Kirby Jackson Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) Thought that this poll may be interesting. I went with 10-6 b/c that will mean the team played to my expectations (I actually think 11-5). If they are unlucky they are unlucky. I would rather that than sliding into the playoffs while regressing. Edited June 11, 2015 by Kirby Jackson
Dorkington Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) The only way to the Superbowl is through the playoffs, and then it's "any given Sunday".... I'll take 7-8-1 and playoffs, even if it's not ideal. Edit: Hm, didn't see that it's guaranteed that they lose in the first round with said birth. God dammit. Edited June 11, 2015 by Dorkington

Ha ha, I wanted to make it a difficult decision with a straight forward question. It removes everyone's feelings about particular players, staff, etc...
Gugny Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 10-6. I'd rather be good and just miss than suck and back in/get lucky.

Rocky Landing Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Playoffs. I'd like to see Fred Jackson play once in the post season in his career.
BuffaloFan68 Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) I still say we win 10 plus game & make the playoffs. AFC - Indy vs Buffalo NFC - Philly vs Green Bay Edited June 11, 2015 by BuffaloFan68
papazoid Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 making the playoffs.....your the 6th best team in conference or better. missing the playoffs on a tie breaker could be the 7th, 8th or 9th best team.
Beerball Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 This is pretend. Then pretend to have an iota of intelligence and answer the question.

Not true, because division winners are guaranteed a playoff spot. I used those exact records because that situation happened last year (except the 7-8-1 team won a playoff game against Ryan Lindley).

Kirby Jackson Posted June 11, 2015 Author Posted June 11, 2015 Maybe the Ravens trade for Lindley and we could do the same?I'd love to play Ryan Lindley every week!! There are some on here that would rather play Tom Brady b/c the win "counts more." I read that a lot this off season.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 lets get a good 4 question poll going repeat the questions to show your favorite scenario and second Lets push for something like this AFCE division crown (to unseat the Cheaters) at least 1 playoff win AFCE division crown playoff loss 10-6 WC and a playoff win (or 9-7) 10-6 WC and a playoff loss

A good poll question is difficult to answer.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Everyone will pick playoff wins. A good poll question is difficult to answer. true, but then people won't answer it if they don't like the scenarios
Kirby Jackson Posted June 11, 2015 Author Posted June 11, 2015 true, but then people won't answer it if they don't like the scenariosThat's why it isn't leading. It has nothing to do with a franchise QB or wins over certain teams or anything else. It's a simple 10-6 no playoffs or 7-8-1 and a playoff loss. It's a difficult decision and a case can easily be made on either side. When both sides can be right (Hogan vs. Goodwin) it makes the conversation better. It doesn't matter how many people vote it matters how close the poll is. The closer the poll on here the better the conversation.
