The Bills

[K-Dog]

how are they 0-6?
This is the only game I have seen them play all season and I thought they played very well. Their QB is no slouch by any means.

If they play the way they did today for the rest of the season, I think they will end up well.

I agree, they put up more passing yards against us than Brady did which is saying something since he is a future HOF

[Moderator 2]

Bills also played the Pats like they did us too. I know it sounds corny but they don;t know how to win. Also Fitzpatrick is a better QB then Edwards/Losmanm combo of the last few years.

Great game Browns. That's the last thing a Raven's fan wants too see! Another A.F.C. North team start to rise! Oh well maybe you can can the Steelers and the tiebreaker will fall the Raven's way! I guess, all things considered, welcome back!

What does that have to do with the Bills?

Anyway ON TOPIC, I can't believe Fitzpatrick didn't get the nod as starter right away based upon what he did last year. It kinda reminds me of how Harbs was saying how if Joe was given the starting job right away in 2008 he would have been further along, well the Bills may have had 2 or 3 wins I believe if Fitzpatrick was given the starting job right off the bat. Right now I'll say forget Andrew Luck or Jake Locker. Get a WR and a better offensive line and fix the defense. Besides Lee Evans, the Bills are making it work with the recievers they have, right now I would Mock(in which I'll put together a Mock Draft after Week 8)Buffalo picking in the first 2 rounds:

1st Round- AJ Green WR Georgia
2nd Round- Offensive Lineman

[JO_75]

Wow.... Congrats to the Bills on completing a huge comeback against the Bengals. From being down early to coming back and scoring 49 points to beat the Bengals... forget Andrew Luck. Ryan Fitzpatrick isn't just putting up Fantasy Numbers, he is the real deal. I stand by my point, Buffalo should draft AJ Green and get him a true # 1 and Buffalo will be a good team next year.

[AwakenTheDemon]

I think the Bills needs to address their offensive line first. Steve Johnson and Lee Evans are absolutely fine at wide receiver. While their offensive line struggles more often than not.

[berad]

Major guts and heart to comeback from that deficit on the road.

Who is Steven Johnson and where can I get one?

[Ed_Reed20]

Fred Jackson is a bad, bad man.

The Bengals are snakebit. Both of their starting safeties went down with injuries (how serious I don't know). Just glad I'm not a Bengals fan. Those people have experienced the most epic fail letdown ever, I think.

The Problem with that is there is no offensive lineman worth taking in the top 5, let alone top 10. I mean The Bills can take AJ Green and get a good Tackle in the second round. Though I think they should also look at improving that defense so they could either way with that first round pick they can't go wrong. BTW, is it me or did this Buffalo/Bengals decide who gets the 1st Pick in the 2011 Draft?

[Polamaluisabeast_43]

Marvin Lewis I believe is on his way out of Cincy. The Bengals have just completely imploded and they looked like they quit today in the 4th quarter. When you blow a 21 point lead to a 1 win Bills team at home you got some serious serious problems...

Yeah he is, its a shame that it took the Bills this long to figure this out this season. If you give him the amount of carries, he will break down the defense. But it takes dangling trade bait and an injury to their first round pick to finally get his chance to shine this season.

[SaVaGe]

First time in NFL history when a team is down by more then 17 points that they come back to beat the opposite team by 18 points.

That just speaks to the level of how pathetic the Bengals are. I remember all the Bengals fans talking smack but their dog in the race isn't very consistent like always.

Agreed. Buffalo has problems recognizing talent in the draft; it's no surprise they struggle evaluating talent on their own team.

[XxSizzleXx]

You'd think Johnson could afford something more than a 99 cent wife beater, and who the heck gets a Golden State Warriors tat? lol

A Warriors' Fan? lol

[reediddy]

They will be getting an early pick for sure but if I was running that FO I would NOT pick a quarterback. Fitzpatrick is a cerebral type QB, he has shown this year he can make all the throws, and their offense is actually surprisingly good. They've shown that against pretty good defenses this year (Ravens, Bengals, Jets, Pats). It's their defense that needs help. And they can ill afford to waste another 1st round pick on a defensive player that will make no impact, like Maybin, yikes what a waste. Maybe OL help as well, but they have a lot of young talent there as well.

Naw, it looks like the Panthers (1-9) are going to get 1st dibs on the draft picks.

[flaccopoe]

I'll say this about the Bills: they play much better than their record suggests. They have the 2nd-highest rated QB in the NFL and some other good offensive weapons, but they keep making costly mistakes like the Lions.

Well it took the Bills FO about half a season to figure out what the hell they were doing. They botched the draft. Then they kept with a QB that's already been proven as a bum. Then they kept forcing Lynch w/ the ball to get some trade offers.

They did exactly what not to do. Now they are leaning on some guys and just letting them play. Fitzy, Freddie and Stevie are making this team something special. They just don't have the wins to show for it.

[True]

If the Bills could get back to their late 80's/90's front office they'd be an incredible team. They drafted amazing HOF players like Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, Bruce Smith, and eventually Andre Reed. You'd think Ozzie was working for them back then with all the talent and home grown players they created.

If you have a bad front office, the team suffers as well. I'm really glad the Ravens have one of the best Owner/GM in the league and don't have to cringe on draft day.

Good find, I didn't realize the Panthers are the only team to only have 1 win. Yeah so whoever the Panthers bring in will have a head ache trying to turn them around.

Steelers @ Bills: My Upset of the Week, Bills over the Steelers

Bills @ Vikings: Unless Fraizer gets a Jason Garrett win streak, I can see Buffalo winning this one.

Browns @ Bills: Browns win

Bills @ Miami: Buffalo wins

NE @ Bills: Close but Patriots pull it off

Bills @ Jets: This will depend on the Jets, if the Jets have the playoffs locked up, the Jets may lay down and give the win to Buffalo, but if The Jets have to play this game to make the playoffs(if NE jumps them for the East) the Bills could play spoiler.

Final Record: 5-11 or 6-10(if Jets lay down and give them the win in Week 17)

You seriously really believe that the Bills are going to beat the Steelers?? Keep in mind even though the Bills have won 2 games in a row they barely got by a Detroit Lions team in Buffalo who had lost 25 straight road games beating them by 2 points, and the Bengals as terrible and horrific as their offense and entire team has looked over the last month or so scored 28 points on the Bills midway through the 2nd quarter and were up by 17 and 21 points at one point until they completely imploded. Yes the Bills have a nice little winning streak going and have played well at times this season but at the end of the day they just dont have what it takes to take down a team as good as the Steelers. The Steelers would have to completely and totally take them absolutely for granted and lay the biggest egg ever in my opinion to lose this game. And if they do go up to Buffalo and somehow find a way to lose I will be immediately calling for Tomlin's head because there will be absolutely no excuse in the world for the Steelers to not beat the Bills on Sunday in Buffalo...

Steelers and Ravens are very similar teams and this game is in Buffalo ...unlikely, but it could happen.

They definitely are I think the big difference is the Steelers have a better overall defense despite all the problems the Steelers have had in their secondary. The Ravens do not shut the run down as well as the Steelers defense does they are very vulnerable against the run which is something the Steelers are not...The Steelers are also number 1 in the league in turnover ratio as well and the Ravens are not even in the top 10 I believe...
