sac bills Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 It seems some fans expected a 180 degree turnaround this soon. I'm in it for the long haul. In fact, I think we're better off than a lot of franchises that are in rebuilding mode. Look at the 49ers - they're a mess. Their same ineffective QB is on his third coaching regime. And they're getting worse. At least this Bills leadership cleaned (most of the) house from what I think we can all agree was a pile of you know what. Let's not just hang on to guys for posterity's sake. Still, if by next season they're not an 8-8 team, I think the rebuilding is off track. But my point is that it's too early to judge now.
5 Wide Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Cant recall anyone saying we're sb contenders.... like no one.
miserable_fan Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Cant recall anyone saying we're sb contenders.... like no one. Ditto
Realist Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Must have missed that thread. Bills will be lucky to win 8 games this year, but even that is a start.
beerme1 Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Cant recall anyone saying we're sb contenders.... like no one. I think we have a shot.
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Cant recall anyone saying we're sb contenders.... like no one. Ditto He isn't saying that. He's saying that, according to some, Nix and Gailey should have turned the Bills into a serious contender by now.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 I think we have a shot. I think vegas has us at something like 1/1000 odds of winning the SB. So, I agree, we have a shot.
sac bills Posted August 29, 2011 Author Posted August 29, 2011 Cant recall anyone saying we're sb contenders.... like no one. I know it hasn't been written on this board. I should have made that clear - sorry. But some fans are, in my opinion, being unfair with their expectations this year. That's all I'm saying.
The Senator Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 I said it, dammit, and I'll say it again... 19 and 0 baby!!!!!
OvrOfficiousJerk Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 I think vegas has us at something like 1/1000 odds of winning the SB. So, I agree, we have a shot. ...you're telling me, there's a chance!
You herd it hear last Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Who is this "some" guy? I'd like to buy him a beer and a shot and maybe some unmentionables (but it sounds like he has PLENTY of that stuff already)
flmike Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Yup the SB is ours to lose; we seem to be good at that...
cjatcreek07 Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 ...you're telling me, there's a chance! youtube.com/watch?v=KX5jNnDMfxA So freaking funny, I was thinking about the same scene when I read this thread

But some fans are, in my opinion, being unfair with their expectations this year. That's all I'm saying. I'll give you that, i'm probably guilty of it sometimes too... but if you don't have hope, even just a little, then the season is over before it begins (unlike reality, when the season ends sometime around mid-October)

PromoTheRobot Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 I guess if you aren't slitting your wrists while hitting yourself in the head with a ball peen hammer over the upcoming season, you think we're winning a Super Bowl. PTR
Dirtbag Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Still, if by next season they're not an 8-8 team, I think the rebuilding is off track. But my point is that it's too early to judge now. does that mean you expect them to go 8-8 this season or the next?
BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 The way we are going, maybe in 2020?
