gobills404 Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 I remember during the 2018 season all the debbie downer posters were saying "I don't care about silver linings and moral victories, I just wanna win games". Now we're winning games and those same people are crying about the wins not being good or convincing enough. 5 1 1
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 This game against the Pats is as big as any (non playoff game) over the past 20 years.
billsherd Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 We will beat the Cards, lose against Hawks. NE game can go either way.
Logic Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Most replies and the whining in this thread and others are pathetic. The Bills are 5-2 and leading the division and people are crying because the win didn’t include enough style points. Toughen up. Quit being such fairweather negative Nancies. Root for your team and accept that they lead the AFC East and be happy. “But they didn’t beat the Jets by ENOUGH points!”. Wahhhhhhh. Bunch of garbage and misery and pessimism. Shameful. 3 2 1

Logic Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Most of the replies in this thread are reminding me why I don’t come to the forums as much during the season as during the offseason. The negativity, even after wins, is just over the top and a total buzzkill. 4

Bills could have a 2 1/2 game lead over the Pats going into Pats week. I will take it. Is there a single Bills fan that wouldn't have taken 5-2 at this point? Patriots, Seahawks, at Cardinals in the next 3. I will take 6-4 at the bye as long as the win is over the Pats. 7-3 is ideal. Don't overlook the Dolphins. I agree with a lot of what you're saying tho. That NE vs. SF game is a sad QB seen. 1 hour ago, Gene1973 said: It's that simple huh?

Nitro Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 NE is losing big and showing weakness to the run. 1

People need to turn off whatever sports media source that they view and do something else with their time. The happiest moment NFL-wise for me in the last 5 years is when I said "good bye" to ESPN.

I'll take AFC East Champs this season. If things remain as they are this season I don't see a SB but I'm fine with that as long as I see progress.
Kenosha2Buffalo Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Have we ever been in a position recently where even if we lose to the pats we are still in first ? I know it's early but even early idk if that's happened recently 🤣 Happy to be 5-2

Today's win was great. It's not about style points. Even good teams sometimes struggle against bad team - but still win. It's the "W" that matters. But today I was wearing a sweatshirt that reads, "Just One Before I Die." Few people here in Western Washington knows what it means. But every Bills fan does. I've been a Bills fan for 50 years. Now I have some health problems stemming from my military/combat service. You can call me a "Negative Nancy" or "pathetic" or whatever derogatory you want but I love this team. And with all my heart I want to see them win a Super Bowl before I die. Today I yelled and cheered and laughed with gusto as the Bills staged their comeback and sealed the game with a pick. My grin when time ran out was as big as anyone's. But these last few games have pretty much convinced me it's highly unlikely that this is the year the Bills lift the Lombardi Trophy. Why is it "shameful" to enjoy the win and still harbor doubt about the future? Maybe it's more shameful to cast ad hominem attacks at fellow Bills fans - I don't know, you decide. But, yeah, today we're 5-2 and I as I write this, the Pats are getting trounced by the 9ers. For Bills fans like us, today is a wonderful day. Edited October 25, 2020 by hondo in seattle
wvbillsfan Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Not that I’m trying to lose the game next week. I’d rather beat the pats than anyone in the league. But we can drop the game next week and still be first in the afc East good times.

Lurker Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Beat the Pats this week, probably win the division. Still, getting more than 10 wins will be tough...
