So if one or two of these teams wins a few games in a row and that evens out all the sudden we’re legitimate or what? Cause games that we didn’t even participate in? This whole premise is dumb.

How is the whole premise showing we've played bad teams so be cautious/level headed "dumb"?

Because if one of those teams wins a few games all the sudden the teams we played are better and then the teams legit? So you’re saying games we don’t play decide if we’re good or not? Cmon man! It’s early in the season...most teams with more wins than others have a weak opponent w/l by virtue they all lost to the good team.

Just a "pump the brakes" fair warning for this upcoming game.

We're 3-0, and that's where we should be. But we've won the past 3 games by field goals in closing moments.

Our opponents so far (Jacksonville, Denver, Minnesota) are a combined 3-10. Each only have one win.

The Bills have more wins so far than our opponents combined. (4)

And our last 5 games vs the Bills have been decided by an avg of 3.2 pts.

Hopefully we get some players back that we've been missing. And hopefully Dean Pees is charitable and on speakerphone.

Just some perspective/reason for caution.


Team's gotta play better. Especially on D.

I guess the bolded comments above kind of highlight the other.

1 - Our wins have been close wins, so are somehow 'less valuable' or 'less convincing' wins.

2 - Our opponents are 3-10, with 3 of the 10 losses due to us. But these are close losses remember! So on another day, our opponents could be 6-7, and we could be 0-3.

What would we be saying then? That we suck against mid-road opposition, or that we've have 3 close losses so we are there or there abouts?

That’s how college football rankings work. Teams are always hoping that whoever they lost to wins every other game to appear as a tougher opponent.

Jesus this forum is waaaaaay too sensitive/defensive.


Literally NO ONE is discrediting our wins. Calm down.


Can't even shed light on some statistics without emotional fans losing their minds thinking it's some kind of attack.

You literally made this thread to discredit our wins lol
 
The Bills had played the Jets, Dolphins, Raiders and Rams before us...not exactly a difficult schedule, plus winning 2 of the 4 games by a FG, one by 7 and beating the Jets only by 10

They were crowned the NFLs hottest team...we whipped their ass...hopefully that shuts a few people up

Rams and Raiders are good teams. Raiders just beat the chiefs at home. Dolphins are better than most think. So their schedule was solid through the first four games.

And yes we whipped their!!

I also am not a fan of this unofficial crowning that has been mentioned. I believe at 4-0, they were considered A hot team along with any other team that’s ever been 4-0 including the Steelers this year.
To my knowledge, no one crowned them “hottest” team.
