Are people really that unhappy with our 4-2 Bills?

[stinky finger]

Gotta love when a thread such as this goes absolutely off the rails in record time.

 

Poor awareness.

The season is more than just the last game or two.

 

Considering they're #3 in DVOA and at least Top 5 in every analytical ranking makes it pretty loud and clear that the Bills are legit Super Bowl contenders in 2023.

 

No offense but your post is ridiculous.

Can you tell us again how legit the Bills are?😂 

 

How “ridiculous” was my post again?

You going to do this after every loss? Get a life.

My post not looking so "ridiculous" now, is it?

I would assume people are more unhappy about the 5-4 Bills right now than they were with the 4-2 Bills

I think the people who were possibly unhappy at 4-2 are just as unhappy at 5-4 due to the shortcomings that were hinted at while sitting at 4-2 (slow starts on O, disappearing O for most of the game, poor coaching, poor gameplanning, etc.).

DVOA only means so much. Why not look at this stat. 

 

IMO successful drive percentage means more than DVOA or most other analytical stat. Those 3 blowout wins versus Vegas, Washington and Miami inflate those numbers.

No, it still is. But not as ridiculous as saving my reply as a bookmark and bumping it after every Bills loss.

So, to you, the Bills are still "legit" SB contenders.  Welp, you gotta stand for something, I guess.

I think the Bills have some real problems. But can’t wait to see how this thread’s argument develops if we win the next 2 and are sitting at a paper tigery 7-4 record.

I’m shocked to see that the problems we had a month ago are still problems today. 
 

I’m sure it’ll all be fixed in no time.

Not a problem, barely an inconvenience. I mean, they are “legit” SB contenders. 😂

I have zero issue with being positive about the team and rooting for the players on it.  At the time this thread was started I was way more optimistic than I am now.  So I dont see what the problem with the OP is.  I got a way bigger problem with so called fans calling every player trash during 2nd Q.

Now I’m curious to see what happens to this thread if the Bills right the ship and dominate late like they usually do lol

Just say "I was wrong" and get it over with already... or face the bumping of this thread, I'm afraid.

Not sure he’s wrong. ‘Legit’ is very subjective.

If legit is being average with above average talent, then yes, legit is correct.... but yeah, somehow I don't think that is our goal!

If you list the current Bills starters, factoring in the injuries, on both sides of the ball, I don’t actually think you’d see “above average talent”. They have a top end QB, but the rest of the team is decidedly average right now, IMO.
