    Trubisky -- where does he end up?

    in The Stadium Wall

    Posted

    I believe he will get paid double of what he makes now and stay with a winner. He had 50 games where he was under a media microscope and he knows how brutal that is. Got paid in Chicago. Now he runs scout team, holds clipboard and made 2.5 mill. Next year he will get 5 mill and count it while eating a donut a sipping his Tim Hortons.

    3 out of 4 road teams won last weekend. So I will go off on a tangent.

     

    I thought to myself today "Was I happier went they sucked?" When they were bad there was always the potential for bluer skies but my expectations were low. Now I/we have extremely high expectations and that is a slippery slope which doesn't allow us as fans any breathing room as it's SB or bust. I am not making excuses for the team and I have said it in other threads, it's easy to second guess and wonder what if, the fact is decisions were made and they didn't pan out.  We should remember the many many lean years as a reminder of how bad it was and relish the fact that we have a quality team that has given us meaningful football deep into January and should do so for the foreseeable future. So to answer my own question. I am happier now because they are a relevant, exciting, dynamic football team. Whether there is a Lombardi Trophy in their future is uncertain, but that's why they play and we watch and love the game!

    Are we over-reacting to the 13 seconds?

    Yep.  We lost a coin-flip game in a weird way.  It sucks, but man some of the people on this forum seem to think that the 2021 Bills are the first team to lose a playoff game.  

    Agreed. The Bills lost in a more dramatic fashion than the other three divisional games but not by much. Those all had WTF moments that the losing fanbases have been chewing on for the last three days

    Sure but the coaches clearly screwed up and they know it and is why McDermott wont explain why because he doesn't throw guys under the bus. I dont need to comfort myself with we played a great and its ok. Its not ok and they need to take responsibility, which im sure they did in house, but we won this game and is inexcusable that we lost.

     

     

    I'm not disagreeing with you. I'm trying to be more objective. Maybe I'm a little further along the five stages of grieving. 😉

    Their drive before, they went 75 yard in five plays to take the lead. Before that the huge punt return and we were fortunate to hold them to 3 points. It is ok to say they are a damn good team, we had our shot, we were fortunate and got some breaks to get back in that game and it just didn't pan out.  I hate that they lost and it's easy to try and find blame to make us feel better.

     

    Josh with two time outs and 13 seconds gets Bass a shot. I truly believe that. 

     

    The Great Squib Kickoff Controversy - Have reviewed the film like it was Zapruder

    I love you all . .. .  and like you I have dissected and dissected and reran the last two plays over and over and my head is going to explode with the thoughts of what if or what could have been. Nothing is going to change the result and that is what really sucks. Big bite of a sh#t sandwich with the musty taste lingering until at least the draft or a KC loss in the next two weeks.

    Miscommunication on Kick Off

    in The Stadium Wall

    Posted

    Still gutted. But the kick off was not the issue. Defensive scheme on the next two plays was the death blow. The fact that #10 turns a five yard pass into a 19 yard gain- mind boggling. Then the next  play allows TE to run unmolested for 23 yards reception - utter atrocity. (Their names deliberately omitted). Madden rolled over in his grave muttering his famous "prevent defense" quote. He was right!

    I think Shaq Lawson will add some juice to the pash rush. While he may not lead the team in tackles I am certain the team will be inspired by his performance. Want to thank trainwreck sports for tipping us off on him being back with the team. I believe he will be sitting around the 50 yard line .. shirt-less to really get the guys going..

    LMAO!! Well done!
