    Your prediction for the Bills 2006 Season - What will the record be?

    I am starting to think about this. WGR radio this morning actually broke down the Bills position by position and I have to agree there are some upgrades over last year.

    QB - Losman is better. Upgrade
    RB - Willis is lighter. Upgrade
    OL - 5 real starters. Upgrade
    TE - Looks like involvement - Upgrade
    WR - No Moulds; No #2 - Downgrade
    DL - Downgrade
    LB - Upgrade
    DB - Downgrade
    Coaching - Upgrade
    Schedule - Upgrade

    Based on a total of 7-3 that the Bills have upgraded the team I got to go with 8-8....what says you? Feel free to indicate if there has been an upgrade/downgrade at these positions.




    For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.

    realistically with the schedule.... 8-8 is very much in reach

    injuries or things that may hamper some development can hinder things... 6-10


    my gut feeling is right in the middle 7-9

      I don't get why DB is a downgrade. Whitner, while inexperienced, has got to be better than a turtle-slow, aging Milloy. Plus, we have a couple of free safeties in Baker and Simpson who can come in and play for the aging Vincent. Our nickel and dime CBs - Greer and King - have another year's experience.

      At any rate, I'm homeristically hoping for 10-6, but would be VERY happy with 8-8.
      Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

        Not to mention Whitner can actually hit.

        I'm sticking with 7-9, with most of the wins coming in Nov and Dec.

                12-4 with the Bills going into the playoffs on a 7 game winning streak! Will lose AFC championship at INDY!

                  i still think 5-11... with a lot of close losses.

                    How is the DBs a downgrade? We added a top 10 pick at safety and kept both CBs and added depth in the draft.

                      I dont see DB being a downgrade, but i still think we got a shot at 8-8

                        I think the backfield is about the same.... maybe a tad better actually.

                        But how is the DL a downgrade? Last year was as bad as it gets. We lost Sam Adams (but how many games did he play last year?). Plus we added Triplett (not to mention Kyle Williams and McCargo).

                          my bet is on a 9 and 7 season and we will miss the playoffs by 1 game

                            I think WR is upgraded - Lee Evans is with no doubt in my mind gonna be the new Steve Smith - he is gonna have an explosive year as long as JP is in there - He was putting up numbers that other recievers put up after a whole game - but with only 2 quarters of play. I think our DL could be an upgrade as well, but it's gonna take time for them to get better within the system - Kyle Williams I think has outperformed McCargo, and Tim Anderson is making plays as well. Our DBs will get torched because there's so much youth at the position (we'll could see up to three rookies on the field at one time which does kinda scare me, but at the same time - it will make them familiar with each other's tendencies and we're probably not going to the playoffs this year anyways, so why not use this season strictly as a learning tool if it becomes painfully obvious by week 10?).

                              8-8, with the team going 1-3 to start the year. 9-7 and the playoffs an outside possibilty.
