Is it too early to talk about draft positions, easier schedule next year, and unloading some of the expensive old veterans

No it’s not unfortunately.

 

what do we save by ditching Von?  Poor guy is terrible out there, he should pull himself out.

Von is a stand-up guy and a Hall of Famer I keep on waiting for him to retire and save the bills some dollars

Von has been terrible since he came back.  Teams are running right where he would be if he wasn't getting blown 15 yards off the play

 

Bills need to unload all the old slow expensive vets and try again. The way they are playing they'll be lucky to win 2 more games this year.  This place will self immolate if we finish last in the afce

For now. They still are one game back of the division. They win last night..they would be in 1st place. 

For now ... yes ... but with our remaining schedule and the way we are playing, I don't see it happening

What are you talking about? Von leads the league in sprinting 10 yards past the QB.

The harsh reality is that Buffalo was one pass interference non call away from being 1-4 in what was supposed to be the easy part of the schedule.  That is much more than a wake up call or slump. 

 

If you break down the remaining schedules you see this

 

Tier 1 Buffalo might be the favorite-Broncos, Patriots.   Even in those cases, Denver is playing better and New England already beat us

 

Tier 2 Buffalo might beat them if they play well- Jets, Chargers

 

Tier 3 Out of our League-Chiefs, Eagles, Cowboys, Dolphins

 

Best case scenario to me is four more wins.  Worst case is one more.    The defense is depleted.  The offense under Dorsey has been figured out by the rest of the league and the morale is shot.   This is a drought era team with a good QB.

Oddly enough I think we will do well against the tier 3s above.  It's the lower caliber teams we can't handle this year.

He's not going to turn down millions of dollars.

Even my wife noticed it. "Where us #40 going? Is he trying to tackle someone behind the QB?"

He's practicing his wind sprints.

Dolphins are not out of bills league. Bills dominated them. The difference is Miami has beat the teams they should beat, bills have not

You save negative money.....he is staying.        And long term that is probably fine, he s still just 11 months out from an ACL, he is not back to where he needs to be.

Let's see how that "stand-up" status attacks up to money.  Lots of money.

BTW, the entire AFCN would be in the playoffs if they started now.

1. Technically, tie-breakers do not apply until the season is over.

 

2. Even so, the Jets will lose tonight, so the Bills will be in eighth place in the AFC, not ninth.

 

3. The Bills still control their own destiny for the AFC East title.

 

4. I expect the Bills to rebound next week vs. Denver. We are playing at home and are 4-0 in Orchard Park. Undefeated!

 

5. Remember: we were 7-6 and 6-4 at points in 2021, arguably our best year with Josh. We would have won the SB that year if not for 13 seconds.
