And on a different level, cutting off only my ears still leaves all other senses intact to partake in the torture that is the Bills...

...and with that, any scrap of sympathy that I could have convinced myself that I had for you has turned to bile.

I lurked for a few years and joined in 2009. If management had listened to fans with the intention of making decisions regarding the team, they would have gone insane. Look across the spectrum of views on this message board and you'll be hard pressed to find common ground on whether or not people even like this team, let alone some magical consensus on how to run it. I think the fact that management in this drought hasn't shown to be smarter than the average fan is a big part of the problem. The thought of a single, lonely, little Christmas light makes me sad. Soldier on, solitary yule luminescence. In light of this annual Bills collapse, the only hope for our holiday cheer rests with you.

How’s that no-talent choirboy approach working out for you now, McFaithbased?

In an airport, so thankfully not able to see the game, but based on the box score it appears that at least Peterman throws a catchable ball...

This FO just dumped a bunch of young players who didn’t fit their process. Regardless of whether TT takes this team to the playoffs or not, if he’s not their guy then I don’t think they blink an eye when they cut him loose. I think they were unsure if he could be their guy until the Saints game, when Tyrod himself helped them slam that door closed with conviction. Vic’s delusional.

For the most part, I agree. However, if he comes in and looks completely overmatched like Cardale Jones at the end of the Jets game last year, and despite that the game is still within reach... In my opinion, as long as he’s not baited into a bunch of picks, it will be hard for him to look worse than what we’ve seen on offense the last 2 weeks, minus garbage time in the Jets game.

You’re assuming they’re waving a white flag, and ignoring the possibility that Peterman in this offense might be a better fit that keeps the defense off the field for more than 2 minutes or less. Besides, it’s not like they launched Tyrod into space. If Peterman stinks up the joint in the first half, I’m sure TT can come in and scramble or check down just as well as he did while getting first team practice reps. It’s not like it’s going to affect his chemistry with his receivers.

So, are you advocating going without a backup? It’s a bold strategy, Cotton. Let’s see if it pays off for em.

Did Nate send Micah a selfie of ‘lil Nate?

Maybe McDermott, as a former DC, looked at the last two defensive game plans against his QB and made the assessment that Peterman gives him a better chance of getting to 9-10 wins with the remaining schedule than TT does based on what he sees from them every day... Or maybe that’s just how I want to justify the change... Based on the last two games, without a dramatic change, I don’t see them winning more than 3 to finish up the season, though.

I think it’s more likely if things go poorly, they package picks to move up for a QB, and if things go well they only expend one pick on a QB.

Was going to say his conspicuous absence was because, after all this time, he’s just had a massive letdown because this could have been Mahomes.

Didn’t read 38 pages to see if this was questioned, but I wonder if facing Anthony Lynn, who should have the book on TT’s weaknesses more than anyone, had anything to do with the timing.

I have a love-hate relationship with the city. When I’m just having fun and enjoying the city it’s great. Love the people (literally and figuratively, apparently ?). The food is dangerous... I can’t stop eating like I’m on vacation, and my waistline is paying the price. When I actually want to get something accomplished it’s a little less accommodating. Nothing is straightforward, and there’s no sense of urgency. Having lived here previously, you can probably appreciate that, while everyone knows the city has this reputation, actually living this reality can be eye-opening. When I’m at the mercy of anything service related I just want to scream. Fat Harry’s on St Charles uptown is the current Bills Backers location. It’s a good place to watch a game. Good beer selection. Good bar food. They’ve imported Molson and Labbatt, and are making their wings with Frank’s and doing them extra crispy on request, and for non-WNY wings they’re actually pretty good. The kindred similarly afflicted Bills fans are obviously the best part.

Were your panties this wadded when McDermott did it repeatedly at the start of the season to get the offense to show their hand? Of all the things the Bills gave you to get bent out of shape about on Sunday, I’d have to say you chose poorly.

That’s right, I’m coming for your other achilles, Sherman!

So it’s just a coincidence that our undersized and/or under athletic LBs suddenly look like ass without someone to keep that extra man off them, and teams can run at will right up the gut of the defense, then. Sure am glad the Bills are eating 14M over 2 seasons to shore up the Jags run defense.

So let me get this straight, 28 years and NOBODY has ever picked on you for being Canadian? Are we talking about the same stadium? Middle of nowhere? Big blue buffalo with red racing stripes painted all over it? Miserable team on the field, 90s notwithstanding?

I spun 6 times and "God hates us" came up 3 of them... This is how you do me?

Bills would have a better shot at stopping the run that way...

That's all well and good, but if I'm not mistaken the Bills let the Saints' waterboy score on that last TD run...

I wish I could say something classy and inspirational, but that just wouldn't be our style. Pain heals, chicks dig scars, glory lasts forever.

I'm not sure I understand the perspective of the question. Is she asking in general, or is she asking what the Bills do, or is she asking what Belichick does? I'm not certain about the first two, but apparently Belichick promises to feed on the souls of players' innocent children if they don't cheat their way to a win.

My significant other is a Saints fan, too. She was born and raised in Metairie, LA. We've been living in NOLA for just over a year, now, and I've been debating whether or not to go to the local Bills Backers bar with her tomorrow. She sorta knows her football, but she's enough of an unabashed smack talker that she can even get on my nerves at times with it... While the Saints are certainly having a good season since those opening 2 losses, so the current optimism among their fans is warranted, anyone who thinks Bills fans are a bunch of non-objective, rose colored glasses wearing homers has never been to Who Dat Nation.
