Poll - Are you rooting for the Colts to win or lose against the Pats

[D. L. Hot-Flamethrower]

If the Bills win out, including beating the Pats, we still can win division, but likely only with a Colts win.

Don't forget about Miami.

 

They always give NE a hard time - even when NE was a top team.

No, doesn't mean much. 9% is not hardly any difference and certainly nothing to make me root for a division rival. You still play for the division , obviously

The division is more important as winning guarantees a spot in the playoffs, so obviously colts win is better.

How do we NOT?

 

They have superior coaching.  Teams that run the ball effectively, control our defense, and they run the ball tremendously.  They dared us to beat them with the pass game, our best attribute,  and we couldn't.  In game adjustments are our downfall and their strength.

Since I have had the same motto every season for the last 21 years,”the Patriots can go and copulate with themselves”, I think I’ll stick with it. The Patriots can go copulate with themselves.

Not really, checkout our chances of winning the division with/without a Colts win.

If the Colts win and then the Bills lose to New England the Bills chances of making the playoffs go down substantially. The Colts win will knock the Bills out of one of the wildcard spots. Be careful what you ask for. 

 

The goal is to get to the top...playing the “if we lose to New England” game gives you a 7 loss team with 2 of those to N.E. and a road wild card game. You have to win at N.E. eventually, so do it next week.

We were totally taken out of our element in the infamous wind game. Even with all of that, we almost won. Put us in a place where weather isn’t as much of a factor and I think we win.

 

We are a much better team than the Patriots. And unlike some think, Mac Jones isn’t the second coming of Brady. He’s closer to becoming the second coming of Chad Pennington than Brady.

 

They are the better team.  Saying we are is fantasy.  They were in the same elements and clowned us, on purpose,  with a historical running to passing ratio.

 

I'm not saying we can't beat them but to say we have a great chance is wishful.

Well, the historic running/passing ratio was because their QB has a noodle arm, and we couldn't score quickly because of the weather. Let's see if they can replicate it without that wind.

Rooting for the Colts.  Bills control their own destiny.  Screw the Pats. There is only one scenario that I would ever root for the Pats.  Thats if it was the final week of the season and the only way the Bills get in the playoffs is for the Pats to beat whatever team it is they are playing in the final week.   Other than that... go any team playing the Pats.

Of my very many years as a Bills fan and interacting with countless other Bills fans, attending games etc, not once have I ever came across any Bills fans that would ever root for a division rival....now today within the past few hours there are 13 according to the poll as of now LOL....

 

Too many honestly and the Forefathers of the Bills would be ashamed....

Isn’t it interesting?

 

This is one of the reasons I started the thread. I kept hearing rumblings during the week of people saying that they’re hoping the Colts lose or wondering if they should hope that the Colts lose.

 

As of me typing, the people rooting for the Colts to lose or who are undecided is close to 40 people.

Look for those crooked refs to throw the flags against the Colts all game. The NFL wants the Patriots vs. Bucs Super Bowl at all cost. BARF!!

If it happens to play out this way and end up against Colts, then that would probably mean Bills would be on a 4 game win streak. And I would certainly hope they learned from their mistakes from last game against Colts, also hopefully will have OL at full strength..

Will a full strength Bills Oline be enough to slow down or contain the Colts run game?

Bill knew exactly what to do in that weather.  He'll have another plan in the next one.  I sense no plan when we play.  What was our game plan for them?  

 

Did you like how we prepared for Tampa?  We have a great QB and a coaching staff that gets embarrassed against better coached teams.  That's been proven.

[without a drought]

Root for the Patriots, that's just gross.

[rayray808]

Colts up 14-0 and flying around... so let me see if I got this correct:

 

Colts win tonight and we go 4-0 = Division champs and a 2-4 seed. Home playoff game round one.

 

Colts win tonight and we go 3-1 (losing to Pats) = potentially the 7 seed but we would need help

 

Colts win tonight and we go 3-1 (losing to someone else but beating Pats) = would depend on Pats record

 

Colts win tonight and we go 2-2 = no playoffs

Are you really confident the Bills can go into a cold Foxboro Gillette Staduim and beat the Patriots? Sure the Bills can win but they certainly will be under dogs. I don't understand how we Bills fans can be confident going into the game. Hopeful yes...i have little confidence that our coaching staff can match the Patriots coaching staff. Allen needs to be Superman for the Bills to win. He certainly is capable of wearing the cape. We will see soon enough. First, let's take care of business vs Carolina. 

I’m not going to lie I’m not to confident in Buffalo right now, but this is my team and football, so yea I’m like bring on NE if we lose that’s how it is , but I will be pumped for the game. And really after everything that’s happened this year if the bills can’t pull off a win then so be it.
