We will win Sunday

[cocamide]

I really don't know why, but I absolutely believe that we will win on Sunday. This is the first time I've felt this way all season, so I'm not just some unrealistic homer. (Even after Greer broke up the 2pt conversion I said to my friend that the Cowboys would get the onside kick and win with a fieldgoal, and that we'd probably have a better chance if they made the 2pt conversion and we went to overtime.)

Our offense is pathetic, but so is Baltimore's. McGahee seems to be up for certain games, but I think our guys will be up for it more than him. As pathetic as our offense is, I think they'll actually play well this week. Evans will finally break the 100 yard mark and get a touchdown. Why do I feel this way since there's no rational or logical reason to? I don't know, maybe I was hit in the head too much as a kid.

Re: We will win Sunday

I completely agree. Even when the Bills were beating Dallas 24-13 in the fourth, I kept saying to those I was watching with that the Cowboys would win. And I said it even after the failed two-point try. This is Buffalo -- I knew we'd lose the game in some freak manner. Unfortunately, that happened.

But anyway, I do think the Bills will win this week. I don't see the Ravens as a very good team, despite their record.

It's a shame that we've had to take this attitude towards the Bills, but I guess that's what to be expected when time and time again they find ways to lose. I thought things had changed after the Houston game last year, but sadly it hasn't. Oh well, I'm still looking forward to watching the game on Sunday.

Here's to hoping our predictions are correct:

Re: We will win Sunday

They have beaten the jets, the somehow overrated cards, the niners who are struggling, and the rams, and even lost to the Browns and Bengals, neither of whom are stellar by any stretch of the imagination except their O's put up some points. I really think if our team, whether it is our O or D or combo of both, puts up 20, we win. Boller is worse than both of our QBs, and we all know how sad of a state that is. I dont expect Edwards to have more than 150, with a TD, and our D will have 3 picks. Whether we win will be based on TOP, which means we need to stop MCGillis Wahahee.

GO BILLS! i feel our 2nd win coming on real soon!

Re: We will win Sunday

I never feel like this team can win.

Back in the 90's we'd play the other good teams of the day- Chiefs, Steelers, Broncos, occasionally the 49ers or Cowboys, even the Dolphins some years- and it ALWAYS felt like we had a chance. There was never a game like the Pitt or NE games this year where I just feel like we had no chance.

And I don't feel that way every week. Certainly Baltimore has flaws and I feel like we have a chance against them, but I never have confidence that this team will win no matter how good or bad our opponent is. Over the last 7 or 8 years, this team has found more stupid, ridiculous ways to lose games: the Jacksonville game in 04, the 21 point comeback by Miami in 05, the Indy, Detriot and Tennessee games last year, the Dallas and Denver game this year- and those are just off the top of my head.

It's just so frustrating to have that feeling that no lead is ever safe and no victory is ever assured.

That's normally the way I feel too. I don't know why I feel different this week. Of course, it's when I think the Bills will do well when they do their worse. So, I'm probably just setting myself up for disappointment.

I doubt they read this board. If I wanted to cheer them up, I'd send some hookers to their locker room.

Re: We will win Sunday

this game is the season.

If the bills can win and show some offensive capabilities. the players will support this coach. And then, the close denver and cowboy games become hurdles that they players will want to overcome. if they come out and play like anything they have for the past 5 games, this season is over. The players will officially be split about the QB position. The defense will just tire out, and they'll all hate the fact that they don't even have a bye to rest on.

This week is the turning point. One way or the other. and I don't feel like the bills can't compete on this one.

Totally agree that this game is winnable at home. This team needs this win to try and turn the corner. 1-5 is going to be painful.

Re: We will win Sunday

the Dallas game was the turning point- if we could have pulled that out, we'd have some momentum for the rest of the season.

Re: We will win Sunday



i am not happy with Jauron's "Trent starts this week" mentality, and i hope Edwards has a great game.

i want McGahee's homecoming to be very unpleasant for him.

Actually I have the exact same feeling for some reason, and I also had a bad feeling bout that onside kick. I think Evans will break out also.

Re: We will win Sunday

If you check out ESPNs Madden 08 sim, it has us losing 31-3. If you check out the Madden 08 sim for the Cowboys game, it had them winning 26-24 on a last second field goal set up by some miraculous plays.

Saying that I think it was just a coincidence but I don't see how our inept offense is going to do **** against one of the best defenses in the NFL.

Agreed, there is nothing to indicate we will score on anything but special teams or defense. The Ravens D is almost as good as NE and Pitt, which manhandled us.
