I'm worried

[Mr. Miyagi]

OK we're 5-2 right now, but look at our schedule ahead.

@ Jets
vs Saints
@ Chargers
@ Chiefs
vs Pats

Even if we beat the Jets, the next 4 games are not easy. We could very well be 6-6 at the end of this stretch and hello 7-9 or 8-8 typical Bills season again.

Maybe I'm just jaded from the 17 years of suck. Can you blame me?

Beat the Jets (which we will) and I'll worry about the rest when it gets here...

If we're truly legit, you've got nothing to worry about.

Re: I'm worried

I think the Saints will not fair well outside of their dome & don’t travel well to northern cities. We also have the 12th man and a great defense, so I would think we could at least get our usual group of turnovers.

How many were worried when we were about to play Atlanta, Denver or Oakland? Those all worked out fine.

I was worried about Oakland, but the other 2 I think were too early in the season for anybody to have high enough expectations to "worry" per se.

This feels like the right way to look at it, IMO.

Re: I'm worried

the whole season is a waste if we cant beat the Pats. Its all about beating the Pats.

That's a bit harsh.

We can secure a Wild Card spot without beating the Pats this year.

This Jets game has trap written all over it.

Our last six games were not easy either. If this team is for real we will go at least 3-2 in the next 5 weeks

Agreed. Can't take them lightly. If the Bills want to be a contender, this is a must win game, IMO. Good playoff caliber teams don't lose these.

Re: I'm worried

Jets, Fins x2, Colts wins, lose all the rest... still have a >60% chance of making the playoffs. Win one of those other games and we're in.

Luck is done for the season, Miami will be playing for a draft pick, I feel pretty confident about those games.

NE will be at least half a game of backups, Drew Brees in bad weather, Chargers aren't real good and have no fans in the stadium, those a winnable games, take one and the streak ends.

Re: I'm worried

If we don't beat the Jets, we're in some trouble. The Chargers/Chiefs away games worry me quite a bit. Saints are good, but I like that it's at home, same for the Pats, who are also good but have looked beatable.
If we come out of this stretch 2-3, I think we're in good shape.

This is the NFL, there's really almost no teams you can walk all over, especially on the road.

Re: I'm worried

Here's how I see it: If we beat the Jets- which is not a guarantee- we'll be 6-2.

That means we only have to go 4-4 in the last 8 to get to 10 wins and likely make the playoffs. Certainly not a guarantee with this schedule, but much easier than digging ourselves into a hole where we have to win 6 straight just to have an outside shot at making it.

And regardless of what happens with the Jets, it's two extra days to prep for the Saints at home.

So, one game at a time.

But, I do see where Miyagi is coming from. With this team's history, it's hard to shake the feeling of impending doom.
