Artem Lipatov Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Only 6 teams in AFC have winning record. We must be in playoffs this year. I realize it's only start but 10 teams lost 2-3 games of 3. They are surely beatable. We have 2 wins insurance over them to stay in playoffs picture. Only 3 teams have 3-0. Bills, Chiefs and Patriots. Good company. 1 1 1
The Red King Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 The window of opportunity is most definately there, but the Bills haven't locked anything up yet. They gotta keep winning games. 1
IgotBILLStopay Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Still too early in the. Season for blanket statements. That said, it is true that even if we lose next week, we will remain a top 6 team in the AFC. But I feel we have a decent shot at sitting on top of the AFC after week 4. Standout defense, clutch qb, electric rb, rookie gronk, things looking up. 1
Artem Lipatov Posted September 23, 2019 Author Posted September 23, 2019 And one 2-1 team is Colts. With all due respect to Frank Reich it's hard to beleive they will clinch playoff after Luck's sudden retirement.

Have heard lots of commentary on how this doesn’t hurt them that much, kind of hard to believe The Ewing Theory applies here
Mat68 Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 The AFC is wide open. Buffalo should hit double digit wins for the first time in ages. 1

Colts will be there all year. 1 minute ago, Mat68 said: The AFC is wide open. Buffalo should hit double digit wins for the first time in ages. Bills are too inconsistent to say this with confidence. Right now they remind me of the Trent Edwards Bills that started 3-0 or 4-0. Edited September 23, 2019 by Buffalo_Stampede
Golden*Wheels Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Hard not to look ahead...schedule seems very favorable, two road games in the pocket already....

Besides, we must knock NE* off their throne first if we want to be seen as a legitimate team. 1 1

I am not sure we will beat them this week. They are looking scary this season. And our new offensive players need some time to play together. We'll dethrone them in playoffs. 1
Bevis Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 The Bills' future this season really depends on how their culture and process will be able to cope with a demoralizing loss the Pats. If they win, they will be equally tested on the coping with success front.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Cool your jets. Since 1990 73.8% of teams that started the season 3-0 reached the playoffs Twice Buffalo was part of the 26.2% Edited September 23, 2019 by SlimShady'sGhost 1
Magox Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 To borrow and slightly reword a phrase from a Bills player. "3-0 ain't $#&! " Stay focused week to week, stay relatively healthy and continue to progress and they'll get there. 1
whatdrought Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 At this point in the season we look equally like a 12-4 team and a 6-10 team. Too early to say either way. 3
Ethan in Cleveland Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Titans and Eagles games will say a lot. They should beat a below average Titans team on the road and they should battle the Eagles to a close game. Win one of those two and I think they will make it. I fear this week will be another game that the Bills get overhyped and do too much. Bills teams have a history of making this game more than it is and getting blown out early. If they can get through the first quarter tied or only down a score they will be competitive throughout the game. Most worried about the start of the game and early in the third quarter. 1

That's 4 wins and i don't really care if people think that's unrealistic because it isn't. 2

Tennessee aint looking too hot either, nor is Denver, and the love lust is fading for CLE Will Big Ben even return to play in December? EDIT - Big Benjavitis is done. Circle another possible win Edited September 23, 2019 by SlimShady'sGhost
BITE ME Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 I like the Bills to be the #5 seed and head to Texans in playoffs. Then Chiefs. Then Pats. Then Cowboys. Then Parade in Buffalo. 1
Josh_Allen Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 This is the year/schedule if the Bills ever want to be in a playoff spot that's not "in the hunt" column.
PetermansRedemption Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 This week will tell us a lot about this team. The Patriots are the first real team we face. Otherwise our opponents are a combined 1-8, 0-8 if you discount the 1 victory as it was led by Daniel Jones and not Eli Manning. If they go out and handle business against the Patriots then it’s time to start planning the parade. 1
