Got 2 Billieve Posted May 4 Posted May 4 Home Miami Dolphins - W (As usual) New England Patriots - W (Giving this a split) New York Jets - W (As usual) Kansas City Chiefs - L (Finally beat us in regular season too) Los Angeles Chargers - W (most overrated QB in NFL) Chicago Bears - W - (Tough Game but fans are the difference) Detroit Lions - L (They are solid and its a coinflip). Baltimore Ravens - L (Revenge game for the last few?)

Goin Breakdown Posted May 4 Posted May 4 My defense mechanism says we'll lose them all except for the 17 weeks we play. Sorry to be a downer. 1 Quote
Warriorspikes51 Posted May 4 Posted May 4 (edited) We won't beat Houston. Early prediction I'd say 12-5 Edited May 4 by Warriorspikes51 Quote
sven233 Posted May 4 Posted May 4 (edited) I think we'll see something like 13-4, 12-5. However, I would actually like to see what this team looks like on defense before settling on a number. Because if their defense is substantially better at taking the ball away and limiting points, and the offense is still capable of putting up 30+ per game, I reserve the right to change my outlook. If Allen is healthy, I believe him alone gives you a baseline of 10 wins. So, it's the other things on the team that will account for the additional wins. Those that have followed my takes and breakdowns on here for years know I have been very critical of McDermott's outdated scheme. For years now I have been saying that his defense is built for the regular season and playing a bunch of average QBs. It was good enough to win games against the average teams with average QBs, but was ultimately going to fail in the Playoffs against QBs that knew what they were doing and had more talent around them. And sure enough, that led to giving up 33 points on average in elimination games. I expect this defense is going to look a lot different. If I am right, they are going to play with a lot of shifts and movements in order to create chaos. I think it is going to be an attacking scheme that forces the offense to react to what they are doing and not a sit back, wait and see what the offense is doing and then trying to take that away. This defense isn't going to play with that type of patience. They are going to play with urgency and aggression instead and while I think they may give up the explosive plays once in a while, I think we are going to see more sacks and turnovers as well. And when you have the best QB in the world in Allen on the other side of the ball, and you maybe give him an extra couple of possessions per game, well, it's going to be hard for opposing offenses to keep up. So, being the first year in a new defense, there might be some growing pains as we find out which positions are going to need upgrading in the new scheme, I will account for a couple of weird losses. But, if we see them play, and everyone does seem to fit, the sky and the potential record is as high as you want to make it. I think we will know fairly quickly, too. Edited May 4 by sven233 2 Quote
SoonerBillsFan Posted May 4 Posted May 4 13-4 or 14-3. Houston is the only problem I see. They beat us in their house and they added more to that ridiculous DL. 1 Quote
Gregg Posted May 4 Posted May 4 If Leonhard can put together a good defense and Brady shows he has what it takes in being a good HC with managing the game (timeouts, challenges, in game adjustments, etc ) then I will say the floor is 11-6 with the ceiling being 13-4. If Brady struggles adjusting to being the HC and Leonhard is struggling with the defense than we may be in for a rough year. The schedule is pretty tough. Quote
13 Seconds to Mars Posted May 4 Posted May 4 People think this is going to be a down year and I highly disagree. I feel like one of the main reasons they hired Brady because they knew the transition would be smoother. Biggest reason is the change in defense. People point to this as why the Bills won’t compete for a SB. You can’t really go in any direction, but upwards when you are allowing 30 something points in the postseason. My hunch is… 12-5 with a SB loss next year will be ours 2 Quote
EssexBill Posted May 4 Posted May 4 (edited) God dammit, why do we have to play Houston away again, can’t they get on a plane and come to Buffalo for once?? I think 13-4 with a last game loss as we sit the starters, on paper is looks tough but I see us going 6-0 in the division and the lions and chiefs will struggle (especially the chiefs if they’re still playing old man Kelce and Mahomes wont be the same right away after that injury) and the ravens and packers dont scare me either Edited May 4 by EssexBill 2 Quote
BuffaloBillyG Posted May 4 Posted May 4 I see us winning between 0 and 20 games next year. I also see them losing between 0-20 games next year. I bet I'm correct. 2 1 Quote
Your Brown Eye Posted May 4 Posted May 4 We go 20-0 if Pinto Ron switches to dijon mustard on gamedays 1 Quote
AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted May 4 Posted May 4 Hope springs eternal in the off season … the offense should be fine but I think the defense will definitely have growing pains through the first half of the season. I’ll go 10-6. Flame away you eternal optimists. 🤪 Quote
Kelly No huddle Posted May 4 Posted May 4 (edited) 14-3. #1 seed. I think the offense will be unstoppable. Buffalo over Cincinnati 49ers over Eagles Superbowl- Buffalo over 49ers Bills 44 49ers 24 Edited May 4 by Kelly No huddle 6 Quote

I can see a win in all of these games but trying not to be too biased. Will revisit after schedule drops. KC won’t likely even have Mahomes back yet, and their OL still sucks. Easy win especially at home. I can’t see us losing 2 in a row at home against Det and Balt. I actually think we will go undefeated at home this year. So there is 3 more wins. Road - we will beat GB but I will flip the Houston to a L as our offense has been shutdown hard the last 2 games against that defense. So I have us 14-3, 1 seed, and SB Champs 1 1 Quote

DeepPass Posted May 5 Posted May 5 I don't see this team as focused as they were before the coaching change. A lot of players owe their NFL careers and resulting wealth to McD. 1 Quote
