Could 13-3 be reality???

[L.A. Playa]

Think about it
say we go 5-1 against the AFC East with lone loss coming either at Miami or at New Englang
3-1 against NFC East say loss at NY Giants
3-1 againts Afc South wins at jax hou and ind loss at tenn
2-0 against bengals at home and at KC we would have won last year at KC if Peerless fought for the ball

Thats 13-3 hmmmmm may bee a possibilty id take 11-5 and that looks good too

[Novacane]

I think you're a little to optimistic. I like your thinking though. 11-5 and I'll be VERY happy

[TypicalBill]

id say winning the division at 10-6 is more realistic ... going 13-3 needs a team that played together for atleast a season or 2 ... we have the talent but they wont click 100% in the beggining since a lot of them are in a new system.. but look out when they jell.. this team will be dominant!

[Dolfan984]

I don't think anyone is going 13-3 in this divison. 11-5 would be impressive for any team in the AFCE. The best division record someone will have will most likely be 4-2, leaving you one loss in 10 games? Unlikely.

I think you guys will go 9-7 or 10-6, and get the wildcard (Of course with us winning at 11-5 :) ) and next year, it'll be your turn. Gunna take a little time for all that talent to gell. Pats are gunna go through their 5 loss in a row slump again, and that'll put them at 8-8 or 9-7, but lose the tiebreaker to Buff if tied. (Buffalo will score more points/get scored on less.)

[L.A. Playa]

yes but look at our out of division games 8-2 in those games i believe is conservative if we are playing well when we come to the giants and titans we could go 9-1 or 10-0 out of division and go 3-3 in division and have a great record
phil at home tough but winnable

[L.A. Playa]

i have one question also for dolphin fans
do you panic if houston upsets you this week???
im not saying they will but what will u think of your team if they do ???

[Novacane]

I know I'd panic if Houston beat us. That being said I don't see anyway they beat Miami this week.

[L.A. Playa]

watch out for andre jonson miami fans

[lordofgun]

Needless to say...

I wasn't very impressed with the Jets or the Redskins last night.

Those teams alone combine for 3 very winnable games on our schedule this year....games we should win.

If we win all 3 of those games, and go .500 (give or take a w/l either way) the rest of the way, we're 10-6 or 9-7.

I happen to think we'll do better than .500 in our remaining games, which means an 11-5 or 12-4 finish isn't out of the question..

[L.A. Playa]

this time last year did anyone seriously think that the words super bowl contender would be coming out of your mouth even if the bills flop this year at least they gave us all something to be excited about

[TypicalBill]

Houston cant beat the fish ... they have no running game, their already thin offensive line lost the starting center days ago.. their best WR is a rookie who'll play his 1st game...they only have 1 solid CB .. basically, they wont put up more than 10 points in the game...

the ONLY way that they could win it is if they score a pair of TD's .. shutdown RW and Fiedler throws 2 or 3 INTs... but thats an enormous IF!


you never know, miracles happen

[Dolfan984]

You know I'd panic if it happened. We've won what, 12 of our last openers. We easily outmatch Houston, it's at home, in early September, if we lose, I'll probably be getting really wasted that night. :P

Would you panic if NE beats you guys?

And for the post. :P


phil at home tough but winnable I think Philly is on the down, I'd say you have at least a 65% chance of winning this one
wash at home winnable You'll win (The Jets suck)
ind at home winnable I dunno, they have a good D, and a more potent O IMO. At least it's at home for you, but don't dicount this one.
cinn at home winnable You'll win
hou at home winnable You'll win
nyg road tough I think you can take them, but you could very well lose as well.
tenn road tough Yeah, that is tough.
kc road tough winnable maybe, They could surprise this year. Hell, we blew one against them last year. Any given sunday.
jax road winnable should win, never know
dal road winnable if late in the year they could be better, but yeah, you'll win

Just looking at the games and giving a 2 second analysis in my brain tells me 10-6, which could very well win the divison. That's if you go 4-2 in the division, and in this division, that can be tough. Both of our teams are good, but not superpowers, we're not going to just kill everyone. (Houston yes, Cincy yes :P ) Just trying to be unbiased as I can. :)

[Dolfan984]

Fiedlers gunna put up some good numbers, and unless he has another stupid injury (Sorry, a broken thumb isn't an 'injury prone' type of injury, it hit a friggen helmet) he'll be there all year just like 2001. I'd bet that he doesn't throw a single INT in this game. He hasn't in an opener yet. :) :P

[northernbillfan]

LAst season the majority here thought 8-8 would be a good finish. There was talk about a Super Bowl, but not until this season or next, with more emphasis on next. Now things have changed and we are looking at a 10-6 record, at least.

It has to start with a win on Sunday.
