Night and Next Day for a Bills game

[DeepPass]

How many nights to you go to bed knowing you'll wake up and be able to watch a monumental game in Bill's history. It's exciting especially, for long-time fans and Seniors.

 

The  Buffalo Bills have played for 64 seasons. That comes close to a total of 960 games in  their history.  Seven (7) times they played to go to the Super Bowl and their record in those games was 4-3.  But, no Super Bowl!

 

The odds of  Seeing a Bills game, which if they win they go to the Super Bowl,  is .007 %  OR  seven thousandths !

 

Let's bring the trophy home for all of us who may never see this type of game again.     GO BILLS!

So do I play the lottery or watch the game tomorrow?

It is 7 games out of approximately 1000 games, but that means 0.7%, not 0.007%. But, is that really the way to look at it? Although accurate that knowing you're watching a Bills game there's only a 7/960 (I assumed your game count is close enough) chance of it being a SB appearance clinching game, the other games during the pre-season, post-season, and regular season would never have an opportunity to be a game to go to the SB. Best case is there's one chance per year to be in that game. So, the way I'd look at is 7 years out of 64 or a 10.9% chance that this is a year we're in the conference finals.

 

Regardless, just win this game and let's be in the Super Bowl!

 

Go Bills!

What's stopping you from doing both?

[DeepPass]

Thank you for responding.  The most important thing is that we WIN the dam game.

 

PS:  I think 7 out of 100 would be 7.0 %.

[Bad Things]

Fun Fact:  The last time I saw a live Bills game in Buffalo was the 1991 AFC Championship game.

 

I knew how lucky I was to be there.

 

Tomorrow is going to be awesome!

FOUR out of eight of these games are against the Kansas City Chiefs.  We have won one, they have won two. 

 

FUN FACT: No other teams in the Super Bowl era have met more in the AFL/AFC Championship Game than the Bills and Chiefs, which I thought was cool!

 

I have only missed 9 1/2 out of the 40 playoff games the Bills have played, 4 of which were played before I was born. That is 30.5/36 possible Bills playoff games in my lifetime that I have seen. I was on my way up to college with my Dad and missed the first half of the epic Oilers/Bills Comeback Game, and it wasn't on the damn radio.

 

RIP Township Grille, Matthews, NC, the best damn Bills Backers bar there ever was in the 90s

that IS pretty cool.  I would’ve guessed Steelers/Raiders or something.

the last sentence I bolded to red applies to every person reading this thread.

 

I take nothing for granted.

 

I also concede absolutely NOTHING to the Chiefs

 

They will try to attack our weaknesses as we do theirs. It's a huge battle and will be fierce.

 

There will be a few times when we will need to keep the faith and buckle up.

 

I don't want to hear any of our fans fold like a cheap suit due to a bit of adversity either.

 

Just some preemptive thoughts. My stomach is nervous. It's a Huge step on the way to the Lombardi

 

Hope springs ETERNAL

 

GO BILLS 💙💙💙

Sounds like that stat might rely on AFL matchups? Steelers and Raiders were NFL before AFC right? 

 

Edit: Raiders AFL

Raiders were AFL pre-merger, but Steelers were NFL.  After the merger both were AFC through to this very day.

 

Still, those two teams were powerhouses in the 70’s and I believe at least the early 80s too weren’t they?

Steelers NFL.  Raiders AFL... But Steelers & Colts crossed into AFC @ merger with the Browns...  NFC stayed old NFL teams.

One thing is certain. Tomorrow we get to see Josh Allen do Josh Allen things on a football field. As a matter of fact, with these stakes I think we see a new Josh Allen. An "Ultra Allen". One that will leave us all in awe.

another slight oddity building upon what @EasternOHBillsFan posted upthread — 

 

Last three AFC Championship games that the Bills have been in:

My next day started with the NY Times shading the Bills and Josh through one of their daily puzzles.

There are a couple with 3, but none with 4, until today! Steelers/Raiders, Cheatriots/Colts and Broncos/Browns are all tied at 3 for now second place.
