What DB would we pick in the top 10 ?

I would rather see the Bills get it back together and finish strong, playoffs or not.

honestly, until we're officially eliminated, we have to keep playing as though the playoffs are still possible.

Realistically it's not going to happen, but the team still has to try.

Agreed.

I'd rather watch the team play hard than endure 6 more losses.

Its not where you draft. Its what you do with the draft pick that counts.

it's not the size of the draft pick, it's how you use it.

why the hell would you want the Bills to intentionally lose to get a better draft pick? i don't understand why fans want that.

As a Dolphin fan, I hated posts like these when our seasons were shot in the past years. Losing mentalities breed losers. You tank seasons for draft picks and 99/100 you will be a loser next year and the year after. Take a look at the Lions.

Because they are losers? No fan wants their team to lose, ever!

Ever?

So lets say the bills are 6-9 with 1 game to play. If they win the game they get the 13th pick in the draft. If they lose the game they get the 8th pick in the draft. Would you still want to win?

yes, especially the way this team drafts.

There is only one unlikely situation where I would root against the Bills: if the Bills are already eliminated from the playoffs, and the team playing the Bills could knock the Patriots out of the playoffs with a win. If we're already having a bad season, it would be worth stomaching one additional loss to see the Pats go down.

and people say Op hates the Bills. pshhh.

You're exactly right, we are a young team that is building and we need to also build a winning atmosphere, not one where we expect to be able to just pull wins out of our ***es.

You never want your team to lose. Ever. Never.

I hate these threads.

haha you guys are tools. read my other posts. I havent given up on this team. I just posted the other day, I dont think playoffs are done until we have 7 losses on the season!!! GO BILLS!

once again fellas, I was kidding. I think we can turn it around! it all started with Lynch gettin 119 on the ground yesterday. We are getting healthy and now, its time to revert back to power running offense and win out!

Is it just me... or is anyone else wishing that the Bills would lose out and embarrass Ralph so badly that he is forced to fire DJ and staff?

We aren't winning the SB this year... not even with the "Any Given Sunday" philosophy. So if we know we aren't winning the SB... doesn't it make sense to hope to lose to force a change for next year?

Maybe it's just me... but I wouldn't be upset if we lose every game from here on out.

I love the Bills, and I want 2009 to be a better year than 2008... with a different head coach.

can I make a thread saying "I hope we win out" because I'd say its about as likely as us losing out.

We wont fire Jauron even if we do lose out.

Its about 35-35 right now with a 30% chance of losing a game or two.

I hope we win out too. This thread was a sarcastic thing that turned into people getting pissy and giving me bad rep points... :down: lol

But think about it, if we could look into the future, and see that we are without a doubt 100% not going to even come close to the playoffs. Would you want to lose out to get a better draft pick and do excellent next year?


I dont want that, but I think it is a good hypothetical.
