Success Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 It would be fantastic if they could shut the national media up. They did it before. After the "wind game," everyone was saying the Pats had taken the division back, and the Bills were yesterday's news. And that turned out to be our best run.

Dillenger4 Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 The Bills are definitely good enough. Let Joe cook! Our D will get a tad more healthy over the next 12 days.... We beat KC and it's on! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am thinking KC wins Dallas: in Buffalo, and Dallas isn’t as good on the road. They have a top D and a Top O in the NFL. Close game.. Thinking Dallas wins on late drive. Chargers - In Buffalo and the Chargers are a mess. Buffalo wins Patriots - In Buffalo and by this point Malik Cunningham may be Pats QB Bills Win. Dolphins - At Miami and I think Miami sits starters.. Bills win. so I see 3-2 could be 4-1 but I don’t see the Bills beating KC and Dallas. Why are you here?

billsbackto81 Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Sure. But they picked the wrong part of the schedule to need a win streak like that. Would be great to see that Miami game mean something at the end. I just know Josh would eat that opportunity alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paup 1995MVP Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 3 hours ago, Success said: I get thinking that might be the record if a fan thinks the team is falling apart - but "realistically" is not at all accurate. There is a very slim chance the team falls apart like that. We're a 6-6 team that talent-wise is on par w/ the top teams. Only about 2-3 teams are likely to win only one game the rest of the way, and those are really the dregs of the league. The problem is the defense can't hold up late in games because we have a lot of older players that look absolutely gassed at the end of games. So we play soft defense and get taken to the wood shed far too often. That being said, Josh Allen when at his best is the most dominant player in the NFL. So a 5-0 run is possible. We need Joe Brady to be scheming up some bigtime offense that suits Josh, and the Bills secondary especially our safeties really need to tighten things up. Hyde and Poyer's fall off in play this year has really been surprising. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBaumer Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 I am FULLY convinced that all this team needs to do is beats KC and they go the Super Bowl. The thing that that truly sucks is that I don't think think we are beating KC. This could go down as the most infuriating season of my life because even after the injuries, these players can STILL do it. If the defensive coaching could just get out of their own way, we very well may STILL have the best team in the NFL. If McDermott can't figure out a solid defensive plan over the 2 weeks he will have, I hope he rots on some other team next year. I honestly feel the whole rest of his career hinges on KC so for the good of him, and the best fans in the league, GET IT FREAKING DONE!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

90sBills Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 I see a lot of ‘They’re good enough…but probably won’t’ responses. A great coach once said you are what your record is. Or something like that. This year’s Bills is a .500 team after 12 weeks. So they’re not good enough to win 5 in a row. It’s fan delusion to think otherwise. What they are good enough to do…is rise up to better competition so they might upset KC after the bye. Which would be a great feel for the fanbase in what is a disappointing season. It would be the highlight of this season. Might save McD’s butt for another year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunTheBall Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 I’m a huge Bills homer and I don’t see it happening. Not with this defense, this special teams, and this head coach. I expect Andy Reid and Spags to school McD in Arrowhead after the bye and end all discussion. I think we have the better team overall but I think the coaching disparity is what will doom us.

The problem is the seam offense and I finally started to believe Brady was getting more creative as well as Josh. McD on the other hand I’ve lost faith. Too many bad decisions so I’m late to the party with McD can’t take us any farther. I’m getting there now. He was what this team needed 2017-2022. I can’t look the other way anymore when some of his decisions are maddening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToGoGo Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Lots of broken records here about the defense and HC. Our elite offense is clicking.

Don Otreply Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 It’s not about the “team” as in the players, it’s about preparation and scheming on defense & offense, the OC change has gotten us better over the last two games, the combo of HC & DC…, not so much, status quo at best, it’s about prep and scheming on “D” and game management on the HC positions, jmo.

Livinginthepast Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Team is definitely good enough to do it, even with a banged up defense.

TampaBillsJunkie Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Hard to do it when you consistently shoot yourself in the foot and the ass. This team can't play mistake free football. If they did they'd be 9-3 at worst, most likely 10-2 or better. The Bills are their own worst enemy so I think 5-0 is a pipe dream this year. Unless somehow, they actually play to their potential and talent level.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Stonada Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 We can win any game if we blow them out or Allen has the ball last. There is no team in the NFL we can’t beat. But to win close ones we need someone who can call defensive plays better, use timeouts better, motivate the guys better and get them to focus better, than McD.

bklnpete Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) They go 5-0 and storm into the playoffs, only to lose in the most heartbreakingly dramatic fashion ever to be witnessed in all of sports history.

RG Murdock Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 The Bills are 6-6 on merit. They have no chance of winning out... None... They end up 8-9, and we'll be watching dreck like the Colts, Steelers and Browns with 2nd string, or worse QB's in the playoff's, while we had a healthy Josh and offense and blew another year. Even when Milano comes back, he'll miss at least 5 games anyway.. He always does. 2021 was our shot... And blew it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Governor Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I honestly think we might lose out. The team will be so embarrassed after being eliminated that I just don’t see any of them starting the last few games. You definitely sit Josh. Use the last few games for evaluation and get ready for the fire sale. How does McD and Beane fit into that? I don’t know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 The offense seems to be back on track. But we need more than a 2-game Brady sample to know for sure. The defense, with all the key injuries, really struggles at times. It's still a good team, but not good enough to win out against this schedule.

Even Elam will be available if you want it. So healthy as you've been since London. But longest win streak of the year is 3 games, and now you have to beat @ Chiefs and Cowboys in back to back weeks, and assume that the Dolphins have the division locked up in Week 18, do they rest and allow the Bills to get into the Playoffs? I do think the Patriots are a guaranteed win, but if the Chargers aren't bad enough where I'd be 100% confident in that game even though it will be a defacto home game by then. Dolphins will not play their back ups unless they have the number one seed in their pockets after week 17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsatlastin2018 Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Me. Under McClapper, the Bills tend to absolutely fold to comparable or superior (KC) teams. This year, he has ***** the bed against clown show teams with QBs you wouldn’t pick for your Sunday Beer League! He’s a loser and there is no chance the Bills will go 5-0!
