Fadingpain Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Funny, the computer says we should have won the 6 or 7 games most predicted, including me at 6 games. A perfect storm of factors came together this year to get us in that has not happened in recent years, despite having an arguably better team in those years. I get that people don't care and we are just happy to have the monkey off our back... But we still have a way's to go. For a first year effort from a new GM and coaching staff, you'd have to say things are going well. 2

That has to be the silliest thing I've ever seen Thats analytics. Reality doesn't matter it what the metrics say. Why even play the games.

Chris66 Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Afc as a whole is not as good as years past. In fact any other year half these teams wouldnt be in. 1
Lfod Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 It will take people getting used to that the Bills are relevant and will be next year. Anyone want some Kool Aid I'm sipping on?
CuddyDark Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 28 minutes ago, John in Jax said: Umm, no. How was the coaching for the Jets game, AFTER 10 DAYS TO GET READY? And then the next two after that!? For the most part. Coaching has been better against most teams. They don't get out of position much. They don't get surprised much. They don't look lost like in years past. The team had talent for 5 season, but coaching was predictable or awful. This year it has been better. I didn't say McDermott is great. I still think he's too defensive at times. But to say this team isn't coached better is not paying attention. Also they have match problems against teams with big defensive lines. Probably will have same problem with the Jags. They will probably fight to see who gets to lineup over RG.

I don't hear any of that from the national media. All my friends from around the country are thrilled for us and are pulling for the Bills to win. I have great friends. The national media is calling us a Joke. From Bill Simmons to Colin cowherd they are giving us no chance there are WNY transplants all over the country who love the Bills like shooter mcgavin(yes I know it's not his real name lol) but it's definitely the minority... nobody in the national media thinks we are gonna win

teef Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 should we call the jags and tell them we don't want to play anymore? 1
C.Biscuit97 Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 We won a 4 way tie at 9-7 beating mostly horrible teams. If we weren't Bills fans, this was a pretty boring, nothing special team. But the Bills finally caught a break and they get to play a meaningful game for the first time in 18 years. And anything can happen. But this was not a good football team. But they don't beat themselves and in a league loaded with crap teams, that can be enough.

We can beat Jax, let's enjoy the week and have some fun on sunday. I'm pumped.

That they don't deserve to be in the playoffs watch them come out like a bat outta hell and hit Jacksonville right in the mouth Buster Douglas beat the **** outta Tyson the bills win this week I'm confident Well said sir. I concur vehemently with said statement...
Domdab99 Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 come on - we all know this team is not that good...it's a fun ride, though. Maybe they can get a streak going, who knows? 2

And I think this bunch is scrappy and is really going to embrace the underdog role as they did in the regular season.
