Saint Doug Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Don't worry, we're still getting no respect. Notice how they place us in the rear of all the other 5-1 teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your point is well taken, so is Kas's point that we are the lowest rated 5-1 team. That needed to sink in a bit. I'm going to go even further; how much do you think they were really tempted to put one of the 2 loss teams ahead of us but just couldn't? Um, are we going to get a boast in cred considering that the Rams haven't loss since playing us? How about the fact that we have now beaten 3 playoff teams from last year, lost our only game to a good Cards team, and beat the Chargers by a larger amount than all their other losses combined (i think - OK, just checked, close to it 10 points combined, 9 in the Bills game)?

GripnRip Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I like how AFTER we beat the chargers everyone screams at people for not calling us contenders BEFORE....I mean wtf is wrong with you? You blame sports writers for not being able to predict the outcome of a pick 'em game and subsequently what it means for both teams. The Bills GOT BLOWN OUT and you just assume everyone KNOWS the Bills will beat the Chargers. If we lost that game, "they" would've been right and you'd have to wait another week or so to post your stupid complaint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poeticlaw Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Don't worry, we're still getting no respect. Notice how they place us in the rear of all the other 5-1 teams. Have you noticed That Tenn is 5-0 in the AFC, Pitt Is 5-0 in the AFC, NYG is 4-0 in the NFC and BUF is 3-0 in the AFC I think we are in the right place of the pecking order for now! Lets see how the next three crucial divisional games go since the other teams are 2-0,3-0 and 1-0 in there division respectively. We have not played a divisional game yet to deserve a higher ranking. Heck since we are always in the bottom 20 in the power rankings be happy we are in the top 5 who knows how long it could last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
