    I can't believe it

    Our recent front page poll aking how many wins you think the Bills will get this season actually has people voting for 7 or less. WTF?

    19% of you who voted say the Bills will get 7 or less victories and 6 % of you actually elected for the 6 or less option.

    I didn't think anyone would vote that low.

    Vote here The poll in on the left side of the page.

    How many of these votes were placed before the preseason even started.

    (yes, I know preseason doesn't really tell anyone anything - The Raiders seem to go undefeated during Preseason almost every year - or at least go 3-1 - but stink it up in the regular season)

    Having said that though - when was the last time the Bills looked like an actual football team in the preseason - I'm excited.

      I think 7-9 is a fair guess. The offense hasn't proven anything in a real game yet and the D has looked suspect in 2 of the 3 preseason games.

              A real fan should always WANT the team to win.

              However, the ability to separate what one wants from the most likely scenario does not make one less of a fan. There's a difference between wanting something and actually expecting it to happen, and comments like this show a lack of understanding of that differences.

              A person should be able to look at the team objectively and come up with a reasonable prediction without having their status as a "real fan" called into question.

                  10 wins shoud be cake with our schedule. 9-7 worst case scenario I believe, but I'd say 10 wins is a safe bet hoping we don't get any big injuries. 11 wins certainly isn't out of the question!

                    Re: I can't believe it

                    heh... i've been within 1 win of our final total every year since 2001... and right 3 years in a row.

                    i'm still torn on what my final total will be.

                    i said before training camp it would be 9-7 or 11-5, i'm leaning more toward 9-7 or 8-8 now.

                    i'll figure it out before the season start.
                    My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.

                    MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!

                      If they get past 6 I'll be shocked.

                        That's a load of bull****. You always root the team on and support them, but that is different than an educated prediction on where you think they'll finish. A poll asking what the Bills record will be at the end of the season means, in essence "if you had to put YOUR money down and bet on a win total for the Bills, what would it be?" So are you telling me that if you had $10,000 on the line, you would vote for the Bills to win 11+ games this season? I sure as heck wouldn't. Not this year.

                        That being said, I'm rooting them on and hope they do it.
