Are the bills going to make the playoffs or are they just going to break our hearts at the end

Probably fail, but who cares they are relevant right now. I think as a Bills fan, after years of futility, I think I expected them to go from suck and then just blow the roof off this thing. Like the years of suck would some how launch us to 14-2. In reality, if you look at it, we are a better team. A relevant team. I guess that's not so bad.

We have the #1 Wilcard spot and hold most tie breakers at week 10, we are coming around finally! It would be nice to make the playoffs this year and they have a good shot with the remaining schedule, but like the sabres they have the foundation set and we should be good for a while!

if their defense improves and can play as well as they have been post-bye, they have a good chance of making the playoffs

Looking back, the Bills had some seriously dismal years towards the end of Ralph years. in 2007 the brought in Craig Nall to compete with JP Losman for the starting QB spot. Think about that for a second. They weren't even trying. And I don't mean like 14-15 Sabres rebuilding/not trying, they flat out wanted to go out of business and sell the team.

All praise the Pegula's!!!!

Not true. If that were the case, when the lease for The Ralph needed to be negotiated, Wilson wouldn't have had it done the way it was. His intention was always for the team to stay here. They were just really, really inept for a while.

100 gp was arbitrary but i wanted to avoid the one and dones like konopka and dalpe. Peters and Leino seem to be everyone's pick
- Sabresfan-365


As someone mentioned earlier, I vote for Leino based on his expectations.
Peters only job was to punch or get punched in the face. he at least showed up for that job.

Being number 1 in completion % and 5th in QB rating along with a 5-2 record don't count because he doesn't throw for 300 yards a game....

I only saw #11 in the later years, after robert was moved and martin was already on the decline


where does #11 compare with his peers clarke, dionne, lafleur, trottie, bossy, espo, hull etc


vs dom compared to roy and brodeur

- homiedclown


Better than Clarke, Ratelle, Trottier, Shutt., Unger, Sittler and Redmond. Lafleur, Espo and Dionne were better.
