Appreciate it t6. Give Rex a decent QB, a decent running game, and a better than decent D, and the GM breathing down his neck and he'll get you at least 8 wins. He has all of that. This is a free roll. That Bills team imploded last year either zero motivation and he still got 8 wins. Add the pressure, the maturity of the QB, a better D (I guarantee that) to offset these early season injuries and we'll get to at least 8.

I'm not really sold on the Bills for a number of reasons but sports sometimes makes no sense and you've convinced me to throw down a wager on the over 8 +120. I've got Tyrod in 2 fantasy leagues too now, let's cash this ticket

Under is the play here. I know these teams (AFC East) as good as anyone.

First off Rex is the coach. Game/Clock management, replays and penalties are still something that confuses Rex lol. Guy lost them at least 2-3 games last year himself.

Second Taylor is limited and that's being nice. 0-5 when asked to throw 30+, no game winning drives, can't throw guys open, didn't make one player better around him and didn't play 16, which will keep happening because hes what, 6-1/210? And a running QB? How's he going to play after a year of teams watching him?

The team is thin and not that talented. First on offense they are so weak at TE and WR it's not funny. Stack the box and bracket Sammy. Who else is scoring points? Not Charles Clay and Woods. Who are their 2/3 options. They have a bad right side and again very thin all around.

On defense their without Dareus for 4 games to start. Their linebackers are Brown, Spikes and Brown. 2 guys absolutely no one wanted lol (Spikes and Zach Brown). Coverage is most definitely their weakest part of their game.

They have 2 good corners but no 3rd to speak of. Also no S's at all.

So basically without any coverage backers, S's to speak of, no 3rd cb or pass rush and their going to win 8 games against that schedule?

Good luck with your play!

Hey scal man, maybe it's a stupid question but I am not that into footaball. Do you think BUF Bills make the playoffs?
I can't take the o/u season wins right now so that is the only option, thank you!

If he is only 10% better, Bills will do better. Scal (IMHO) knows his Tri-State stuff........

Not a great bet, but decent enough to bet......

nice one Hawk....

Die Hard Bills Fan with plenty of valid concerns after ONLY 1 GAME 

Tyrod looked very afraid to throw the ball more 3-6 yards last week ( Greg Roman said many times during the off season that the " new" offense would be quick release short passes )... The result last week was disgusting ... 75% of Watkins routes were very short  come back routes ..  The Other WR's got pushed around at the Line  of scrimmage and had major trouble getting open ( WHY THE HEL L DID THEY LET CHRIS HOGAN GO >>>???)   ... 
The offensive line looked sluggish and had problems opening any holes inside the Tackles ....

on The Plus side the Defense looked good 



IF THE BILLS LOSE TONIGHT there is NO WAY THEY GET TO 9+ WINS IMNHO 


Any thoughts on hedging some tonight with the Jets ?????   
BEST OF HEALTH, HAPPINESS,WEALTH, BLESSINGS and LUCK TO ALL !!

I usually stay away from Thursday games unless I feel good about the home team. And in this case I dont. The Bills are just not that good, win or lose tonight won't change that. Rex and Bills dont beat the best teams and that's all they face this year. 

Looking at their roster is more than enough to see what they are. Also Rex is a joke of a coach who still deals with the same flaws he always has (game/clock management, player development, penalties/discipline, replays and many more) 

Besides GB from 2 years ago I can't remember a meaningful game they have won. Rex literally needs everything to go right to win a game, including the temperature and lighting for God sake. I mean I just read from OP that if you give him this and give him that he's a good coach? I'd be a great coach if everything was given to me. Good/great coaches don't have anything handed to them. They coach, develop and adjust their players and game plans.

lets wait until week 5 when the defense is dead tired from being on the field all day.

no one listened. bills are terrible. 

for NFL I ONLY will place my money on teams with a good QB and good head coach.

In order to win your bet...Bills have to make the playoffs - 9 wins...well since 1990..205 teams started 0-2 and only 24 made the playoffs. Some of those 24 teams that made the playoffs didn't even reach 9 wins.  Probably less than 10% chance your bets hits especially in that division.  It may be over the next 2 weeks with Arizona & NE.

Looking at the schedule 
5 wins seems like a stretch

I see a 6-10 season for the Buffalo Bills this year; period...
9-7 is possible (35%), but highly improbable...the wager simply has no value whatsoever, attached to a high risk projection of 9 WINSthe Bills are terrible this season, with no improvement value, (they showed more last year) once again, the Ryan & Ryan circus act got 'out-coached' on there home field....

Scalabrine,
the Bills are down 0-2
now explain to those who actually went for your highly de-valued -120 Bills to WIN 9 wager..."a clear sucker bet if there ever was one"  here's why:
9/25  -vs- Arizona Cardinals
10/02 -vs- @ New England Patriots
10/30 -vs- New England Patriots
11/07 -vs- @ Seattle Seahawks
11/20 -vs- @ Cincinnati Bengals
12/04 -vs- @ Oakland Raiders
12/11 -vs- Pittsburgh Steelers
1/01/17 -vs- @ N.Y. Jets


did you even check the schedule before you made your dramatic heart clenching handicap? well that's why they play the game, Fortunately for you, the Bills may be blessed, and have a 'miracle' season, and you WIN your wager...unfortunately, in my opinion, they don't have a prayer....to each his own

Well folks, you can read the above for yourself or I can put the Cappers of the Year candidates names up in lights. I'll do ya the latter and save you the trouble.

I said you could take the Bills over 8 wins and you will be at worst free-rolling. You will not lose money on this bet. It's push or win.

Look at the above names trolling when the Bills are 0-2. They came out like rabid hyenas didn't they.

Hugh-Jorgan (Called this thread DONE in a another thread at 0-2). This guy is a joke.

Sports_Network ("I see a 6-10 season at best"). Do you see dead people too?


There's more. That's just this one page.

Mafioso ("FIVE WINS is a stretch") They are now 2 wins from that win total after 5 games.

Dribble for Life (7-9 at best; Rex gets fired). Yup.

DubFire (Bills are terrible. No one listened). Glad we didn't listen...

Popcorn Grundle (Under in the play. He knows these teams better than anyone). Gosh, he knows them so well...


Times have changed haven't they. Now the Bills are 3-2 and need to go 4-7 for you to LOSE this bet. 5-6 is a push and a very reasonable 6-5 is a win.

Who's up next? San Fran at home. And at Miami before we play the Pats and a considerably weaker Seahawks team this year.

And we still have the Browns and Jets in a revenge spot on the schedule. Along with Miami again, Oakland, Jax and Cincy.

This bet is well on it's way to free-rolling to the 9 wins.

I wonder if the detractors are loving their under plays right now.

Dareus is coming back and the Bills have now reeled off 3 in a row.

Is it over? No. But we're far more in the driver's seat than we were before...

I hope you hit it Scal
But I still dont like it
Beating the Rams and a third string QB for the Pats doesnt impress me much.

But 
I do hope you hit it
