I don't follow them very closely anymore, but it looks from my limited perspective that they are pretty good, have been pretty lucky, but still have moments of great fan frustration. We are objectively good. We should have won all 3 of our first games and honestly we did it in exactly the way this team is built We're a playoff contender, but not a super bowl contender. Really there's only 4-5 teams that are, and even in that group there's 3 that stand out 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted September 25, 2019 Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 The Pats will probably win, but maybe not. Sooner or later, every dog has its day. And if it's close in the 2nd half, and the Bills sack Brady on 3rd down, or lay a big hit on someone to force a fumble or an interception, or score to tie the game or get within 3 -- at that moment in time, there will be no place on earth as awesome to be as the Ralph. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were somehow to find a way to beat the Pats, the goal posts are coming down. I was there the last two times (and only two times that happened to my knowledge.). That is all..

And the last time we beat Brady in a meaningful game before that? 2003, ie 8 Septembers before THAT game. We're due! Also, it is stunning how dreadful the video player is on the Bills' site. It is simply impossible to watch anything there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cheatriots are far more beatable in September than they are later in the year. They're missing their FB and the WRs are banged up, including Edelman. If White can shut down Gordon, they've got a shot. Wouldn't put money on the Bills, and it is a monumental task to win this week, but it is possible. Charlie's 15% chance seems about right.

I don't think most people think we're actually going to win this game. And going into it at 3-0 makes it as un-stressful as possible. All that article tells me is that underlying metrics actually favor this bills team more than hot start teams of the past Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
