I was thinking the same thing, and for what it is worth, I think that we will be better than Cleveland next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajzepp Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I was thinking the same thing, and for what it is worth, I think that we will be better than Cleveland next year. I do too, though they did make some improvements to their Dline, which was one of their major weaknesses last year. Our defense should be much better overall, though, assuming we stay healthy.

tennesseeboy Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I know a lot of people on this board don't like Peter King for some strange reason, but here is his MMQB from today http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writ...rankings/2.html I think its a pretty realistic analysis. The receiver picks, strength on the d-line with Stroud and the heavier linebackers starting (and good and experienced backups), and our new corner maybe taking on the super receivers we run across (e.g., Randy Moss), and we should realistically look at ten. Hell..I could even see us winning more than that. But I'm clearly biased in the Bills favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tortured Soul Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Hopefully he underrated us by one spot...I want to see us playing in january this year! Read the write-up on Pittsburgh at 12. He says if schedules were factored in, they'd drop a few places. That's who I think we're getting ahead of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCCEO Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Did anybody else catch this tidbit? "16. New Orleans. Now we're getting to the "if only'' area. If only the Saints had gotten Jeremy Shockey, if only Reggie Bush were a more complete NFL back, if only they had Leodis McKelvin on an island this fall instead of Jason David, Randall Gay or Aaron Glenn ... you get the picture." Seems he really likes McKelvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperBills12 Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Its nice to read these things in the off season...but I have thought the same thing about the Bills since 2004 --- time will tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCCEO Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Clearly none of this means anything. The media are generally the ones who conjure up this delusions of grandeur about our team and specific players. Remember the year we got Avion Black and they were touting him as perhaps the fastest player in the league, who would be a threat to take any kick back for 6. Well we all know how that turned out do we not? Still, its more pleasant to hear the talking heads saying good things about the Bills instead of the same old garbage.

ganesh Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Read the write-up on Pittsburgh at 12. He says if schedules were factored in, they'd drop a few places. That's who I think we're getting ahead of. Especially with the addition to the Browns (Stallworth, Rogers etc), the Browns if they continue where they left off last season, will challenge and over power the Steelers. The Steelers had major holes on their OL last season with Marvel Smith was done for the season at LT. Now he is coming back from major back surgery and who knows how he will fare. They lost their all pro guard in Alan Faneca....They fired their starting Center Mahan. They are paying 7M to their backup RT Max Starks (and we were complaining about over paying Mike Williams playing guard :-) ). And Yet they did not address the OL until the 3rd round....Big Ben bailed them out from many games with his feet, but if the line continue to deteriorate the Steelers will have a 6-10/7-9 season with games against Indy/Jax/Ten, NFC East and NE/SD. The real wild card fight is going to be between Denver, Jacksonville, Buffalo with Denver and Buffalo easily susceptible like the Steelers due to other issues (The Bills have yet to put their stamp at the QB position, and I would say the same with Denver too....Cutler has done nothing yet to prove that he is going to be their long term starter)...However both teams have very good running games.

Sisyphean Bills Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I am a big Peter King fan. Some of the other posters on this board hate him, but I am not sure why. I'm sadly surprised he didn't mention that the Bills have the best head coach in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinky finger Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I am a big Peter King fan. Some of the other posters on this board hate him, but I am not sure why. I don't like Peter King simply because he's a nasaly sounding Sox fan. Not to mention he looks like Norm's (from Cheers) gay twin. Mind you, not great reasons to dislike him, but my reasons nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 This is an interesting team. If the youth plays at a B level, the Bills could win 10 games. Go Bills, Lets make the playoffs and get some well deserved respect. And to do that they need to defeat the Pats ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
