This is not shocking. The Bills have hit 11-6 or better since 2020. An 11-6 record is roughly equal to an NBA team winning 53 games which is the lowest Bills record. 

 

Since 2020 if translated to an NBA season the Bills would have won the following win totals. 
 

  • 2020- 67-15 
  • 2021- 53-29
  • 2022- 67-15
  • 2023- 53-29
  • 2024- 62-20
  • 2025- 58-24

That's 80's Bird and Magic teams, 90's Jordan, 90's Utah Jazz, 00's Spurs, 2010's Warriors levels of success. Given the rapid parity that is being brought into the NBA and what parity and variance has always existed in the NHL and NFL it isn't surprising to see that the Bills are at the top with that kind of record. The only team I thought would have rivaled the Bills in this time period would have been the LA Dodgers who are exerting an insane fiscal advantage in the MLB a sport whose been trying to have more parity in recent years.

Without a championship the only similar team out of the ones you cited is the 90s Jazz. That’s not a good thing.

That's my team.  They were close with John Wall and Brad Beal but both ended up getting injured.  They have been trying to tank the last three years for some reason

My sympathies!

This represents a lot of good weeks in my sports life. 

 

When they win everything is better for that week, the food even tastes better.

 

Hopefully this continues.

You know you would’ve thought by reading this board we were absolutely horrible.  I guess not.  We've literally been one of the winningest franchises in sports.  That’s why some of us get annoyed.  I’ll continue to contend people have short memories.

 

I hated being a joke for 17 years.  I’m so happy for my Sabres family and friends who are seeing that change.  My 95 yr. Old dad is on cloud nine.  So is my sister who's worked for the Sabres for 25 years.

 

Im starting to come around that Brady may actually be a nice fit for this team.  One can hope Leonard can also be a big lift.  It would be nice to see the legacy move forward of a winning culture.

 

For what it is worth I watched the Elway doc on Netflix and there were many parallels with Brady to Shanny and the situation right down to a good coach who was burned out and needed to go. I hope it is the same ending

Having watched a bit of the replay of the  Jaguars playoff win on NFLN last night I was honestly shocked to be reminded that the Bills hadn’t won a road playoff game throughout ANY of this run of winning percentage. That’s incredible. While we’ve all enjoyed the winning more than the mediocrity of the drought decade it’s way, way past time for this team to show up in the playoffs.

Go Bills

And Beane. And Pegula for hiring Beane.

It's like you're forgetting one person.... 

 

Who was here before Brandon Beane

 

Pinning all the faults on one guy and removing all the successes is not really objective
