quinnearlysghost88 Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 I had sort of forgotten our most recent MNF games, so I thought it would be a good refresh to go read the recaps. The recurring theme from these games was our inability to close, usually caused by pivotal late mistakes. Three of the games were decided by a combined FOUR TOTAL POINTS. You should go read the recaps, even if you think you remember them. They're full of anomalies and blown calls and inexplicable stats (Romo throwing 5 INTs and winning; Lindell missing a FG wide right in the final seconds; the inadvertent whistle last year; Leodis fumbling away two games). Oct. 8, 2007: Cowboys 25 at Bills 24 (L) Nov. 17, 2008: Browns 29 at Bills 27 (L) Sep. 14, 2009: Bills 24 at Patriots 25 (L) Nov. 23, 2015: Bills 13 at Patriots 20 (L) I think we're going to see another close game in Seattle tonight, and we're going to have to learn to put a game away late for once. Judging by our recent history, something bizarre is bound to happen.
YoloinOhio Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) We did win big on Monday night 2 years ago. 35-3. Snow game vs Jets that got moved to Detroit. But not officially MNF and it was vs Rexy soooo They didn't even practice remember? Just used the iPad to practice virtually. Craziest week. Edited November 7, 2016 by YoloinOhio

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 Sal just mentioned the bills historical record on MNF is 17-24
quinnearlysghost88 Posted November 7, 2016 Author Posted November 7, 2016 I'm actually more excited for the game than i thought i would be. i think we can win.
dayman Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 I'm actually more excited for the game than i thought i would be. i think we can win. I would go as far as to say it's likely we win. Dareus out is the one thing holding us back b/c if they run on us we will lose. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk
NoSaint Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) that dallas game... every time i see it mentioned.... i remember watching with a dallas fan that thought it was over. "how could they mess this up???" he wondered aloud about the bills. "just wait" i told him. tonights a tough team in a tough stadium, with a tough trip across the country..... we are long shots, but not impossible. if Seattle shows up and we manage to still win, id be impressed.

Same thing for me with the Pats game. Was watching with friends that weren't fans of either team and they were all saying "relax they're gonna win it". I knew better.
bobobonators Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 Wasn't that 2009 game vs the Pats the one where McKelvin had a critical fumble?

Talley56 Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 The two Pats losses and the Cowboys loss were all heartbreaking. But the loss to the Browns, while it sucked, wasn't so much heartbreaking to me as it was disappointing. We gave up 29 points to a team led by Brady Quinn. We didn't deserve to win that one.
boyst Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 I am so tired of that Seattle bandwagon fan base. They're soooo amazing that they had to pay A&M for trademark 12th man nonsense. They're ridiculous, stupid and probably don't even remember Ricky waters or Steve largent
LeGOATski Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 Those Jauron teams really knew how to play an exciting game...
r00tabaga Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 The Cowboys game is still one of my favorite games of all time. And as a season tic holder I've been to 90-100 games. They lost of course but man was that day fun.

quinnearlysghost88 Posted November 7, 2016 Author Posted November 7, 2016 yuuuup he fumbled in both games.
