Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 We need a watershed moment, and maybe this game is it. I'm always reminded of a single play that I think was the watershed moment for the 90s Bills--the blocked FG and Bennett return for a TD against Denver. I thought at the time, and I always recalled after the fact, that that was such a defining turning point for the Bills. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-1-yTNAgak
Mr. WEO Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 The whole 5-1 thing in 2008 is completely different. Our leader was soft and tentative Trent and we had a horrible coach. This team is nothing like that one. I don't recall anyone saying that the QB was soft and the coaches were horrible when the Bills hit 5-1.
Rubes Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 This. If the Bills beat the Pats then they are a lot better than I thought they were. If we lose, can we say "We are who we thought we were!" ??
GOBILLS78 Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 I wouldn't be so sure that 10-6 guarantees a playoff spot. Thank you. Considering a few years ago the Patriots won 11 games and missed the playoffs. We need a watershed moment, and maybe this game is it. I'm always reminded of a single play that I think was the watershed moment for the 90s Bills--the blocked FG and Bennett return for a TD against Denver.

ricojes Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 After the Bills win this week, it will be a huge step in the right direction, but they still will have a lot of work to do. I would not proclaim them playoff bound. But I would say, if the Bills go 4-2 in the division or better, they make the playoffs. Split with the Patsies, Jests, and sweep the fish! If they can do that, it will be one fun season. GO BILLS!!!!
BobbyC81 Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 Let's not just pull 7-6 from the ether, okay? Let's look at the 13 games we'll have left and see if we can reasonably count 7 wins: CIN(1) PHI NYG(2) WAS(3) NYJ DAL(4) MIA(5) NYJ TEN SD MIA(6) DEN(7) NE Good chance of a win vs Tenn at home also
