Strange I know but my second favourite team if there is such a thing is the Bills.
Would love for Jackson and Johnson to wear blue and silver.

If they can knock off the Jets in W1 (big if) that would be a great start. I expect a W in the home opener vs KC, and a W @ CLE. If they can split with NE and split out west with ARI/SF (back to back weeks and they've already said they'll stay out there to reduce travel fatigue) they should be in good shape. A loss to HOU and a W vs TEN @ home would put them at 5-4.
Not unreasonable. Not a given by any stretch, but not out of the question either.
Kansas City should be a much better team than either Buffalo or New York. Don't go penciling that one in.

Everyone has their own opinion. I happen to disagree with you on this particular point.
I love the way the Bills match up with KC and expect them to win convincingly in their home opener. Way more concerened about the W1 match up vs NYJ. They kicked our ass last year and it sucked.

Expecting to split with NE after getting the 1st win in 10 years, split out West, beat the Jets, KC, and Tenn all teams that were better than you last year really is the best possible scenario, not a reasonable one.

Please... break down your take for me. I'm interested, because I see the Chiefs as a very good team if the injured players from last year all return healthy. As of now, I've got the Chiefs winning the AFCW.

The Bills put up 55 pts on NE last year. Arizona is not a juggernaught and certainly can be had. The Bills blew KC out of the water last year. They lost to Tenn on a called back Spiller TD for a phantom holding call.
I don't think beating ARI, TENN, KC, and splitting with NE is best possible scenario. IMO that's a reasonable expectation. It may not break that way, but it's certainly there for the taking.

We will disagree that your idea of beating 4 teams that are better than you is reasonable.
I think they are a few years away to be a contender but as long as they move up and get a QB, Fitz is not the answer. They have lots of good players, besides every team thinks they are great after the draft, and there is no way they are worst than the jets.

Sure thing.
Keep in mind that it's April, but looking quickly JC shouldn't get much inside as KW and MD are superior to Lilja/Hudson/Asamoah. JC will pose some probs outside but expect those to be limited once the inside is closed off. Bowe/Breaston are solid but play right into what the Bills like to do on D and size should not be a issue anymore with two fast physical corners over 6'. moeki and Boss are solid but one of them will have to stay in a chip unless KC thinks Albert and Winston can handle Williams/Kelsay/Anderson 1 on 1. I don't think either of those tackles can do that.
On D, the Bills should be able to run down KCs throat with Spiller and Fred, which should help either Hairston or Glenn limit Hali's damage. Berry is nasty and should limit Campbell and Nelson over the middle, but KC does not have the horses to stop Spiller and Jackson, which should get SJ13 in some 1 on 1's with Routt (advantage Bills).
Poe is a nice addition, but with Wood healthy he should not a be a factor. The Bills should be able to run on KC at will if they can get a hat on Derrick Johnson. It's a matchup that favors Buffalo.
