Overall they've been good, very good, really. But really inconsistent. That's what they've got to iron out. One bad game in the playoffs and the season's over.

The Todd Collins comeback game was one of my most memorable, in an otherwise forgettable year….

Fun stuff...let's go guys. Has it ever been a thing for a quarterback before either? Or is it just a current Bills fans thing? I don't remember anyone ever saying that Mike McCarthy and/or Matt LeFleur squandered Aaron Rodgers' career. I don't remember anyone saying that Sean Payton squandered Drew Brees' career. How about Shula squandering Marino's career? Dan Reeves squandering Elway's career, Reid squandering McNabb's career, etc. Nope, never heard it. So, when did it become a thing for NFL fans to say that about any coach, squandering a QB's career? I think you guys blow out of proportion how bad the blunder was in relation to other coaches playoff mistakes simply because it happened to our team. And there is still no guarantee that we win that game even if he did everything differently (how you think he should have done them). Plus, coaches learn and grow from their mistakes as well. I'm not going to do it right now, too much work, but I guarantee if you look back through the playoff losses of even HOF coaches, you will find plenty of games that the fans and/or media blamed them for something. Almost every playoff losing coach gets blamed for some reason that the team did not win. Almost every single one. First of all, you can criticize the team and the coaching without wanting to fire the coach and GM. You guys look at things so one-sidedly. And this trope of "just being happy to make the playoffs" is inaccurate and has been repeated so many times now, it's like you guys don't have a real argument. You just say 13 seconds and then mock us. And I absolutely guarantee that if that happened to the Bills in the exact same way (The Minneapolis Miracle), you would all still blame McDermott for it, whether it was player error or not. Honestly, if that is how we exited the playoffs this year, would you use it as an argument to fire McDermott? You know you would. And again, I think you guys are selective in your memory. One of these days, when I have time, I will look back through the playoff losses and point out some examples. So, 31 teams and coaches fail every year? And coaches who never won a Super Bowl are all failures? Let me ask this, are Brian Billick, Barry Switzer, George Seifert, Bruce Arians, Doug Peterson, Gary Kubiak, and Nick Sirianni all NFL success stories, while Don Shula, Marv Levy, Bud Grant, George Allen, Don Coryell, Chuck Knox, Dan Reeves, etc. are all failures? The HOF doesn't think so anyway. And I don't understand why the anti-McDermott guys can not understand that no one (McDermott supporters) are ok with not making or winning a Super Bowl, especially with Josh as our QB, we all want it as much as you guys do...and some of us probably for many more years than some of you. We just still believe that this regime can do it. Believe me, I fully understand that you guys do not believe that (and I know the reasons why you think that). And that's ok. From our perspective, wanting to keep McD is not a concession that we do not want or care about winning a Super Bowl, i.e., "we know McD can never do it and we are ok with that". That is not where we are. There are just a few, last of us holdouts that believe they can still do it. Plain and simple. And we have some perspective on why it hasn't happened yet. Agree to disagree, but stop putting words in our mouths. I may end up being wrong, but I'm not delusional. I mean what the hell does "cult of personality trial" mean in this sense anyway. Do you really think that McDermott supporters are just brainwashed by propaganda from the organization? That we put McDermott above the Buffalo Bills (who we have rooted for for decades before Sean's arrival)? And we would never criticize him or see his faults, or the teams' faults? That is not our reality, that is just what you guys are projecting on to us. First of all, Tannehill had 4,085 yards and 40 TDs and only 7 INTs on 66% completions that season. That is some pretty good QB play. And secondly, you say "with Tannehill" as if Derrick Henry wasn't also on the team with 2,141 yards and 17 TDs that year. I mean, that isn't just a career year, that is an "of all-time" type of year. And again, you guys just put words in our mouths and exaggerate everything. Honestly who thought Thad Lewis was the answer. Absolutely no one. Did people root for Tyrod when he played, yes, but who was saying he was the long-term answer? For two years I screamed at my TV, throw the damn ball Tyrod. I was excited for EJ when we drafted him, hoping and wishing he could be the guy. But I didn't hold on to him when it became obvious he wasn't the guy. Trent had a few good games, if anyone was on his train it was for like half a season. I don't know where you guys come up with this stuff. It's like you have to pretend that we are crazy in order to prove your point. All this was about, initially for me, was contradicting Dr.D's statement that Vrabel is obviously a better coach than McDermott. Who knows, in 10 or 15 years we may look back on things and say, yeah, Vrabel was better (if he wins a couple of rings and McD does not, or whatever). But, currently, there is absolutely no stat that points to Vrabel being a better coach at the moment other than the Pats looking better than the Bills currently, this year---but the end of this season has not even been written yet, and it's just one season, so maybe we should hold his gold jacket for now.

