Most games I want to see a win and reasons to believe we're a contender for a deep playoff run. Against the Pats I only want the win, no matter how. 2-0, don't care.
I think we, the fans, project our insecurities onto the coaches and players. The vast majority of this team weren't Buffalo Bills as recently as 2017 and don't have even 10% the inferiority complex regarding the Patriots as the fans do.
