Browns, Ravens, Dolphins can beat anyone if they are on.  

 

However, the Browns might be the scariest to me, with the Ravens at home being a close second.

Did you not watch Flacco scrambling throwing across his body? 
 

He looked like a 50 year old Josh Allen

Ravens, Browns……and Miami.  All formidable.  
 

everyone has written off Miami due to past December flops and the fact that we beat them handily week 4.  Their D is much better ones. Losing Phillips hurts but Van Ginkel is even better imo.  He’s a stud.  Their D gets pressure on the QB and they can stop the run. 


KC is KC.  Not the same KC, but I think they’ll be a tough out come playoffs thanks to Spags.  
 

 

I think we could lose to Miami week 18, and lose to Miami in the playoffs, and id still not worry about Miami lol

I think the Browns could win on any field in any weather. And they don’t have the weight of expectations dragging them down. I think the Ravens, Bills, Chiefs would have a lot of pressure to be honest.  Cleveland is playing with house money.

Browns have most all the ingredients you might want:

  • Super strong defense
  • Excellent offensive line
  • Savvy veteran QB experiencing a resurgence
  • One of the top WRs in Cooper
  • Very good running game

 

They haven't faced a murderer's row of opponents lately, but they're thrashing people and really starting to peak at the right time. Of all the teams in the AFC right now, even compared with the Dolphins and Ravens, I think they are going to do some serious damage in the playoffs.

 

Assuming they get their kicking game straightened out...

 

 

I just don't see it with the Browns.

 

Yes Flacco is putting up some silly numbers but look at who they've played...a bunch of bad teams who are going in the wrong direction or have packed it in for the year. Texans also without Stroud who is making his case for MVP as a rookie since he's been out.

 

And quite frankly the only remotely good team they've played during this Flacco thing they lost too (Rams).

 

I honestly won't be surprised if the Browns are one and done in the playoffs since they will have to go on the road against an AFC South team who will likely have their QB healthy (Jags or Texans) unlike the previous matchups.

Not really worried about any of em to be honest. Bills usually play the Ravens pretty good, out of all the others I'd guess the Browns defense might be a bigger threat.

 

But all in all, none really stick out more than another to me

100%. Browns defense is legit.  But I think the Flacco Cinderella story is going to end early in the playoffs.  Not only has he been helped by great field position since taking over, he’s also been incredibly lucky on some of his throws.  This was on full display last night against the Jets.

Based on owner's criminal connections stolen house money.

I disagree, I think Flacco was the perfect fit for their O. A smart veteran who can read defenses. While he has turned the ball over he also has provided leadership and will make the big plays to win the game. I mean they been able win games that got into the 30’s because of him and I dislike Flacco.

Honestly...

 

Maybe Cleveland.

 

Normally I would say Cincy, but since they are dead this year I'm not afraid of anyone.

 

I think we matchup well with Baltimore

 

Don't *really* want to go to Miami in playoffs. Rather play them here.

 

There are no teams I think we can't beat. Most of the matchups I would say bills are better than 50% chance.

 

Sure they could also lose to any team but Buffalo is one of very few teams turning it on at the right time. CLE/BAL/MIA still hot but one of those teams has to lose this week, too.

I don’t think flacco is a long haul answer. 
 

he came in with no film on how he’d be running the offense and just like a backup can often win a few games before coming back to earth- I think the browns offense will too with him

So this thread is a perfect example of over analyzing everything the Bills do/don’t do and just looking at scores and records of other teams. Flacco, nice story but look who they have played. He has more than half of the turnovers Josh had and has only played 5 games. Good defense, no doubt, but they did give up 17 in the first half to the Jets the other night (yes they only gave up 3 after the half)

Dolphins finally beat a team with a winning record. I don’t think that defense is anywhere near as good as they have shown lately (again, look who they have played, specifically the QBs they have played)

 

I get it, we are all Bills fans so naturally we are more invested in them. If you look objectively at the other teams, there’s not a team that should scare you-outside of the Bills having a letdown

The Browns D is elite. 

There O-line is decimated with injuries....yes

Flacco still turns the ball over a ton yes

They have played mostly garbage teams with garbage QBs. LOL...they physically destroyed the 49ers, beat the Ratbirds, Burrow. 

Yes their D is championship level but they have not shown up in a couple games this year yes, and their entire starting secondary was out for a stretch.

 

Browns & Bills are pretty similar.

 

All this Lamar MVP talk will go away when they lose their opening playoff game.
