Doohicksie Posted December 3, 2019 Report Posted December 3, 2019 So the way I see it, the Bills will beat Baltimore, Pittsburgh, NE and will simply need to beat the Jets to secure home field advantage.... but will lose to the Jets. Because Buffalo
Sabres Fan in NS Posted December 3, 2019 Report Posted December 3, 2019 As I have said, I have not followed the Bills much at all until last week. From what I have read and heard Sunday afternoon is going to be a big test for both teams that are really playing very well. Two top notch defenses, which will slug it out in what very well could be a low scoring game. Potentially a 10 - 7 type game, especially if the weather is bad. It could come down to the kicking game and from what I have read and heard many kickers have had a lot of issues this season. I do have a good feeling about this one and I think the Bills will play the best game of this season in a very important game. It will be tough, but I see the Bills winning 24 - 17.

Hank Posted December 3, 2019 Report Posted December 3, 2019 I hope people are able to manage their expectations. Baltimore is the better team, we are not supposed to win this game, the season is not a failure if we lose. 1 1

Says the guy that has not been paying much attention. I agree that the season is a great success either way. The Bills are virtually assured of a playoff spot and then anything can happen. No team this season is so much better than any other. I hear a lot of chatter about the Bills easy schedule, but you have to win the games you play. NE has the same schedule and they are not much ahead of Buffalo atol. So, spare me with that ease of schedule nonsense. Edited December 3, 2019 by New Scotland (NS) a few extra words ... removed ...

Baltimore has steamrolled good teams like Seattle and New England, and has beaten San Francisco. They beat the Rams and Texans, two winning clubs, by a combined 72 points. They're not only in the top tier of NFL teams - they lead it. The Bills can win any game they play, but it's not very likely that they win this one. Of course, it should be fun to watch and hope, and I think we can keep it a game.

The Bills are terrible and the Cowboys are awesome - everyone Um, wow, the Bills just laid waste to the awesome Cowboys, they must be awesome too! - everyone The truth is in-between, but I think the Ravens are as actually good as people thought the Cowboys were.

I live in the Cowboys market. They aren't that good, really. The post you responded to was kind of tongue-in-cheek. I think the Bills have the capability to beat the Ravens, but they're going to have to play perhaps their best game of the year... of the decade.

Randall Flagg Posted December 4, 2019 Report Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) Way too many cheap tickets left on stubhub. People can beat their chests about being proud of their cold weather, play-in-the-elements team, but they don't come to the damn games in December. It never mattered when we were bad, but it matters now. If I see as much purple as I saw green during Eagles week, I'm going to be pissed. This game is huge. If I was in town I'd be there, and I'm more broke than anyone Just build a dome Terry. Our main competitors in the AFC all play outside in the cold too so we don't have any tactical advantage there. Denver, KC, NE, BAL, PIT, CLE, NYJ, CIN, and so on. Meanwhile, in the biggest game in decades, our stadium is prime territory for a fan invasion because it's too cowd out for ouw wittle fingers Plus I know we got Allen for his hand size and arm strength in the elements, but he's had some pretty damn good dome games (MIN, DAL). Yes, I know this is an incredibly simplistic take on the subject. No I don't care Edited December 4, 2019 by Randall Flagg 2
That Aud Smell Posted December 4, 2019 Report Posted December 4, 2019 Do Ravens fans travel much? I'm asking. I think of traveling fan bases, I think of the Steelers, Jets, Eagles ... the Pats (I guess).

Lately I've had the impression that in most cases, it's the latter.
