It's October. There will be a whiteout soon enough. Why rush it? Besides, that is the worst Bills jersey ever. 👎

Probably because 99% of fans if not 100% of fans love the shout song .. it was made to be the bills anthem

 

Mr brightside is obviously very popular but  I don't know if I see 20 years of tradition brewing 

 

There's plenty of people even here who are meh about Mr brightside.. I don't think it's going to have much legs in 10 years when most of this team is gone 

 

And contemporary music ebbs and flows.. there will be another popular song that resonates eventually.. in 2035 they'll probably pick a song from 2020

Don’t the Steelers always play some dirtbag 70s hard rock song that still whips a whole stadium up after 50 years?

why did they take the delay if they were going to kick? still seemed like bad clock management

Run down every possible second in case the kick is missed and they get the ball back in a one score game?

[James Cook absent from OTA's]

It sucks or whatever, but I never really blame these guys for “holdout” tactics. NFL players have so little leverage overall when it comes to contracts and guaranteed money. Agree it’s a risky game for an RB to play though.

Good for him. Sounds like a great gig for a trainer, pretty much top of the heap.

Holy **** what a terrible call to start the game.

 

I don’t think the NFL is fixed but a terrible call in favor of KC to start the game sure isn’t going to help quiet that narrative. 

Like Bill Burr said after our loss a few weeks ago, does he think things are “fixed”? No. But they are “massaged.”

[Hard to beat the Chiefs and the refs every post-season]

I've been arguing with (mainly kc fans) all week on Twitter regarding the refs. There's seems to be a mis understanding between favoring and outright cheating. 

 

KC fans seem to think that bills fans think that the Chiefs and refs are just out right cheating and winning the games for kc. The reality is, the Chiefs get favorable calls, which greatly reduces the margin for error for the opposing team. 

 

Example 1 - Mahomes takes a deep shot to worthy where Cole Bishop jumps to intercept ball. Ball hits ground with no clear possession between worthy or bishop, but refs call a complete pass to worthy, a play or 2 later, Chiefs score 7 points. Now, imagine if this play was called incomplete. Kc maybe doesn't get a td, or maybe bills hold them to a fg, or maybe they get no points. So, kc gets a favorable call and walks away with 7

 

Example 2 - Josh Allen is marked short of the 1st down on 4th down. 99% of football fans would tell you he got it. The other 1% are kc fans that say he never crossed the line, even though we have over head angles clearly showing he got. Ball goes back to kc who goes down the field and scores 7 points. Now, imagine if the refs call 1st down and the bills score. They take a possible 8 point lead, or 4 point lead with a fg. Or possibly punt, who knows. But again, a favorable call that swings the Chiefs way that greatly shrinks the margin for error for the bills. 

 

Are the refs out right cheating? No, but they are swinging games. 

Bill Burr this week said he doesn’t feel the games are rigged, but they are massaged. 

[Day #14 after the loss to KC: Feeling better? Worse? Why? (Thread started at Day #2)]

I’m fine. I learned a long time ago to not waste too much energy on ***** I can’t control. I give myself 24 hours to mope over sports-related disappointment and then move on. 
 

It does do my heart good to see how many people far removed from BillsMafia are howling about the questionable calls.  Plenty of people are bitching on our behalf. Saw a funny clip of Bill Burr on Rich Eisen’s show saying he doesn’t think things are “fixed” but they definitely get “massaged.” 

[What are you doing to get out of this funk?]

I have a new guitar arriving this week. In the back of my mind I knew I’d have that as my little thing to look forward to this week if the game turned out the way it did. Gotta find the joy where we can. 

[The Bills beat the Ravens because of you... (superstition/karma reasons)]

Because we didn’t go to the game. We were at the last two ***** divisional games. We skipped last night. You’re all welcome.

I don't know how this team with so many achilles heels and so poorly coached can be up 14-0 on the best team in football.  Luck I suppose.

Pitchforks and torches with McDermott’s name on them are slowly being returned to their sheds. Until next time we go down a score. 

[McD: Has your view changed?]

My opinion of him hasn’t really changed, I’m just glad he had enough success early on to buy himself time to get into a good groove. I’ve always looked at the Steelers as the model of consistent success. Stable ownership and only four head coaches in like 60 years, and Tomlin’s never had a losing season. 
 

When we hired him, I didn’t know if he’d be the next Mike Tomlin (W&M teammates aside), but I knew that the next Mike Tomlin wouldn’t be a splashy name, rather a smart young guy who has earned and is getting his first HC gig. And if you hit it right (along with QBs) your coaching staff and thus entire franchise can be a stable, consistent, winning unit for 20+ years.
 

So far so good. An AFC title and a Lombardi are the only things left that would really cement it.

Yup. I was barely a teenager during the Super Bowl runs, young and dumb and just thought “well of course your team just goes to the championship every year, this isn’t special.” Not so much. Savor what you can while you can.