Only 3 more games left at the Ralph…

I’m holding out hope that you’re wrong and we have more than three games left at the Ralph. That said, favorite memory is probably the first game my Dad took me too. Eight years old and it was the Sunday night game hosting the Raiders in 1990. Amazing first game to attend, I remember seeing some drunk guy leave with his eyeglasses crushed 😂. -
Thanks for posting! Listening now

First time, with dad, 1982. Want to go tell him all about a SB win and leave a bunch of stuff at his gravestone. Like, so badly want to do that. -
Snow game vs Indy a few years ago. That game was unreal. Had 7 friends in town for it to "witness billsmafia" and only 1 made it until the OT winner. What an atmosphere. If anyone remembers, it was so snowy that they didnt even do security or check tickets at the entrance lol.

Put Tasker in the Hall of Fame! The dude changed the game and was seriously game-planned for

I disagree. This isnt a binary choice. It’s certainly possible, in fact likely, that Hegseth is both a liar AND incompetent. -
My first game was when my parents took me to a Monday Night Game, Bills vs Dolphins, in 1981. Fast forward 10 years later, I took my Dad to Bills vs Dolphins, 1991 AFC Divisional Round. The game where Tasker ran a muffed kick off some 70 yards to the Dolphins 5 yard line. One vivid memory of that game was Marino going up and down his offensive line sitting on the bench just going off on them. We all know the outcome of that game.

10. And it’s a special election on December 2nd in an off year. Not a presidential one. Every Democrat is going to show up or create votes no matter the election bc Trump bad. They are the high turnout party now because it’s the only way they feel they can “resist.” Unless they post on social media the cheering on of assassins that shoot conservatives. But other than that, they are voting to resist!! They should be favored to WIN every single special election bc low propensity voters are Republicans now - they’ll vote in mid terms and presidential elections. This used to be reversed. All part of realignment. -
My favorite moments where when the whole crowd used to ............... Oh wait, that was the Rock Pile. Get off my lawn you kids.

Raiders AFCCG, comeback, and NE playoff win. All amazing.

Many will probably say the comeback game. I wasn’t old enough to attend the comeback game, but I did experience a smaller version of it vs the Ravens this year. While watching it unfold, all I could think of were hundreds of scenarios where I saw the Bills losing. As the game progressed it seemed more and more like the bills were going to “find another way to lose.” I sat there and kept thinking about how much time and money I had wasted on front row seats. It was an embarrassment. It was a miraculous thing to witness. Just like the comeback game against Houston, I think what made it special was watching 1/4 of the people leave, and being rewarded with a crazy, improbable come from behind win. I have been to approximately 15 bills games. It wasn’t until that one that I experienced what “Fandemonium” felt like.

Every game my father brought me to when I was a child The entire obsession with the bills starts there... Good bad ugly.. playoff wins I don't take any game for granted! The Ralph has seen so many good memories from breaking the dolphin streak to Oakland in the AFC championship.. the perfect game versus the Patriots And all the friends we made along the way
-
I’ll be at all 3. What is your favorite moment at the stadium? Mine is the perfect game against NE in the playoffs.
-
You know he plays 16 minutes a game at Duke Went from the ACC steals leader to a jag on a team with a bunch of five-star recruits I really like Malik but he made his bed... He left to win a championship last year and it didn't happen and he's not getting it this year He would have been a much bigger piece for Syracuse so it is what it is.. I'll watch him in the Lithuanian b League next year

great win, but I had the same reaction to storming the court….
