they're an average team with average players."

The fact of the matter is that you wouldn't have posted this if we were 4-0 right now. "it would read the same had they won". You're off your ass, and this is a direct response to yesterday's loss. It's just MORE MORE MORE MORE fickle Bills fans, it's like a pandemic around here. It really is stunning.

Some Respect Finally..#16...http://espn.go.com/nfl/powerrankings/_/year/2011/week/3 But we already knew the Pats are the true test.

I feel like we as Bills fans have a really short memory sometimes. Not, say, big games that hurt really bad and which our playoff hopes hinge upon. I'm talking about random games for the past 11 years, games which for one reason or another: fumbles, penalties, a random bounce/opposing interception/opposing amazing catch-kick, beat us in a game we had locked up. I wish there was a place I could go to watch us get screwed in the final 5 minutes of a game, because I think it has happened A LOT in the past 11 years, like more than everyone actually considers/knows/cares to dwell on. In fact, writing this post has made me want to go back in the records and just dissect the past 11 years...

They have us at 27th, at least we have a lot of support from the commenters--which is a first. http://espn.go.com/nfl/powerrankings/_/year/2011/week/2

Green Bay went 2-2 last preseason. All close games, except the one where they hung 59pts on the Colts in the 3rd game. Jets went 2-2. Not many high scoring affairs. Pittsburgh went 3-1 and Denver beat them handily. Chicago went 0-4. Those were the final four, so is there really any correlation at all?

My two Trent Edwards jerseys can attest to that

is like the couple who fights all the time and thinks that getting married will solve all of their problems. We're blowing this preseason and the team is imploding, but just wait until the REGULAR season.

These boards should be locked in between preseason games.

I was out at a bar and saw Evans make the catch for a TD and the first thing I thought was oh god a thread is being started on TBD before they even show the replay.

I mean, based on Buffalo's economic condition right now, we're fairly spoiled with an NFL team. There are other US cities that could probably financially support an NFL team better than us. Fans become so wrapped up in their teams that they forget this is a business, a multi-billion dollar one at that. And for a city that has a 9%+ unemployment rate, shouting about not signing an OL/TE to a multi-million, multi-year deal, doesn't make sense. Take what you can get, while you can get it, because no one is dumping money into this team anymore, it's just not happening. A Terry Pegula isn't stepping up to buy the Bills and Jim Kelly doesn't have a cache of rich friends waiting in the wings to scoop up the Bills. Face some reality, we can barely get a Peace Bridge rebuilt, they're not going to approve a new stadium. The writing is on the wall, whether is next year, five years or ten years away...it's going to happen. They're going to leave...and that sucks horribly.

Jimmy does it bother you that the Jets' D picked off Big Ben twice and held him to 133yds and 0 TDs...and you still lost? You'll always be the Giants' little brother.

So our seemingly strong D lets up 20+ points 13 times this season? I'm not a homer, but that doesn't make any sense. And what about that last Miami game? Just 13-7...no explanation? We just lose in December at home 13-7, but we somehow beat Miami in November?

They beat us by 3 in KC. I think that it's a PUSH in terms of odds of winning.
