How will I EVER carry on ???
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
I think 12-4 is reasonable
I think thats the consensus take on the Bills with fans around the league.. Fair assessment, but they could surprise some teams especially later in the season
We're going to suprise right from the start.
Actually, I don't think "they will suck " is a "fair assessment" of this year's Bills.
I believe that we will be a young team that plays hard, plays together and doesn't give up. If, because we may still not end up with a great record, that means to some that "we suck," so be it.
To me, it means a great amount of progress.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
That would be a nice improvement and, with the development of some of our young guys, and another good draft and FA period by Marv and Dick, should put us in even better shape for 2007.
To you, a Bills fan.. Your right.
To the other 31 teams around the league and their fans, if all that holds true and we finish among the bottom of the league like most publications are predicting, then we suck.
We should be better than last year.
And though we had a bad season last year, -it wasnt really as terrible as our record indicated.
The games against NO, CAR, ATL, and MIA are all games that really could of went either way.
To say that we'll suck this year is just stupid. Remember guys, -On any given Sunday.....
I think better game-plan and coaching will give us 2-3 more wins than last year.
I think we had more talent last year, at least now. IN 1-2 years guys like whitner and mccargo will be more seasoned and we'll be a good team.. but for RIGHT Now, Milloy, Adams and Moulds are better than anything taking their place THIS season. SO on talent we lose 2-3 games.
WHich in my estimation, as stupid as it is to most on here, gives us round 4-5 wins this year.
oh, I disagree completely.
We were flat-out awful last year. You're forgetting that we blew a 21- point lead in that Miami game. So even though it was winnable on the scoreboard, it was a choke of monumental proportions.
You're forgetting about several blowouts, including giving up 48 points to the Raiders, who picked ahead of us in the draft (meaning they were an awful team last year).
Also, one of the biggest differences between a good team and a bad one is the ability to win close games.
To say that we'll be good this year is just stupid. New systems on both sides of the ball, new coaches, young players, bad QB situation etc. Any given Sunday.... maybe- every given Sunday for a whole season- no friggin way.
Im sitting at 6-10 again
COMING SOON...
That would still be one game better than last year, and if we do it with young, improving, motivated, and never-say-die players, it will be a big step in the right direction over last season.
What I think is most promising about the Bills are the type of players that Marv and Jauron have brought in. We got rid of the whiners, pouters and lazy asses like Milloy, Moulds, Adams and Williams, and replaced them with young, hungry FAs (most with something to prove) and motivated, high character, high intelligence draft picks. Those kind of guys won a lot of games for Marv not so many years ago.
I 100% agree with you.. But its not happening in one off season.. Teams that are that bad; that are gutted from top to bottom like the Bills were this offseason (from GM down to the field) dont magically become contenders in one season.
I feel a lot better about the future of the Bills than I did this past January.. But, we're going to really struggle on the field while we're learning a new system and coaches are seeing what players we got.
I understand, Pat, and I am willing to be patient - for once - while this team develops. You have all the logic in the world on your side, and odds are we will struggle mightily this year. I will be very happy with a better coached, more disciplined, more motivated, more dedicated, higher energy team, regardless of our record.
But I'm still hoping, and still think it's possible, to catch a little lightning in a bottle.
I think when the Bills start to put it together their D will be smokin!
In no way did I mean that we'll be good.... Just better.
Yes that Raiders game was bad, but that Miami game was just bad coaching more than anything else.... all we had to do was just run the damn ball for just 1 quarter... but dumbass Mularkey had other plans.
