We don’t need to pretend that it isn’t. I think what the poster is saying is that you TELL PEOPLE THEY SUCK by kicking their butt on the football field and leaving no doubt. Not talking personal smack about the individual players after the game is over and won. Being humble in victory is a sign of dominance and of true strength. It is not a sign of weakness as some other posters have suggested. Just like how the patriots are always praising their opponents both before and after the game. But our boys need to learn how to win, just like everything else. They are not used to it, there will be growing pains. I have no doubt if it gets out of hand McD will reign it in.

I didn’t like the comments about saying Dak shouldn’t get paid. We’ve accomplished nothing yet and are coming off 20 years where we were always on the other side of things. I understand celebrating and having fun, but you can do it without disrespecting the other team and their fans. I know we haven’t been here before, but act like it. None of the players or coaches, owner wasn’t around 20 years ago.. means nothing 1

We don’t need to pretend that it isn’t. You’re not getting it then. You want to make the the team feel bad, act like you can take them down anytime you want. That’s what we were taught back in the day. Again I understand things have changed to where it’s not making the other team feel bad but to draw attention to yourself by such actions. Don’t care who does it, Bills players or not. It doesn’t work for me. And for those saying accept it and enjoy the game? The game is called football, not acting.
Big Blitz Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) This is the same fan base that would have totally been good drafting the kid that grabbed his junk at the other team right? Edited November 30, 2019 by Big Blitz
Stallions Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 I never saw Kyle Williams do it! John Brown doesn't do it! The "it" is a scripted act of 'look at me" to show off as an individual. Silly!
BillsFan692 Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 I was not even 10 years old when the bills were going to the superbowl, but it's worth referencing one of the best coaches buffalo ever had, quoted by one of the best players we ever had when he was inducted into the Hall of Fame: "But for real, Marv, you are my inspiration. I wanted to play my best because I never wanted to disappoint you. You made me feel like every extra effort I made for the Bills was appreciated. Marv, I remember my first game against the Houston Oilers, against the Minnesota Vikings, I spiked the ball. When I came over to the sideline, you had this look in your eye like you were very upset at me. You grabbed me by my jersey and said, Why did you spike the ball? I said, Coach, every little kid that ever watches football at least wants to do that at least one time in his career. He said, Well, that's great, don't ever do it again. Act like you've been there before." I think Marv was being a little hard on the rook, spiking a ball I mean come on -- but the quote stuck with him and "it mattered". At least, to Thurman it did. And he never spiked the ball again. I have no doubt McD will get these boys reigned if it's necessary. McD is a lot sterner than Marv ever was.
jimmy10 Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Zeke looks like an idiot doing that stupid “eat em up” gesture after every first down he makes. It’s cringe-inducing. If he was on my team, I’d want him to stop. He deserves whatever mockery comes his way.

When Dak did his dance after the first drive DT you didn’t have a problem with that right ? or Zeke after his big run feed me ? But if Shaq does his dance after a sack that’s just silly ? Got it !!!
Doc Brown Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 I don't mind celebrations after a sack/touchdown as long as you're not down double digit points. Mocking the other players after a tough loss will just give them more motivation next time you play them. However, since we only play the Cowboys every four years I thought it was harmless. Classless but harmless. 1

A little bit OK but just gets carried away too much.
BigDingus Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 If they start getting drive-extending penalties, yes. I will be livid. Nothing, and I mean absolutely NOTHING pisses me off more than a great play ruined by some a**hat running his mouth & drawing a flag, giving the opponent another shot at life. As long as that's not happening, they can flap their jaws all they want.
Royale with Cheese Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) I loved it. I think some of you don’t understand Zeke’s “feed me” motion is basically saying “give me the ball because they won’t stop me” Seeing him doing it multiple times in the first quarter, you don’t think that irritates our players? It’s on our own sideline with our own team. Zeke is doing it right in front of the Bills players faces. He’s doing it on the field. It’s similar to Dikembe Mutombo blocking someone’s shot. What did Jordan do when he dunked on him? Edited November 30, 2019 by Royale with Cheese 1 1
GoBills808 Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 These are 20 something year old kids in the biggest game of their lives, under a ton of pressure on the biggest stage, having to hear how overrated the team was at 8-3...they're just blowing off some steam. Ridiculous to get upset about it imo
Ethan in Cleveland Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 No issue at all. Don't taunt and they can do what they want.

The ***** thing is comedy gold. I will carry that one to the grave with me. My very first game in Buffalo (not 1st Bill's game) was the ***** toss game

This is a generational thing. My generation was taught to ignore that stuff, and answer by beating the other guy. And acting like it was no big deal, that we knew we could beat them every time.
