    Re: The next 3 games don't look as daunting

    Baltimore isn't a cake walk and cleveland has been on the schedule during all these craptastic years for both teams and its been a 50/50 split.

    One game at a time would be best for the players and the fans.

    I hate to be a bummer, but I'm thinking we take 1/3 of those games at best.

    The shortest path to a winning record is a victory on Sunday.

    I feel we could win 2 out of the next 3 games.

    Re: The next 3 games don't look as daunting

    the bills had a big win last week, but cam newton was incredibly inaccurate. brady was very accurate and we lost. it's as simple as that. you pile on a couple injuries in any area of the team, and winning gets very hard.

    so far, i like our chances in a close one against the jets. injuries seem to be minimal, jets seem to be hurting (though on 10 days rest). so let's see if pettine can out strategize rex.

    after that, who knows. we need to come out relatively healthy again.

    Re: The next 3 games don't look as daunting

    Baltimore doesn't look like the same team that won the superbowl, but they'll still be tough. No reason the Bills can't compete though.

    Cleveland is struggling and now they lost their qb. Not sure if Weeden will be back, but either way I think the Bills are better. Playing on the road for a Thursday night game is a big disadvantage though.

    I would like to see us take at least 2 of the next 3 and hopefully have Gilmore and Byrd back before facing a tough Cincy team at home.

    Cincy is going to be hard, their RB's are really good.

    Browns just traded Richardson to Indy, so that won't hurt the Bills.

    Willis McGahee is in Cleveland and pending a physical will likely be signed.

    Re: The next 3 games don't look as daunting

    Bills always seem to play the Ravens tough, and should have won in 2010...lost in OT, 37-34.

    The Browns just traded their best player, and have a QB that can't avoid sacks.

    It all starts with a big win over the Jets.

    4-1 after week 5 for the Bills.

    Wow, that's crazy. When do you ever see a team trade their top 5 pick after one season? Good career move for him though.

    I'm shocked, talk about laying down this season.

    Re: The next 3 games don't look as daunting

    The way I look at it is we could win all those games, or lose all those games, or possibly win 1-2 of them.
    My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.

    Why do people like sitting on fences like this? Isn't that uncomfortable?

    Re: The next 3 games don't look as daunting

    Road games are always tough, even if you're up against a tomato can franchise like the Browns.

    Or the Jets, who I think are a disaster despite the 1-1 start.

    The Ravens aren't SB caliber anymore but they'll be sporting when they visit the Ralph.

    "Tire fire," is what I think you were aiming for with the Jets. Just wait until the Bills destroy them in Jersey.

    The Browns just shat themselves after taking a dump on Richardson.

    And the Ravens don't know what to do without their leader, Ray Lewis. They look lost, trying to find their way without him.

    I'm drooling, sorry.

    No its impossible to try and predict when we have no clue yet how good or bad this team is. Pointless.

    Certainly. The first and third are winnable. Ravens? That would be a stretch. If I had to put numbers on the three: 50%, 20%, 70%.
    Lehner's history. He just doesn't know it yet.

    However, they played the Pats tighter than we did. Brady didn't have Amendola though. He was the difference in our game. So what am I saying? I don't know. Time for another Peroni.
