Yes a very good win (and may be as close to a signature win as can be) but unfairly was too early in the season. But like many it maybe being disappointed in performances vs. KC, New England, Baltimore..... Where the scores aren't terrible, but the Bills are seemingly just not trading punches. It's like that championship boxing/UFC match that goes the distance, but the scorecards are one-sided, with the Champion never in serious trouble).

Nice win vs. teams they played that they had better records then when they played (Dallas & Pitt). Yes they too were national games, but against hugely flawed teams (Dallas Defense, Pitt Offense) that finished 8-8. Frankly though they had a very easy schedule in 2019 & had 5 games vs. teams over .500 NE x 2, Phil, Tenn & Balt. The Tenn game was before Tannehill was the starter & 4 missed fgs. In 2018 they were 1-8 vs. teams over .500 In 2017 they were 2-6

We're Bills fans. I look forward to every game. The point of the thread is that the last meaningful game the Bills won vs. NE was 2011 (2 other wins included last game of the year and Brady sat & other he was injured). Prior to that opening day 2003 and the 31-0 shellacking..... https://www.footballdb.com/teams/nfl/new-england-patriots/teamvsteam?opp=4 Some lousy losses, so excuse me if I think this is a game for the Bills not to lose (for their psyche and ours😜).

Because the playoff result was not unexpected. Even up 13-0 (16-0), the Bills refused to put the Texans away as was McD's coaching style. And then come OT they aloowed an underneath pass to convert a 3rd & 18 (So Bills). This is NE that has looked terrible the past 3 weeks and have toyed with the Bills for years. It would be a terrible loss imo.

Again it is just that it is the Patrs and narrative is there. A loss Sunday and yes it will be a national story and a good guffaw for all non-Bills fans. Because that was the Bills modus operandi the past 3 years with McD. score 14-20 points, relax come the third quarter and hope to hang on. Disappointing as that was, it was not unexpected.

Very simply, the Bills lose Sunday and I will annoint it as bad a loss as any since McD became coach. Forget the blowouts & playoff losses, the Bills can not afford to lose to the Patriots this week. I can't think of a game that will bother me more then if they get beaten by Belichek again.

Why the defense got it's mojo back
Billsfan1972 replied to Buffalo716's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Jets scored 28 points vs. the Broncos (though aided by 3 Ints). Offense has generated 320, 277, 254, 260, 285, 263 & 219 yards (268 avg) in 5 blowout losses and two games withing 9 points. I'd be careful to announce they got their "mojo" back.... -
I like to be entertained too.... I've stated it before, the Bills are my steam since 1972.... Watching them the last three years (2017-19) they have not been a fun team to watch (particularly on Offense). How people continually defend the 30th, 29th & 24th ranked NFL Offense, just amazes me. Add to that one of the easiest 2019 schedules too.

Duck Hodges was in because Kyle Rudolph was injured if I remember. Tennessee was not a good team when they played them early in the season and ended the season 9-7..... Wow also anothe rvictory over an 8-8 team (Dallas) is considered a big one. Miami beating NE last year knocking them from a bye in NE is a signature win. Minnesotta was 8-7-1 the year the Bills beat them..... Sure Atl was 3-0 in 2017...... Let's call that the signature win.....
