This team will win alot of games

will it win enough to beat the patriots in the playoffs? or are you saying 10 games and no playoffs, no new coach, and no luck is good enough?
 
So its tuesday, game over, and I've slept on it. I thought a lost would be a heart breaker for me but it wasnt for some reason. here are a few of them...

-Henne played very well, I know its only one game but if he can play 16 games like that in a season, we're going to win most of them.
-The OL was far from being the liability I thougt it would be, take out the 2 holding calls against Incog and they played well enough to give us a chance to win every week.
-Reggie Bush ran between the tackles and had some success, with the way the score was going up every 10-15 minutes, we kind of abandonned the run, no biggie because Henne moved the chains throwing the ball without any brain cramps.
-Fasano played great, except for the holding call.

I'm confident this morning, we didnt lose because our OL cant block to save their life, or because chad Henne brainfarted his way to INTs and fumbles, our because we didnt have a seam threat... losing because of those points wouldve been somewhat troublesome as we wouldnt have any way to adjust at this point in the season.

We lost because our defense couldnt get off the field wich resulted in players cramping up leaving depth players on an island against Tom Brady. I beleive this wont happen again, at least to that extent. The defense CAN adjust, they have the pieces. But please sign Will Allen because Nolan Carroll and Benny Sapp cannot have any kind of an extended role in a game.
Hopefully the fins can win alot of games but this game was a very embarrassing defeat that hopefully the fins team can learn from and improve.

imo i liked what you said all but one thing, we dont need to go bk to running the ball when you have a QB on the other side letting it rip, and we had very good suscess throwing the ball. we need to keep trowing until hennes arm falls off, because if we want him to get better at it thats the only way to do it, he cant do it running it .(throw to open up the run)
 
I agree. I have no illusions about the Bills winning "a lot of games" this season. I think they'll win 5 -- or maybe 6 since I didn't think they'd beat KC.
Putting up 41 points against any team is impressive.

However, it's in the Dolphins best interest that the Bills continue to suck, this division is hard enough as it is. :)
 
The Bills had excellent D this past week. They held last year's top running offense to 108 yards on the ground, and about 200+ yards of total offense overall. They forced 2 TOs, 2 sacks, and held KC to 1 score. For the Bills, who finished dead last last year in run defense, this is a major, major accomplishment. They started a rookie at DT (Dareus) and ended up playing their 2nd round rookie CB (Aaron Williams) a lot because of an injury to Terrence McGee.

The Fins gave up 500+ passing yards. That's unlikely to be repeated, but it really should be a source of concern, even if it was to Brady and the Pats. The Pats had a rookie playing RT, a recent acquisition (Waters) playing RG, and lost their starting center during the game, yet Brady had all night to find targets. The Fins need more pass rush than simply Cam Wake.

The Bills played who????

OTOH, Fin fans can't take solace that their OL isn't as bad as thought just because the Pats didn't crush it. They also have to be concerned that their DL couldn't get to Brady despite NE's OL issues. It's one game, and the opener at that, true. But it's silly for a poster to make the claim that the "Fins will win alot of games" based on the idea that the Fins offense wasn't as bad as expected, considering that the Fins D was thoroughly thumped by the Pats in that game.
If you think your team is going to win 5-6 games, thats fine with me, but it doesnt make it silly for me to think that mine will win more...
 
This team could be like the 2001 team. They were a good team who had no answer agains the elite ones. The 2001 Dolphin defense was loaded, but they lost 42-10 to the Rams in week three. I think the defense will be much better against nearly any other team in the NFL.

Also, the Jets lost 45-3 to the Pats in the regular season last year and then beat them a month later in the playoffs.
 
I don't know about this team winning "a lot" of games BUT I do think we can win enough to get a Wildcard position(no way we're winning the division). Lets hope our Defense gets its act together ASAP.
 
If your definition of "a lot" is just enough to miss the playoffs...you're probably right...

​If I were a Bills fan, I would wait a while before getting too ****y.Of course if I were a Bills fan, I wouldn't be on FinHeaven.

Matt Cassel is NOT Tom Brady. If the Bills keep Brady in check, THEN we will give you props. Until then, please shut your mouth and leave this forum. kthxbye
 
My fellow Bills fan hasn't said anything untrue or outrageous. I know it's hard to be objective at all times especially since we are rivals, but we have one thing in common. We hate the patsies and the jets.

Who here expected the Bills to go into Arrowhead stadium on opening day and beat the chiefs??? Not many people thought that would happen, let alone would we dominate a team that beat us last season. I mean, these were the AFC West champs with the best running game in the league going up against the worst running defense in the league. We did our job, and we did it convincingly. On to the next one now.

I picked the Bills to win. Cassel was injured and I knew he would play badly due to very sore ribs. That said, the Bills are the bottom of the AFC east, there is no competition for that. Thank god we have the Bills in our division. At least that's two wins.

Cassell practiced in full all week so he was prepared for this game. Not to mention he probably got a shot to numb everything. The bills didn't even blitz him and we still got pressure and 2 sacks. This was a dominating performance.

We are an easy 2 wins for you huh? How'd that work out last season??? Haha But that was funny.
