2016 FINAL RECORD - 10 - 6

• Should be enough for a wild card.. especially since we beat both the Steelers and Bengals head to head.
• Thank god we don't play the Chiefs this year.. who seem to ruin our playoff chances every year

[WhitewalkerInPhilly]

@OP:

 

Heads up, you have the home/away reversed with the Pats. I still agree with your final scores.

[jr1]

Only loss to the Cardinals

[Fadingpain]

I agree with most of your picks, not necessarily the scores.

 

I have us 1-2 wins less than you.

I am sure there will be a few surprise losses in their like to the Raiders or one of the Jets games, but I think we can pull off a win at home against the Cardinals.

[PromoTheRobot]

I'm saying 11-5. Losses are Cards, Hawks, Bengals, Raiders and one Pats game.

Let's start with Cards, 2nd Pats game, Seattle on the road, Cinci, Pitt...all sure thing losses. That means we pretty much have to be perfect the rest of the way and I can foresee losses to Raiders, possibly Jags, trap game vs LA or Jets. 8-8 is best we can hope for imo

Cards aren't a sure thing loss. Palmer looked bad in preseason and they are playing in Buffalo. I give us a shot. So 1-4 out of your games. We would need to win 8 or 9 out of 11 of the rest. That's not perfect, and it isn't crazy to think we need to win games to make the playoffs.

[ChanOverChin]

It's really too early to predict since I expect the Bills to still do some roster shuffling before Week #1. We've already just recently cut K Gay and picked up LB McCray and LB Humber. Who's next??

 

....nonetheless, I will play your game.

 

If Tyrod plays all 16 games, I predict the following (best case scenario). If not, it could get ugly because this is a pretty tough schedule.

[BuffaloHokie13]

@Ravens: W, 24-20
Jets: W, 17-14
Cardinals: L, 21-27
@Patriots: W, 20-10
@Rams: W, 24-10
49ers: W, 31-9
@Dolphins: W, 38-24
Patriots: L, 28-45
@Seahawks: L, 17-27
@Bengals: L, 24-37

Jaguars: W, 31-24
@Raiders: L, 21-24
Steelers: L, 28-34
Browns: W, 32-10
Dolphins: W, 21-17
@Jets: W, 27-17

 

Overall: 10-6

Points scored (25.2/game) would put us 10th in scoring based on last year (up 2 spots)

Points allowed (21.8/game) would rank the D 15th, which is exactly where they ranked last year despite a .6 point per game improvement over 2015

10-6

 

It won't be easy. A 3-1 quarter to get everyone excited, followed by a 1-3 quarter, a 2-2 quarter and ending with a 4-0 quarter with the team sensing the apocalypse is nigh should they fail.

19-0 baby. Same as the senator

Somebody needs to teach you the definition of the word opinion.
