Official Buffalo Bills Thread

Hmmm, not a bad comparison. We're in a tougher division too.

I don't know if I'm even expecting a playoff berth. I think I'm just expecting a decent year... A FULL year. Not this hot/cold stuff we've done the past 2 seasons. 8-10 wins, and hopefully that's worthy of a playoff position.

I agree camp and game are two different things in just saying the team has looked good. If we get over the 8 win plateau then I'll consider it a successful season

On paper I think the Bills can be a pretty good team. If the offense can be a little more consistent and keep the defense off the field then who knows what can happen. I think on paper at least the defense has the potential to be a top 5 defense in the league but again, it depends on the offense to make sure they don't overwork themselves and be put in bad situations.

The D-Line should be spectacular, and that really makes the back 7 look a lot better. Having said that, I don't think the back 7 are anything special. They got absolutely torched a ton last year.

And I still have questions about Fitzpatrick, but a friend of mine is producing a new Buffalo Bills radio show so he's been at every practice and he says Fitzpatrick has looked fantastic so who knows.

Cool, I hope said station has streaming capabilities and when it's on the air you can let us know about it

As long as the front 4 can get consistent pressure our back 7 will look a lot better. Any QB can find an open receiver when they can sit in the pocket with no fear of it collapsing.

Yeah, I guess the question is are the front 4 better than the back 7 are bad? If so, we already have won the defensive battle. Let's hope the back 7 can be opportunistic too. We know Byrd can grab a few INT's.

I'm honestly not too worried about Fitz. If we run it like we can and the defense isn't a total sieve, his job won't be as important to our success. It's going to be a very interesting and exciting season.

Radio show is on WGR 7-9 every night. And I believe they have podcasts for each episode and I believe you can also go back and listen to the old episodes on their web site (not sure what that site is though).

It's the new John Murphy show. So excited for my friend to finally get a job producing a radio show. And it's a bonus that he gets a couple tickets for each game too.

Edit: Found a link to the website
