DirtDart Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) So you think you saw a terrible loss? Terrible clock management? Terrible quarterback play? Fine. Check out now. If you think the Bills are heading for 1-15 based on what you saw today, there are 31 other teams to choose from. Buh-bye. The last thing I want anyone to endure is watching inferior football for the next 15 weeks, so just give up now and learn to be a Pats or Packers fan. I saw a gutsy team come that close to winning a game they were dominated on offense. I saw a team keep MVP Cam Newton out of the endzone, twice from inside the 10. I'm going to stick around and see where this team can grow. The rest of you can just check out. Thank God, Hockey starts tonight.... The D did a real nice job. Cam Newton is coming off a freshly repaired rotator cuff. That is what kept the score somewhat respectable. He missed a few wide open shots in the end zone. Edited September 18, 2017 by DirtDart
billsfan60 Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) People have had enough of the moral victories. In the end, these moral victories haven't amounted to much. We just want to see the product on the field be better and all we can do is watch things play out for better or worse. The product on the field was better, just not good enough (and that will come). No reason to come unglued over what I consider to be a defensive gem yesterday hell I didn't even kick the cat after the last offensive screw up. Edited September 18, 2017 by billsfan60

Did I not predict this downgrading would happen last week?
May Day 10 Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 While the 'better fan than you' argument is the lowest form of social media... there are good points. People need to see the forest through the trees here. They are building a football program that most likely will not bear any fruit for a few seasons. How Tyrod Taylor looks has no consequence on the future of this team, nor does playing Peterman. At this point, it is about building culture, commitment, and work ethic... as well as gradually installing the correct athletes in place. The 6 picks in 3 rounds next draft should go a long way, and hopefully we will see a replacement QB for Taylor. We should also see some of Whaley/Overdork's cap space open up in the coming offseasons. It pains me to say it, and people do not want to accept it, but this season is basically a throw-away season. Bright spots should be focused on, and we need to have confidence that weaknesses can/will be filled. This defense played 2/3 of the game in what looked like some pretty intense heat.... and got stronger to the point of domination in the 2nd half. Some young guys looked good such as White and Lawson. Gaines was more than adequate. Gnashing teeth over things is a waste of time at this point.
PolishDave Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Strange how good the popcorn tastes in this thread.
4_kidd_4 Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 I've been just watching the defense and changing the channel when the offense takes the field. It's definitely the way to watch the Bills without checking out completely. Yeah, was watching on the back deck, and was mowing the lawn by halftime. Caught the last two drives of the game. Not wasting a gorgeous sunday on this boring brand of trashball. The box score is just as thrilling.
North Buffalo Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) Wont root against the Bills, but hockey season starts shortly and based on the talent improvements and new coaching style I think the Sabres will be much more entertaining to watch... Bills offense is gonna be tough to view other than to follow the scores. I'm rooting to see Peterman, win or lose... his development and style would be more watchable then TT. Not saying better, just more entertaining..,. Bills aren't going anywhere this season despite improved D. Edited September 18, 2017 by North Buffalo
row_33 Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Thank you, sir! welcome! best laugh of the weekend right there!
Thunderstealer Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Lost by 6 on the road with a chance to win at the end. Non conference/ non division no big deal. Other Bills teams get smoked in that heat on the road
GunnerBill Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 So because I think our Quarterback isn't very good I have to support someone else? That means there are definitely not 31 others to choose from.... I am a Bills fan through and through. I will be here all 17 weeks. When they are good I will credit them when they are bad I will criticise them. I have no agenda other than the team winning. I say what I see.
billz4life820 Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Sorry bud... I am just as much of a bills fan as you are and I will continue to call it like I see it.... so i hope that pisses you off this offense sucks and will continue until we have a real nfl qb that can pass
simool Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Classic Crusher. You are a disease lately. BBMB is gonna happen here I'm calling it now. That's kind of like calling the fat lady fat.
xsoldier54 Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) Sorry but nobody and i mean nobody has the right to call out the fans after what we have gone through. What we saw today was the same Bills game we have seen every season for 17 years and we are sick of it. We have every right to be pissed off when yet again we have a QB that can't win with 2 minutes and 2 timeouts down 6 points when we see virtually every other !@#$ing team do that. We aren't fair weather fans we are dedicated and we have more right than any fanbase in the NFL to criticise this franchise. I couldn't disagree more. Yesterday's game was ugly on offense for sure, but this was not the same Bills game we have been watching for years. There were no stupid penalties that I saw and if TT makes that throw at the end, despite how bad the O played, we walk away with a win. Tough game to watch for sure and frustrating, but I'll take this team over the ones from the last two years every single time. The O will make adjustments and we'll win our share of games. I fully expect that TT will not be QB1 by the end of the year. Coach McDermott will not accept this kind of QB fplay or an entire season. He either plays better or he will be on the bench by mid season. At least we have that to look forward to. Edited September 18, 2017 by xsoldier54

row_33 Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) A drubbing is coming from the Broncos and Falcons, fully expected, anything else will be most enjoyed. Edited September 18, 2017 by row_33
Gugny Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Do I have until midnight to check out, or does this offer run longer than just tonight? Has anyone seen this on Groupon, by chance?
