ddaryl Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) I still have concerns about enough things and those concerns won't be relieved till mid Novemeber. Does Dorsey improve and draw up some the Xs and Os to take advantage of the teams additions, and make the adjustments as the season wears on Does Kincaid provide the safety valve Allen is missing since Beasley 1st years here Is our OL improved enough from last year Is our D stil capable of stopping good teams with a new MLB and no Von Miller to start the season By no means is betting the Bills win total over or under equal a slam dunk IMO.

Kirby Jackson Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I’m betting an uncomfortable amount of money on the Bills over 10.5. If healthy, 12-5 is the floor. Assuming that it isn’t like -145 or something crazy. I am going to bet 1/2 the cost of a Super Bowl trip. If the Bills go, I will basically go for 1/2 price (or less if I win tickets in the lottery or through some connections). If they don’t go, it will roughly cover the cost of my seats next season.

Gregg Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 11 hours ago, Einstein said: I wouldn’t touch this with a ten foot pole. The Bills schedule is incredibly tough (at least based on last years teams). Our division alone is capable of handing us 3 or 4 losses. My guess with the division is 4-2. Split MIA, NYJ, sweep NE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Just looked at the opponents for Bills, Chiefs and Bengals. Bengals schedule is noticeably weaker than the Bills and Chiefs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the Ravens can challenge the Bengals for the division because I can't see the Steelers or Browns winning it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 If a team adds AB, does that team ➕ or ➖ projected wins? 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 12 hours ago, Alphadawg7 said: I think you underestimate just how strong our schedule is. I’m optimistic we will win 11-13 games still, but it’s not the lock you think it is. AFCE is much tougher with Rodgers in it. But we also play the AFC West, NFC East which has both Super Bowl teams in them, and we play Cincy who we didn’t look competitive against in the shortened game or playoff game. I also think that what gets baked into these numbers is the not-infinitesimal chance that a key player can go down for any team. The Niners were expected to win probably 12 games in 2020 but won only 4 because of injuries. That can happen to any team. Allen could go down, for instance, and if he does, the Bills will be f**ked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generic_Bills_Fan Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) 12 hours ago, newcam2012 said: The 49er system doesn't really require a top notch QB especially in the regular season. Their defense is elite and they have an innovative offensive minded coach. The Bills are no lock to win 11 or 12 games. Their division competition is obviously very tough. Not a lot of separation between the Jets and Miami. NE seems to be lagging behind quite a bit. Also, the Bills schedule looks pretty tough on paper. I'm staying away from betting over or under. I think Vegas has it just about right. I think the Chiefs win 12 games so long as Mahomes is healthy. The division is tough but we underperformed in the division last year I’d say. the division record from last year will likely remain the same. Also last years schedule looked very difficult on paper going into the season and it never shakes out the way you think it’s gonna.

Alpha, I absolutely love the Bills...AND 11-6 is real and not pessimistic for 2023. Two things can be true at once. I also think by the end of the year, like in 2021, this team could be locked in and potentially go far. However, at Cincy, Philly and KC, plus we split with divisional rivals who are both definitely better than they were in 2022, plus the normal phantom home loss (Cowboys? Jags who beat us when they were bad?) and all this adds up to 11-6 being a possibility. Although I am not a betting man (albeit I should have put money down that Picard Season 3 was going to be way better than the first two @Ridgewaycynic2013 with Terry Matalas at the helm) I will not jump on anyone that takes the under on 11.5.

DabillsDaBillsDaBills Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 There's a reason only 5 teams have a line at 10.5 or higher. All it takes to hit the under is one key injury, one bad stretch of games, or some unlucky bounces in close games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They play in a terrible division and get to play the terrible afc south. The saints are going to be one of those teams this year that becomes a story. I think they have enough talent to win 5 games in their division and 3 against the afc south. They play the bears and packers. The bears are much improved but playing at New Orleans gives them an advantage. Just seems like they are going to be a sleeper team to me, win 10 games and the south and host a playoff game.

BillsSbSoon Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) Saints eagles overs. I’m not a big carr fan at all but if he plays well that is a really sneaky over. That division is awful.
