First off you never played Watson, Savage played both games(week 1 starter than Watson torn ACL).  Second Wilson lost by less than a td traveling out east which is always impossible.  I'll give you the big Ben thing 5 picks and all but dude your strength of schedule says it all.  You did not play anyone tough

Before I even answer your points directly, I want to emphasize we beat more teams with winning records (4-Pittsburgh, Seattle, Chargers and Baltimore) than the Bills (2-Atlanta and KC).  Any further discussion on this point is within this context of your spectacular wrongness.

As to your point above, we DID play Watson in week one.  He rode the pines in the first half, and played the entire second half.  He put up one touchdown and got sacked four times, threw an INT.  There were several other plays he somehow escaped pressure and completed passes.  https://www.pro-football-reference.com/b...100htx.htm  If you want to blame us for Houston's bad decision, fine, but don't say we didn't play against him.

As for Wilson traveling east, the game wasn't as close as the final score indicated.  Twice we had double digit leads on Seattle.  Don't hand me that stuff about him traveling west, either.  The game was moved to 4 pm.

It's awfully benevolent of you to give us credit for the 5 INTs we got on Big Ben.

But strength of schedule says nothing for your point, when we actually beat twice the number of winning teams as you did.
