Look at the 1st page and see if there are any interesting discussions? I realize that nothing goes on this time of year but come on!! I opened this thread to find quick and easy crow recipes for dinner and seemed to have tripped into the 2-14 prediction thread... or did I?

Rich people showing off their Rolex BTW I think the Bills are tanking for a QB ................sorry had to say it........kind of like the crappy record predictions we get a few of these every year.

Too bad there is no accountability in the media. This defense will be much better than any of the media gives it credit for...fringe top 10 in a lot of categories and McDermott and the staff will have them ready to play just like last year. On offense I think having a real OC and a QB that's not afraid to make mistakes will help open things up for shady. Everyone assumes the defense will key in to stop the run, which worked when Taylor was QB but AJ or Josh will actually throw the ball over the top if they stack the box. Yes our weapons are questionable at WR...but clay and oleary are quality pass catchers...cadet and shady are very good out of backfield, Kerley, Jones and Benjamin are not terrible especially in a Daboll offense. We won't light world on fire but 8 wins is doable. Your triumphant rallying cry crescendoing in the bold statement "8 wins is doable" falls a bit flat. Sorry.

The team did us fans no favors by doing the right thing and making Allen take baby steps. Good luck. I'm sitting on a deck in Hawaii as I write this. 1

Kemp Posted June 9, 2018 Posted June 9, 2018 I understand people thinking that the D might be okay, but unless McCarron is a very pleasant surprise, I can't see this offense even being average. 1

John from Riverside Posted June 9, 2018 Posted June 9, 2018 As the jags showed this past year....if you can play great defense and run the ball......you can get to the playoffs. Their qb was horrible most of the year......and they still made it deep. Our qb situation is better then theirs
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted June 9, 2018 Posted June 9, 2018 Considering many members of TBD are driven up the (stadium) wall by the predictions of just about anyone with access to the World Wide Web, may I suggest you each pick your 'worst enemy', and record their predictions. That way if the jamoke scrubs his/her picks, you have proof of what was prognosticated well before training camps. It probably wouldn't take too much coordination, and next year the seers' bosses might not be so quick to give them a voice.

We won't light world on fire but 8 wins is doable. There's plenty of accountability in the media - just not the type we'd wish for. Guys who drive revenues do well. Guys who don't drive revenue don't. It has next-to-nothing to do with accuracy at predictions or knowledge of the game. I'm not expecting the Bills to light the world on fire this season - too many gaps/questions on the offensive side - I also think prediction of 2 wins are pretty crazy. Yet we read those articles, given the author clicks. 1

The Red King Posted June 9, 2018 Posted June 9, 2018 Rodak said the Bills' season was over before it started last year and has yet to eat a feather. There will be no crow, as there is no accountability.
