't think anything in the AFC East has been totally shocking so far. The Dolphins have been a 9-10 win team each of the last few years. Everyone should have expected them to be competitive and in the Wild Card hunt. And everyone should have expected them to struggle with their 2nd/3rd string QB under center. The Patriots roster lacks talent, but they know how to keep games close and scrape out more wins than they deserve. Reminds me of us with Dick Jauron. They looked like a .500 team that would need to rely on the defense and run game. They will win maybe 7-8 and fall short of the playoffs. The Jets have tons of young talent. Lots of people figured they could win 6-8 games this season. I still don't see it with Zach Wilson, and think they will drop back to Earth in the coming weeks.

TFBillsfan Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 AFCE is trending up compared to the start of the season. Jets have put together a good young nucleus. Pats will always be competitive under BB. MIA has improved. At the end of the day it starts with the QB. If the Bills put up points early on these teams, it puts even more pressure on their QB’s. Our QB>AFCE QB’s. Bills need to play their game and to our strengths! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I just heard that teams that play in London have a choice the following week. They can accept their bye or they can choose the opponent they want to play. GB refused their bye and choose to play the Jets. Probably thought it would be an easy win at Lambeau. Sucks for them.

C.Biscuit97 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I still think they all suck but they are improving. Zach Wilson still has a lot to prove because he is giving Sanchez vibes. And I fear NE a lot more without Mac, who is the definition of just a JAg. but the talent certainly has increased (the Pats are the least talented). We are still far and away superior but if one of this qbs are good, it will get really tough in the next couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I have a serious problem with the NFL allowing stupid things like the Dolphins stadium to have visitors in the sun while their sideline is in the shade. Yesterday they showed a side-by-side of temps on each sideline during the game and the Dolphins were at like 85 and the visitors were 115. That's not some gamesmanship, it's a threat to player health and it's BS. We had multiple people leave that game with heatstroke. Competitive advantage should mean that both teams have to deal with the same issue (i.e. snow) but one team is better equipped to deal with that element. Cooking the other team is ridiculous.

Success Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 The other 3 teams are kind of 2a, 2b, and 2c. Any one of them could make the playoffs, but there is a big gap between all of them and us. It's weird, but I think the Jets stand the best chance of emerging from that pack and challenging us in the future. Saleh is a good coach, and you can see the change in culture watching their games. The energy is completely different from previous years. If Wilson develops, they'll be a problem. Honestly, the only reason the Pats are good is because they still have Belichick. Watching Zappe play exactly like Jones is a real tribute to his system, and he always gets the best out of his defenses. They have some standout players, but they're really built like the Bills were about 15 years ago. If Belichick coached one of those teams, they'd win more games too.
