Dorkington Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 haha i noticed that. almost set up a B/R account just to let them know, but it didnt seem worth the time. funnier still is that the buffalo bills website reposted that mistake in one of their articles aggregating opinions on the bills from around the internet: http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/What-theyre-saying-Grades-and-reviews-for-the-Bills-2015-draft-class/1e280db6-a154-4906-b95a-854c47008482 We're in denial about losing to the freaking Raiders. It's all about the QB and I agree. I wonder how closely it follows a QB Power Rankings list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 In that case, put Tom Brady alone against our D. He should be able to beat them by himself, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virgil Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 In that case, put Tom Brady alone against our D. He should be able to beat them by himself, right? That's a bit dramatic. You put a top 10 QB on our team last year, we are in the afc championship game. You put Rodgers on our team this year, we are super bowl favorites.

ChevyVanMiller Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 They also have our record last year at 10-6. You know, fwiw. Obviously, they're still in denial over the Bryce Brown fumble versus KC - aren't we all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Where is that? Last time I was in Salem I had a hankering for some DQ but could not find one for the life of me. http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/07/21/art-briles-challenges-you-to-go-to-a-dairy-queen-in-salem-ore-and-ask-about-bryce-petty/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsoldier54 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 After finishing last year 17th. Wow, espn must think highly of Marrone and Orton. @mikerodak: After finishing last season No. 17, the Bills dropped to No. 18 in our ESPN post-draft Power Rankings: http://t.co/mLnEpLitw0 Shows how silly these polls are. People who are voting probably weren't even aware of the original ratings from last year. No question that the Bills should be higher on the list, but it means nothing in the big picture. Just some writers opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No question that the Bills should be higher on the list, but it means nothing in the big picture. Just some writers opinions. This is good, I'd rather have the team feeling like they need to earn something than coming in at say 8th or wherever we deserve to be and thinking that they've already achieved something. Their focus needs to be on "the next game" and the next game only each and every week. We need to come out strong to beat both the Pats and Indy early on. If we can do that then we're well on our way to 11-5+ and IMO a division championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Pretty fair. Keep in mind this is after the draft. The Bills didn't have a 1st or 4th round pick so I would imagine that if you take a quick snapshot after the draft when other teams had more selections it's possible that teams could hop over. It's all speculation. Let the pre-season play out before you take any "rankings" seriously and even then weeks 1-4 of the regular season will really start the process of getting a good snapshot of the season.

BuffaloHokie13 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 NFL Vegas Rankings has us tied for 14th with Detroit and Houston. Behind: 1. Seattle 2. Green Bay 3. New England 4. Denver 5. Indy 6.

DrDawkinstein Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I will never understand the media's obsession/love for the Dolphins. They get picked every year to be the "best chance to knock off the Pats", or at least come in 2nd in the Division and earn a Wild Card, but their roster has been less than impressive, coaching staff questionable at best, and FO all over the place. I just dont get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talley56 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 To be honest, the only two teams ahead of us who I think should be below us are Miami and Carolina. The only reason Carolina is ahead of us is because they won a soft division last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd argue the only reason they are ahead is Cam Newton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baltimore, Philly, and Miami 10. Cincy and Arizona 12. Pittsburgh and KC Vegas odds are the best representation of a power ranking. It's not just talking heads that clearly have favorites, the vegas odds are a combination of statistics and where people are putting their money. I highly doubt most "experts" put their money where their mouth is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
