Give it a month and see if you can still say that.

The results of the poll tell us recency bias is a real thing with 66% currently saying it’s McD’s worst loss. I’m sick and tired of hearing about 13 seconds (and hope some of you seek help) but I’ve put that in the rear view mirror. There’s no way a regular season loss in Miami is worse than that. .

To answer the question…..not very far.

I don’t gamble, but I think that’s a good bet.

Am I in time?????

When I was a kid, I remember the Bills being my life. The mood of the community was affected by how the Bills did that weekend. That was for 14 Sundays a year. A few highs, but mostly lows during that time. Now we are much older and we have a lot of other adult things going on in our lives. I still follow the Bills closely, but it’s not like it used to be. I don’t live and die by them. I’ve been to 2 Bills games this year, both night games. I hate night games for a variety of reasons , and I found myself wondering why I was there. It was strange, and new for me. The Bills are a thing for me now, not THE thing. I like a good discussion as much as the next guy. I am painfully aware of things I’d like to see fixed. For better or worse, the board is a lot like the outside world with very vocal extremes. That leads to a lot of anger and even some venom and name-calling. That’s not discussion anymore with where some of this goes. I blocked a handful of posters after the opener. That helped to get rid of that much pure negativity. It’s a weird place for me to be right now. I don’t mind the Bills as much as some of the fans.* *Nothing personal to anyone, honestly. We’re just different, that’s all. .

I’d take him over Gruden.

If Gruden is a part of the Bills organization, I’ll take some time off from anything Bills related. He was mad that his emails were released. Guess what! He should really be upset that he is the person he exposed as the author of those emails. I’ve also had personal experience from when our kids used to have 7 on 7’s in high school. He’s a ^&%$. Also, it seemed most of the Bu’cs hated him from his days there when he won with Tony Dungy’s team because the Raiders were too stupid and or lazy to change their signals before a Super Bowl. Rex is an idiot, but he does not personally offend me the way Gruden does.

Politicians running a football program sounds like great entertainment! But shouldn’t they just stick to doing one thing poorly?

Well, let’s be fair enough to pass the straight face test….he left because he became a HC. People hate on our OC’s, and then they either become a HC or we are expecting them to be a HC very soon. Are teams stupid enough to hire a new HC simply because he had Josh Allen as QB when they were an OC? Or might there be more to it. Hint: There is always more to it.

I thought the 1542 team was the toughest.

He and Rex should have a baby.

Okay, you got me. You meant in a scary way, and I missed that. Or, maybe we just have different taste on that one, and that’s ok too.

Our youngest dog’s name is Bella. She’s a little over 2 and a bit on the slow side. Sweet, but a very slow learner. Ask my furniture. My wife talks about changing her name tag to “Bella NO!” so she will recognize it if a stranger tries to talk to her. .

Yeah, that was probably it.

They didn’t get rid of him for no reason. The little diva went middle school mode on the team and on Josh. Keeping him might have been amusing in a reality TV way, but that’s not the entertainment I’m looking for. We will go all in on WR after this offseason like we went after defense this year. And they fixed the OLine before that. I really like Hoecht and some of the new guys on D. Our defensive backfield may finally get the speed and athleticism they need, and Walker could be the steal of the draft for ANY team. Time will tell, but I’m not jumping ship after 50+ years of this. .

Sometimes a loss can be FAR more entertaining than a win. 🤷‍♂️

I don’t think we are supposed to be people of reason today. Good thought, so maybe we can get back to this next week……. if we win. Otherwise it will be more of the same.

Calvin Ridley missed an entire season and lost $11.1 MIL in salary for some small time on-line wagers. All this while the NFL itself is in bed with and promoting FanDuel and similar enterprises. Sorry, this just has a nasty stink to it.

For that kind of money I could buy some friends!

Pete Rose just rolled over.

My greatest fear is that we will be relegated to the CFL. They have a lot of crazy rules to get used to.

I might take a break from being a Bills fan if that A-hole was a part of our program. I saw enough of him up close and personal when we were in the Tampa market when he won with Dungy’s team against the Raiders who were too stupid to change their calls against their old HC. He’s the same little jerk who blames other people for exposing him which booted him out of the league. He said that ****. That’s really him. Our kids had 7 on 7’s together, and I saw that little **** up close. Buc’s players had terrible things to say about him. He is not someone I would follow, but it might allow for me to make a complete break from the NFL.

You ask for a numerical answer to a non-mathematical question. With some other dangerous guys along the line, I’d say “some”.

True, but it’s not an answer to the question. With Ed and Hoecht I’d feel very different about our future. Just a healthy Ed if we get that far would help my peace of mind going into a game.
