....lybob Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Generally in the past I've been the wet blanket on irrational Bills exuberance predicting mediocre win/loss performance and usually pretty accurate in doing so. It's early (official predictions made after the last preseason game) but I predict the Bills going 11-5 and beating out the Pats in a tie breaker. I think most of the reasons are well known 1. A much better pass rush 2. A secondary with very good ball skills- in combination with the pass rush I expect interceptions galore 3. Threat of the deep ball keeping defenses honest- last year when teams moved their defenses up to make it hard for our great grinders (Johnson, Jackson, Chandler) we didn't have the speed to make them pay a price- This year with Jones, Easley, Graham, Dickerson and Onobun the speed is back and defenses will have to think twice about crowding the line. 4. Overall depth -best depth I've seen on a Bills team since the glory days 5. Still better than average special teams Well that's my take and if you know me you know I'm not the Senator predicting "19-0 baby" every year.
