Congrats to Dion. Spencer Brown won’t make the list but he is absolutely a Top 50 player. Probably one more elite season and Bills appearance in the Super Bowl to get him some notoriety away from being ranked in this area.

looks like he was lucky enough to just suffer a dislocation with no fracture

No they definitely did it last year too probably every year they spread it out for that fat ad revenue over the last of the no football month.

There hasn't been a real rivalry in the AFCE for 25+ years

So then it's like a history lesson like a bunch of other posters have said, as a Wyoming Bills fan that came when Allen got drafted don't really know any of that. Besides that it's like which of your children is the most annoying.....probably the dolphins they just don't shut up.

Of course! Which is to say 'none, 'cause,' I don't put any extra effort during the season. Usually at least. Because it is an evening game, I might buy a couple crab cakes for the Baltimore game.

We are the hated rival of the rest of the division right now, because none of them stack up to the Bills. The Bills are focused higher, so their rival is the Chiefs. It is much like the Pats who dominated the division while the rest of the division hated them, but the Pats cared less and viewed other AFC playoff contenders as their rivals.

Hadn't heard this in a while and it popped up in the truck yesterday and made me think of this thread. Great jam from the New Mastersounds.

Releasing this over months is dumb. This is the first year they do this no?

Yep. Ofer an entire decade against a team will do that to ya. I think a most hated rival depends a lot on our experiences as fans when we were kids. I suspect there is a generation of younger fans today who were scarred by the Belichick/Brady Patriots*** like we were by the Shula/Griese ‘Phins.

My bad, I forgot to add DIVISION rival. It is definitely the Chiefs for me by a long shot. Of course I forgot the most important word in my topic, ugh...

Yeah, the old saying goes "the hammer does not consider the nail a rival". The Pats rivals in the 00s were Colts and Ravens. Maybe even Miami since is seemed like the Dolphins could somehow manage some crazy win to split 1-1. BUt definitely not the Bills or Jets.

I know brother. I’ve known you long enough to know when you’re joking. It was pretty funny. As far as health, I still workout 5 days a week, and feel healthy doing it. I know I’m not 30 anymore, but that’s ok. I’d like to think I’m a little more wise now, than 27 years ago.

I’m pleasantly surprised that I am the first to mention the refs.

It was always the Dolphins. The problem is the Bills sucked for 17 years and the Dolphins have sucked for awhile now too. It ends up diminishing the rivalry when one team doesn't pose a legitimate threat to the other.

Yes, at this point (in this era), our biggest rival would have to be the Chiefs. During the Pats run, I would say it was the Pats...but I'm sure the Pats would never have classified the Bills as a rival during that era (because they mostly just kicked our butts). But believe me, the rivalry with the Dolphins in the '80s and '90s was very real and very heated (see Bryan Cox, for one). It was as good as any NFC North rivalry back in the day. Kelly vs. Marino; Shula vs. Marv; a warm, weather vacation city vs. a snowy rust belt city; 0-fer the 70s, etc. And from 1990-1998, the Dolphins and Bills met in the playoffs 4 times (on top of playing each other twice a year in the regular season).

I cherish every victory we have over Ravens. Worst fans. They think very, very highly of themselves.

Yeah. When the Pats were good I was bitter and hated them. Now that they stink, I'm happy and still hate them.

So basically what reasonable people have been saying in this thread for about two years?

Old an, thanks for setting this youngins straight. Maybe you’re not aware that the f#$&cking Fish beat us 20 straight times in the 70’s. When we beat them on September 17th 1980 in Rich Stadium, we tore the goal posts down in jubilation. F the fish. Your remarks indicate you’re young. My father still hates the Japanese for Pearl. He’s 95. I try and and have him talk down, but he can’t forget how he felt at 11 when those bastards invaded Pearl. It’s true, they were the greatest generation. Thank god my wife is Chinese as he loves her. It’s irrational, but my point was not xenophobia, just something like that scars you. I hate the Fish with every fiber of my being. The Cheats beat a mediocre, poorly managed Bills for 20 years. We had Saban for a short time in the 70’s, and it was Knox who led us to our first victory over those slimy bastages. I will never ever not hate the Fish. If you were in you’re 50’s or older, you’d never write these words.

Patriots are by far my least favorite team for the 17 years we never made the playoffs and they won the division seemingly every year. We didn't beat them for like nine years. Bills and Patriots have never really been good at the same time though, I'm surprised Patriots isn't more people's snap answer. Of course the whole AFC East are rivals but always Patriots most hated for me.

Yeah… I’m pretty shocked this wasn’t OP’s first thought. Can’t stand that team.

I always said Caleb Williams was Kyler Murray when everyone was comparing him to Mahomes. Still early yet for him and he has the right coach now so we shall see

That fanbase manages to make me dislike their QB more than he deserves.

If ray Davis and ty become a duo, cook will gulp hard
