These next 4 games seem winnable now.

[Redman443]

I really feel like after a horrendous start to the season where we competed with the best teams in the league and just couldn’t finish, we are finally starting to get back on track. The next few games at one time seemed tough but now they look winnable.

Next week @panthers- have to face Gilmore just weeks after trading him, regardless the panthers started off 4-0 and lost 3 straight until yesterday. I’ve heard darnold is in the concussion protocol so he may not play.


Vs Browns- they were expected to be one of the best teams in the AFC in the preseason but they’ve had an up and down season losing to the Steelers yesterday and have the same record as us.


@Falcons- they’re not a good team and haven’t really been the same since 28-3.


Vs titans- never want to see anyone get hurt but there are reports Derrick Henry suffered a season ending injury which completely changes the dynamic of this game.


None of these games are guaranteed wins but at one time it seemed tough and now it looks a little easier.

Calvin Ridley also took a personal indefinite leave of absence from the falcons.

 

[Pape]

having the panthers win yesterday was a good thing... they arent going to be as chippy as they would have been after a 4 game slide... Its a game we should definitely be competitive in... just don't know too much about them though...

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

With Henry injury and the browns falling apart, they are all games I probably lean towards expecting to win going in. This team needs to show more consistency though to feel completely confident, they still can lose to any of these teams too. 3 out of 4 would be acceptable, anything less and were in trouble with both bills games left and 6+ losses

yeah last year we beat the Chargers and got back to .500 only to be smoked by the Rams and it fell apart after that. Granted there was a clear talent gap between that team and many others. Cam couldnt throw the ball longer than 10 yards and our best reciever was Damiere Byrd who isnt even on the roster anymore.

Our best WR was jakobi then and it is now. But yes, this year’s team is levels more talented than last year’s.

We can win any of these but don't count on it. The NFL is weird especially teams like the Chargers coming off a bye week. I always feel like a bye is great for your injured players but it's a let off in the grind for the rest.

I think it needs to be at least a 3-1 stretch over the next 4 games to stay in playoff contention, 4-0 would be fantastic. BB led teams of years past got it together in the month of October or november. I know some people will argue that was only because he had TB12 but in the first few years, TB was not the same guy he was today, he was more of a game manager.

 

[Kontradiction]

I’m thinking we will probably go 3-1 against that schedule. The loss will either come against Cleveland (good defense even with the offense limping) or the Tits.

 

[sb1]

8-4 and the Bills will start to hear footsteps. I don't think we're there yet.

 

[jdlboot14]

The worst part about the last 2 weeks is that now my hopes are building to where I actually expect us to be able to win each game.

 

[TheRainMaker]

With or without Darnold, it’s a winnable game.

As much as Cleveland is falling apart, that game will be tough.

Falcons is very winnable.

Let’s see how Tannehill does without his cheat code in Henry. I think he reverts back to Miami Tannehill without a running game.

Both statements are truthy.

It seems we're playing better than expected and it seems other teams are playing worse than expected, but that can change in an instant.

I still worry since I still see us give up big plays on D like the 75 yard run yesterday, and still see big drives killed due to fumbles like the Bourne play.

Clean that stuff up and we can be really good.

Yet the big play thing seems to be at least partially due to oldness/slowness at the LB and I don't know if that can be fixed any time soon.

 

[zimmy]

Go 3-1 and things will be positively giddy around here.

1st year he was a game manager, not the subsequent years. TB was fantastic after the first year.

Curran thinks Pats can go 5-0 in the next 4 games

Cleveland and the Tits sounds like an Elton John tune

I think this is a fair goal. The Brady Patriots would win all 4 games. This team has yet to find the consistency to win all its winnable games. Still, I am optimistic, and 8 - 5 with upcoming games against Indy, Jax and Miami is not a bad place to me.

 

[Joey007]

Henry being out is a huge break for us vs. Tennessee. I would not have trusted us in that matchup.

I’ll be thrilled if we get out of that 7-5.

 

[Hyped]

The thing I hate the most is the Bills' remaining schedule: @JAX, @NYJ, IND, @NO, NEP, @TBB, CAR, @NEP, ATL, and NYJ.

We need to hope that the freaking Jets knock them down a peg....not entirely IMPOSSIBLE as the Titans and Bengals found out...but that would be GRAVY on top. The Saints could be competitive with their defense, but they ain't scoring on the BIlls. Then there's the Bucs who I think can keep pace with the scoring at least. Outside of NYJ/JAX/ATL...maybe Carolina and Indianpolis will be competitive, but the games are at Rich Stadium...er...New Era...whatever it is called these days....

I think the Pats have to SWEEP the Bills for any chance at the division....ouch! That week 1 loss to Miami REALLY HURTS......****...we could be 5-3 right now...
