I remember when....

[Stads]

[Albany,n.y.]

I remember being the only team in NFL history to lose the #1 overall pick in the NFL draft to the CFL.  

I remember being the team that lost the highest drafted player to the USFL after that league started in 1983.  

I remember being the league's laughingstock at some point in every decade except the 1990s and 2020s. 

I remember coaches quitting without other jobs lined up rather than continue coaching the Bills. 

I remember a coach quitting in preseason. 

I remember Harvey Johnson being forced to coach the Bills against his will. 

I remember a player retiring at halftime. 

I remember 60,000 empty seats at Bills home games.

I remember 4/26/2018 when the Bills drafted the player who would turn the team into a contender and half this board losing their minds because we didn't draft Josh Rosen, all because of the cumulative effect of so many other bad choices.  

 

 

[Ray Finkel]

I remember when a coach said it was Fred’s turn.

[BuffaloBills1998]

I remember thinking Drew Bledsoe was gonna take to the promised land. Boy was I ***** wrong on that one😂🤣

[Success]

I mean, we had a spirited debate for over a year about whether JP Losman or Trent Edwards should start.  We were stoked when we signed Kyle Orton.  

 

All good remembrances, OP.  We paid our dues.

 

[Rocky Landing]

I remember when we had discussions that sounded very similar to the discussions currently taking place on the Patriots* forums regarding Bailey Zappe vs. Mac & Cheese.

[Rigotz]

[ColoradoBills]

All those are fun, but let's do some remembering from last Saturday back a couple of months.

I'll start.

 

Remember when the rookie Steeler's QB was going to "Jacksonville" the Bills?

Remember when the Bills 1st round CB was a bust?

I remember Kyle Orton retiring after the season ended & Doug Marrone looking at his QB depth chart without Orton & saying sayonara.

[Rico]

I remember when Ralph was the owner.

The Pittsburgh game was what inspired these thoughts for me.  Those deep throws were amazing. 
 

Also, while not a bust, he got smoked a lot in that game 

[scuba guy]

I remember when our qb tripped on a carpet at training camp and got hurt.

 

I remember when at training camp a qb throwing the ball and it hit the coutesy tent above my head.  And the gentleman standing next to me said well he is getting close to hitting those out routes. We all ahd a laugh.

 

I remember when your stud rookie lb blows out his knee at training camp.

 

I remember when fregee through an int in the playoffs against Cincinnati. 

 

I remember when oj gloves did not fit

Well ok I forgot.

 

Well the good old days how could we ever forget.

Our quarterbacks during the drought. Rob Johnson, Drew Bledsoe, Kelly Holcomb, JP losman, Alex van pelt, Jeff tuel, Matt cassell,, Thad Lewis. Trent Edwards, EJ Manuel, Kyle Orton and I didn’t mention Ryan F because he was the fan favorite.

[Rubes]

I remember when a Bills QB throwing for 300 yards in a game was just a fantasy.

When I started a thread with this same title/premise 5 weeks ago.

I don’t remember it

[WhoTom]

I remember when we apparently picked the wrong Josh. Who knew that it would soon lead to better memories?

 

(I don't follow college football, so I had no opinion on the draft.)
