Bills 2024 Thread - Misery loves company

[Toga]

Nick Kish??? played with Csonka at Syracuse?
Edit: His only stats are from 1966 as a RB he rushed for a total of 38 yards.

The goal would be 5-1 after the bye.

KC schedule is not that easy

Texans get the WR back
Steelers are playing tough
Denver had them on the road
Chargers getting healthy

they could lose 2.

Toughest game by far is at Detroit.

SF at home is next - they’re a mass unit at WR.

LA on road is probably third but that’s a very winnable game.

Patriots, Jets, Patriots really should be 3 wins.

That said, I think 5-1 is possible. And I actually think the Chiefs could lose 2-3 of those ones.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

Great play by Allen but that KC defender smartly pushed him in the endzone

Watch it again. That isn’t an accurate recollection of what happened . He contacted Allen from the side and was trying to strip him of the ball. Once Allen crossed the goal line and it was academic , the defender throws him forward to the ground

Looking at the remaining Bills schedule, they have...

vs. San Fran
at LA Rams
at Detroit
vs. New England
vs. NY Jets
at New England

This should be 5-1. 4-2 absolute worst. Those last three games are just layups for NFL game standards.

Agreed.

San Fran - (W/L) coming to Buffalo after playing in GB this week (that's a ton of travel), but they are getting healthy.
LA - (W) Jekyll and Hyde type team
Detroit - (L) Best team in the NFL (IMO)
New England - (W) But need to get off to a fast start on this one, especially if they come out of Detroit with a W
Jets - (W) Team, especially the D has all but given up
New England - (W) I don't like to play a team 2x in 3 weeks, but this could be for #1 seed. Over by Half.

he played in 65 as well. maybe he got hurt game 1?

If we go 5-1, I like our chances at the 1 seed.

14-3... KC would just need to lose one more time.

KC would need two more losses in that scenario. They'd be 15-2 to our 14-3.

KC would have to lose twice more, I would love the 1 seed but counting on KC to lose more then 1 more game probably isn't happening. Buffalo would have to run the table to realistically take the 1 seed.

tend to agree here. I think best case for Buffalo would be 14-3. Not sure KC is losing 2 more and if they do, I mean 5-1 run for Buffalo is damn tough as well.

Regular season alone 14-3 for the Bills is just a phenomenal regular season ( if they do finish that well) but we all know the playoffs are what most are going to be judging on. Last season and 2021 set up very well for them in the playoffs and they did not get it done. Wherever they end up, they need to get over the hump even though most are really surprised and ecstatic as to how well they regular season has gone this year and they should be but we all know what needs to get done.

Bad Bass in the house today. But excellent start other than that.

Too late to cut this guy?

 

[kirbivore]

What… that wasn’t PI and it wasn’t catchable.

I hate Noah gray

Not just this game but in college and NFL you never see the uncatchable pick up the flag anymore.

[STEVEHOLT]

KC would have to lose twice more, I would love the 1 seed but counting on KC to lose more than 1 more game probably isn't happening. Buffalo would have to run the table to realistically take the 1 seed.

If Baltimore ends up as a 4, I’d rather be in the 2-3 bracket than 1-4. We match up poorly vs the ravens and well vs pretty much everyone else

I think HOU will end up at 4

Ya I'd really like to avoid Baltimore if possible, as you noted they are not a great matchup for Buffalo. Pittsburgh is interesting as well, very good defense but that Offense isn't great. Feels like if you can get any sort of double digit lead they will be in big trouble. That matchup with KC on Christmas will be fascinating.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

I think HOU will end up at 4

4/5 are equivalents as far as down the road rounds go

 

[SUFan44]

Yes math sucks…

KC still has Pittsburgh, Denver, Houston and Chargers on schedule… it’s more than possible.

KC isn’t that good this year. That must be factored in. I personally don’t believe winning close games is a sustainable skill. It’s mostly luck. there was nothing KC did that forced Likely to step out of bounds or the idiot Bengals DB to interfere on a desperation pass .

or the moron TB coach to not go for 2.

Agreed. Mahomes is Mahomes but they look a lot different this year than they have in the past.

I think about CLE as that surprise loss nobody expects KC to lose to

 

[upperdeck]

Clev with just a bit better QB play is a 6 win team.

They have wins over the Ravens and the Steelers in a 3 win season.
