Ready to change your mind?

[better days]

Now that a game that COUNTS has been played, are any of you PESSIMISTS that predicted 3-13 to 6-10 ready to change your prediction?

I said the Bills would win this game against the Bears & also that the Bills would win 10 games this year....9 to go.

I was one of the 11% that predicted the Bills would win 10 games or more according to the WGR poll.

47% predicted 6 games or less.

EJ passed for about half the yardage as Cutler had, so lets all not go sucking each others ***** just yet.

Re: Ready to change your mind?

Because we've never started 4-0 or 5-2 before?

It's a great win. I feel great about it. It's 1 win. 1. If we get 9 more by late November/early December, I'll be convinced that something's changed about this organization.

Re: Ready to change your mind?

You've got to be kidding me.

It's nice to get a win but a) it was one game on the road and b) we will get killed if we play like that against the Patriots, Packers, etc.

Re: Ready to change your mind?

I'm celebrating the win (oibviously) but I ALWAYS take it a week at a time.

Too many factors, such as injuries and bad refs can derail a promising season.

Another day to gloat, then on to the Miami gameplan.

Dont worry the EJ Haters will try to get back on his wagon after about 5-6 games. But NOPE its full you wanted off stay off LOL

Re: Ready to change your mind?

better days, you always predict a win.

this was a fun game. There were some good things there. like the bills o absolutely looking like the preseason team it was on the first drive, the d giving up 66 yards on 4 plays and then both groups responding.

however, play to play, the line doesn't look that strong on either side of the ball. but they made big plays when needed. that's a little too bend but don't break for my liking. dolphins looked good against the pats.

So let's see if the bills can keep it up.

No I'd welcome as many people on the wagon as they want to come on. Just know they will get a special ticket stamped "BANDWAGON JUMPER". True fans don't flip flop like that. For me, I'm a commitment guy. For better or for worse.

You'll regret this...and yeah, 6-10 still.

Re: Ready to change your mind?

Yesterday was a step in right direction. The good was EJ did go through progressions much more yesterday. He threw the ball downfield a few times, the receivers made great catches which goes a long way in building EJs confidence throwing the ball downfield.

Why I am not sold yet is Bears defense isn't the best, the receivers made much better catches than EJ threw ball (to my account there were only two perfect throws EJ had that were past 10 yards. The pass to Sammy in the first half and the pass to Mike Williams) and the Bills went very conservative with lead. I am not sure if that is lack of confidence in EJ to throw ball down field, play calling or both. The safeties jammed the line of scrimmage in 3rd quarter and the Bills still went short which led to short drives that they had to punt and not eating up the clock. A few longer throws to keep the safeties honest would of helped in third quarter.

I like to see EJ build off this game and continue to make strides and not have yesterday as an anomaly.

Re: Ready to change your mind?

it's only one game to predict either ways.

What a ******ed post. This kind of thinking needs to be put on an eastbound train and summarily cremated. We're actually better fans than you because not only have we had to deal with 14+years of FCS-level football, but we've also been patient enough to deal with cultist fans like yourself.

Re: Ready to change your mind?

As much as we say "who cares it's only pre-season?" is the same way we should be looking at only 1 win. Don't get me wrong, I am excited about the win but lets cancel the parade for a few weeks.
