Re: How tough is your team's 2014 schedule?

Bills have a .500 schedule based on last years projection.

On this schedule I see only two teams the Bills cannot beat, the Broncos and Packers. I think the Bills will split with New England, and this year might be the best in a while to actually win in Gillette for the first time ever.

On the other side I think the Browns, Raiders and Vikings are easy wins. The Vikings I'm least sure about however because the Bills cannot stop the run.

Division games I always split because anything can happen. Every other game is a toss up. So at best the Bills go 13-3, at worst, 3-13. They most likely go 7-9 after several heartbreaking fourth quarter collapses against the teams we aren't supposed to beat, and a few beatdowns by teams we should have beat. So much optimism!!!

Heh, spoken as a true Bills fans. I see it exactly the same way as you. It'll probably end up being a 9-7 year in the end but i'm hoping they can at least get 10 wins this coming season.

May want to take a closer look at what the Browns are doing this offseason. Depending on who they end up with at QB they should be very competitive. I haven't seen the Bills schedule though so I hope that game is at least at home for that kind of confidence.

Cowboys have the potential to both beat any team and get completely blown out any given week, so the schedules normally mean nothing to me. We fans already know what's in store for the year: pain and tears.

Texans have an easy schedule on paper but it doesn't matter because people who saw Houston and Atlanta on the schedule last April were like "****, two hard games" and look what happened.

we have a pretty hard schedule the 1st 6 weeks of the season we could be 0-6 and I've heard some say we have a easy schedule in middle but we played some those teams last yr and lost to them as we'll.


so if we have a good offense and defense we could I say maybe 8-8 but I have a feeling some how we'll go 4-12 again seems like were stuck on that record. and hopfully we don't play musically qb again this yr that's one record I don't think any team will break the most starting qbs starting for one franchise I think we've had something like 30??? since 99 lmfao.

5th easiest schedule in the league, yet they'll manage to lose 4-5 games that should be winnable. I hate seeing the Ravens have a relatively easy schedule. I prefer a tough road to avoid building false hope. As bad as it may sound, I'm more worried about the Browns this coming season than any other team on the schedule.

It all depends on which Giants team shows up any given Sunday...

That being said, we could start 4-7 and win the division at 9-7. Most likely is 9-7, and, as long as none of those losses are our annual division Stink Games, that could win the division, and the G-Men are dangerous in the playoffs...

And yet another new head coach with another new system and new QB and new waterboy and....

We've been stuck in expansion mode since 1999.

First of all I'll say this, we got screwed on week 1 and 2, it's bad enough it's a short week, but going from a division rival to THE division rival? C'mon now.. Beyond that, I genuinely feel like we could open up the season in excellent fashion.
Depending on our play of course, we could open up the season anywhere from 6-0 to 3-3... I just don't see us losing to Cleveland or Jacksonville.Tampa Bay's defense has definitely improved but we've never had too much of an issue against Chicago when led by Lovie Smith.
They've been physical games but that's really about it. With a power running attack back in Pittsburgh, I like our chances against Tampa Bay's defense and their offense doesn't scare me at all right now.
Carolina is sort of a wild card. There is no denying their dominant defense but their offense is hit or miss. They're capable of putting up 40+ points, they're capable of being held to less than 10.
Baltimore, well, it's Baltimore, we usually split those games so it's really hard to say right now whether that's a win or a loss. I see at least 11 games on that schedule we can and frankly, probably should win. There's no excuse this season for missing the playoffs.
