Kipers Hair Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 In the NFL, there is no such thing as an embarrassing win.... Jacksonville won today for Gods sake....
Buffalo Beeeews Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 $9.99 Maggle Maggle fn cowalllllllllllll
negativo Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Yeah, nothing sucks worse than a miraculous comeback win on the last play of the game.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Wtf??? Winning is not ever embarrassing. Ever! Leave it to this board to construct moral losses on top of a win.....
Chuck Schick Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Also, how can you be embarrassed about something you have absolutely no control over?
Big Turk Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Doesn't matter...we won that is all that counts. Most games in previous seasons like this we lose and it became and embarrassing loss. At the end of the year, all you will see are W's and L's not how they happened. Plenty of teams play close games and barely beat teams they should have beaten much worse. You think the Patriots are crying because they barely beat the 0-5(6?) Raiders in a game they should have lost?
Slack_in_MA Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Wtf??? Winning is not ever embarrassing. Ever! Leave it to this board to construct moral losses on top of a win..... Day by day, I'm more convinced some people are more interested in being right than actual results. Sports, politics, you name it...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Day by day, I'm more convinced some people are more interested in being right than actual results. Sports, politics, you name it... This is correct!
Prickly Pete Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 (edited) These Bills are not a good team, they are just better than the Vikings (at least at home). I guess that's a positive, after a decade outside of the playoffs. If they were a proven winner, we could say "they had a tough game", but they aren't, so it's more like "even the loser's, get lucky sometimes". Who among the "I'll Take It's" wants to bet these Bills won't make the playoffs? Edited October 19, 2014 by HoF Watkins
Beerball Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 In the NFL, there is no such thing as an embarrassing win.... Jacksonville won today for Gods sake.... You could be right, but, today's Bills sure did their best to prove you wrong.
Felonious Monk Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Was New England's win over the Jets embarrassing, too? In the NFL, there is no such thing as an embarrassing win.... Jacksonville won today for Gods sake.... That was an embarrassing LOSS by the Browns.
DisplacedBillsFan Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Why, when other teams win despite penalties, turnovers, bad breaks, injuries, etc. it's because they are good teams, but when we do it it's an embarrassment? I don't get how some fans are negative no matter the outcome.

I don't get how some fans are negative no matter the outcome. Because they aren't playing well, and haven't pretty much all season. They have won games in ALL the previous 14 seasons, but still sucked, no?
Dorkington Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 We should have won that game more handily, the fact that we pulled it out after all the mistakes makes me feel pretty good, actually.
DisplacedBillsFan Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Because they aren't playing well, and haven't pretty much all season. They have won games in ALL the previous 14 seasons, but still sucked, no? The previous years' teams have sucked. I agree. I do not agree the 2014 Buffalo Bills suck. This is a very good football team finding its way.

This is a very good football team finding its way. I hope so too, but as I posted earlier, if they were a proven winner, I could say "oh they got away with that one, they had an off game", but they aren't. When the 90's Bills won a game this way, it was like that. When a team that hasn't been to the playoffs in a decade wins one like this, I think "that was a nice promising comeback, but what is going on?". One team has to lose.
bobobonators Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Day by day, I'm more convinced some people are more interested in being right than actual results. Sports, politics, you name it... I agree. I'm sure a lot of people also lose $$ betting spreads or get screwed in their pick 'em pools. There is absolutely no explanation for the level of anger some posters have after the team WINS and is currently at 4-3.

Listened to WGR postgame: not a single mention of Orton's (72% 283yds) or Watkins' (every catch a first down) performance. Instead, 2 hours of "what if we lost??"
