That you did, a 13-0 blowout in the final game of the season, congrats. Funny thing is, that 11th win was still not good enough for you to make the playoffs. I know, I know, we haven't made the playoffs in 10 years. Maybe this year with an 8-8 record we'll be able to back our way into the playoffs like the Chargers did last season.

Does anybody really think that Tom Brady is not going to be ready for this game? He has something to prove and the Bills are an excellent team to show that he is back.

Oh and they are starting with the Bills are going 12-4 again, and that they will win the first seven games.

Better than Comedy Central, the Bills boards.

Yeah, fans of a team getting excited during the offseason. Wow, crazy stuff there man.

All I know is that the Bills haven't been to the playoffs and are on pace for their 2nd most season ticket sales and the only time more season tickets was during the midst of the Super Bowl years. We have the best fanbase in football.

And I'm sure there will be the brilliant shots about the city of Buffalo to follow, but we are what the NFL should be about. I realize there are some great, die hard Pats fans that I have personally met, but in the pre Bledsoe years, I remember a lot of quarter filled Foxboro Stadiums. It's easy to be a fan after winning a championship.

Basically if the Bills fail = his fault

In order for this to turn out his way the Bills need to win a playoff game AND he'll need pro-bowl stats in the process.
Unfortunately for Bills fans TO's stats came while he was a member of very good offensive teams with solid starting QB's, something the Bills don't have. TO's numbers will be a reflection of this.

I kinda feel sorry for TO this year.

Good point. Jeff Garcia and Tony Romo were superstar, annual pro bowl QBs before TO. Oh wait, Garcia was palying for the first time in the NFL after being in Canada for the start of his career and Romo was an UDFA. But good, valid point there.

Edwards is young QB, who had ups and downs last year. If he stays healthy (and that's been a big If for him), he will have a breakout year. At lot easier to cover Evans when you're other threats are Josh Reed (a good #3) and Robert Royal.

Look at all the threads here about going 16-0 again. This kind of stuff happens on every teams board, homers just don't notice it when it's their team because they agree.

And I think TO is so overrated it's not funny. The guy is 35 and he's just a cancer. I haven't actually looked at the Bills but the law of averages says they can't keep going 7-9 forever, right?

If overrated is a guy with 1,000 + yards and 10 tds after playing with 67 year old Brad Johnson for 3 games, I'll take that every day for 6.5 million.

Check TO's stats for his first year with a new team. He's not coming back next year, so he will be playing for his last contract. Are you confident enough to bet against a motivated TO playing with the best receiver he's had since Jerry Rice on the other side? I won't.

Damn, if you guys won 11 games you would burn Buffalo down in celebration. Don't worry about Tom Brady, he is somebody you guys don't have, a player with heart who has something to prove. Every pro football annual has the Bills at best 7-9, most have them 5-11.

The delusions of Buffalo Bills fans continue.

Will miracle's never cease. We made it to 4 straight SB's and the city of Buffalo is still standing. A goal post might come down if we make the playoffs but that'll be the extent of it. Tom Brady still has something to prove? 3 SB's wins is not enough? Tom Brady will prove something this season without a doubt, that he can be beaten.

Too bad wishful thinking doesn't count.

Talk about wishful thinking. How is it that Patriots fans on this message board are already claiming a Super Bowl victory when they haven't even been to training camp yet?

I feel good about our playing TO.... Springs

Maybe because almost every preseason pro football annual is picking the Patriots to win the Super Bowl this year. At least we have a basis for our hopes.

What do you guys got, Edwards, TO, and Jauron? Good luck with that.
