Midseason grades...Buffalo (C)

[imbondz]

Buffalo Bills (C)

This team has the worst identity crisis in the NFL. Every time they look ready to compete, they sputter. And then, out of nowhere, they pop back up again unexpectedly.
How they can get better: Ride C.J. Spiller and Fred Jackson. Coach Chan Gailey said he wants to get them a combined 35 to 40 touches per game. Good idea.Prediction: Watch out for these guys. They could easily jump up and grab that final wild-card spot. In fact, we think they will.

There goes their credibility.

Wow. That's super-optimistic.

So the Dolphins get a C- despite no one thinking that they would be this good.

The Fins are 3rd against the run. I wonder how the Bills will match up against that.

While I don't agree I think they are figuring we went through a tough part of the schedule and the back end is easier

or they haven't seen any games yet

Well, off the top of my head, we still have to play the Texans and 4 more divisional games. That's more than likely 0-5, giving us 9 total loses.

C is a passing grade. You don't get a passing grade when you're 3-4 and lost to a team that you're supposed to beat(titans) and then get crushed by the other teams. D at best

[jdaltroy5]

Playoffs? (I know we all say it in Jim Mora's voice when we read it)

This team got stompshowed in 3 games this year and then lost (in soulcrushing fashion) to a team that was getting ****kicked by other teams.

I don't know how anyone expects this team to make the playoffs.

Hey! I resemble that remark!

[Generalissimus Gibby]

D-,

Poorly coached, undisciplined, no heart, no courage, an owner who micromanages and doesn't care. No accountability, no guts, no heart, and overpaid. This team is garbage at best. I give them a D- because an F might be too demoralizing

[SABURZFAN]

or they haven't seen any games yet


that is my guess too.

[Skooby]

If CJ / FJ touch the ball 40 times & Fitz doesn't as much, we actually could win a few.

[trapezeus]

absurd that the bills got a passing grade. in spots that matter the most (coaching, qb, pressure on qb, stopping the run), they aren't even close to passing. it's not like they scored a 59. These are full on 25-35. and the things that they've done ok on (kick returns, dancing in the endzone, and making the tim hortons coupon valid in all three home games) doesn't really close the gap when you weight the categories appropriately.
