Bills team and individual records that could fall this year......

[JoeF]

Trying to pass the time for the next 48 hours - I started paging through the Bills all time team and individual records at this site:

https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/buf/index.htm

 

Some team and individual records I could see falling this year:

 

57 sack season record from 2013 is in danger (16 game season asterisk)

727 yards receiving by a tight end (16 game season asterisk)

4407 passing yards in a season (Josh breaks his own record with a 16 game season asterisk)

36 Interceptions in season (set in a 14 game season in 1962) 

 

These would be my top 4 from looking at the team and individual records.  Curious if anyone else had a record or two they think this year's team or an individual could challenge.

Nice topic Joe!!!

 

- Allen’s 37 passing TDs

- Allen’s 284 YPG (similar to your passing yards stat)

- Bass longest FG in franchise history (don’t know the number but it is in jeopardy)

- Bass 141 points in a season

- MAYBE Bill Brooks 11 TD receptions is in jeopardy

[Dr.Sack]

Largest point differential. Set by ‘21 Bills. 
 

Least amount of losses: 2. Set by ‘64 championship team. *14 games. 
 

Points against 154. Set by ‘82 Bills. *9 games strike year. 
 

23 TDs total by one player. Set by OJ in ‘75.

11 TDs receiving. Set by Bill Brooks ‘95.

Dr. Sack, I love the points against one. That is awesome.

The receiving TD mark is toast.

Yep, Gabe should break it by Week 15.

I confess that I am surprised to learn that the most TDs Bills ever got out of a single receiver, ever, was only 11.  Would sure like to see that record fall - and hopefully by a lot.

Good call on breaking 11 receiving TDs. Gabe Davis is a good bet. I like Knox for TE yards record too, mentioned by OP

No way that’s ever getting broken.

 

I think the least amount of punts (41) record gets snapped (set 2 years ago…I believe we will definitely at least do it for the first 16 game span)

[Ethan in Cleveland]

Knox first Bills' TE to ever go to a ProBowl

Knox will break TE yards 

I could see the WR TD mark being surpassed as well.

Curious who you think could break this?  Next closest to OJ was Cookie Gilchrist with 15.  Both OJ and Cookie did so in only 14 games!   Can't see OJ's 1975 record ever being broken.

Uhhh, you don't need an asterisk for that one it ain't happening.

 

TE one, maybe.

I'd be surprised if this isn't tied or broken with Diggs having 10 and Knox 9 last year.  Gabe Davis could easily break it in an expanded role. Heck, he had 5 in two playoff games last year.

Consecutive wins… 20

NUmber of Lombardi Trophies: 0 

 

This will change this year

[mushypeaches]

We're never coming close to the team INT record... 

 

Those records all come from days when QB's commonly had more INT's than TD's on the season.  It's an entirely different game now

Gabe will grab 24 and break OJs club total TD record & the NFL single season receiving record set by Moss in 2007.

I can't see his 1973 record 2,003 rushing yards in 14 games ever being broken by a Bill or non Bill. At least not in today's passing first league.

I'll chime in and just say I'll be surprised if it happens this season.  The Bills have too many good skill position players, the ball is going to get spread around a lot.
