ngbills Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) 11-6 meaning we go 5-1 vs (KC, PHI, DAL, MIA, LAC, NE) still could be tough to get in. Look at other teams schedule and every loser in the AFC games has a winner. So unless they are all splits we are screwed. The issue is there are not many AFC / NFC games left and most are against bad NFC teams. HOU only has 3 road games and only tough games are JAX and CLE. They are well positioned to get to 11 wins. Loses to JAX and CLE help those teams. JAX has HOU, CIN, BAL, CLE. They win and they get to 11 wins. They lose and its helping those teams. CIN has JAX, BAL, PIT, PIT, KC, CLE - same story more wins for all teams ahead of us. BAL has CIN, LAX, MIA, PIT...same; only loss that could help is SF. CLE has PIT, JAX, CIN, HOU...same PIT has CLE, CIN, CIN, BAL...same MIA has BUF, DAL, BAL...this is our best bet. Win we in out and get to 12-5 or 11-6. They lose these three and fall to 11-6 and lose tiebreaker to us. Edited November 14, 2023 by ngbills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

par73 Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Unlike past years where it would be time to look at draft prospects, speculation is likely to center on changes at coach and GM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cray51 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I’m not as down on the Bills as most, I’d like to see a 10+ point victory, maybe something like 31-14 where the Bills get the ball to their playmakers and play a sound offensive game.

As it is can still remembering him carrying this team with Beasley and Brown. Without Diggs and with more and more influence over how plays were called with Daboll and more plays changed. I get 8t from Buffalo press internal and external Ken was a dictator. We need to get back to humble and hungry. Not hanging up Lombardi banners or posters, a torn UCL and a town shoulder ligament have hit Josh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Let's dream a bit. Let's imagine we don't just win, we win big - something like 38-13. On top of that, Allen throws for 380 yards and 4 TDs against the Jets tough defense. That would reignite my excitement for the season. I'd start to believe that Brady has got the O back on track.

beerme1 Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 I won't say I'll be surprised if we win. I'm not off on them yet but they and I are seriously wounded. Never know what happens next and there is time to recover despite the hard schedule. Replacing Dorsey could provide a spark that pushes them through the season. Or it could be meaningless and the season ended when Milano got hurt. Magic 8 ball says too early to predict. With the injuries being significant (no excuse) they certainly could flame out. With Josh, and maybe a fresh restart, they could win out. Time will tell. Every week is the biggest game of the schedule now. Jets are a great test to our mindset going forward. Their defense has crushed all the top qb's. LFG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 I’ll get excited when the Bills beat a bonafide SB contender in the playoffs. The Bills under McDermott are yet to do that - unless you count the PO win over the Ravens, but I think that’s a stretch. There are a lot of hurdles to get to that point this season so I’ll just take it one game at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we can add to our own stupidity. -Losing 4 straight Super bowls - Check! - Giving away a game in 13 seconds with stupid decisions! - Check Check!!! - Blowing a game where your OC cannot call a simple run game against a poor run defense and your head coach trots 12 people onto the game winning FG after taking a couple of timeouts to freeze the kicker! What a bunch of idiots, We need to just lose out and have a good draft next year. Dorsey is plain stupid and does not understand how to make changes, and our HC is also nothing more than a glorified defensive coordinator. TY Bills for giving me part of my life back and not waste time watching them!!! Go Sabres I agree with most of what you're saying....my Dad used to always say that the Bills are born losers, LOL...but those 2 timouts taken by McClappy at the end of the game were not to freeze the kicker. They were taken because after the defensive PI penalty was committed by Johnson, everybody in the world knew that Denver was just going to run the clock down as close to zero as possible before they kicked the GW FG. He was stopping the clock hoping they might get the ball back after the successful FG, and pull a 13 seconds on Denver. But Sean Payton outsmarted him and did not stop the clock (by spiking the ball on 3rd down), and that's when both teams had the Chinese fire drill getting their FG units on to the field. In all the confusion, the Bills ended up with 12 guys out there. Personally, if I'm McD, I would have put the defensive FG unit out on the field after their final timeout. No reason to have your Dime Pkg still out there, as Denver was not going to chance it by running a normal play, with no timouts left, and :24 on the game clock.

A split with the Chiefs/Eagles would be great. Prefer the Chiefs game for conference record purposes. It would be nice to get the Eagles game but this the one game where if they don't win it's not the end of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
