BillyBaroo Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 If kicking field goals on offense and having a great run defense but giving up lots of passing yards means that we are good... then you might be right!
PS 56 Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 I am in on a winning season. All I know is that my work week is a hell of a lot more productive after a Bill's victory on the weekend.
Solomon Grundy Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 he did fine. Won 2 of 5 games, one loss he played in NO where no one wins and with busted ribs, one loss he would have won if the D and ST were not so terrible (Cincy). I think he played well enough to win 3. This year I have no idea, considering his camp woes. I'm sorry Yolo, but 2-5 is NOT FINE. I am sticking by my prediction. EJ Manuel Should be much better by mid season, he is technically still a rookie. We don't need Johnny U to win, just some average quarterbacking. I have seen many team win championships with Defense alone. The doom and Gloom is over rated I agree with you HOUSE and I think EJ is better than SOME think!
Best Player Available Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 I'm sorry Yolo, but 2-5 is NOT FINE. In Bills world 2-5 is awesome. because, it is right there with their 14 years of almost but never Being a viable franchise. Calling the Bills mediocre is an insult to the word mediocre. lets hope the quarterback wakes up, and some calling him " technically a rookie" has me asking For a copy of the NFL official rookie definition. the technical one. I would do back flips at 8-8 and the starting WB upright week 17.

Mr. WEO Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 To me a rookie Quarterback is ANY STARTER that has not reached 16 games in 2 seasons JP Losman.
YoloinOhio Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 I'm sorry Yolo, but 2-5 is NOT FINE. I agree with you HOUSE and I think EJ is better than SOME think! he wasn't 2-5. He won 2 of 5. I said he was fine for a backup because IMO he played well enough to win 3 of 5.
HOUSE Posted August 22, 2014 Author Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) JP Losman. Losman is less then a rookie Edited August 22, 2014 by HOUSE
BuffaloBillsForever Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) I have followed this team for over 50 years.This doesn't make me an expert. I have just seen a lot of teams come and go. I have been wrong just a few times. For the record, I am within 2 wins of being correct over the last 20 years. 8 years I hit the record dead on. I see the 4-12 predictions here everyday. Some want you to feel stupid for expecting a winning season. This team has talent and depth, first time in 15 years. Don't be suckered, this team could run the ball behind a recently adjusted line and easily make the playoffs. Barring major injures, I see 9-7 maybe better You guys that are predicting less, are simply bitter from losing 15 straight years. This may be the best DEFENSE in Team history.....and we don't even have Kiko Also, wait and see, The Bills will add another quarterback before the season officially starts, probably from the final 53 EJ Manuel DOES NOT keep me up at night....... .. Have you ever made a Bills prediction on a previous message board in the past that if you get it wrong you would.....? Edited August 22, 2014 by BuffaloBillsForever

I'm ready for a good season too. 10-6 is not unreasonable to expect from the Bills this season. Although I suspect the Bills will be 9-7. That's still good enough for a playoff berth. The AFC is weaker than the NFC. There is a lot of talent on this team, and they have enough experience to get to the post season. The only thing that worries me is the play calling of Nate Hackett. If he has not improved from last season, then we are in trouble.

3rdand12 Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 sure, that's part of it. like albert einstein once said, "fool me once, shame on you. fool me 15 years straight, we won't get fooled again." That was a British band named the Who i think for the quote ?
