    Visited the Ralph in 2006 I think. Pats * at Bills. Brady roasted the Bills 35-7. Light snowfall that days. 
     

    there was a group of Pats* fans sitting behind us one wearing an 80s Capparelli jersey. They were complete mass holes. They outnumbered us 3-1 is my guess why the acted like that. Really wanted to take that god awful Cap jersey off and stuff it down his throat. 

    Same era, same scenario, probably a different game... This is what fueled my hatred of the Pats. They would come to our house and gloat over Bills fans. Running through the concourse shouting like they owned the place and yelling in Bills fans faces like we were their piss ant subjects to abuse. Totally took over the place from 4th quarter on. I also blame everyone who left and let that happen.

    If the offense keeps struggling does Dorsey get fired ?

    Deep Breath everyone. Isn't it obvious that Josh and company have the ability to turn it off and on throughout the season? They did the same thing last year with empty sets, then refocusing on the run game and developing /improving heavy sets. Everyone was freaked out but it became apparent that the team was working on it's weaknesses and trying to get to the playoffs at a peak. Look at the end of year / playoffs last year... They put together everything they had learned and developed throughout the year into one of the premier offenses ever in those few games that mattered the most. One of McDermott's mantras is continual improvement, which literally in the business world sometimes means deconstructing, assessing realities, performing at less than optimal production in order to take the time to develop greater capacity, efficiency, and competency in the long run. I do believe that is what we are witnessing... Hence Josh's "Okay" near eye roll answer the other day.  Can we support our team now please?!?!

    How does almost the exact same script play out in back to back prime time games like this??? Two 17-16 games where a team who managed to only score 3 points the whole game til the last 4-5 minutes then pulls off back to back TDs to win with seconds left. I’m back to back prime time games tho. A statistical anomaly for sure.

    Hmmm, very true. Perhaps we are at an inflection point in the vibration of time. From now on Brady will be more Baker and Baker will be more Brady. Biden will get younger... And the Bills will win four straight Super Bowls as bell bottoms return.

    Dane Jackson was toast 😬

    What I have seen is... Teams are not often throwing the type of passes our cornerbacks are good at defending (simple square ins and outs, short slants, deep square ins, come backers). They are challenging downfield or on double moves that get the defenders to turn their back to the quarterback or sideline, running towards holes in the coverage. And the line hasn't been getting as much quick pressure to beat these longer developing plays.

    Will Bills Make it to Detriot Rested for the Game?

    You think shoveling/snow blowing 5-6+ feet of snow is easy? It's a crazy workout involving muscles you rarely use and in general using muscles in ways they haven't been trained to work repeatedly.

    Actually Josh Allen is in good shape to go house to house and shovel all the driveways. It's the same motion as trying to bail out the rest of the team

    I have Game Pass and could have rewatched the game at any time. Finally was able to get up the stomach to watch it this morning. I had forgotten how many missed opportunities there were earlier in the game to build a lead against the Chiefs. I know it's a cliche that one play or one series of plays doesn't lose the game and of all games to apply that to this seemed like the one, but in hind sight, this game was really not that different. It didn't have to end in a shootout.  Dane Jackson wasted holding call on 3rd and goal from the 12.  Three drives ending in lame ass run plays on third and short that resulted in punts. Could have been the same on the first drive of the game, except they were at midfield and went for and converted on 4th down. The 55 yard punt to Tyreek Hill that was well covered and included a penalty by the Chiefs to back them up to their own 15 EXCEPT a Bills player was also flagged (for running out of bounds on purpose!) RESULT re-kick and Hill return to the Bills 15

    Did the Bills Super Bowl run in the 1990's really influence your love of the Bills?

    I was in 6th through 9th grade for the SB runs.  That era ABSOLUTELY weighed into me sticking with them all these years.  For me it was my childhood team and even though there was so much pain in those SB losses that era hooked me for life.

    Exactly the same for me. I was actually a Broncos fan for a couple minutes some time before I latched onto the Bills at age 9 or so. The Bills were great and I admired that greatness. Then they quickly proceeded to break my heart over and over again but by that point I was not letting go no matter what
