thecoz77 Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Doesn't it? I wish we sucked to the point of blowouts, but we suck to the point of last minute losses. This is mind numbing.
Jerry Jone's Toupee Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Got that old "just kicked in the gut" feeling again.
Chimp Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Got that old "just kicked in the gut" feeling again. A little lower. Buck up nancy its only been 13 seasons Well played sir
Dr. Fong Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Say what you want, this team is better than last year. They still have a distance to go, but I think EJ is the real deal and I think things are looking up.

major Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 I kept telling my wife that we are leaving New England too much time to go and kick a field goal. This crap always gets old. A loss is a loss and this one hurts due to it being a divisional foe. There isn't any moral victory in a loss. Teams that talk about moral victories are losing franchises. Our coach cost us the game today by not managing the clock, sticking with spiller, etc... And Stevie helped us lose too. Yes, it's been old for over a decade
Dr. Fong Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 We beat the spread by 8 points. I guess you'd rather they go out there and roll over when they got down 10-0. You had a rookie coaching staff with a rookie QB. It doesn't always happen right away. I know it's been a long road for us fans and there have been plenty of false optimism in the past, but I choose to remain positive. The offense looked good for the most part. EJ wasn't scared and if SJ could focus and catch the ball it might have been different. On defense they played a lot more physical than I've seen in a while. Without their two best DBs they kept the Bills in the game. It would have been nice to get the stop on that final drive, but how many defenses have given up a game winning drive to Brady? A lot.
Bangarang Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 We definitely needed another doom thread.

kasper13 Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 I'd rather they go out and actually win a game that's there for the taking. Stop the penalties. Stop the mistakes. Coach the game better. Stop the damn small white WR for the Patriots. Pick a QB, pick a coach, pick a player that chokes at any time over the last 13 years and it's the same ending. Only the names and the year change. It's not different. It's the same. They win that game today and it's an entirely different story. All Patriots fans are saying is they played like garbage today, not that the Bills were any good and yet they still won. For it to truly change, the outcome on the scoreboard has to be different.
Wazzu Bill Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 There's no room here for a moral victory. Bills had the chance but choked in the fourth quarter like usual. Terribly heart breaking...
ALLEN1QB Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 losing a game that we should have won is just as bad if not worse is getting our asses kicked.
KRT88 Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Doesn't it? I wish we sucked to the point of blowouts, but we suck to the point of last minute losses. This is mind numbing. Even though I knew it was coming, it still sucks just the same, at 10-0 down I felt more OK than I do right now.
thecoz77 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Posted September 8, 2013 Even though I knew it was coming, it still sucks just the same, at 10-0 down I felt more OK than I do right now. Precisely. And then off to the grocery store, and see multiple Brady jerseys to rub it in (I live in the south, so the fairweather fans are always out en masse)
ThurmasThoman Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Well, it's 6:45pm EST, and im over it, so that loss took about 2.5 hours to recover from. Rookie QB, coach, and offensive coordinator--losing at home to a division rival by 2 points. Next weeks game is more of a litmus test, in my opinion. If we can beat the panthers at home, maybe we do have a wildcard run in us.
BillnutinHouston Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Nothing changes until Ralph passes. Quite the insightful analysis. Is Ralph responsible for Stevie dropping that 3rd down pass?
