  1. Nothing to compare Pats to Dolphins rival series. Dolphins winning 20 straight created a tense atmosphere between the teams.  Players disliked each other the media from Miami would write derogatory articles about the city of Buffalo.

    Players did not change teams so much.  There was more carry over from year to year.  Nothing like watching the fans tear down the goalposts after the streak was broken.  Bills got payback in the 90's.  Not sure when the Pats dominance ends.

  2. I took my kid when he was 10 to a dolphins game when Marino played my son was a fan of his. He heard all kinds of language directed his way. I was starting to fear for our safety. To top it off a couple was sitting near us with matching shirts that started F .., the dolphins. Last time I took the kid.

  3. A couple things about that article.

     

    That Steelers game in the snow in Buffalo convinced me that we were ready to move on from the Rex regime. I've been watching our Bills a long time, and never was I more let down about the fact that our team got pushed around so badly in that weather. I mean, that's OUR weather. That's our home field advantage. Instead, some of our players (not all) looked like they had never seen the stuff before. So, the things that our former players said about moving indoors when the weather turned lousy certainly showed up to me in that game in particular.

     

    Now moving on to today, I'm very optimistic that our new coach is so detail oriented. I'm thinking he won't let the small details that that Boston Globe article talks about go by the wayside for an easier life for himself or the players. At least this is what we've been presented so far. We haven't played a down yet...but I like what I'm seeing so far. I'm liking the discipline and detail. Heck, they even got Dareus out there sweating in OTA.

     

    Like I said, lets see how it plays out. But so far, I'm optimistic about the future with McDermott and Beane running things. Lets hope to a long regime where a detail oriented and winning philosophy can become ingrained into the culture and we can go back to owning the division for a while.

    Cant say it any better!
