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.

And the rats continue to desert the sinking ship.

Admission - me too. Never have been so happy to have been so wrong.

For the record, that is what I’m doing.

Agreed. I have lived here for nearly three years now. It seems they are totally into local teams and don't seem to notice, or be aware of, the rest of the leagues they are in. I will say that they are more globally aware for baseball. Oh, and from what I've experienced, they think the Bills are "cute".

Maybe Pittsburgh was better off with the Duck QBing?

Same here. We suffered, we waited, we strategized, planned and got him. No trade. We have Josh.

Just got home from checking it out. Fox Sports put this billboard up on Route 1, three miles from Gillette Stadium. The Billboard celebrates Bills fans as the best in the NFL. It will remain up for two weeks. For we Bills fans in the Boston area, it is a "must see, must selfie".

Yes we do. Pound. The. Rock!

I don’t think this is any big deal. It is an intense sport and players are going to occasionally shout out....nothing to see here.

Thank you for making my point. There is a good chance I will call you out whenever it suits me.

While I don't disagree with you, I have to say that your personal lack of humility is quite a turn off. Are you filling some inner need by being so condescending on chat boards? Hmm.....please, get over yourself.

Beat New England.

A sign of how (wonderfully) times have changed - New England looms as a potential "let down" game.

I read that he injured his back. No idea on extent or severity.
