CSBill Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 A fair analysis: Buffalo Bills (Over/Under 10.5): Over with 13 projected wins Buffalo won 13 games last year but outscored its opponents by a league-high 10.6 points per game. The Bills' three losses came by a combined eight points. On paper, they look just as strong. Still, the schedule's tough in a strong division.

Gregg Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 13 wins will be tough. Road games at KC, CIN, and PHIL. Then you have 4 combined games against MIA and NYJ. DAL won't be easy either. Then factor in the Bills always seem to stub their toe against a team they should beat at least once a year. I would say 10-12 wins is the floor/ceiling for the Bills. If they can win 13 or more, I would be thrilled with that given how tough the schedule is. 2 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chiefs, Eagles and Bengals are pretty much the consensus choice for the top three teams in the league, and Buffalo plays all three on their home turf. Buffalo will learn during the season whether or not it has a chance to win the Super Bowl or not. Beat one or two of those teams during the season, and we have ample reason for optimism. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsbackto81 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I'd take 11 wins going into the post season healthy, strong and with momentum than 13 wins limping, injured and shrouded in tragedy. 4 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 If Saleh only gets 1 more win with Rodgers than he did with last year's QB crew, he needs to be transferred right to the USFL. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it didn't help last year, I want any playoff game with Bengals or Chiefs in OP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The potential is there for the Bills to play many home games in bad weather especially late in the season. Yet the Bills have a team that isn't built for bad weather. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is more likely than not. He has not impressed me as a leader. I guess we will see now that QB excuse has been taken away, but implosion of the Jets at the first sign of trouble would not at all surprise me. 5 hours ago, CSBill said: A fair analysis: Buffalo Bills (Over/Under 10.5): Over with 13 projected wins Buffalo won 13 games last year but outscored its opponents by a league-high 10.6 points per game.

TheFunPolice Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I had a dream a few days ago that the Bills/Jets opener ended in a 40-40 tie. As much as a tie would not be good for the division race, that would be a heck of a game to watch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 3 parts to this: 1- what's it take to win the East? Sweeping the east for any team isn't happening. Going 2-0 against anyone but the Pats is unlikely. 3-3 in the division is comfortable to bet 2- how many wins will it take to win the East? Id guess 12 3- easier schedule? Miami. The defense can stop the pass, the front 5 are a weakness. If the offense can keep Tua alive they can easily win the East. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defense can stop the pass, the front 5 are a weakness. If the offense can keep Tua alive they can easily win the East. I doubt they can keep him healthy. Two confirmed concussions last year (CIN and GB) and he probably suffered one in the first Bills game bringing the total to 3. Then he had that hip injury at Alabama but it's the concussions that will shorten his career. If he suffers one more this year, then he would be smart to retire. It's not worth putting your health at risk especially since he is a young man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding a pair of power backs, a first round TE, an extra 1-tech, and a bear of a guard leads me to believe they recognized that as an issue. We’ll see if it works out the way everyone hopes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
