NoHuddleKelly12 Posted May 18, 2020 Posted May 18, 2020 He's not wrong of course. Brady or not, this feels like the breakout year we've been building towards since McBeane got here. Year 3, 2nd full, for Allen--this bodes well for us along with the continuity in both coaching and front office for this regime. Frankly I'd be disappointed in anything less than 11-5 regular season, winning the East and getting to the AFC title game. On 5/18/2020 at 4:03 PM, Gugny said: Winning the division can't be the goal.

Happy Posted May 18, 2020 Posted May 18, 2020 Have to agree with Jim Kelly; winning the division and beating NE is a 'must do' this year. I don't think we're ready to win the SB, or even get to it at this particular point. They have to prove they can easily win the division for one, and two, the Bills have to prove they can beat KC and Balt. This year should provide some indication of the two. 1 1
RiotAct Posted May 18, 2020 Posted May 18, 2020 Win the division AND at least one postseason game, I say. 5

Expand And yet we haven't won the division or even a playoff game for decades. So no, I disagree. The first step should be winning the division and a playoff game and then we go from there. Obviously the Superbowl is always the goal, but can we realistically expect this team who hasn't won a playoff game to go all the way to the Superbowl? Anyone who thinks we have a Superbowl caliber team right now is wrong.

Expand We have teams every year with WAY more postseason experience and lots of postseason wins and elite QB's who fail to make it to the Superbowl (New Orleans, Seattle, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, etc.). I just don't see a path to the Superbowl even if Allen steps up. But I suppose crazy things happen sometimes.

Like you have to win and then lose a playoff game first before going to the Super Bowl? Expand That's what usually happens. You don't usually have a team that hasn't won a playoff game in more than 20 years go directly to the super bowl. Obviously I want them to, but I don't think it's realistic even slightly.
LabattBlue Posted May 18, 2020 Posted May 18, 2020 I've been waiting for weeks to know what Jim Kelly's thoughts are on this. [/sarcasm off] 1

Expand It has nothing to do with moral victories or what we are happy with. It's just being realistic. I would be very happy if the Bills go to the Superbowl and unhappy if they don't. But there is nothing to support a claim that they are a Superbowl caliber team. Off-season hype isn't tangible evidence.

They nearly won a Super bowl in 2019 with a 13-3 regular season record to boot. It happens all the time. 3
