They haven't played a down yet. Right now, they're sitting sort of where the Brownies were last year at this time: a team that made impressive moves the preceding season and followed it up with adding more talent for the coming season. It didn't work out for the Browns for a number of reasons in 2019, and the Bills could just as easily crap the bed in 2020 if something goes wrong -- like suffering a spate of serious injuries to key players. It is absolutely NOTHING like the Browns of last year. Making a statement like proves you simply have an agenda to "tamp down" any Bills enthusiasm. Get real.

He doesn't give the Bills or any other team a second thought. He beat us twice last year. What do you think he's afraid of? Fans letting things go to their heads as if we just won the Superbowl. Let's start by winning a single playoff game. Heck, let's start by beating the Patriots once. It would be awesome if he just appear on TV and they asked him why he was leaving the greatest dynasty in pro sports history. Brady says one word: Buffalo.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 How did I miss this? BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA i needed a good laugh 2
KD in CA Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 I'm sure he was quaking in his boots after going 173 - 2 against the Bills this century. 1

I know it's hard when a chick dumps you, but you really can find a way to love again. Haha, of course I’ll enjoy. I find love all the time. ? But you’re kidding yourself if beating the Pats with Stidham or Hoyer is the same as beating Brady. I know you every Bills win is a SB for you but some of us want to see our team beat the best and not guys who weren’t even that good in college. honestly, did that Brissett victory really feel the same as when Fitz beat the Pats? You’re a liar if you say yes. 1

The worst part is this is finally the year I actually believed we could beat him (I just pretty much assume 2 NE losses every year, makes it easier). 16 minutes ago, KD in CA said: I'm sure he was quaking in his boots after going 173 - 2 against the Bills this century. ? isn’t the stat he has more wins in Buffalo than any Bills qb since he started playing? 1
LABILLBACKER Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) Let's not overthink this. He went to a team with 2 top NFL targets. And I have no doubt he knew he could coax Gronk back. We still have to prove we can beat Beli..... Edited April 29, 2020 by LABILLBACKER
Orlando Buffalo Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 I have no distinct proof but it makes me even happier to think it is true- so yes
Straight Hucklebuck Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 A QB who has gone 32-3 against the Bills?
Nihilarian Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 Like what the Packers did in Green Bay to Rodgers... Ole Bill did the same to Brady by not bringing in enough weapons for the offense. Brady had enough of Bill thinking it was all him. The Bills getting Diggs had to have impact on Brady... The Patriots had the #1 defense last season and what did Belichick draft for #2 S, #2 LB, #3 LB, #3 TE, #3 TE, #5 K, #6, G #6 OT, #6 LB #7 C. First three picks were for the defense. So, we can expect the Patriots to be a run first team in 2020 while they break in Stidham. JMO
without a drought Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 I thought this was just his way of avoiding the hotels in Buffalo.
TheCockSportif Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) I think that Brady realized a few years ago that the avocado offerings at Wegman's weren't to his liking and he started thinking about moving on. Seriously, though. I had thought that he was going to call it a day there a couple of years ago. You should sense the dissonance even back then. Edited April 29, 2020 by Groin

dollars 2 donuts Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) I honestly believe Tom Brady spends more time worrying about whether Godzilla is real than he does about the Buffalo Bills being a concern to him. The only little thing I base that on is that in the entire 100 year history of the NFL no qb has defeated another team more than Brady has beaten the Bills. “No qb” in this instance means no human being now alive, or who has ever existed. ...Mothra would probably be ahead of us, too.

Saxum Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 I think he was getting away from Ryan Fitzpatrick as much as Bills. Patriots Dynasty Died at the Hands of Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Dolphins https://www.thebiglead.com/posts/patriots-dynasty-died-at-the-hands-of-ryan-fitzpatrick-and-the-dolphins-01dx9qmw0qad It did nothing. The Dolphins won in Foxborough behind another magical performance from Ryan Fitzpatrick, a stunning result that could reverberate throughout history as the day the Patriots dynasty died. 2

At this point of his career he’s not about to set significant records as it’s about preserving them. I haven’t ever remember seeing greatness without egos and I believe that Brady understandably is about putting himself in the best situation to succeed and prosper and staying in New England wasn’t affording him either of those aspects. Take case in point, I have always believed that Bill Parcels, as great of a coach as he was, cherry picked his way in establishing his record as a coach. He notoriously went after opportunities that were best served in his interest of succeeding beginning with the New England opportunity to the NY Jets to the Dallas Cowboys, he even advocated for the Tampa Bay opportunity in between the Jets and Cowboys tenure. He made a living out of exploiting dysfunctional organizations that had successful player personal pieces intact but were lacking directional and organizational direction. To me Brady knew it was time to jump ship, staying would provide nothing but failure and disappointment. New England is in the process of metamorphosing their roster well all the while struggling with their salary cap. Brady can thank Buffalo for a good portion of his success and lore. His timing in New England couldn’t have come at a better time. Under an aging Ralph Wilson’s watch we had the “privilege” of being led by a PR guy in Russ Brandon. This organization was so out of touch with the current state of the NFL at that time that it’s downright embarrassing. That can’t be claimed now, under Brandon Beane and Sean McDermott the Bills now enjoy competency at a very efficient rate and Brady realizes it. In the last 2 seasons in particular the Bills gave New England everything they could handle and then some. Make no mistake about it, nobody likes to go recede and Brady knows that the Bills are no longer a gimme opponent. It’s a new dawn in the AFC East Division and while nothing is ever promised the future for the Buffalo Bills does look promising while the sun goes down on Brady’s career. McD went 0-6 vs Brady. "metamorphosing their roster"! Tipster19 is the King of Threads
dogbyte Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) He went to a team willing to pay a 43 year old QB 30 million plus a year for the next 2 years. All of it guaranteed. Plus a team with more talent and an easy going coach. Edited April 29, 2020 by dogbyte
AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 Not at all. Hate Brady with every fiber of your being, but dude is ultra competitive and certainly isn’t afraid of the Bills at this point, considering we still couldn’t take them down last season 1

No. I doubt TB runs from any sort of challenge. Can we just stop with the bolded because it “feels right” The horse is dead, and died unjustly. Brady’s win % in the AFCE is no better than his win % in any other division. Brady’s win % against Peyton Manning is like 66%. Thats as good or better than Big Ben, Rivers, Rodgers, Brees, Watson...basically everybody else’s entire career. And most of those guys are headed to the HoF. And they play against much worse competition that a Peyton led Colts/Broncos team on a regular basis. 1
