Dorkington Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 4-12 is my expectation. Hopefully they don't disappoint me.
It's in My Blood Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 Hey, what the hell, its Tuesday. I've bought back in. Go Bills!
nucci Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 Sunday was awful, but lets be honest.. Did anyone really expect them to go into San Fran and win? So far we've lost to two very good teams and one average team. Granted all of those loses were just plain terrible. Either way, the rest of the season starts today: @Arizona Tennessee @Houston @New England Miami @Indianapolis Jacksonville St. Louis Seattle (Toronto) @Miami New York Jets We play two teams that we will likely lose too. Every other game on that schedule is winnable. We need to go into Arizona with a new sense of urgency and get above .500 before we go to Houston. I know our team has looked absolutely terrible but look at the bright side.. they cant play any worse. Not time to panic but definitely time to be pissed after the off-season expectations.
Billsrhody Posted October 9, 2012 Author Posted October 9, 2012 When exactly is the time to panic? If they lose the next two... I will start to panic and immediately go into "high draft pick" mode
thewildrabbit Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 all I can say is... have you been watching the games? I look at the schedule and see 2 possible wins against the Titans and Jags.....maybe! The Dolphins just beat the Bengals in Cincy. The Colts just beat Green Bay. The Rams just beat Arizona who is 4-1 Get a grip on reality willyas! The Bills have they very worst defense in the history of the franchise! 600+ offensive yards to the ground and pound 49ers,they set an NFL first record. 1st team to give up 300 yards rushing AND 300 yards passing in a game. P.S. A lot of those games would be winnable if the GM / owner fired the HC and DC today. I could see 8 wins with a better coaching staff

P.S. A lot of those games would be winnable if the GM / owner fired the HC and DC today. I could see 8 wins with a better coaching staff There is no way our defense is as bad as the defense we've seen on the field in the past two games. It just isn't possible to be that bad for a whole season. They will get better. I am anything but a Fitz supporter, but even he is not as bad as he's played in the last two games. He has been horribly inconsistent on his throws and has been a turnover machine. He will get better. The coaching has been absolutely abysmal on the defensive side of the ball. I'm not sure if this will get better, but it cant get any worse. Kolb Locker/Hasselbeck Schaub Brady Tannehill Luck Gabbert Bradford Wilson/Flynn Tannehill Sanchez Who scares you so much that you only think they'll win two more games?

Fitz is 3-11 his last 14 starts. I see no reason to believe in improvement.
HamSandwhich Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 Let's wait and see....really? It seems to me that wait and see is the plan put in place by OBD at this point. This just in: Wait and see rarely leads to positive outcomes. Reasoned action is better than reaction any time. What would you like me to do? Coach the team? Ralph hasn't asked me yet, so that's out of the question. Oh maybe I can just give up on this team that's securely in the hunt at the moment only 5 games in. Let me repeat that for you pessimists, 5 GAMES IN! Come talk to me in about 8 more week. Maybe by then you or I will have come around, but cmon, waaaaaaay too early. Go Bills!!! Fitz is 3-11 his last 14 starts. I see no reason to believe in improvement. Oh so rosy outlook you must have on life. Oh, were you going to call yourself a realist? Well lets get real, its 5 games in!!! Go Bills!!!

I could see 8 wins with a better coaching staff So, by firing the HC (which is also the OC), and the DC now and picking up whoever they can get to take the interim positions (probably internal) you expect to get 6 MORE wins than keeping the current guys in place?

Crazy isnt it? I've only been on this board for about 2 hours, but I can see there are some thinkers here! Haha There's no way you fire the coaching staff in the middle of the year like "Fear the beard" suggests and not suffer some kind of growing pains due to the lack of continuity. Rediculous!
Metal Man Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 Come on doubters, how can you give up so soon? We waited all summer for the season to get here and now after some terrible losses people are ready to get to the draft after only 5 games? I am as disappointed as anyone, especially after the high expectations that came with the off season moves, but with still almost 3/4 of the season to go I can't possibly justify pulling the plug and looking forward to it being over. The ride might be another terrible one, definitely looking that way now, but sit back and take it as it comes to the very end before passing judgement. The off season will be here again soon enough.
Saint Doug Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 I see about 2 wins in there max. Seattle and Jacksonville. TN will be a nail biter.
HamSandwhich Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 I see about 2 wins in there max. Seattle and Jacksonville. TN will be a nail biter. How do you think TN will be a nail biter but think we'll beat the Seahawks? Lol I think we'll beat them both but the Seahawks are def better than the Titans.
sodbuster Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 When exactly is the time to panic? About 6 or 8 years ago.
cantankerous Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 The season is over. 3-13 or 4-12 is probably what we'll get from this team and coaching staff. Awful.
HamSandwhich Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 About 6 or 8 years ago. Oh really? What about 7?
Saint Doug Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 How do you think TN will be a nail biter but think we'll beat the Seahawks? Lol I think we'll beat them both but the Seahawks are def better than the Titans. I actually haven't seen either team play, but know they both blow. Either way, I see you really didn't take issue with my other statement, that the Bills will likely win 2 more games max.

Please enlighten me as to why I should believe in him?
KOKBILLS Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 .. they cant play any worse. You know how many times I have read that, or wrote it over the past decade or so?...Never, ever, assume this Team can't get worse...They will inevitably prove you wrong...
