cage Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 CBS Sports is doing a game by game prediction for each team. In this one the Bills end up 9-7 as a Wild Card team. They start strong, but then lose 4 of the last 5 at at the end of the season. Its a long season, but I think they're better than this. I don't buy the 4 game losing streak at the end and expect they'll be at least 10-6. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/bills-2020-schedule-predicting-every-game-week-by-week-odds-matchups-projections/ 1
RalphWilson'sNewWar Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Thank you for posting this. When I did my knee jerk initial prediction on the season I too had the 4 game losing streak at the end. Which was met with many “fun” reactions i haven’t seen anyone else agree with that until this CBS post.
JMF2006 Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 We beat the Steelers and the Donkies to go 11-5 and win the division. 1
machine gun kelly Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 I don’t see us losing to both the Broncos and Steelers, but it will be tough to beat the Chiefs. I agree with the supposition of 10-6 or a stretch 11-5. I still hold we will win the AFCE. Why so many analysts are still picking the Patriots is beyond me. BB is not the evil Emperor from Star Wars, lost three key defensive players, Brady, and Gronk. I know Gronk wasn’t playing last year, but he still will most likely help the Bucs. We have a chance to sweep the Cheats for the first time in over 20 years. 5
Buffalo Boy Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 CRAP!!!! We aren’t losing to the Raiders, Titans, Seahawks or Stillers!!!! We will be in the AFC Championship game at a bare minimum!!!! SHOT CALLED?

With this staff, I’d say it’s wildly unlikely. 2 2

Got to agree. This staff with this talent isn’t losing more than two games in a row. I also don’t that there are that many teams better than the Bills. This staff will take a loss to an inferior team and use it as motivation to refocus the talent assembled.

I'll just go out on a limb and say no chance they have a 4 game losing streak. don't worry, I'm not a gloat so I wont come back with an I told you so....

If I was going to gloat about being right...there was the past 20 years of opportunities. Lol. But no. Gloating over Record Predictions...no way. It's just a fun guessing/predicting game. 3 1

gjv001 Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 I don't think a wildcard team will come out of the AFC East this year. However, based on the AFC East schedule this season, a record of 9 and 7 will probably win the Division. 1
Stank_Nasty Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) 9-7 with what the schedule looks like on paper for the bills, and the rest of the division, could mean we have a better team than last year, still win the division and be better set up for a playoff run than last years 10-6 squad. that being said.... 9-7 would be a bit disappointing Edited May 31, 2020 by Stank_Nasty 2 1

To me it felt like you were gloating about it
Doc Brown Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Last year we had the benefit of flying under the radar, the easiest schedule I've ever seen, and a very healthy roster throughout the season for the most part. I don't think we get any of those breaks this season. Even with the added talent a 9-7 record wouldn't surprise me.

BB, I like the optimism, but the Hawks always seems to put together a nice team, and if the Titans play like they did at the end of the season, that one is possible too. I think it was Marietta at the helm when they played us and they weren’t running the heck out of Henry in the early part of last year. I’m with you for sure on the Steelers and Raiders, although Big Ben is most likely back. They were a different team without him when we beat them. I still think we’ll beat them though. 1
John from Riverside Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 I still say we are a 10 and 6 team and win the AFC East but It is a BETTER 10 and 6 team. The team nobody wants to play in the playoffs....the team that is battle tested by the tougher schedule and we progress further I think we can make it all the way to the AFC Championship game.....and if we can do that we are a stones throw away from the big one
Paup 1995MVP Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 With all the moves we made and we go 9-7? That is terrible. Losing to SF by 18 and Pittsburgh by 13 at home? That is ridiculous. With this roster we should have a shot at 12-4. I expect a big leap forward from JA this year. I expect the offense to be nite and day from last year. An improved Josh Allen. Stefan Diggs. Zack Moss, and an improved O line. And we will finally have a kicker who can bang them thru w consistency from between 55 and 60. This is our year. 12-4 and playing in the AFC Championship at a minimum.
