I’m not a trash talker or gloater by nature. A quiet smile is the most someone would get from me on last night’s game. 😄 It’s good for my health in these parts. There are a lot of enthusiastic Bills fans in the Boston area.

NFL Network is replaying last night’s game today at 4 pm, eastern time. Not gonna lie, I am pouring a glass of bourbon and preparing to relive my bliss.

When Mofo posted this, way back when, I thought it to be an insightful caution light. As Bills fans, we know our history too well and carry the scar tissue to prove it. I still think this is a great post and want to resurrect it in celebration. Our beloved Bills have not just succeeded in the bright NFL prime time spotlight, we have dominated in a most entertaining way. Remember the anxiety. Remember the fears of failure. Today is a great day for Buffalo and all Bills fans. The painful memories only make today's excitement all the more fun. I have been a fan since 1970. I remember it all and truly believe we are Super Bowl Caliber. Go Bills.

Yawn...

Yup. With all the anxiety and analysis of: - Cole's knee - Davis's ball tracking - Edmund's impact plays JerseyBill sums up our reality. Yay!!!!!

This is the NFL, with exceptional and cautious medical teams. The fact that he was walking tells us it isn't that serious. No crutches, no walking boot, no wheel chair. The Bills are not going to let Cole walk across a tarmac if he has any type of serious lower body injury. I too want him to be 100%. But I feel like we're working to inject drama into this.

Barkley, Barkley, Barkley!!!

Josh is otherworldly tonight.

It seems we need not worry about Josh getting enough national adulation anymore.

We’ve got to be getting close to Matt Barkley time.

Yup! Whooping it up and laughing out loud.

As usual, he’s getting out coached by McDermott.

McDermott outcoaching Belichick again.

Just pointing out a reality that we may not have realized when we beat them. While I'm still confident in a potential Steelers playoff rematch, Big Ben may be more effective next time. Nothing more intended.

Right, but it does affect his ability to push off on throws and slide around around the pocket. Um, you can understand that, right?

Word on the Boston Bills Backers board is they land in Providence about now (Sunday at 4:30).

So, we learned today that Roethlisberger has been playing on a hyperextended knee since the WFT game, meaning we got him gimpy. Next time, he’ll be healthier.

Thanks! My computer and iPhone wallpaper for the playoffs.

We're on to New England.

I'm afraid I was a late bloomer. I was only 4 and 5 for these championships and didn't hop on the Bills bandwagon until I was 7. I apologize, with my head down in shame, for lateness in embracing the Bills.

ESPN, showing some Bills love in their week 16 predictions: Bold prediction: Predicting a Bills win in Foxborough isn't enough? In this resounding victory, Buffalo's Josh Allen will surpass the 400-yard passing mark as the Bills complete their first sweep of the reigning AFC East champions since 1999. -- Marcel Louis-Jacques Louis-Jacques' pick: Bills 27, Patriots 7 Reiss' pick: Bills 27, Patriots 17

It apparently bothers you, Patriot fan.

It is a fun place to be.

Thanks for sharing. That was a fun read - and not as hate filled as I would have thought. This avatar is off the charts funny.

Not a gift, but... At the end of 1999, I had a closet full of Bills winter jackets, all in great shape. I think I had eight of them. I decided to take them to the Open Door Mission in Rochester for homeless folks to stay warm. For the next two years, you would have thought the streets were full of Bills fans. You could always see someone walking, sleeping or just hanging out, in Bills' gear. It made me smile and laugh at the same time.
