SinceThe70s

I'm just getting caught up on this thread and as soon as I saw @LABILLBACKER's Buddhist reference the first thing that came to mind was "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change...". It's kind of ridiculous to apply it to a football team winning or losing vs. what you went through with your son. And yet I'm 100% on board with the sentiment wrt the Bills.

There are some who call you.......................Tim?

Great player and I learned last night a class act too. Compare his smile/embrace to how Mahomes interacted with Josh after we beat the Chiefs in the regular season last year.

We won the game in large part because we played mistake free. That's a common component to winning in the NFL and not something to be ashamed of. As to your stipulation that we could not afford to make any mistakes - that was true in large part due to the fact that we only put up 6 points in the second half. Raise your hand if you thought 6 more points would be enough to win at half time. Personally I thought we needed 7 on the first drive of the 3rd quarter. Take the w's any way you can get them, but mistake free football is a strong start.

He absolutely wanted to pitch it to Cook. Glad he didn't, would've been a poor choice. On the flip side the Cooper flip to Josh was a play of the year and I don't want Josh to ever lose who he is. Good times.

I can agree with this post while at the same appreciate the "know-it-all" posters who would clearly be coach of the year perennially given the opportunity.

I'm still rolling with the Squirrel Winters t-shirt. The Bruce jersey hasn't made it out of the closet this year. Good times.

Guess #1: the players responsible for the turnovers Guess #2: the players who dropped passes Guess #3 (sorry for not playing by your rules): the head coach who led a team that lost due to turnovers and dropped passes.

I went from elation that they missed the two point conversion to dread at the thought that the game came down to covering an on-sides kick in bad conditions vs. trusting Josh to get us into FG position with 1:33 and two time outs left.

If we didn't make it and the Ravens went 98/99 yards and didn't need a 2 point conversion the other y'all folks would be out in full force. It was a choice with no guarantee either way.

You missed #4 imo. Take your chances in OT if 1-3 go the wrong way. The worst of the 4 but still a shot to win.

The way to catch a knuckleball is to wait until it stops rolling and then pick it up. I can't count the number of times I've said "Juuuust a bit outside!" or went to a game and said "I must be in the front row!" RIP to a legend.

Ex-Jet Aaron Glenn's name comes up a lot.

Interesting comparison. Raiders got stuck behind the success of the Steelers dynasty and missed out on one SB opportunity due to the immaculate reception - and yes I get that play wasn't a failure on the coaches - still an interesting comparison on the thin line between winning and losing for the also-rans Ironically some think the Steelers team that lost to the Raiders in the 1976 championship game was their strongest team of that era- I looked it up and they gave up 9.9 points per game that year.
