OutOfBubbleGum Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) Call me out as being wrong but the Bills to be considered a contender have to beat the losing record Broncos and the winning record Cowboys. If they can't beat both and they make it to the playoffs, then they are done quicker than tables being smashed by Buffalo tailgaters. Edited November 18, 2019 by OutOfBubbleGum
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 I think people are just not seeing this Cowboy game for what it is. I am coming around on thinking the Bills can maybe beat Pit in Pit and I know it sounds crazy but...I think the Ravens game isn’t a sure loss. But I think that Cowboy game is all but a certainty. We are guna get blasted. Beat Denver and then go from there. But the least likely win on the schedule IMO is ; Short week, AT Dallas on thanksgiving. I think we lose that by 25+ 3 1
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 I have a good feeling about the Dallas game. Don't know if we will win but I think it's coming down to the wire. I think we will be able to move the ball on them like we do when we play Miami. Should be an exciting game. Not the end of the world if we lose since I rather steal a victory against an AFC opponent like the Ravens or Patriots. 2

I have the exact opposite feeling. Dallas doesn't seem to have a good defense. And I see Josh Allen playing fearless on a big stage. I think we move the ball on them. Problem is, I think they move the ball on us too. It feels like a first team to 28-30 wins type of game. 1

If the Bills beat the Broncos and go 8-3 and lose to the Cowboys and go 8-4 their season is over? 1 4

I think that game just is a deer in the headlights day for us and we just take the out of conference loss on the chin. I’d love to be wrong but I’m certainly not expecting to

Dallas actually has a good defense. They are 7th in yards and 6th in points. 1
Livinginthepast Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 The Dallas game will be the ultimate statement game for Bills season and perhaps Allen's career. Get annihilated like the last thanksgiving game in Detroit and the critics will write us off as frauds. But win against the Cowboys in front of that national audience especially if Josh can finally put it all together and get 300 yards plus and you have a springboard to another level. 1 1 1
Rigotz Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 How about if the Bills win their next game they might make playoffs and if they don’t they probably won’t? Why does it have to be all this “contender” BS. They are not a contender and not built to be yet. Chill out. 2

They just gave up 28 to Kirk "terrible in prime time" Cousins in their last home game. They did hold the Eagles to 10 in their home game before that one but gave up 34 to the Packers in the home game before that one. I don't really see a reliable trend that suggests their defense plays better at home then on the road. And likewise our offense does not seem to be any worst on the road vs @ home. I expect a close game for those reasons. 1

I also really hate it when people say this. He got 300 yards TODAY. Why do rushing yards not count as yards? They are literally the same thing. 5

I think they are trending down. Since their 3-0 start. Just looking at the raw stats they seem to be all over the place but down some since their 3-0 start. Similar to our defense. 1
Aussie Joe Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 Beat the Ravens or New England and then we will talk about them being a contender... 2

Did you watch the Broncos/Vikings game earlier? Did you watch the Browns/Steelers game on Thursday? We're not that far off. The way we lost to the Patriots (blocked punt) and the Browns (two missed FGs) it's obvious to me that we are not the pretender you think we may be. I REFUSE to overreact to a 7-3 season. Our schedule is a tough one in the second half... and for me, winning 7 games at this point IS GRAVY. We're improving. Calm the F down, people. 5

clearwater cadet Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 I dont think we match up well with dallas. I have watched the cowboys this year but from what I understand dallas strengths are a good o line, running game, and pass rush. I cant see the bills hanging that well. 1

Also you are going to have a few extra days of prep that week. The bills might be able to dial up something to hang with them. That game being at home is big. In Baltimore I’d figure it’s a definite loss. Late in the year in buffalo with our crowd and big stakes. Never know 1
