Freak-O Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 23 minutes ago, buffblue said: Wanted to see what the level of concern is for our Bills after the tough loss in Miami. Regardless of how you view Tua and the Dolphins, it seems likely that they will control 1st place in the AFC East for the foreseeable future. I am as optimistic as any about about our chances this year; however, I think most would agree that reaching our ultimate Super Bowl goal this year will be impacted by our ability to secure the #1 seed in the AFC. Miami's upcoming schedule: @Cin @NYJ Min Pit @Det @Chi Cle Bye Hou With Miami now essentially having a 2 game lead with the tiebreaker, our injury situation, and difficult next 4 games, how confident are you in Buffalo regaining control in the AFC East (and competing in the home field race)? I think today clearly demonstrated we are superior to the Dolphins, but sometimes the best team does not always prevail. Thoughts? Go Bills! In the odd game, no, but over a long season the better team usually finish first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So being 2-0 is nothing at this point Well, even if we win the rematch (which I expect), do you see Miami losing to the Jets or Patriots? Just beating Miami in Buffalo will not be enough - we may HAVE to sweep the Jets and Pats just to match Miami's 5-1 division record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Didn't worry about this last year after the wind game I sure as ***t am not going to worry about in week 3, sitting here at 2-1 and knowing when not missing half the roster with injury that we're still the best team in the league.

Not trying to be an alarmist because I believe in this Bills team. But the loss today means the division race is going to be a dogfight Edited September 25, 2022 by buffblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffblue Posted September 25, 2022 Author Share Posted September 25, 2022 Just now, Warcodered said: That would be us. I agree. But even if that happens, I easily see a scenario where we split 1-1 and both teams are 5-1 in division. Then it comes down to AFC record, common games, etc. Just pisses me off that the injury luck that befell us today could not have waited one more frickin week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 This is definitely a game that will be pointed at, if the Bills miss home field advantage by one game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think today clearly demonstrated we are superior to the Dolphins, but sometimes the best team does not always prevail. Thoughts? Go Bills! Very confident. The Dolphins are an improving team, but Dolphins don't do well in the cold. On a frozen windy December in Buffalo, the Bills should win handily which will negate today's game. None of the other leading contenders in the AFC look like world beaters, so the Bills still look good for the number one seed. But then, we're only three weeks into the season.

Big Blitz Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Who had the Chargers losing by 3 TDs vs Jacksonville going into the 4th quarter? It's a loooooong season folks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
