NE, Hou, and KC have all blown out teams this season. our offense is nowhere near good enough right now to be considered a top team in the NFL.

Watson has 17 TDs so far, including 5 rushing. Hopkins and Fuller. I think the Texans could beat NE in NE right now.

Rob's House Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 Remember, our assessment of how good teams are is skewed by the fact that we're only 1/3 of the way into the season. In 6 weeks we'll have a different picture. Some teams we think suck will have turned it around, and vice versa. Imagine if 2 weeks ago someone predicted the Chefs would lose consecutive games to the Colts and Texans, Denver would beat TN, SF would beat LA, and NJJ would beat Dallas. That guy would have been derided as an idiot and a fool, but here we are. 4

NE struggled against the Bills and for the most part The Giants. Turnovers saved the Pats bacon.

One Buffalo Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 As the old saying goes, "Defense wins championships..." In recent years much has been made of the new modern offenses and high powered attacks. But they all have flaws and once the defensive minds are able to break them down and find the weaknesses, they can be and will be stopped. With the strength of the Bills defense I believe that anything is possible and that this team has the potential to take down anyone out there this year. Even though we might not be the "better team". 1
Captain Hindsight Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 The AFC sets up well for the Bills this year. I dont see a game on the docket that they can't win. Philly should be a challenge Browns on the road could be a tough game Dallas if they decide to show up Baltimore will be tough, but winnable especially at home Could week 16 be for the division? Honestly it wouldn't shock me. If Josh learns how to take care of the football better, this team could be very very good

They are going to win out now and ride the wave to the SB. Expand I wouldn’t mind them winning a bunch of games and handing some teams losses that might be in the WC picture. Hell, maybe they surprise NE next week. Theyre clearly a decent team when healthy, and much better than their 1-4 record. Best case scenario is them missing the playoffs but not being in position to draft Chase Young or Jerry Jeudy. 1
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 Not as much a dumpster fire as truly demonstrating parity. Every team has a shot every week. Specific personnel Match ups are more important than ever and a lot of games hinge on just a few plays. 1

Expand I like Houston a lot but their secondary does concern me and they suffered some key injuries yesterday. The rookie RT went down and since they moved him from LG to RT and inserted the other rookie at LG the line has taken a very big step. Cunningham was hurt for a period too and Robey who is having a good year at corner went down. They are not the deepest team because they have a lot of money tied up in their stars so that hurts. I also just wonder about whether they have a mental block with the Patriots similar to the Bills.

Watson is playing at a MVP level right now. we have struggled to beat 4 of the worst teams in the NFL. Expand That’s a purely subjective argument. Most would put Pats and Chiefs as 1 and 2 , and I still would as well. While Watson is excellent and the best player on that team, it’s not clear that HOU would beat the Bills head to head. In fact, last year’s edition of the Bills ( much worse) seemed well on their way to upsetting the Texans at home until Allen was injured. Pickerman came in and we all know the rest. Anyway, it’s about matchups and I think if HOU and BUF played each other the home team would be a slight favorite. 1
May Day 10 Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 It seems like a weird season. Teams look unbeatable and fall to earth hard (Dal, Ten). Other teams look like they are out of it, then somehow look good (Pit, Den, Min). Might have some shakeup for the playoffs this season with some new entrants and teams advancing. 1
