jahnyc Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 We play Miami twice, the Browns, 49ers, Bengals and Ravens. Our relatively weak remaining schedule makes our 0 and 4 start that much more unfortunate. Trying to be objective, we really should be able to win at least four out of our remaining twelve games. Of course I hope we do better.
BB2004 Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 6-10 or 7-9 can still be realistic, but our team has to give Drew some time to throw.
jahnyc Posted October 16, 2004 Author Posted October 16, 2004 I forgot to include Arizona in the list of winnable games.
todd Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 6-10 or 7-9 can still be realistic, but our team has to give Drew some time to throw. 72006[/snapback] My prediction is that we'll be giving Losman time to throw instead of Drew. He is either going to get hurt because he's been hit so much, or if we keep losing he's going to get benched so we can develop Losman.

Donna-Ho replaces "Shout" with a dub over of Queen's "We are the Champions," with "We are the AssClowns?" ...No time for winners, 'cause we are the assclowns of the NFL... Some here would no doubt be in the stands swaying back and forth, arm-in-arm, and singing loudly, dreaming of his next draft. Go Bills! Go Donna-Ho. Get out of town.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 The Bills NEED to win this weekend's game. If they lose, I'm out of here until next year. IF they DO win however, they should have Milloy, Vincent, and Losman back for the following weekend's game against the Lewis-less Ravens. That will help a lot and hopefully give them something to build upon.
San-O Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 6-10 or 7-9 can still be realistic, but our team has to give Drew some time to throw. 72006[/snapback] You're high. Put down the pipe. The Bills are on a seven game losing streak and are all of the sudden are going to win six or seven of the next 12?
jahnyc Posted October 16, 2004 Author Posted October 16, 2004 The only reason we can possibly go 6 and 10 is because of the poor quality of our opponents. It would not be a sign of an improving team if we win more games than we lose for the rest of the season and I hope they don't try to spin it that way. After four years of building, there is no excuse as to why we should not beat teams like the Cardinals, 49ers, Browns and Bengals. We had an easy schedule this year and it doesn't look like we are going to take advantage of it.
Paco Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 It would not be a sign of an improving team if we win more games than we lose for the rest of the season and I hope they don't try to spin it that way. One could also make the argument that these are the type of games a good team SHOULD win. Much like you heard about the Jets last week. Frankly, I just want two things: A victory against Miami, and the game ending with Bledsoe kneeling to kill the clock. I'll worry about the other games as they approach.
CajunBillsBacker Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 We aren't beating anyone unless we can end the stupid penalties. As long as we keep having a stat of like 12 penalties for almost 100 yards, then we can't win.

The Rams of a few years ago could get away with that sometimes, when they were known as "The Greatest Show On Turf". No chance of anyone mistaking the current Bills offense for them.

I'm sorry the zebras have been very biased against the Bills the whole season (4th and 14 non offensive pass interference). I'm really disgusted that the NFL has not done much about this as bad calls have cost us at least 2 games and .500 record (no holding on a 60+ yard punt return to the 11)
Guest Guest Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 The only reason we can possibly go 6 and 10 is because of the poor quality of our opponents. 72096[/snapback] Typical fan. Where does the poor quality of us figure in?
Paco Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 Even if we do win this game, We will probably lose against the Ravens the following week.... They have two weeks to prepare for us and, Boller is getting a lot of heat up there. 72168[/snapback] And with a lot of good reason. Did you see their 17-14 win over the Redskins? Seven came off a pick returned for a TD and the other was a punt return. He barely got them into field goal range, and a turnover helped there as well. They shut Jamal Lewis down and made Boller throw, which he can't do to well yet. Now you eliminate Jamal Lewis because he's suspended, and you know what you have? The Miami Dolphins. Beat Miami. Beat Ravens. Same thing.
Thurman's Helmet Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 Start by winning one game. As a Red Sox fan, it would be foolish and presumptuous of me to start thinking about Games 5, 6 & 7. It all has to start with ONE win and you go from there. hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies. - Andy Dufresne
