yeah, i actually think they will... not a lot more i don't think, but they will hit 25 for sure

 

[Lacaar]

I think they clean up at the end of the year when teams are eliminated or take them for granted so sure.

Any time we play a team that's playing meaninful games.. we'll lose.
Any time we play a team that's out of it or perhaps secured their spot.. we probably win.

 

[Asher]

They won 32 in '11-'12 and finished 29th.
They won 25 in '10-'11 and finished 30th.
They won 27 in '09-'10 and finished 30th.

They should win 25 this year.

 

[McShogun99]

I'm going with 35-40. Once were mathematically eliminated from the playoffs we will go on a winning streak to make sure we don't draft an impact player.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

15. It would make me laugh.

 

[ManByng]

i'm hoping for 35, but we'll see.

Lol. Damn.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

30-35 games
anymore and its a good season (all things considered)

 

[Wheathead]

In between 20-25 games.

It'll be a struggle because we're in the west.

 

[Oilfan2]

I'd say 23....

 

[The Human Torch]

I'd be surprised to see them break 20.

Could be a very ugly month.We could easily have 10-15 regulation losses from this month.

 

[I am the Liquor]

Ill go with 11, maybe 12. Basically one win a month for the rest of the season.

 

[thadd]

There's no way we fail to win 25 games.

 

[T-Funk]

There's no way we fail to win 25 games.

Challenge?

 

[AlowlyMcOilersfan]

They'll only win 24.

 

[Seedling]

Challenge?

We need an eating popcorn emote.

I say 23 wins.

 

[Suxnet]

They'll surpass all expectation....













...and win 26.

 

[thadd]

Challenge?

We just had our worst start in franchise history, didn't we?

This team isn't THAT bad. Our team has a helluva lot more useful players now than we did when he totally blew chunks. There's no way we're going to walk out of this season with less than 60 points.

Unless that is... all of the kids get hurt and Dubby checks himself into a mental institution.

[Up the Irons]

[Asher]

Will Buffalo win 20 games this year?

So is this acceptance of T-Funk's challenge? Sure looks like it.

60 points means 30 wins. So is the bet that you say we get 60 pts, wins whatever, and T-Funk says we do not get 25?

What's the agreed upon threshold? I suggest 27 since you say 60 points. Split the difference basically.
