You went there, eh? I should've chosen a career in marketing instead. Lewd ads are hilarious!

Well, sure, and I said the same a handful of responses ago. For me, having watched this team lose so many close games including (and after) the Music City Miracle, watching them close this one out was a satisfying way to spend the afternoon. Having some Knob 9 is a lot smoother now.

Pats' fans, and I say this is a WNY native who's lived in New England for a long time, are the biggest whiners on the planet. You should've seen that forum during Deflategate, when they were talking about the 1st, 4th, and 6th amendments. I never knew there were that many constitutional lawyers here!

You and me both, but losing is losing, and thankfully the Bills came out of today with a W.

I'm enjoying the "I'd rather lose in a blowout" comment.

I'd go with B/B-, but Josh wasn't the problem today.

Yeah, so? I admit that this game had shades of the 2004 season finale to me. I felt that the Bills could/would win but this one went down to the wire. If anything, it's a game that I saw this team lose from 2000-this year more often than not.

Haha, no. Not at all. I'm glad that they won (I've written it twice in separate threads now), like really, really glad. But in addressing the negatives I have to state what I've observed.

As I promised a couple of weeks ago, I'm not going to harp on the McD aspect of things until after the season is over. I think that given the parameters of the squad for the remainder of the season, a ton of their future success is going to come down to coaching. What continues to bug me is that when something is working -- then something else gets thrown into the gameplan. Run left? Working. Run left again? Working. QB sneak? Flea flicker? OMG, so weird, and does not make sense. When I used to play baseball, I was a fastball/curveball pitcher. My FB would top at maybe 91 or 92, but usually averaged around 86 or 87. When my curve worked it would bite hard and I'd strike guys out. My best games were when I threw the same pitch most (if not all) of the game because it was working. I do not know or understand why this team gets cute and abandons what works.

Can you expound on this?

Not a playoff contender? Time will tell. I will say this, though. 5 years ago this team would've lost this game with 100% certainty.

I wasn't thrilled with many aspects of this game, but beating the Pats is always worth even an ugly effort -- so Monday will be a happy one. Now on to bourbon!

I'll take it.

This is going to require a LOOONG drive. And a TD.

Just run your mouse over the icon and you'll get a popup where ignore user is specified. Then have at it!

Huh, well this game is not what I expected. I still think that, short of a total collapse, the Bills should win. As a positive, just added 3 people to ignore. So now my list has 3 on it.

Can the Bills score 7 or less points and win this game? I believe so. Gotta keep moving the chains though.

BOOMski.

I admit that my butt is kind of Chappy Sinclair'ed right about now.

Keep it rolling, boys. Not ready for a Bass moment yet. It's too early in the day for heart palpitations.

This has an Attica vibe to it.

If there was ever a Raiders of the Lost Ark, "don't look at it" moment, where you get to (a) take a quick peek at the Ark, and (b) live to fight another day and more -- it's this game.

Yes, I have, but there's only one kicker whose performance I care about.

According to my grandfather it was a loaded Caprice, and this is the only thing that makes sense -- because he sold Chevys (not Cadillac, only Chevy). Given that my Depression-era grandparents, my grandfather serving in Italy in WWII, owned nothing when my mom was a kid, a little more than nothing when they bought their first house after the war, downsized as they lived in an apartment before moving to Florida, then lived with basically with one step above nothing when they sold their house in Florida, anything is possible -- and now that I'm thinking about it the OJ signed picture was last seen in 1979 or so. I would seriously not be surprised if they purged it when OJ was no longer in Buffalo and they were planning to leave town for retirement.

Regarding the Patriots and the release of Tom Brady: I could not be more pleased with their demise!
