Most BILLSY thing we are about to do to end the season

The Bills will win out. Make the play offs. Get through the Wildcard. Shock someone in the Divisional. Pick up a surprise victory in the Championship. Go into the Super Bowl as surprise favourites. And then have a final play which will go down in the annals alongside 13 seconds, 12 players, Wide Right, Music City Miracle etc.

I mean that'd suck and really hurt, but if they pulled all that off after all this ***** that still would have overall saved this crappy ass season.

It wouldn't be the most Billsy, but the "best guess" within-game Billsy thing would be to seemingly kick the Chiefs @ss most of the game and then give it away late in Q4 or OT.  Let's just hope the Philly OT loss has the same effect as the Tampa (OT?) loss!

 

I don't think it will because of 2 factors (maybe just 1). The Bills were down big against TB and came back. That momentum continued. The Bills were up by 10 against Philly and let them back in.  They've been known to bounce back after bad losses, this team doesn't have the vibe to sustain it.

Was this thread inspired by our favorite Nick Wright by any chance?

 

he specifically stated on Monday that even though he gives the bills 0% chance to make the playoffs, “the most billsy thing would be if they beat the chiefs and cowboys, then lose to chargers”.

Chiefs fans actually like that guy.  If the Bills had a "national" guy who talked like he does, I'd just be embarrassed.

It's very possible to win out and miss the playoffs. That’s probably what will happen

 

I'll take it up a notch.  Number 12.  

 

Three or More Clubs

(Note: If two clubs remain tied after one-or-more clubs are eliminated during any step, tiebreaker restarts at

 

1. Step 1 of two-club format. If three clubs remain tied after a fourth club is eliminated during any step, tiebreaker restarts at Step 2 of three-club format.)

Apply division tiebreaker to eliminate all but the highest ranked club in each division prior to proceeding to step 2. The original seeding within a division upon application of the division tiebreaker remains the same for all subsequent applications of the procedure that are necessary to identify the two Wild-Card participants.

2. Head-to-head sweep. (Applicable only if one club has defeated each of the others or if one club has lost to each of the others.)

3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.

4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games, minimum of four.

5. Strength of victory in all games.

6. Strength of schedule in all games.

7. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed in all games.

8. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed in all games.

9. Best net points in conference games.

10. Best net points in all games.

11. Best net touchdowns in all games.

12. Coin toss

Steelers vs Bills...

Tommy Maddox and Willie Parker

 

That was so embarrassing. Drew was so bad in that game.

It wouldn't even come down to a coin toss. Have you played around with the ESPN Playoff Machine? It's harder to find scenarios where they make it based on upcoming matchups. I know anything can happen, but we are going to need some help, we won't get or deserve.

I’m done with whole “Billsy” stuff.  Such a cringe term

 

 

It's not a cringe term.........it's just being used incorrectly.

 

"Billsy" arose from the drought and is about organizational disfunction.......their almost uniquely bad ownership and the decisions and subsequent results of those actions or inaction.........things far more damning than being a pretty good team and losing some important games in painful ways.   

 

By the definition that some fans are trying to mold it to the Andy Reid Chiefs astonishingly blowing a 28 point lead in the playoffs to Indy in 2014 or a 21-3 halftime lead in the AFCCG to Cinci a couple years ago was "Billsy".    I mean, they didn't reach a SB for almost 50 years.    They blew home field advantage in the playoffs many times.    That's just football and that aspect can change with the players/coaches on the field changing.    See the Boston Red Sox and Chicago Cubs as examples.

 

The Bills haven't been "Billsy" in quite some time.

 

Same thing happened with the term "Battered Bills Fan Syndrome(BBFS)"...........I also concocted that for our resident idiots who made illogical excuses for the Billsy behavior of the Bills organization..........like a battered spouse so often does for the spouse that beats them.   But instead they turned it around to justify their own sad-sack ways "I'm a battered Bills fan,  I have BBFS 😭".

 

I get that once something is said and repeated it gradually becomes whatever the masses want it to be but the re-interpretations of those terms really don't make sense to me and frankly they are just a bunch of people using them as a way to wallow in self-pity.

How long have you been a Bills fan?

Why not just enjoy the next game. Let’s beat KC.

I guess it’s just time to have fun with this crap

 

id say something like this

 

beat KC and/or dallas

(GREAT WE NEEDED THAT!!!  Here we come !!!!

 

then drop a stupid one to Pats at home or Chargers

 

 

another would be to lose two heart breakers a in a row - well would be three

 

to KC and then to Dallas losing all three games by final drives down the field (seems to be the 2023 theme)

Most Billsy is losing to the Dolphins in a win-and-in game.

 

Probably losing in a dumb way too.

[Buffalo03]

Beat the Chiefs, Cowboys and Dolphins. Lose to the Chargers and Patriots again

[frostbitmic]

Get swept by McCorkle Jones

[BullBuchanan]

Lose to Miami backups with the 7th seed on the line would be a wonderful throwback to the Willie Parker party.

I think the 4D chess Billsy move is to win that one in overtime, and then fall apart int he wild card, just to secure another year of McDermott and another wasted season.

Most Billsy thing?

 

Easy.

 

Sneak into the playoffs and be up 24-0 in the wild card game late in the third to lose 27-24 in OT.

 

McClap returns another year.

McClappy kneels the ball with 20 seconds left in the Super Bowl instead of kicking the game winning 21 yard FG and we lose 64-63 after being up 63-0 in the 4th quarter.

The Bills are always the losing team in the greatest games, so this would fit.
