GG Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 Such is life in the NFL nowadays. At first I didn't see the subhead to the title, and thought Rubeo has lost his marbles. Yup. I'll take 4-2 with most bounces going Bills' way so far.
zow2 Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 When you break it all down...look at the fortunate turnovers we've gotten, some favorable calls our way, some bad calls, sieve defense, injuries, etc.. The Bills are 4-2 and that's about exactly where they should be. It's a cliche "you are what the record says you are"...but it's true.
mead107 Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 Such is life in the NFL nowadays. I thought it was a good call. Go for the jugular and put the game away. I am very happy with 4 - 2. Most Bills fans thought we would be 1 and 5.
RevWarRifleman Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 Yeah, Rubio, we could be 1-5, or any other combination thereof. But we're 4-2 because of good play, mostly at key times in the game. And that's what good teams do.
r00tabaga Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 (edited) We lost to two 4-2 teams on the road on last minute FGs. Not bad. Not too bad. And we beat a 4-2 team, a 5-1 team, a Dream Team & a 2010 division winner at their park. I'll take 4-2 at the bye week with a reeling Redskins club up next. We have to have the toughest schedule so far AND we are still 2 plays away from 6-0! Edited October 17, 2011 by r00tabaga
BuffaloBaumer Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 Donald Jones does not knock down that Ball against the Raiders and the interference call on the Pats to give the Bills the ball at the one......you win some you lose some. 4-2 is just about right at the break. Get healthy, beat the Skins and 5-2 sounds VERY nice.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted October 17, 2011 Author Posted October 17, 2011 Yep I'm OK with 4-2. Clean up the errors and get healthy. Yesterday we were down to LT #3, LG #2, LBs 5 thru 7, same with WRs.
shibuya Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 (edited) The FACT is the Bills are a 7-9 to a 9-7 team.. They may make the playoffs, but our lack of a Pass rush bend don't break D guarantees we won't go much further. We are a better improved team from a year ago, and that is all any of us hoped for when the season started Edited October 17, 2011 by shibuya

To quote you from another thread, I guarantee this.
BillsFanM.D. Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 I thought it was a good call. Go for the jugular and put the game away. I am very happy with 4 - 2. Most Bills fans thought we would be 1 and 5. It was a good call...just poorly executed. There was a playoff game in the early 90's with the niners and cowboys. The cowboys were deep in their own territory with a four point lead and everyone expected them to pound the ball and milk out the clock by getting a first down or two....or punt it away with minimal time on the clock. The "hair man" went for the throat and the result was a 70+ yard post to Alvin Harper. I always remember that game when folks question these type of calls. JJ is a genius...but Chan is a dope? It was a great call and had Fitz thrown a respectable ball it is either incomplete or game over. Sadly....he did not.
