Buffalo03 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 We haven't been better than 5-2 after 7 games since 1993. Didn't realize this until now. Pretty crazy to think about. We started 7-1 that year. Love this team. Didn't play our best tonight but got the W. Go Bills 4 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Everybody on here would've taken 6-1 with this schedule at the start of the year. I don't think at the Fish would've been the lone loss but we're in great shape. Am worried about are safeties though if Poyer needs surgery. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSBill Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 How far have we come when we win by 10 and don't feel that good about it? In the past, a bad game meant a loss in all kinds of crazy and creative Bills ways (the "Billies" thing). But when you're good, and you may not play your best--even sloppy at times--but still win comfortably by 10. I like this side of the equation. Yes, 6-1 !!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple that with the poor run defense, and that is a bad combination come playoff time. If you have an MVP QB you don’t fall out of contention by losing a safety, even an all pro. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills missed the SB last two seasons primarily due to their D failing against better competiton... I didn’t say it wouldn’t hurt their chances. Being out of contention means pack it in, season’s done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I say they go on a 10 game losing streak. starting in jersey. according to some, they're just not good enough and not deserving of the present 6-1 record. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully just a sprain. Yes. Every team's success hinges on their safeties. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully just a sprain. I can't think of a single team that was "a safety away" from being super bowl caliber. As electric as Poyer/Hyde have been, it's not important enough of a position to rate.

Nextmanup Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 This is sort of the "moving back to the big picture" post...and really this spot on. The disappointment some feel about aspects of the game last night really comes from the fact that we are not just good, but we are awesome, and we were expecting more from last night. The fact that we can play that poorly and do that many things wrong and still beat a team with Aaron Rodgers shows you the talent level of this team. It reminds me of the Rams game with our 4 turnovers and we still pounded the snot out of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 We will be getting White back soon and have to think Beane is working the phones to get safety help. Should be an interesting 24 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 1 minute ago, Gene1973 said: I disagree. To gut that part of the secondary can derail the defensive scheme when playing top tier competition in the playoffs. You should probably just stop watching Bills games, then. It's a mute point, now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 It's hard to believe it's been 30 years since the Bills had this type of record and start. And looking at the rest of the schedule they very well may hit a franchise record for most wins in the regular season surpassing the current franchise high of 13.

Josh Allen is trash and the team only goes as far as Poyer takes us. Edited October 31, 2022 by Dablitzkrieg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
