Whipped dog syndrome or passionate non thinking fan syndrome? These are bigger tests than what has been played so far because the bills will be expected to win and therefore be under more pressure with a QB who is still developing. It's a logical argument. If you dont see that then you need an IQ test. Don't get this confused with me not expecting the bills to have a winning record now and getting into the post season. But yes I am skeptical.

OK, let's hear your "logic" as to why those will be challenges because the Bills will be favored. This should be good.

I’m all in on this season. I really can’t stand the whole “wait and see” approach to being a fan. People missed out on the whole 2017 season because of that nonsense.... that being said. It’s still ok to realize they need to beat some better competition and those teams are at least solid... describing the eagles as “garbage” is a bit excessive IMO. That will be a tough game win or lose, I think.... if we can take 2 of those 3 i’d be happy. 1

This is a team that just surrendered 330+ yards to KIRK COUSINS. Hell, even the people around HERE are starting to call for Pederson's head.
london_bills Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 Cowboys are 3-3. Eagles are 3-3. Ravens are 4-2. Cowboys game is away on national TV. Total 10-8 record. Eagles won the Superbowl two years ago. I understand it is not the exact same team. Same head coach. Ravens have same head coach that won them the Superbowl. Teams we have beaten this season have a combined record of 4-18. Like I say the expectation will change around the bills and its how they can cope with that. Statistically the eagles, ravens, cowboys are better teams than they have played. With 3 good QBs aswell. The way the league works is you beat teams who are more respectable and you get more respect. As we know at the moment everyone's really ignoring the bills like they do. My point is that these are harder games than the first 4 wins.

Sorry, but I'm not a believer in Dak, Carson Wentz OR Lamar Jackson, especially not against this defense. 1

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 Just now, london_bills said: Sure, but you can see the other points. Not really, no. In the NFL, you beat the teams put in front of you or you don't. There's no style points, no rankings, no committees. If McDermott and staff have shown us anything, they're prepared, balanced and never get too high or too low. They SHOULD have beat the Patriots, and I think if Josh had completed the game, they would have. This is a VERY good team, and anyone who disagrees is living in the past rather than the now. 3
london_bills Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 McDermott Will be fully aware of how tough this stretch will be. He will not be thinking we have made the playoffs now. 4 minutes ago, Joe in Winslow said: Not really, no. In the NFL, you beat the teams put in front of you or you don't.

london_bills Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 Allen still has the potential to throw the other team the game. Love the guy but he's a loose cannon at this point.

Ill be ready with my bucket at the end of the season, I want to taste all of your sweet salty tears after another Bills implosion. I swear, some of you have been Bills fans for like 5 minutes. None of those teams have anything to do with this team. I'm a man who's not ashamed to cry. But I don't cry over the Bills until they win the Super Bowl. 1

I will say their pass d is a freaking leaky sieve. I'm excited about the prospects of 3 straight "get right" games for the offense. but it wont surprise me if we lose that eagles game.

I can believe the bills are a very good team and still not be surprised if they those a game out of the three being mentioned. odds are they don't win all of those games. have you not watched the NFL over the last 20 years? parity, man.

Solomon Grundy Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 The greatest CB in NFL history said on his show "PrimeTime" that if the young QB stop turning over the ball that the Bills can be contenders for the SB.

I have no problems with people thinking they'll lose one of those games. I DO have a problem with them thinking that any of those teams are in any way something we should fear. Usually, the reasons given are along the lines of: 1) Oh, they never win in Pittsburgh 2) National TV game in Dallas etc. 1

I don’t see a team we should be scared of the rest of the way out(NE included).... but they are gonna lose a couple of those games. 1

They’ve all been inaccurate throws, mostly too long. Let me ask you... who is faster, Brown or Foster? So if Foster is faster than Brown, don't you think Allen's throws become right on the money considering Foster's ability to get to the spot faster? Hopefully Foster returns and we get that magic back.

Deion also mentioned that he thinks the Bills are the team to stop the Patriots, no the Chiefs. I was surprised (in a good way) to hear this. Deion went on to mention that the offense, and Josh in particular, does need to stop turning over the ball; which he seemed to suggest this will happen. 1

No one's saying the bills should fear these teams mate, but they are BETTER teams than who the bills have faced so far. Look at the records. Like another poster said, recognize your stubbornness. ?
