LabattBlue Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Before the season started, it appeared that KC would have a tougher road to the AFC West, than BUF and the AFC East. Fast forward 8 weeks, and it now appears to be the opposite as the Raiders are a trainwreck, the Chargers injury riddled, and the Broncos have a guy at QB who appears to be a shell of his former self.

That's No Moon Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 The Bills need to avoid the midseason malaise they fell into last year around this time. It doesn't matter what the schedule says on paper. Anyone can lose to anyone every single week. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I don't think the Bills are going to lose another division game, so I can't really say ours is harder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBear Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I think the Dolphins and Pats are currently better than anything KC will face in their division. Though I think the potential is still there for the other three AFC West teams to figure it out a bit and get things going. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Bills have a much tougher remaining strength of schedule than KC.

The Bills have an insanely easy schedule the rest of the way. It's skewed because a team that is complete garbage that we play twice is somehow 5-3 (Jets), and two teams that are basically our b**** that we play 3 times have decent records (Dolphins, Pats). If the bills stay healthy and don't get in their own way they are going 14-3 at worst. 2 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on to New Jersey So this is based on the record of the teams in the league right now which isn't the way to really look at this. You need to project out the true talent of the remaining teams on the schedule and not what they've done in fluky wins or losses. Based ROS projections I have the Bills facing the 18th hardest schedule (.498 average remaining Win%) going forward and the Chiefs the 21st (.491). Both teams, barring resting starters in week 18 or an injury to either QB, will be pretty heavy favorites in every game the rest of the season.

That garbage team is simply better than Vegas, Denver or LA Chargers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Joe Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 The other AFC west teams are much weaker than we expected… Chiefs look like they can sleepwalk through the division… But as someone said above… the Bills should take care of business as well against their division rivals… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I would say Bills for sure considering we still have Jets x 2, Pats x 2 and Miami one more time. Probably not going 5-0 in these games. The only real challenge the Chiefs might have with their division is the game @ the chargers but still don't see them losing more than a game or 2 max the rest of the way given their overall schedule left which is why it's imperative Bills keep pace and take care of teams they should beat the rest of the way.

Yobogoya! Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 The East is tougher than the West this year and I don't think it's particularly close. The Bills have shown a greater propensity for mistakes this year than the Chiefs as well. And when you're talking about a weaker team upsetting an elite team, that's what's probably going to cause it: self-inflicted wounds. Bills have to start cleaning up the mistakes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruffalo Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 It probably depends how much you believe in the Jets. If you think they're kind of frauds (I do) then it's fairly equal I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st pete gogolak Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 The Chiefs easily could have (should have?) already lost to both the Chargers and the Raiders at home this season. I don't think any of their remaining divisional games will be walkovers. After watching Jets - Pats yesterday, I'd rather play Wilson, Jones and Tua than Herbert, Carr and Wilson. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the bills stay healthy and don't get in their own way they are going 14-3 at worst. I just posted in another thread, then saw this one and it’s probably more appropriate here. But I don’t think the Bills’ division wins are all given as easy wins. They should win, yes. But the Jets and Dolphins are playing pretty solid football. For me, at least, those 5 games might be the hardest left on our schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure sounds logical. But anybody in this forum may be able to coach the raiders to 2 wins. Josh Mcdontmakemeahead coach hasn't. KC holds a coaching mismatch edge every game.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 The SoS 7 weeks in ? They are who they thought they are? is that it? The Jets — are a true contender? The Giants? On any given Sunday any team can win. Be like the team you deal with the games one week at a time and ignore the noise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 We're getting break with the Jets playing them without Breece Hall and their stud O-lineman. The Pats can't score all that well, but they are pesky,,,and we have Miami at home. KC still has to play on the road at all 3 of their rivals... and you know hosting the Chiefs will be the Chargers, Raiders and Broncos Super Bowl. So those games won't be cakewalks for KC.
