Justice Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 The swam is back and I'm finally ready to make my picks for this season and I know you guys wont like it. 9/11 - Houston-LOSS- Just like last year the Bills will open with a loss at home. The Texans are gonna be tough this year and the Bills Offense will not be ready yet. 9/18 - @ Tampa Bay-WIN- The Bucs are lousy and that Defense of theirs is getting old. Bills win this one in a ugly game. 9/25 - Atlanta-LOSS- Atlanta too good for Buffalo at this point. 10/2 - @ New Orleans-WIN- That makes two for two on the road. Bills strengths outweigh New Orleans in this one. 10/9 - Miami- WIN- First home win of the year. Bills now 3 & 2. 10/16 - New York Jets- WIN- Bills always take one from The Jets at home. Three game win streak now and Roscoe should be back and gives Bills "O" a boost. 10/23 - @ Oakland- LOSS- We never win out there. 10/30 - @ New England-LOSS- Do I really need to explain? Half way point and the Bills are now 4 & 4 11/13 - Kansas City-LOSS- This one I don't feel good about. I think the Bills can win but I'm not too sure. 11/20 - @ San Diego-WIN- I don't respect the Chargers and JP plays well at home. 11/27 - Carolina-LOSS- That "D" will stifle Buffalo. 5 & 6 12/4 - @ Miami-WIN- Dolphins suck. 12/11 - New England-LOSS_ The customary broom comes out, again. 12/17 - Denver-WIN- Bills bounce back and are now 7 & 7. The playoffs are still possible. 12/24 - @ Cincinnati-LOSS- It was bound to happen. Out of Playoff contention with this loss. 1/1 - @ New York Jets-LOSS- We always lose in New York.

VABills Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Stop, I said 6 wins yesterday and everyone called me gloom and doom. I didn't see us beating Denver or SD, but I do have us beating Houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyVanMiller Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Relax. Your streak of predicting the final record will end at one year. The Bills D is dominating. This team will do no worse than 9-7, and that would be a disappointment. JP will get better as the season goes on and the D and special teams will carry them until he finds a groove.

Spikes16 Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 11/20 - @ San Diego-WIN- I don't respect the Chargers and JP plays well at home. JP plays well at home??? Did I miss a season somewhere?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grabowr30045 Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 I don't see that. I see 11-5. I think the Bills win 4 of the first 5 losing to the Bucs in Tampa. (Atlanta is overrated and all they do is run and Buffalo is excellent against the run). I see them losing 1 to NE, to the Jets, the Chargers, and to the Chiefs. There is a remote possibility that the Panthers win one as well. On a side note, man the Patriots looked pretty good last night. Even though they lost a lot of key personnel, I see a 13-3 season for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt in KC Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 So, wanna bet? 7-9 or worse you win; 8-8 or better I win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB2004 Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 I'm going with 8-8. I can see some similarties from last year translating over to this year. A poor start followed by a good finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Donahoe Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 On a side note, man the Patriots looked pretty good last night. Even though they lost a lot of key personnel, I see a 13-3 season for them. That's the media spin, that they lost a ton of players. The only player that they lost who actually played a key role last year is Tedy Bruschi. Granted, that's a big loss, but it's one player. On topic, the thread starter's prediction seems reasonable. And that would be a positive season for a team with a a first-year starter at QB, I think. Think '04 Bengals (and yes, I know the Bills have a better D and ST, but the Bengals had more supporting talent on offense.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justice Posted August 28, 2005 Author Share Posted August 28, 2005 So, wanna bet? 7-9 or worse you win; 8-8 or better I win? 420449[/snapback] Sure, I'll bet. This will be one bet I hope I lose but I just dont see us being better than 7 & 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 b.harami98, you are a true visionary, and your opinion is most respected... hope you're wrong this year. You really think we'll lose to KC at home & beat SD on the road? I think, if anything, it's vice-versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not betting to make money, but am willing to lay some on the line to make it more interesting.... How about this: the loser makes a $50 donation to Hunter's Hope in the winner's name?
