    Are You Feeling Playoffs?

    Or are you feeling 5-11?

    It's a boom or bust year for the Bills in 2017.

    I'm on the boom side.

    There's no in between at 8-8 this year.

    The Bills are either going to be a playoff team, or they're going to suck.

    If you think the Bills are going to suck, back it up without referencing the team's lack of playoff appearances since the turn of the century.

    If you think the Bills are a playoff team, state your case.

    I think the Bills are a playoff team in 2017.

    1. Attention to details.

    2. Tyrod Taylor playing in Dennison's offense with a healthy Sammy Watkins.

    3. The return of the 4-3 defense.

    Schedule prevents us from success, if we somehow overcome it we win it all.

    Bust.

    1. Tough schedule, new systems going in generating ojt/weeding process under a longer term plan better suited for later success.

    2. Tyrod Taylor and his lack of offensive command, hurry up efficiency, crazy legs and poor field vision = problematic passing offense which is required to compensate for a defense in development. They'll again need to abandon running game to catch up and won't be able to.

    3. Lack of meaningful roster depth when injuries happen, and injuries always happen.

    For once it's nothing to get overly distressed about if you see an enthusiastic team developing discipline, imho. It's ojt, weeding and tuning.

    Re: Are You Feeling Playoffs?

    I would be thrilled with an incremental improvement in the record this year given the schedule. Mostly, I want to see an uptick in the team's competence and consistency. I don't want to see lots of mistakes
    I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

    I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

    It's not "boom or bust."

    Most likely, it's another middling endeavor. That could be enough to put us is the playoffs without the Patriots in our division....but they are.

    No successful playoff run until schedule becomes a non issue other than "what teams will we be able to see lose LIVE at the Ralph.

    Yes it IS "The Ralph".
