I only see one loss here..

[mybills]

Of all these pre season games, I think we'll lose the first and win the other 3.

Indy-away
GreenBay-home
Bears-away
Lions-home

What do you think?

[EDS]

Wins and losses in preseason games are virtually meaningless because the first two games are for evaluating talent, the third game is to give the projected starters a quarter or two to get acclimated and the last game is to avoid injury.

I think mybills started celebrating St Patrick's Day early.

[mybills]

Oh brother...it's just something to talk about.

[R. Rich]

It's like EDS said; who cares if they lose every preseason game? The Vikings, when Dennis Green was their coach, would routinely win their preseason games, but what did it get them? The ony thing that matters is getting to view your draftees and free agent signings and hoping they show some promise.

and the Bills did terribly in preseason under Marv Levy because he didn't care about winning those games. He used them to make personnel desicions and improve the product on the field, not scrapping for meaningless victories.

AMEN.

[Sabre Ally]

Why Indy? Why not just throw in Minnesota instead so we can play the entire NFCN? lol

Depends on what coaches of both teams in each game want to accomplish. Sometimes coaches of losing teams (from the previous season) place a priority on winning in the preseason in order to create a more positive climate. If the other coach merely wants to look at a lot of players, his team is liable to lose.

[helmetguy]

I get a little nervous if we have a winning pre-season record.

[The Spaz]

Derrrr...

[Shiny Chicken]

I agree with the consensus here. I really don't care which ones we win as long as no one gets hurt and the team is given a chance to make good personelle decisions.

If we are not winning games, it may mean that we have no depth whatsoever. But it doesn't always mean that. I don't look at wins/losses in the preseason. Whats important to me is if our offense can put up some points and minimize the mistakes. On defense, I don't want to see a lot of stupid penalties and starters making bonehead plays. I want to see the kicker making fieldgoals and the punter putting the ball in the general vicinity of it's intended location. I want to see the coaches call a good game depending on the situation. I don't like to see us run the ball when theres 9 guys in the box. Call the proper play according to the situation. But if we execute. we win. If we don't execute, we lose.

No tem has ever won a Super Bowl after an 0-4 pre-season. All we need is 1 win. Other than that, every key player must stay healthy. Last year we were decimated in pre-season when Milloy went down and Henry got hurt and never recovered.

[RetroRaiders81]

Pre-season don't mean anything. Last year the raiders were 3-1(should have been 4-0) And finished 5-11 on the season. But let's not forget they were 2-1 before Gannon was injured.
