That's the point... We haven't been successful, because we've let up when we've started to look good. Lorenzo Alexander said it: success is the greatest adversity (paraphrasing)
That's not the point. The point is that the Bills would have more losses if they had played the opponents I listed above.
I just really don't want people to expect this game to be a cakewalk because they're 2-6.
That is a very unrealistic take. The Bills likely would have been underdogs in ALL of those games, so to go 5-1 would be crazy.
I'm really concerned about the players continually saying they're happy to be 6-2. McDermott and Frazier saying it too. I think they feel like they have breathing room. I wish they were saying, "We're looking at it like we're 0-0. 6-2 is in the past."
Once every 16 years? lol
Great players' entire careers would go by before they got a chance to play each other.
Yes, the division that makes the most sense is Buffalo, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Cincinatti.
I bet Rams/49ers will be the night game.
It'll probably be:
BUF @ NE - early
OAK @ LAC - mid-day because a West Coast game wouldn't be the early one
LAR @ SF - late
We shouldn't have to labor over this this year. Bills have some of best odds in the league and people are still freaking out talking about if-then scenarios as if we're 3-5.
I'm going to keep saying this. The Browns are not a bad team; the Bills would probably have the same record with that murderous schedule that Cleveland has played. People are in for a huge wake-up call next week.

@ Baltimore
@ San Francisco

@ New England
Do you think the Bills would be favored to beat the Rams, Ravens, 49ers, Seahawks, or Patriots?
I didn't think so.
Same record the Bills would be if we had the Browns' schedule.
Why? Is he more motivated against us for some reason? (I mean, it seems like most teams are. I'm just not sure why Mayfield would be.)
Who exactly is going to go 11-5 and keep us out of the playoffs? ?
The problem I see is that I don't think the Bills are mature enough to win four in a row. They'll get complacent and lose to one of these teams.
If we had the Browns' schedule, we would probably be 2-5... The same record that has everyone calling them a tire fire.
As much as I hate to admit it... It really is the schedule. ?
