Doc Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Sammy played half the season and the Bills were 2-6 in those games. Darby was healthy all year and played poorly.
Gunsgoodtime Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 5-11 sounds about right to now, give a game or take a game
Big Turk Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Sad part is...Rex Ryan had the highest win percentage of any coach since the drought
thurst44 Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 @mikerodak I picked the Bills to go 5-11, but my ESPN NFL Nation colleagues think they'll go 3-13 https://t.co/vRrPx0Rabd We go through this almost every year. The only year they were right was the 0-8 start year. I honestly don't get why people think this team is particularly bad. Mediocre, I get, but there's still one of the best rushing attacks, and the D-line/linebackers look good and deep. We'll see how the defensive backs play -- that's a definite wild card. However, why this team is supposedly much worse than last year's is beyond me (but both local and national press seem to do this every year, save the rare years we are a chic pick).
Juice_32 Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 The defense is too good for 5 wins. I smell 7-9.
The Wiz Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Sad part is...Rex Ryan had the highest win percentage of any coach since the drought thought mularkey did?
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 The defense is too good for 5 wins. I smell 7-9. AIDS
Nick the Greek Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 I've predicted 6-10 for the past 8 years. No need to change it now.
BuffaloBaumer Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 @mikerodak I picked the Bills to go 5-11, but my ESPN NFL Nation colleagues think they'll go 3-13 https://t.co/vRrPx0Rabd Yes, 3-13! Make it happen boys, make it happen
BuffaloHokie13 Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 We go through this almost every year. The only year they were right was the 0-8 start year.

However, why this team is supposedly much worse than last year's is beyond me (but both local and national press seem to do this every year, save the rare years we are a chic pick). It's their format. Almost every sports writer thinks the team they cover should beat the Bills. Except the one for the Jets, he usually thinks we'll split.
bisonbrigade Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) That should get the Bills a top 5 pick in the draft. QB Mason Rudolph. Jim Kelly 2.0 and WR James Washington. Edited August 31, 2017 by bisonbrigade
Scott7975 Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 It's their format. Almost every sports writer thinks the team they cover should beat the Bills. Except the one for the Jets, he usually thinks we'll split. What I have found sad all these years is we usually end up beating a team we have no business beating only to turn around and lose to a team we have no business losing to.
Houston's #1 Bills Fan Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 WOW.....just wow. I find it funny that NO ONE has any confidence in this team at all. Sad.....
BuffaloBaumer Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 WOW.....just wow. I find it funny that NO ONE has any confidence in this team at all. Sad..... It's going to be the worst offense you have seen around here in many years.
Beast Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) I think the defense will be much better this season, they will be better coached/prepared on Sundays, and a whole season of Matthews will be better than a half season of an injured Watkins. Final record: 9-7 Edited August 31, 2017 by Binghamton Beast
billsbackto81 Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Bills will disappoint fans once again and finish with an 8-8 record. Defense will show improvement and keep them competitive the while offense again excels in the run game. Unfortunately this will upset the masses that are clamoring for a possible franchise QB as Tyrod goes 3700 yds / 28/5 / 91 passer rtg.

26CornerBlitz Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Lord knows that ESPN preseason picks are ironclad. http://espnmediazone.com/us/press-releases/2016/09/espn-commentators-share-predictions-2016-nfl-season/ I would hope that none one thinks they are given their track record.
