Great win today.... Most of the the so-called "experts" had the Bills winning (And for good reason-- look at the records)

It seems that over the past few years the Fins always score upsets. (SD, NE, Chi, etc) but can't win the "easy" one (Hou-- every year)

I wish we could have that Hou game back...
 
We're catching a glimpse of what is to come. This team doesn't have the raw talent to win this year, but next year we should see significant progress.
 
in all honesty we should be 5-2 the texans and jets games were completely winnable. i see more of a mental pattern developing thats becoming a problem: we lose 2, win 2, lose 2, win 2, etc. after 2 losses we play with heart and no chip on our shoulders but as soon as we build decent momentum we get all comfortable and big headed and blow it. the good thing is our mental state is greatly improving, just look here i thing we may be the least penalized team in the nfl and that was our Achilles heel for years
 
if we win the games we should lose, and lose the games we should win, they should just insert us straight into the superbowl.
 
I think this kind of play is exactly what you get from a young team with a fiery young head coach. This is year one of a rebuilding process, and struggles are to be expected from this young group. They just have to learn to treat every game the same and not just get fired up for the big games. This will come, but right now the future is looking very nice.
 
I have no idea how the Houston game was expected to be easy. We were 3 point underdogs. Plus we were in a bad situation, a road team coming off two straight wins. Normally a road team in that mode will perform below expectation. We did a great job to lead for the majority of the game.

The last two weeks we played one game as 3 point favorite and one game at pick'em. The odds say you'll likely win one and lose one in that situation, which is exactly what we did.

Logical distribution. Nothing is out of whack.

If you want to look at it in positive terms, we've only been favored once and we've got 3 wins. But many of the underdog roles were small, and pick-em today.

The last few years? Hell, this has been going on since i've been a fan of the team in 1989
 
Lets just hope next week we can win another game we are "supposed" to lose vs. Denver.
 
yea we could easily have been 5-2 right now...but im happy with the wins we got vs. the tough teams
 
Yes we do play to the level of our competition.

p.s way to go Joey 10.5 sack before the half way mark.
