RyanC883 Posted December 22, 2020 Posted December 22, 2020 (edited) the billboard for the winning fan base would be placed in the city of another team in its division. We could have done Miami (but why), the Jets (now, that seems kind of mean to kick someone when they are down), or in Boston, (punch the bully in the face). We clearly made the correct decision.

I’ve been here for 18 years and these fans are by far the biggest front running, bandwagon fans on the planet. This year the Pats talk has been SILENT. I’m talking almost ZERO discussion at work, in the community, on the news. It’s unbelievable you wouldn’t even know that team exists. They will be the Hartford Patriots again in 5 years. As for Bills fans, there are many of us who need to follow the team mantra of humble and hungry. It’s clear we’ve been starving for a winner for a long time but we are on the edge of being seen as insufferable instead of the die-hards we are. The billboard is kind of pathetic. The Pats owned us for 2 decades and the one year they are bad we are putting up a billboard in their backyard talking about how great we are. Bush league I am never hungry after my pre game meal 1
TroutDog Posted December 22, 2020 Posted December 22, 2020 So I checked on their fan site and it runs the gamut, some trashing us, the team, etc. Others are more pragmatic and say we’re a great fan base. I doubt it matters for the Pats*** themselves...the Buffalo Bills didn’t do it.

I’m betting Bellichick put that Tweet on his bulletin board and that happy little family will be targeted for dancing on enemy soil. Bad move. No chance you believe any of this.

teef Posted December 22, 2020 Posted December 22, 2020 (edited) I’m going to one up this. I’m going to that same location, finding a bunch of large rocks, and will paint the bills logo/colors all over them. Then, I’ll throw those rocks off of an overpass into oncoming traffic. Best...fans...ever. Edited December 22, 2020 by teef 1

Please. Whatever you do, just don't step on the crack, you'll break ya momma's back.

Can’t see this getting them upset. I can see it getting their fans upset but not the players. Not even going get most fans upset. Most have checked out on the Pats. Their haven’t been many bright spots but I’ll point them out: Meyers — started coming in in the last Bills game has kept it up since. Just had 100+ yard game last week and would have gotten a TD of Newton had been able hit him when he was open by three steps. JC Jackson — amazing year ,, was an UDFA HAS 8 INT and IMO played better than Gilmore and more deserving of the Pro Bowl. Pats D — while awful against the run is elite still against the pass and top 5 in points allowed. outside of those 3 things a train wreck of a season starting with QB play.
Beast Posted December 22, 2020 Posted December 22, 2020 Oh no! The Patriots are going to play extra hard now! 1
Jpsredemption Posted December 22, 2020 Posted December 22, 2020 I don’t think it affects the game but it’s just stupid.

They don’t really follow football, they follow the Pats*. They don’t care about being called the best fans. Any discussion with them on football quickly gets to these three things: 6 rings, Brady Goat, Bellicheck Goat. That’s what they know and care about. They don’t know other teams very well and they respect very little about them. The sign will fire up the Pats* team more than the arrogant fans. Not that the Pats* need anything outside to fire them up. I’m sure they are all pretty passed right now about this season. You seems to talk to a small group of patriots fan..because this is not true. Pats fans act no different than any other fan. 1

I mean anyone under 30 will not remember even the Bledsoe years which wasn’t that bad never mind the 1–15 year we had to draft Bledsoe. 1

Of course but that is a small portion because I know quite a bit that are the total opp. And overall it's funny. Other fan base have a problem how you(the opposing teams fans) act. But rarely ever realized they are the exact same way. Like cool..bills fans being bills fans..imagine if NE fans did this in Buffalo?

IgotBILLStopay Posted December 22, 2020 Posted December 22, 2020 https://www.boston.com/sports/new-england-patriots/2020/12/22/bills-fan-billboard-foxborough-gillette-stadium Quote The newest addition to local billboards: The Buffalo Bills won a league-wide competition at the start of the 2020 season (determined by voting) to be named the team with the best fans in the NFL. As a reward, FOX (which hosted the competition) allowed the Bills to place a billboard at a place of the team’s choosing. Buffalo, which recently clinched its first AFC East title since 1995, unsurprisingly targeted the most conspicuous obstacle in its decades-long pursuit of the division crown: The Patriots. Bills fans voted overwhelmingly (71.9 percent) to place the billboard in Foxborough. Guess it is one way to get closure after two decades of futility. Do it once - then move on and dont give the Pats another thought. 1
