The Bills: Historically bad?

by Steve

Haha.. yeah the Buffalo Bills aren't going to to lose this week. HEY OOO! Plus we as Bills fans get to actually watch some good football the whole weekend. We won't be subjected to an awful 0-5 team with no upside, draft busts all over the place and an old mediocre head coach. The only question for the rest of the season other than if Aaron Maybin can get the field is whether the Bills are historically bad, meaning 0-16.

The defense is clearly inept. Any time the team needs a stop or a big play or even a freakin sack the Bills D will fail. The change to 3-4 was a blunder of all blunders. There may not be one player in the front 7 that is a capable 3-4 player. The team has six total sacks this season( two are from DBs one from a player that got cut). They can't get to the quarterback, they can't get any pressure and it kills any chance of the secondary playing well. Then again even if there was pressure wouldn't our safeties still get burned? This defense is the worst in the league and may be the worst of the decade.

Unfortunately, or fortunately if you want the Bills to run the table in reverse, the offense may be equally as abysmal. How is there still no tightend on the roster worth mentioning (7 total receptions by a TE this season)? Nix and co. knew Nelson would be out at least 4 games and your only other tight end is named Stupar. Jeez, bring someone else in. The offensive line is bad. There is no depth and the tackles are not starting caliber. Ryan Fitzpatrick is Ryan Fitzpatrick a subpar journeyman loser. For every good play he makes there are two that kill the team.

Basically this team could easily lose their next eleven games. Let's take a quick look at the schedule:

Week 7 - @ Baltimore
Easily a loss, even more of a reason it is a definite L, I'll be there.

Week 8 - @ Kansas City
Much better than the Bills at this point. They still aren't good but have way more talent, we could keep it close but definitely will lose in a tough environment.

Week 9 - Chicago in Toronto
This game will be ugly and could be played in front of the worst audience of all time. The Bills don't win in Toronto.

Week 10 - Lions
First chance the Bills have of winning a game. The crowd will be a non-factor but the Lions don't ever win on the road. Stafford may torch us and we will be a dawg at home to Detroit, ouch.

Week 11 - @ Cincinnati
Cinci isn't good but the Bills are much worse and aren't winning a game on the road.

Week 12 - Pittsburgh
Rapelisraper makes his return to Buffalo and will kill us and prob rape some chicks.

Week 13 - @ Minnesota
Bret might be IR'd by this time but that dome is loud. If Minny has any playoff chance this will be a blow out even against Tarvaris.

Week 14 - Cleveland
This may be the #1 pick bowl. Cleveland has won three straight but Colt McCoy? Hmm tough to predict. Hopefully Brohm is in by now.

Week 15 @ Miami
Rivalry but we aren't winning on the road c'mon.

Week 16 - New England
Make that 15 straight L's v N.E.

Week 17 - @ Jets
0-15 against a team with probably nothing to play for? Will we have the #1 overall locked up by now? Could be a game we would win.

1-15 Billieve it
