Real McClappy Posted November 17, 2020 Posted November 17, 2020 But..... The point differential guys and wins by more than 10 points.
colin Posted November 17, 2020 Posted November 17, 2020 wait, does this mean that the signature wins that were missing in mcclappy's career have been pouring in all year? assuming we can beat up on the weak sisters of the poor and new england, SF, PITTS, and MIAMI are gonna be just huge games. also, if we get hot or the fish get cold, that week 17 game may not matter anyhow, so really SF and PITTS coming up quickly are gonna answer all the questions we have coming off this bitter loss into the BYE. gonna be some pretty exciting football into Dec for bills fans, you love to see it.

Plus 2 of the Bills wins came against the Jets which I believe negates any wins against teams with a winning record. Throw in the fact that they beat the Patriots without Tom Brady so that doesn’t really count, and essentially you have an 0-10 team here And two wins came against the NFC. And as we all know they are basically losses.
Jobot Posted November 17, 2020 Posted November 17, 2020 Does this record update week to week as other team's 'winning record' may change?

I think it was perfectly possible to have a pulse on who the good teams are before week 1. There is always a surprise or two - San Fran's injury crisis for example - but it was possible to know the Bills schedule was tough IMO. And they have won 7 of their first 10 on that tough schedule. If anyone honestly thinks that the Rams, the Dolphins, the Raiders or the Seahawks are finishing below .500 when all is said and done they can come into this thread and stick their neck out and say it. Those 4 teams are at absolute worst 8 win teams. I suspect all four will finish at least one game above .500. 1

Only two of 14 other teams have as many as three wins, and only one other team has played as many as five such games. Miami - 2-2 Pittsburgh - 3-0 Baltimore - 2-2 Cleveland - 1-3 Indianapolis - 1-2 Tennessee - 1-2 Kansas City - 2-1 Las Vegas - 3-2 Green Bay - 1-1 New Orleans - 2-2 Tampa Bay - 2-2 Seattle - 1-3 Arizona - 2-1 Los Angeles - 1-2 Dont share with Matt Fairburn...he’ll try digging out more facts to prove that McDermott is a bad coach

njbuff Posted November 17, 2020 Posted November 17, 2020 Imagine if the Bills can actually play a consistent 60 minute game to boot. The Bills seem to do enough to keep themselves and their opponents in the game until the end and the Bills find a way to pull it out 70% of the time no matter how well or how poorly they have played up until the end of games. A 7-3 record sounds about right.

Haha no... It's useless statistic because there are an infinite number of variables happening to every team throughout the season. If you don't understand how that could impact the basis of the statistic, then you won't get it, which is fine. But if it makes you sleep better at night, by all means, this TOTALLY means Bills will be in the super bowl.

And the Cheats will probably be the toughest of these. absolutely have to win the next 2 games to keep pace with the rest of the top afc teams. 9-3 sounds good

2003Contenders Posted November 18, 2020 Posted November 18, 2020 Battle-tested for sure. I would, however, caution everyone not to overlook some of the remaining teams on the schedule with losing records. For example, the Chargers are much better than their record would suggest. They have been in most every game and have had a very difficult schedule.

This has to get easier in the final run...right? Its a week to week league. Even the Jets have started looking more competent.
CSBill Posted November 19, 2020 Posted November 19, 2020 Interesting. Thanks for the research TS. All points to good things ahead: Chargers, 49ers, Broncos, Pats, Fish, all winnable games if we don't drop a turd. And a win versus the Steelers would put us into the "best AFC team" discussion. Of course, the most important are the last two games: Pats and Fish = Win them, win the division (with another win or two to go with them)!
