tito1 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Today feels exactly like the day after the Atlanta Falcons game last year. I want to call off work, I can't stop thinking of the JJ Watt and obvious PI on last offensive play. I drank too much yesterday an I can't stop thinking about how we were in PERFECT position to reach 3-1 or 4-0, we are now 2-2 with a qb controversy. This is going to be a long long week and I don't see how we win in Detriot next week. We have to steal the detriot and / or New England game to save this season. Hope KC takes care of NE tonight to at least keep this interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have collectively rationalized that the great week 1 to week 2 stretch was the peak. It was way too good to continue. Thanks Terry for keeping the pain at home.

Yeah - it's only a game but for some reason I get too emotionally invested in a team that seems to always find a way to lose. I need an outlet to get over this sooner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5 Wide Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Becoming a father 10 months ago makes watching EJ Manuel much easier. Whenever I watch him try to aim a football shotput or just bail out on a play, I look at my son playing happily on the floor and realize it's just a game.

xsoldier54 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I have become less emotionally invested as I have gotten older, but it is still frustrating to watch your team blow a very winnable game. The discouraging thing about this loss is that EJ's poor play is continuing and I don't see him ever being better than what he is right now. This season will only get worse with him at the helm and they will continue to lose, which definitely puts a damper on my Sunday football viewing.

I said it multiple times yesterday but I hate being a Bills fan. It's the worst kind of addiction. You get maybe 6 weeks of euphoria a year and 46 weeks of depression. Sheesh Heroin treats its addicts better than that. (I kid of course....kind of) Becoming a father 10 months ago makes watching EJ Manuel much easier.

It will be a welcome distraction! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tito1 Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 I am coming up to Buffalo for the New England game. I just wanted to be in possession of first place with a lot on the line. At this point, not looking good. My emotions would turn if we could somehow steal one in Detriot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clearwater cadet Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I feel like crap, when you know that they suck, its easier to take, but when you get your hope up and the same old bills show up its hard to take on the chin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF Bills Fan Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I wouldn't say it ruins my week, but it tempers my enthusiasm for football. If they win, I can't get enough. I analyze the Bills win, watch replays and watch Monday night football. If they lose, I block it out. I'll get excited again on Saturday evening.

As soon as EJ threw the INT, my little boy and I switched over to The Incredibles on Apple TV. I instantly started enjoying my afternoon instead of wallowing in Bills-related sorrow. It helps that I enjoy kids movies as much as my kid does. My only real worry ever was the Bills leaving. Now they're not. So I'm good. Life's too short.

C-Man Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I agree. Sunday was bad because I finally admitted that EJ is not the answer. If he had pulled that game out, I would have been happy, but deep down, I know the kid ain't right. I am more annoyed about the Charger game. I felt 100% going into that. We missed a chance to make a statement. Laying an egg like we did told me that we are not as good as I thought we were. Orton needs to start. The rest of the roster can't go to waste while we wait for the kid. He is really a nice kid, but I feel we are no better than the Jets, Jag, or Raiders right now. MAKE THE MOVE!
