Drew21PA Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 They are at a crossroads i haven’t seen them turn that corner to “oh boy this is the real deal” maybe they had it against the giants but I’d like to see them really punch the next couple oppentns in the mouth and be progressing in the right direction no more McDermott era let downs use to see it with the pats all the time then they made a run to the superbowl after starts like we are having would like to see that desire and fight from our bills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Recency bias is extra heavy in the NFL. The Bills are coming off the Jags loss and what is arguably the ugliest win in NFL history against a really bad and depleted team. If the Bills blow out the Pats and get things going offensively fans will calm down for a week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnycage46 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 What a stupid thread. Nobody was unhappy with 4-2. They were unhappy with how crappy the team looked the last two weeks. Now three weeks. This team is not going to suddenly just wake up and get better. There is something fundamentally wrong with the team and I don't know what it is, but it's bad. So, update the stupid thread title to "4-3", then be prepared to keep adding to that loss column. 3 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBF81 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 (edited) Also, two of our wins have been against two of the worst teams in the league, one barely. We could very easily have been and probably should have been 3-4 right now. But so have two of our losses been against two of the worst teams in the league.

BillsPride12 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) I would assume people are more unhappy about the 5-4 Bills right now than they were with the 4-2 Bills Edited November 6, 2023 by BillsPride12 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnycage46 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 I think the people who were possibly unhappy at 4-2 are just as unhappy at 5-4 due to the shortcomings that were hinted at while sitting at 4-2 (slow starts on O, disappearing O for most of the game, poor coaching, poor gameplanning, etc.). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offense but your post is ridiculous. DVOA only means so much. Why not look at this stat. IMO successful drive percentage means more than DVOA or most other analytical stat. Those 3 blowout wins versus Vegas, Washington and Miami inflate those numbers. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBonhamRocks Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 I think the Bills have some real problems.

nedboy7 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I have zero issue with being positive about the team and rooting for the players on it. At the time this thread was started I was way more optimistic than I am now. So I dont see what the problem with the OP is. I got a way bigger problem with so called fans calling every player trash during 2nd Q. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you list the current Bills starters, factoring in the injuries, on both sides of the ball, I don’t actually think you’d see “above average talent”. They have a top end QB, but the rest of the team is decidedly average right now, IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
