Your honest prediction for the Bills record this year

[Captain Caveman]

I couldn't find the option for 6-7.

[DirtDart]

That's where I have them as well. I could see them being a couple games worse or a couple of games better.

I can't see them anything other than 8-8, tough schedule.

[hondo in seattle]

I think both the O and D will be ranked in the top half of the league. But neither in the top 5.

 

9-7

 

But there are so many variables and unanswered questions. Will we see evidence of defensive buy-in? Will TT take the step forward that he needs to take? Will our injury prone stars stay healthy? And so on.

 

11-5 wouldn't shock me. Then again, neither would 7-9.

[LeGOATski]

I always vote optimistically. 11-5 and playoffs.

 

Losses: AZ, SEA, OAK, NE, NY

[GunnerBill]

We will win between 7 and 9 games. I am going to be positive ans say 9-7 but that still won't be enough for play-offs.

[VinceFerragamo]

10-6,11-5

[H2o]

Depending on how this defense comes together and whether Tyrod stays healthy or not we could lose 6 straight from the 10/30 game against the Pats through the 12/11 game against Pittsburgh. I have said this before that I think that 10/30 game against NE will be the biggest one for our season, that things will shape up that way. A win against Tommy Boy and a possible sweep of NE (assuming we beat Janeane Garofalo the first go round) could be huge for this team and their hopes. And I think we are realistically an 8-8 team again

My heart say 10-6 if minimal injuries and some plain luck. My head says 6-10 is a real possibility though.

[The Wiz]

Unfortunately I can't vote since you left off 0-16 as an option.

 

Joking. 9-7

 

Gonna say it starts off poorly(2-4) and the go on a streak. Not enough to make the playoff though.

[8-8 Forever?]

Blurting a number out is silly; if the talent is and stays healthy , 10-6 at least. lose 30-40 games of key positional talent , kiss it goodbye (like most teams without HOF QBs), the NFL formula is pretty simple in the age of relative talent parity: have scheme stability, have talent and stay healthy at the 6 or 7 key talent positions, get top 10 QB play and win the turnover battle , and you'll win 10 games or more... the rest of it is a wash IMHO. I think the Bills may just have all this in house for the first time in many many years.

Tough schedule,3 west coast games and this franchise has shown to be terrible out west.

 

A great start is absolutely necessari say 9-7 and that doesn't get it done!

[vincec]

Offense improves slightly, defense takes a slight step backwards. Same overall result.

[2020 Our Year For Sure]

Decimated by injuries I expect. 6 and 10

[NoSaint]

I think both the O and D will be ranked in the top half of the league. But neither in the top 5.

 

9-7

11-5 wouldn't shock me. Then again, neither would 7-9.

I'd be more surprised by 11-5 than 5-11 but would set my over/under at 8.5. I think it's an 8-9 win group again that might see a lucky bounce or two but injuries could quickly derail things

[Hatszel]

10-6. Yes

Yes thats what I have too. needing to go 6-1 in first 7 games is scary though.

I got em 9-7, after a 5-1 start to the year. 5 game losing streak may get Rex fired mid season.

[Fan in Chicago]

If Tyrod plays every game and continues his development, we go 9-7. If he misses a few games, 7-9

[drinkTHEkoolaid]

I think they start strong, fall apart in the middle( very tough looking stretch) and then finish strong when they got the easier portion of their schedule.

 

I think people will freak out when they get off to a strong start and then start stringing losses together in a row.

Not really that tough
