Dan Darragh Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 When Davis nearly botched the onsides kick at the end of the game, my Bills-addled brain couldn't help but play out the nightmare scenario: Browns recover the kick and... do I need to spell it out? I'm wondering if this is a normal condition for long-time Bills fans. 2 12 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorin' Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I think it's always important to evoke the worst possible senario in any situation, or you wouldn't be doing your duty of creating a losing culture of fear, shame and regret. 3 1 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the name Derrick Anderson ring a bell (before he was a Bill and got HIS bell rung)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really important to never allow a glimmer of hope that our team can actually be winners. Because you know, with hope only comes disappoinment. And these brains of ours were wired to associate disappointment with death. Therefore hope equals death... 🤣 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a dumb player named Daryl Porter doing what dumb players do. That's why I am not a fan of Lil' Dummy McKenzie getting big snaps for this team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering if this is a normal condition for long-time Bills fans. This team simply has to figure out how to finish. Yes they were able to finally get the offense back on track in the 2nd half yesterday but it was against a 3 win team who has one of the worst defenses in the league that pretty much every team they've played has exploited. Meanwhile, Jacoby Brissett had one of his best days ever and first 300 yard game for the Browns this year against Frazier and McD's vaunted defense. You still get the sense that this team is going to struggle mightily down the stretch as we hit the meat of the remaining schedule and assuming White does come back and play I don't see that changing much in the near term. Like myself and other predicted, it was criminal act by Beane and this front office to not adequately address DB in the offseason and rely on the likes of Dane Jackson and rookies and once again his incompetence as a GM is being proved here. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s playing himself out of a 20M+ per year pay day, but if I’m the Bills, I offer him an extension after the season, lock it down at a reasonable number and then draft a WR early. His big play ability will always be a huge piece of this offense, but we’re seeing that he’s not WR1 potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benderbender Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) Nope. Every Edmunds supporter needs to treat Davis with the same set of kid gloves. Davis "only does what's asked of him" and his "few mistakes are magnified because of what the coaching staff expects of him" and so on. He too deserves the same max contract next year by transitive property. Edited November 21, 2022 by benderbender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
