416BillsFan Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 There will be more home games at the end of the season to browbeat encourage the Pegulas to build a new stadium. 1

Totally agree- they have been a consistent, winning organization for some time. I saw a team last year that was just average, an aging QB, AB leaving, etc etc. I see the Steelers 8-8 at best- just my opinion- cheers! 1

Based on history your right. Based on recent events maybe not. Time will tell. One thing is for certain, the Rooney’s will not tolerate it and a shake up will happen if the rails come off. 1

The Bills Blog Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 13-3. Losses @ CLE, @ NE, and @ NYJ. Bills' times of not being good end suddenly and without doubt. It often goes this way when teams turn the corner. 1 1

It often goes this way when teams turn the corner. Overly optimistic, but not impossible. The idea that a team can turn it around after a losing season isn’t a pipe dream. They’re signing up some solid FA, and the draft still to come. Next season could be 13-3, or 8-8. Time will tell.

But it would be very Billsy to go 9-3 in the first 75% of the season and then, well, ya know...
LabattBlue Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Predicting the season record before the schedule of games is even released? Laziness at its best. Did they come up with this two minutes before the show went on the air? I wish I had a job that would allow me to mail it in every day, have great job security, and probably make a decent salary....all for 3 hours work a day.

I mean, I’m not defending Schopp & Bulldog (I think they’re awful), but the delta of someone’s predictions before and after the order of games is known can’t be more than a game, can it? Like, yeah, maybe we’ll be getting New England at the Ralph after our bye so you may very lightly pencil that in as a W, but then you also realize that you’re getting a TNF game @Pittsburgh after THEIR bye, so that prediction might very well go from a W to a big fat L.

My point is they can't come up with anything better to discuss. Isn't there another food draft for them to spend two hours on? 1
