1 Seed

Re: 1 Seed

Op we’ll give you credit. You’re realistic predictions in the past we’re correct and the majority of us were wrong. But in reality now, the bills are the best team in football now. Allen is arguably the best qb in football. The bills have a 2 game lead on 2nd place in the afc, and 3-4 game lead of 3rd+.

Welcome to the NEW reality

Re: 1 Seed

I don’t want to dump on the Bills because of what happened in the past. I’m being reasonable based on what happened in the past. I’m not saying it’s going to happen again, but I am saying we’ve seen good seasons fall apart many times, so we shouldn’t be talking about the 1 seed yet. It’s a very reasonable approach.

NO, it is NOT a "very reasonable approach”. It’s unfounded, unrealistic, head-in-the sand Negative Nancy LOSER talk.

Funny, but literally every objective professional sports media writer and professional NFL analysts are talking about the Buffalo Bills having the upper hand, and most likely getting the #1 seed in the AFC.....with the AFC Super Bowl berth “going through Buffalo”.

Your mind set is like when you kid gets accepted into Harvard (or any college for that matter) and saying to your child.....‘Well....32.9% of undergraduates do not complete their degree....so....you should know better than to count the chickens before they hatch and expecting to graduate with a degree’.


Or, before any positive development for one’s family saying....’Well....we are all going to die eventually so you should know better than to count the chickens before they hatch’.

I really feel sorry for you. It must be a heavy burden to perceive any positive situation with doom and gloom.

Re: 1 Seed

Don't make me break out the list of all the times this team started strong during the drought only to completely fall apart and miss the playoffs.

I'm not saying that's going to happen this time, but I am saying that fans of this team should know better than to count the chickens before they hatch.

Re: 1 Seed

The “NEW reality” (hat tip to BillsOwnAll) is that there are three teams that are head and shoulders better than the rest of the league.

And IN ORDER, they are

Buffalo Bills
Philadelphia Eagles
Kansas City Chiefs

When the Bills get the #1 seed and the AFC Championship is in BUFFALO, I really like the chances for the Bills to make it to their first SB in 28 years.

And I doubly like their chances to WIN their first Super Bowl EVER!!!

They did that last year too.

No, they didn’t.

The fact op can’t realize there’s a difference between this hot start and the 2000s hot starts is just ignorant. He’s no longer a “realist”.

Before he WAS a realist while we were “optimists” but the tables turned. We are now the realists.

Expectations have changed. Anything less than an afc championship appearance for as long as Allen is here is a total failure of a season. Being a realist they will lose some of those and/or Super Bowls. But that’s what we should expect now. That’s reality.

Everyone used the "this team is different" line for all those hot starts that resulted in chokes, too. And no, no one should expect that, ever. Not us, not the Chiefs, not the 2000's Patriots. There are just too many things that can go wrong.

Re: 1 Seed

The bills have lost to every single team they will be playing for the rest of the year

therefore, there is no other logical conclusion other that the season is over because they will lose the rest of the games.

anyone who thinks otherwise is a delusional homer

hell, did you see what cris Carter did to us in 1997? We cannot beat the Vikings!


did you see what we did against the lions on thanksgiving in 1995? I’m worried!
because, as anyone with a brain knows. What Ron Johnson did in 2000 and Trent Edward in 2008 is completely relevant to the 2022 bills.

Re: 1 Seed

Another Opi kissing cousin.

Weren’t you the guy that constantly **** all over Brian Daboll, calling him a terrible OC and predicting he would be a terrible and failure as a head coach?????

Yeah....Daboll is soooooooo terrible. He’s the favorite (right now) to win ****ing coach of the year award. THE reason for the Giants over performing (and mentioned by anyone and everyone with a shred of football knowledge) is because they are a very well coached team. It’s ALL because of Brain Daboll.

Please...just stop the Negative Nancy crap.

The Jets are pretenders and everyone knows it. They are better than last year....but not in the same class as the Bills (and KC).

The Bills are one of the best if not THE best team in the NFL.....certainly they have proved they are the best team in the AFC.

Never once said terrible. Frustrating and annoying. As far as head coach… he has miles-to go to make it past 3 years.

This is a fact.

Bills lead over the Jets is 1 game. Not commanding. Ask ZJoe B to run the math.

What every single one of those things has in common is that we should have won but didn’t. Just like Jax last year. Just like Miami this year. Nothing is guaranteed but people here are talking like it is.

Re: 1 Seed

I didn't make any predictions here. I simply said we should know better than any fan base not to get overly excited about a fast start.

We beat the best division leading teams all away from home, I mean there’s a fast start & being all alone.

And? NE went 18-0 before losing the SB. Nothing is guaranteed.
