Worst franchise in the NFL. Couldn't have said it any better...LOSERS!

again, why do you participate then.

 

My two year old grandson rec'd a Bills Sweatsuit and shirt. We all had a chuckle. But we don't dislike the team or the Fans.

When the D went to crap we lost our identity

and possibly are gaining a new one as one of the best running teams?

I think punting on 4th and 3 from where they were was the right play. They had the Dolphins pinned pretty deep in their territory after the punt. It was the putrid defense that gave up a 55 yard run on the first play from scrimmage that killed their chances.

 

With a decent defense, the Bills get the ball back around their 40 with 2:00 left to move into ft position.

There are a few things wrong with this argument. First and foremost, the Bills needed a win (not a loss or tie) to keep their playoff hopes alive. You don't give the ball to the opposing team with four minutes left in a sudden death game when winning is your only option.

 

Second, the latter paragraph assumes a lot of best-case-scenarios. Getting the ball back at the 40 with two minutes left would only happen if the Dolphins went three and out AND we got a sack. And that all hinges on the Bills having a "decent defense," which is laughable.

 

So no, that was absolutely not the right play.

Serious question, Georgre Edwards defense or Rex Ryan's?

Here is a question I never anticipated having to ponder, but it is a perfectly reasonable question.
