Optimist - Out of the 4 teams we play in the rest of our schedule Dallas won 2 games by less than 5 points and the Jets won 2 games by less than 3 so they could easily have losing schedules. Therefore we only play two games against teams with winning schedules out of the next 10.

All of this BS panic about the Bills... Really? The Bills? The Bills are 3-4 and one dimensional, they have a running game.

Why is it we are giving the Bills credit for games they lost because they were close and they "could" have won, yet we take credit from the Saints for winning close games because we "could" have lost?

We won because we found way to win and the Bills lost because they couldn't. Finding a way to win is how a great team is defined.

I think its just an overly detailed way of saying on any given Sunday a team can beat you if you don't bring your A-game.

We'll be favored in 8 of our next 10 games for a reason.
