    How are you sure it WON'T happen? Or how are you sure the Bills are doomed for another futile ineffectual season? I'm no scientist, but THAT hasn't happened yet either, has it?

    There is really no point talking to about these subjects. I mean, you are like broken record about it, and never really seem to respect contrary opinions. Everything's static, and that's IT, right? Talent was added last year, yet we got the same spiel from you. There are PLENTY OF VARIABLES in play always...lots of them unforeseen.

    What I want to know is why you don't lay a ton of cash against the Bills this year. Why aren't you doing that?

I'm not particularly worried about the O- while they weren't spectacular last year, they were good enough to win more often than not. It was the D that held them back.

    I'm merely stating that expecting significant improvement with the same guys is unrealistic.
    Yes they added some excellent talent last off-season on offense, but there was a 3-way competition for QB which hindered TT and injuries wracked them. They all have a year in Roman's system and Mills will have a full off-season with the team, instead of being added late in the season and having to catch up.

    As for the defense, we'll see. This is Ryan's make or break year.

    Not too sure another injury or two won't buy him yet another make it or break it year in 2017.

    I've seen it, looking ahead with my arcane magicks. I'm not one for spoilers, but I'll share one positive thing for people to look forward to with delight :

    Garrison Sanborn will have a solid season.

    You're welcome.

    Well, I hope they make it rather than have to break it. But if they blow, it needs to promptly change. The proof will be in the pudding. Like I've said before, I can deal with a competitive losing team with upside or at least desire, but I can't deal with flailing mediocre anymore.
