Chandler#81 Posted January 19 Posted January 19 (edited) You wanted it. You got it! While the MVP Award is purportedly already decided, Lamar & Josh going head to head in a ‘winner takes all’ Division Round playoff game has more meat on the bone than a brontosaurus burger!🍔 We’re slotted in the best time frame for a massive global audience (Again!) with the CBS top crew of Nance, Romo & Tracy Wolfson doing the broadcast. Thanks mostly to Josh Allen, we have become the most watched team in sports! Consequently, we MUST get him a Super Bowl championship and this season has proven to date this can happen now! Only 3 obstacles stand in our way and the Ravens are one of them. The other two are our regular season beotch -the Chiefs and the survivor in the NFC. WE’RE SO DAMN CLOSE!!🤏 This ‘24 season has been a national narrative of “Its all over for Buffalo, their window is closed and drywalled over!” But we have 1 thing no other team has! Josh Allen. All season long, from the Opening weekend through last Sunday, we watched the Bills, biting fingernails and fearing an inevitable doom. 3rd place in our Division seemed all we could hope for. Yet, mostly because of #17, we smashed the AFCE in record time before the early holiday decorators among us put up our Christmas 🎄! THEN, we defeated the Top teams in both Conferences before Allen came onto the field for just one play as we cemented the #2 seed in the AFC! To quote Jim Nance, “THIS IS STORYBOOK!” The scene now shifts back to Orchard Park where we haven’t lost all season. The mighty Ravens travel here intent on ending our dream while enhancing theirs. The Chiefs await the winner for the Conference Championship. Both these Offenses are prolific. The Ravens simply bash you in the teeth with seven 300pounders & three 250pounders. Bills are so diverse that you can’t anticipate anything with 13 different players catching TDs. We also average 4.5yrds per carry and scored 30 rushing TDs and added 32 passing TDs. But here’s what grinds me. We’re underdogs at Home. US! The team who hasn’t lost at home since KC in the Division Round LAST YEAR! 7 of our Home games this season were Blowout wins! Nevermind the MVP battle. Forget that we beat the top teams in each Conference. So what? -that the Ravens have 1 more loss. WTF?! Now I hope we embarrass them!🤬🔥 I get it. As dyed in the wool fans of the Buffalo Bills, inevitable heartbreak 💔 is our albatross. We’ve even given names to our season ending collapses. Ron Smith to the post, Fantom face mask in Cinci, Harmon drop, Wide Right, Thurman’s helmet, 13 seconds and most recently, Bass Miss. The list is long and the opportunities rare. So we’re prepared and conditioned for doom, but we remain ever hopeful of a better tomorrow. Everyone here has lost a loved one or 2 in our shared quest to raise the Lombardi trophy in Niagara Square. We carry their treasured memories in our own quest, looking forward to visiting their resting spot to share the news! So, we bundle up again or prep our easy chair today to witness the next great chance, ever hopeful! In the immortal words of Buffalo legend Tim Russert: We GOT This! GO BILLS!

Neo Posted January 19 Posted January 19 I grew up wanting a wins and Super Bowl Championship. Life happened, and I wanted wins and a Super Bowl Championship for my kids. Today, here and now, I want wins and a Super Bowl Championship for Josh Allen and my kids. Life’s a journey. Wanting for others is more powerful than wanting for oneself. 7 3 2 Quote
YoloinOhio Posted January 19 Posted January 19 (edited) A quick peek at the ravens forum has me convinced none of them are over the age of about 15. Edited January 19 by YoloinOhio 1 15 Quote

Wanting for others is more powerful than wanting for oneself. For me I include my 90 yr old Dad - an original Bills fan. One moment that has always been seared into my brain was a number of years ago we were at a game and my nephew who was just a kid at the time said "I just want Grandpa to see the Bills win a Super Bowl before he dies" 10 3 Quote
