Does anyone know when the updated Power Rankings will be posted? I think we should be in the top 5 now. Most of the top 10 lost! (6 out of top 10 will have lost after tonights game)

Don't call me overblown on this one, but based on the first week alone (what else would they base the power ranking on?), we should no doubt be #1.

dude, 6 of the top 8 lost, but of course 2 were guaranteed, cuz they were playing each other.

I agree with you totally but these guys try to use their little brains and try to tell the future as well. I heard some guys on ESPN News earlier today saying we should be number 5.

Philadelphia is about to lose to Tampa. Philly will drop, but Tampa is the defending Super Bowl champ. There's no reason to think they are going to get dropped. They are also pitching a shutout though they haven't scored as much as Buffalo. Buffalo could end up as a #2 on somebody's power rankings, but they're not going to #1.

They should be no lower than #3 unless the person making the power rankings are smoking some pretty strong dope

I agree. I take that back and say the Bills should be #2.

I love the fact that after 1 week... with nothing else to go by other than week 1... the Texans are 27th and the team they just beat (the phins) are 18th. Seriously???

You're so negative!
Can't you just gloat in the moment instead of ruining it for everyone!
We're #1!!! Your suggestions that we're anything else or your demeaning of our current, or what will likely be our current ranking, is sooo negative!
Give it a rest already!

yeah, well he's an idiot! The Bucs scored 17 points while we scored 31. We're clearly better than the Bucs!
Anyone not even realizing that is just plain negative!

Huh? Read the post. At the time I thought we should be #1.

That's ok, I hope they make us have to smoke the Titans in order to overtake them.

Losers!
The Pats were clearly the best team in the league! WE should clearly be ranked first!
They're just biased against the Bills. Any moron should fully realize that we're #1!

We should not be #1. Tampa deserves it until they lose.

Tampa will lose against the Saints.
For some reason, the Saints have a knack for taking out the best team in the league - they did it to the Rams when they were the king of the hill, and they did it to Tampa 2x's last year too.
I'm just glad that we don't play the Saints this year.

Your negativity is killing me.
Please...

After Sunday, we deserve to be the unchallenged #1s.
The Pats are the best team in the league since they won the SB two seasons ago.
What's w/ all the negativity here? I feel like I'm on a Bucs site!

Whoa! You seemed to have had a personality transplant! You're way more positive than I remember you being in the preseason. Tampa clearly has shown us some stuff yesterday and all last season.....there is no way the Bills will just bounce up to the #1 spot after one game.

He is being sarcastic, he changed from being negative to sarcasm now.

I just read his other post about the offense line.....I think I jumped the gun on my previous post....I now think he has a psychological problem called schizophrenia....and he is just plain mean spirited. Is that why his wing sauce is so hot??
Actually Socal, what you'll find is that I stated that the OL played superbly in pass protection, that the D overall played out of its mind to a man, that Drew had a very good game, that our kicking was on, that the 12th man was a huge factor, and that oh, BTW, our rushing D was a little flat and that our punt coverages and returns weren't much.
For that I'm labeled negative!
You can piece it all together and figure it out. You'll read rumors about me having said that Drew played like crap, that our OL sucks, etc.
It's the most annoying thing and naturally, when those making the statements are challenged as to find the posts where I said that, there stones retract like a set of landing gear and they disappear!
Go figure!
It's let's turn Wys into an A-Hole Day I guess!
In fact, read my article. If you can find the negativity, then please, point it out. Other than those slight bits that I've stated that is. Of course even mentioning anything about an emotional letdown v. the Jags makes you a Fin fan today!
BTW, I'm just doing the same to others as what's been done to me all day long simply to point out the absolute ridiculousness of the situation.

By coming out and beating the Pats 31-0, I don't think there will be any other NFL team out there that will overlook them. I think the Bills will get the attention they deserve, especially from teams in the division. No one else will want to be embarrassed the way NE was.
