    Count on a loss against the Jets, and a 7-9 season.

    Take the coaches, talent etc. out of this for a moment and just focus on our remaining schedule.

    Oct 26 BUF @ NYJ LOSS
    Bye
    Nov 09 KC @ BUF LOSS
    Nov 13 BUF @ MIA LOSS
    Nov 23 NYJ @ BUF WIN
    Nov 30 CLE @ BUF WIN
    Dec 07 BUF @ DEN LOSS
    Dec 14 GB @ BUF LOSS
    Dec 21 BUF @ OAK WIN
    Dec 28 BUF @ NE LOSS

    The Jets have enough pride not to go 1-7. I'm sure they view this as a winnable game and certainly have ample time to prepare.

    Being realistic I don't see a best case scenario better than 9-7, which would be a big accomplishement at this point.

    No way do we go into Denver and win, but other than that we could win, or lose, every game on the schedule.

    He's got Denver as a loss.

    I see us losing to Cleveland.

    The true "realist" understands that they have no control of what happens on the field or behind the closed doors at One Bills' Drive, so they do the prudent thing for a spectator. They enjoy the games on Sunday with family and friends, cheer for their team and realize that it's just entertainment.

"I always tell you guys that I'll never say never because I don't want to paint myself in a corner, but when I do say something, I do it and I mean it and I try to fulfill it."

    "We believe the addition of Sammy is going to be instant impact, not only to our quarterback, but to what our offensive coordinator can come up with game-plan wise and how defenses attack us," Whaley said.

    Whaley on EJ Manuel: "We think we got a gem in this guy." (2:30)

    This team should be 9-7 or 10-6. If Orton had started (no blame anywhere) and we had a decent OC (not even great, just decent) I think 9-7 or 10-6 is very reasonable for this team.

    I think we lose to the Raiders and beat the Pack.

    Hell, nobody gave us a snowballs chance against Baltimore last year.

    I don't see how you can be so confident. It's not like Jets fans are sitting on the other side saying the same thing about us. I bet they are chalking us up as a loss because they are even more pissed and depressed about their team. I bet we'll be vegas favorites as well.

    They are both pretty weak teams dude, it could go either way.

    Here you go, baby.

    if we can beat the jets, we should sniff playoffs. I think we will sweep the fins, and if we beat the jets sunday, them too. 4-2 in our division will be big for us, we also have the raiders, and cleveland. I don't think the Browns will beat us again.

    I have a feeling we will sweep the NFC north this year.

    I also think Bryce Brown is going to make CJ a former bill by season's end.

    The Seahawks should have dominated the Rams yesterday. The Patriots should have dominated Miami earlier this year. The Browns should have stomped Jacksonville yesterday.

    The league is pretty damn close. Really, the only sure thing game I see on the rest of the schedule is Denver. (and the Raiders are probably close to one as well)

    Other than that? All games can reasonably go either way

    Re: Count on a loss against the Jets, and a 7-9 season.

    I can't look ahead with this team. I give us a 40% chance against the Jets.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    I don't think there's any way we beat the Pats at home either. I'll agree about all the other games.
    "'Clean up your room.', 'Stand up straight.', 'Pick up your feet.', 'Take it like a man.', 'Be nice to your sister.', 'Don't mix beer and wine, ever.'. Oh yeah, 'Don't drive on the railroad track.'"

    The Jets are a 2 to 3 point favourite right now.

    It is a coin flip.

    Home teams are given 3 points off the bat.

    If a home team is not favored by at least 3 points, they are the underdog.

    I don't know how Vegas or betting works, but are they basically saying the 1-7 Jets are better than us?
    My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.

    No. They are saying the two teams are even on a neutral field

    There's three games on the schedule they don't have a snowballs chance in hell at winning. Green Bay, New England and Denver.

    The rest of them are all winnable games.
