Nanker Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 I'm going to swallow some pride and go with advice a Pats fan once gave me after a rare Bills win. It's just one game in the season, don't hyper focus on it. The W/L record only matters when the season's over. If we beat the Pats on Oct 30th and then lay a bunch of eggs in Nov/Dec the Oct 30th game won't matter. I get what you're saying - to a point. But you know how long it's been since we swept the season series with the Pats***? 1999, that's when. Even an otherwise wrecked season would have a certain - and not insignificant - reason to gloat. Reminds me of the days when a victory over the Phins was a great, great good feeling.
Fadingpain Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 Pats won't be 6-1 when they meet us. They'll beat this year's Bengals at home no problem. The following week at Pittsburgh is definitely a potential loss.

Reminds me of the days when a victory over the Phins was a great, great good feeling. Again, learning from the Pats fans advice of that day - I just want playoffs - sweeping the Pats means little to me without a Bills playoff appearance attached to it.

Estelle Getty Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 I think it all depends if we get an unbiased pats ref crew like we finally did week 4. If it is hochuli, coleman, or the guy who looks like a fat todd bridges we are prob sunk. All things being equal i think we will both be 5-2 going into the game and may the best team win.
JPicc2114 Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 This is the NFL, no easy games. and Tom Brady is coming to Buffalo on Halloween and hes not bringing candy

Reminds me of the days when a victory over the Phins was a great, great good feeling. The 1970s were miserable huh? Kind of crazy being a Bills fan for 8 years (joined the herd in 1973) before we ever get a win against a certain team in our own division. Winning ugly is still winning was never better exemplified than in that game. 15 turnovers total or something crazy like that. Edited October 10, 2016 by Coastie
Solomon Grundy Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 Pats won't be 6-1 when they meet us. They may lose next 2 games
Virgil Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 I'll give the OP a break because it really doesn't matter one bit if we, as fans, jump ahead of ourselves. The important thing is that the team doesn't overlook an opponent. The prospect of being 5-2 and headed into a 1st place showdown with the Pats*** should have all Bills fans excited. Here's to hoping the team takes care of necessary business the next two Sundays. Um, excuse me? Do you mean to tell me that the team doesn't know when we get excited or pissed off on here? That TT doesn't think of me when dropping back? I don't know where you get off, but keep your crazy to yourself sir!
H2o Posted October 17, 2016 Author Posted October 17, 2016 Squish the Phish week is officially on. I know they just beat the Steelers, but a blind crow gets a piece of corn every once in a while. One win away from the biggest game in Buffalo in 10+ years. 👍
PromoTheRobot Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 When we get rolled next week by a beatable 49ers team at home IM BUMPING THIS THREAD!!
Freddie's Dead Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 We can't afford to overlook the Fish, they just smacked the Squeelers. "You gotta play 'em one game at a time".
r00tabaga Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Can't wait to see how they finally fit Shaq in. Dareus could help but I'm thinking they don't rush him back until Pats* week.
PatsFanNH Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 They'll beat this year's Bengals at home no problem. The following week at Pittsburgh is definitely a potential loss. That all depends on how hurt Big Ben is after this weeks game.
K D Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Can't overlook Miami. I didn't see the game but they came up big this week vs Pitt. Mario and Kiko will want some revenge. It will probably be 90 degrees so that could be a factor. If we stick to our game plan and run the ball down their throats then we should be ok

They'll be the '72 version of the franchise by mid week.
CSBill Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) Not trying to get ahead of ourselves, nor jinx us, but we should be 5-2 when the Pats come to Buffalo on 10/30/16. The 49ers and Dolphins are both games we should, and God knows I hope, win. That being said it could possibly set up the biggest game for the Bills in 10 years. Tom Brady is back so they will likely be 6-1 heading into that game. If the defense keeps rolling like it has been, along with Dareus and Lawson in the fold, Marsha could be taking a beating ALL DAY LONG.The Ralph will be ROCKIN that day for certain. Can you imagine sweeping the Pats and having an outright division lead going into the first week of November? GO BILLS!!! "Not trying to get ahead of ourselves, nor jinx us" . . . too late! When they lose next week, we will know where to lay the blame. Edited October 17, 2016 by CSBill
Dragonborn10 Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 You should have started this post after the Jets game like I did. At Miami will be tough. Bills beat Miami when Tannyhill turns it over. I think Goodwin scores twice this week against their terrible DB's.
Stenbar Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Steelers should be an awesome game. I think Ben can beat them in a shootout. Cincy could beat them, but they have been very up and down so far. Ultimate jinx post...lol....I've done it many times myself
