[BearNorth]

Dawkins better remember which Josh Allen he is supposed to block, he blocked the wrong Josh against the Titans.

I think it is a curse

 

I want to see Trubinski at the start of the 2nd half.  It will save an accident against our starting QB,,,, give FA more reason to come here,,,,, and maybe give us a  better FA comp pick.

I want nothing more today than there to be a row of people wearing pink OSU pullovers with giant wichita state shocker foam fingers directly behind the jags bench. No reason behind this, I just think it would look aesthetically pleasing.

I detect the same level of disrespect from some as I saw last week for Miami. You’d think the lesson would take hold. I don’t care what an opponents record is because every team is capable on any given Sunday. Nobody has the luxury of taking any team lightly. Players and coaches have always understood this. All of us fans should try to as well.

My God could you imagine what Marino would do in this era????

The same as Pat Mahomes....

 

It's not a linear increase from one era to the next.

The bills won by 15 and never trailed in the game...

Yeah I'll leave that to the players and the Coaches, is it possible sure, but what should happen is we beat this much worse team and it's not even close.

Well then by all means, we should totally take the Jags lightly.

No one ever said to take the Jags likely.

 

Point is, the Bills are light years better than Jacksonville and shouldn’t struggle with them.

Eric Wood said on WGR that the Spencer brown injury was a weightlifting injury. I dont think I saw that previously

I heard it somewhere last week that it was a work out injury, so that tracks.

The players and coaches won't but who cares if the fans do. We aren't playing so it doesn't matter if we take the game lightly or not. I think the Bills will win big this week. In my meaningless opinion I think the score will be close to the Texans game or 1st Dolphins game. I won't call a shutout but I could see a 30 point win or maybe more.

It comes down to interpretation though, right? Did the Bills struggle this past weekend?

Feliciano was supposed to spot him but was too effing weak to hold the weight.

OK, I'll play along.  What lesson should have been learned from the fans taking the Dolphins lightly?  Did the attitude on a fan forum somehow dictate how the players prepared for the game?  Will it come back to bite the Bills in the ass if I don't show proper respect to the worst team in the NFL?

Point is, there’s a bigger point to consider.

I bet you wouldn't say that to his face.

Who cares indeed. That’s a luxury of being a fan I guess. Fans are entitled to have whatever feelings we want. It’s all good. 
I just happen to be one who thinks every opponent is worthy of respect. That’s all. 
 

But somehow, I suspect that if we should lose in an upset, some of the fans who care the least will be the first in line to accuse the coaches and players of taking the Jags lightly.

I think the main take away should be that, regardless of W-L record, there are world class athletes on every team and each opponent is worthy of respect, because on any given Sunday and all that. That’s all.
 

Feel free to feel however you want. No worries.
