Will Bass end up as Bills All Time leading scorer?
BillsFanSD replied to Back2Buff's topic in The Stadium Wall
Not gonna lie -- I was wondering if the Bills might sign somebody off the street after week 1 last season. Glad I wasn't running the team at the time. -
I don't think we should be trading away assets this year, and I definitely don't want to see Trubisky traded away. We can win a playoff game or two with Trubisky under center IMO -- obviously he's a big step down from Allen, but I wouldn't mind our chances if we had to start him in a WC against the Browns or somesuch. Unless we're just completely bending Washington over -- and this is Dan Snyder we're talking about so it's not like that's out of the question or anything -- don't do it.

How do you deep down, really feel about this defense?
BillsFanSD replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think if the defense had been playing this well last year, we'd be talking about whether we can win back-to-back super bowls.- 165 replies

The TD was fine. As a bunch of other people have noted, the Bills couldn't run the clock out without getting a first down. They ran the ball, and Miami's defense couldn't stop them. That's on Miami, not us. I'm indifferent about the 2 point attempt. At least that gave Miami a chance to keep a couple of points off the board -- not sure why that should be considered running it up but taking the PAT isn't. Maybe the Dolphins should worry more about their terrible scouting and preposterous wastes of draft picks instead.

They're right. If you look at the remaining schedule, 15-2 is a perfectly plausible scenario for this team. Do I expect that to happen? No. There are two lose-able games on the schedule (NO and TB), and even if the Bills win each of the other 9 games 90% of the time (overly optimistic), that implies another probable loss somewhere due to randomness. But regardless, what kind of line would we be looking at if we played Baltimore or KC or Tampa or Arizona on a neutral field? Does anybody really think that we would be significant dogs to any of those teams? I don't.

Anyone Have This Frustration With The Titans Game
BillsFanSD replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall
Nobody is going to feel like losing a tough game on the road against the Titans in week 6 in any way detracts from our Lombardi trophy. -
Dude. We probably win this game 80% of the time just starting from the 4th and 1 play at the end of the game. Never mind all the times we replay this game and march into the fourth quarter with a three possession lead. Our offensive line played horribly. Our defense collapsed down the stretch. Our offensive playcalling wasn't the best. And yet we were still in a very good position to win the game at the end. Elite teams occasionally lose games like this -- nobody goes undefeated. It's no big deal and it's a wild overreaction to draw overarching conclusions based on a tiny sample of games that you cherry-picked. I've spent the past 20 years watching every Bills game through the lens of "Is this team heading in the right direction for long term success?" Every loss was a reason to reconsider whether we had the right coach or the right QB. Every loss was a reason to question whether we made the right selections on draft day. Every loss was a statement about the culture inside the locker room. Finally, FINALLY we reached a point last season where it became blindingly obvious that we have the right GM, we have the right coach, and we have the right QB. These guys are going to fixtures of the franchise for the next decade. They are going to win a boatload of games, and I will be disappointed if a championship or two is not among them. We have reached a really good spot as a franchise. That doesn't mean that we won't lose the occasional tough game to a decent opponent. But it does mean that a loss is just a loss. It's no big deal.

We need to ease off on other fans' misery.
BillsFanSD replied to BringBackFergy's topic in The Stadium Wall
I would never wallow in the misfortune of another team. Unless the team in question was the Patriots, Dolphins, Jets, or Cowboys. Then I wallow like a champ. -
God no don't take a time out.
