Huuuge Bills Posted April 20, 2008 Posted April 20, 2008 Well to be fair, he has the same chance as being right as anybody else. And given our recent history, can you blame him? FWIW I think well go 10-6 with an outside chance at 11-5 if the draft goes well/ we stay healthy.
Ozymandius Posted April 20, 2008 Posted April 20, 2008 Yeah, it'd really be shocking if this team went 7-9 The writer also said 11-5 was an optimistic possibility: http://www.democratandchronicle.com/apps/p.../804200331/tbd/ The bottom line is, who cares?
keepthefaith Posted April 20, 2008 Posted April 20, 2008 he picked us to lose against the rams,the jets once,lose against Cleveland and our final record will be 7-9........WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 7-9 or 8-8 looks about right to me. This team has a long way to go, but is moving forward talent-wise.
Huuuge Bills Posted April 20, 2008 Posted April 20, 2008 7-9 or 8-8 looks about right to me. This team has a long way to go, but is moving forward talent-wise. No Poz, no K. Simpson, no Stroud, No S. Johnson, no W. James, no K. Mitchell, none of this years draft picks, half a season of JP starting, half a season of Trent as a rookie, 17 players on IR, a harder schedule, Steve Fairchilds playcalling, A-Train getting playing time, a ton of injuries that didn't land guys on IR, Ellison starting, and losing a few games on lucky last second plays got us 7-9 last year. Just wondering why we wouldn't improve after all of that?
marauderswr80 Posted April 20, 2008 Posted April 20, 2008 Who cares...........why get bent outta shape over it. Games are played on the field not on paper.

Just wondering why we wouldn't improve after all of that? 1. I think the Bills schedule is tougher this year than last. A lot of the "iffy" teams the Bills play this year will likely be improved. The road schedule won't be easy and some of the home games are against tougher opponents. 2. It could take some time for the newer and younger talent to put it all together. POZ is nearly a rookie still. Same with Trent. 3. I don't see the exit of Fairchild as a big plus. The Bills have a rookie OC and a head coach that is not known for his offenses. Jauron IMO could have the Patriot's offense personnel-wise and finish in the middle of the pack in production.

Jauron IMO could have the Patriot's offense personnel-wise and finish in the middle of the pack in production. I agree with you. I think the big question is if Fairchild was responsible for that CRAPPY offense, or was he following Jaurons directive to play it close to the bone.
RayFinkle Posted April 20, 2008 Posted April 20, 2008 he picked us to lose against the rams,the jets once,lose against Cleveland and our final record will be 7-9........WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Unfortunately the Bills have blown ass and missed the playoffs for a decade. Why the outrage over a 7-9 prediction?
