Who doesn't think this team is good enough to go 5-0 down the stretch?

Yes, that is a data point, but if you've watched the Chiefs over the last few years including a couple super bowl wins, they're pretty good at getting a stop when needed in Q4 whereas the Bills are decidedly not.   Hell, our D couldn't stop KC with 13 effing seconds left, you can't deny that reality. That's why we either blow teams out or lose close games.

 

True but in reality they couldn't stop us either so you kinda detract from your point by posting that.

It is highly possible no NFL team wins five in a row during the reminder of the 2023 season. 

[Richard Noggin]

Was hoping this was a poll. 

 

Hypothetically, the Bills should be good enough to go on a late-season run. They've done it before, and coincidently, immediately following an overtime loss in which they were very competitive against a strong NFC team. 

 

But this year feels a little different innit? The team has NOT shown any capacity for consistent winning football. Those injuries in London still loom large. And with McDerp not giving them late-half and OT advantages, I just don't see some kind of 5-game run in the works.

I think they will do it. I don’t think the Chiefs are that great. We’ve beaten better Chiefs teams in KC. Dallas is definitely not great. We can beat them in OP. The final 3 are all very winnable. If it’s winning in against Miami, we are not losing. If they play like they did against Philadelphia, on offense with even reffing they will win all five games. I think they dig deep, and they go into refuse to lose mode, and they went out. Just my hunch on this but I feel like it’s very doable.

Its not that the Team (Players) arent good enough. Coaching is the problem.

Maybe you're right I can't even remember who won that game

[Radar]

Teams not as good as many fans thought. And that was before injuries. They're a good to very good team without the injuries but in my opinion  not Super Bowl good. Not endorsing the coaching but to blame it all on coaching would be a mistake. Still look more at the GM and our cap issues being overrated by many as a GM. He's not terrible but he's not great either.

Minus a couple all-pros on defense out for the year and Von being a nonfiction and Jones'absence and we'd have a chance. I think 3 or 4 wins is more realistic and a long playoff run is out of the question. I'm ready to start looking at Gabe's replacement in the next draft.

As far as McDermott goes, they said much the same about Andt Reid in Philly. He may have his shortcomings, but so does Bellechick and he's won 6 SB's. I'm not ready to give up on him yet.

Hypothetically how many years in a row of not making the playoffs would you take with McDermott as HC before you'd consider replacing him?

Allen is not the coach, gut feeling would be win Chiefs, Cowboys then lost in bizarre fashion either the Patriots or Chargers game. The first comment regarding consistency is really it.   

[Belgium_Bill]

Of course this team is good enough, but it won't happen, not under this head coach anyway.

Absolutely anything is possible! Including losing to the Rodgers-less Jets, Mac Jones Pats and old Russ Broncos. 

[Ga boy]

We’ll win out!!  Our boyz are having fun again.  The leash is taken off JA17 to run again.  They should be in 4 downs mentality once across the 50.  How can any of these 5 teams stop Allen, Diggs, Cook, Kincaid, Davis, Shakir, Murray, and maybe Knox.  Think about it.  It’s gonna be fun!!

[JoshAllin]

This might be good for the team, treat the next 5 as playoffs/sudden death games, win or your out. And maybe they can finally learn some consistency, to the playoffs otherwise no point

And Andy Reid never had JA in Philly.  He had very good QB's and it was reflected in very good records.  As soon as he got Mahomes he got them over the top.

I'm only reacting to the image here. I can't agree fully with it because Josh just played a freeking awesome game and coaching, Refs, drops and miscommunication lost this game.

We can run the table. I don't think we need to though. 4/5 gets us in. My dream is a rematch with the Eagles in the SB. No rain, Hopefully no crap refs, in a dome. We win! Let's GO BUFFALO!!!

stats don’t lie but luck is involved and we have been the most unlucky team doing the right things all year 

 

I think after the bye this changes and we run the table 

 

could be magical
