Bleeding Bills Blue Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 4 minutes ago, Bills fan since 87 said: Wouldn't stun me to see Pitt lose to Cleveland Thursday night. None of the teams they're playing are that bad. Their Defense is playing lights out at the moment, but as we've seen the last few weeks with our vaunted d... teams adjust. I could see anyone on that schedule other than cincy beat them. Just like anyone on our schedule can beat us. Neither team has enough O to be penciling in W's on their schedule. Colts, Titans, Jags, Raiders are all still in it too. All kind of flawed teams too, much like buffalo
Rock-A-Bye Beasley Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 (edited) I doubt we win both of the next two. I think the most likely record for the Bills when they play the Steelers is 7-6. edit: and I could see PIT splitting with cleveland, making them 8-5. Would still be a big game for WC.

There are also two wildcard spots. So both teams can get in. I think the two spots are between the Bills, Steelers and Raiders.... but will change if the Bills drop the next two. Absolutely can't lose to the Dolphins. Don't forget about the Texans or Colts. One will win the division but the other will also be in the WC mix. 1
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 we are weeks away from this game. A lot can happen between now and then
whatdrought Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 I expect Pittsburgh to drop at least one to Cleveland, and I expect us to beat either Dallas or Baltimore.

Instead of stressing the playoffs so much, we should be stressing be a threat to win it all. What's the point of getting in the playoffs when you don't have a realistic shot. Right now we don't. Our offense cannot score like a playoff team should For a team that has only made the playoffs once in the past 19 years I would say getting in is pretty important. Building a winning culture like McBean always talk about means you need to win. Nobody who looks at the Bills realistically thinks they are a contender this season but making the playoffs would do wonders for their confidence especially the younger players who are the core part of the team the organization is trying to build around.

Our offense cannot score like a playoff team should I mean - Seattle made it at 7-9 and won a WC game: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/sea/2010.htm Same with Denver in 2011: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/den/2011.htm. Denver wasn't even good - buffalo blew them out 2 weeks before. Ravens in 2012 actually won it all... nothing about that team screamed special. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/rav/2012.htm I guess the reasoning is - you can't win a playoff game if you don't make the playoffs. Win 1, and who knows what happens.
Matt_In_NH Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 The Pitt game is huge more than likely....wish it was in Buffalo but that is the game more than any other they need to win.
billsfan714 Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 I'll be taking plenty of crap down here if the Steelers beat us. Not feeling good about that game right now and thats with their backup QB.
theAteam Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 I think we gave Cleveland a shot of adrenaline and honestly that game should not have been as close as it was considering the herculean efforts the D made at the goal line. They may take one from PIT. Even so I think our road to playoffs requires a win there.

Meh, it's probably not a logical thing I can defend worth anything.. Just the NFL as we know it, our season is missing a crazy "how the heck did that happen" win and I think we'll get it.
YoloinOhio Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 No one has any idea what will happen in any of the rest of the games. There almost 1/2 season left. Assuming wins and losses looking at the schedule is a waste of time. Jmo. They have a great chance vs some of the really bad teams of course but the nfl is weird and they could beat the Ravens and lose to the Jets. I just don’t play the schedule game, personally. 25 minutes ago, thenorthremembers said: Pittsburgh is losing to Cleveland this week. Let’s hope so but i doubt it. 1

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 1 hour ago, dave mcbride said: On paper Pittsburgh looks like the best bet, but ... the Bills haven't won in Pittsburgh since 1975, when the Juice ran for 227 yards. The Bills will beat Miami, Denver, and the Jets. One slip up by either Pitt, Baltimore, or Dallas (turnovers, special teams flukes, etc.) and the Bills get to 10. They will not win at NE. Small point of order, but the Bills did win in the playoffs in Pittsburgh right after the Houston comeback game in Jan of 93...but as far as reg season you’re probably right?

No way the Bills go to Foxboro in late December and beat them in a game they'll likely need. I see them beating Denver and the Jets to finish 8-8. Don't think they're beating Miami next week. 1
