Last year I had the pleasure of attending both BUF @ CAR, 9-3 and BUF @ JAC, 10-3. Both were pretty painful.
OUCH

That's pretty decent. My wife and I went on a 10 game winning streak from 2011-2015 where we didn't see them lose. Of course the game that killed that streak was NE in 2015 when we tried to break the sound barrier. The funny thing is there were a bunch of games I straight up expected them to lose during our streak including KC 2012, CAR/BAL 2013, GB 2014, and IND 2015 where heading into those game the Bills were underdogs.

The 6-3 Browns game has been thoroughly covered in this thread, so I'll go with another awful gameday experience:
Patriots over Bills, 56-10.
The game was flexed to Sunday night so that the national audience could see the undefeated Pats do their thing. Trent Edwards was hurt, so JP Losman got the start. I somehow believed that the Bills had a chance. Instead, Randy Moss caught FOUR first half touchdowns. That's not a misprint. The fun didn't end there. Belichick opted to go for it on 4th down, up 49-7. The Pats converted. Then the Bills faced a 4th down, and Jauron decided kicking the field goal would be best.
And that's all I have to say about that.Thats the game I picked. We left late 3rd and on our way to the parking lot heard the FG go through. Shout song and all came on and literally you heard nothing from the stadium otherwise. Sooo bad.

Last season... Bills at Jets Thursday night game. Bills were riding a wave, had already beaten the Jets earlier in the season, they were 5-2, looking to be 6-2 at the halfway point and in first place. Laid an egg, to start a 3 game losing streak where they were badly outplayed in all three (Jets, Saints, Chargers). After a good opening drive, they were beaten pillar to post the rest of the game... now I'm depressed!
That may be the all time worse for me watching wise. I went into that day soo freaking excited to the point had Bills sock and matching blue and red tie for work plus brought my mini Bills helmet. Got to our local bar we go to for night games which was pretty packed everyone was excited they had a special on Bills shots. It would've been the first time in my adult life I remember the Bills being 6-2 and genuinely feeling like the playoffs weren't a lie.
AND.... then the game started. I ended up Gronk spiking my Iphone in anger after Tyrod's fumble in the 3rd and we left after because I knew it was time for me to go home. I think I had a three day depression after because it just reconfirmed like 17 years of doubt and fear in literally 3 hours. I really give McD and the team credit for coming back after the 3 game skid because it was impossible to not view it as another tease.

Mine was also a Browns-Bills game. It was the Trent Edwards 3-pick 1st quarter MNF game.
To come back after all that, and let Brady Quinn make a drive, and we missed the field goal at the end........lots of people just sat there after game staring off into the distance. Those were the dark ages.
God I remember watching that game in college and you weren't as much angered as just so utterly shelled that they were so hopeless haha

Worst sporting event I've ever seen at any level ever
Anyone who attended this should be allowed paid therapy from the Bills for the pain they had to see

I have a feeling many people will respond similar. Worst game I have ever seen was that New England SNF game in 2007 when we lost 52-13. The tailgate was fun, but it felt like a blink of an eye and the game was 35-7. Just never even felt close at any point.
After that the 2010 season I saw the Bills get smoked by the Jets at home in the rain which was awful and the home finale against NE they lost 34-3 on a frigid like 10 degree day with snow. The lot we parked in literally consisted of are group and a few other groups while otherwise looking like the barren wastelands of Hoth haha.
Probably the most boring game I have seen was the Bills Dolphins TNF game in 2014 it was 3-3 at halftime and neither team had any interest in scoring.

Before training camp begins, its time to channel your inner Nostradamus and predict your super bowl matchup. I’ve got Los Angeles Rams vs. Oakland Raiders with Rams winning it all. Yours?
Packers Texans with GB winning.
Probably best Packer team on paper in a while as long as everyone is healthy. Defense added some nice pieces and Graham in the middle is a nightmare.
Texans are the most talented team in the AFC on paper assuming they still injury free to their main guys and Watson stays at the pace he was.

You'll be fine in Miami. About 1/3rd of the stadium is Bills fans and I've been there twice once at night once during the day. That tailgating scene isn't crazy but there is something neat about being outside with palmtrees tailgating. My interactions with their fans were great and if you bring up mutual hatrid of NE things get civil real quick anyway. The new roof they put on covers 90% of the stadium minus the vistor sideline, but the fans get covered by shade within the first 45 minutes so by early 2nd quarter we were fine. Just drink water incase. Food and drink prices weren't bad I thought.
The stadium has good sight lines the first time we were up for the TNF game in 2014 in 315 40 yard line about 5-7 rows up. Great sightlines and the noise was good but at the time the roof wasn't on. The second time we sat section 107 about 23 rows up and the sight lines were good for the most part. Ironically we didn't see the Landry hit on A Williams because it was toward the other sideline but you can see pretty well anyway plus the video boards are nice.
Safest place I thought overall it was pretty fair, but somehow Bills fans seem to congrate in the 100 level endzones areas pretty heavily from what I remember.
You'll have a blast I just hope you have better luck win wise, both times I've been the Bills blew leads they shouldn't have. 2016 was especially bad considering we were up 10 pts in the 4th.42 minutes ago, Gugny said:I was just looking at attendance stats. It says there were over 65,000 people at the Week 17 Fins/Bills game.
I don't remember what the crowd looked like, but I'd be shocked if 65K in Miami showed up for a meaningless (to them) week 17 game.
So many of their fans are in the club areas. When we went to the 2014 night game the stadium was literally 60% full until Miami took the lead and then it was like mice coming out of the woodwork...which lasted until 5 minutes to go in the fourth and they all left again haha.

This edleman incident has brought to light how effin stupid my fellow patriots fans are. They think this is a huge consparicy and all that. They dont seem to grasp the fact that while the substance was unkown that only means they dont know what product he used. They dont grasp that they found banned substance in his tox. They cant comprehend that all testing is random and done independant of the league. They are also outraged by ruben foster getting 2 games while he gets 4. Well personally using ped should be more than off field conduct. Off field conduct dose not enhance the level of play on the field.
Deflategate effectively gave NE fans a true reason to think the NFL and other Owners have it out for them given that just about everything the NFL said was wrong.

Rogers is better then 5 or 6 people on that list right now even if he never plays another game.
Cowboy bias. Gil Brandt like many Cowboy people have some bias to GB given the Packers have had their way with Dallas. Staubach is appropriately placed but Aikman doesn't belong near this. He's a HOF but he isn't better then Rodgers or Dan Fouts who also is omitted.

That puts you in company with Kiper and McShay.
And keep in mind you're talking with someone who once thought Fitzpatrick would be Our Guy. So there's that.
Their start with Fitz in 2011 made it so hard not to believe in them and even going into 2012 I was pretty bullish on him myself. Ugh

Haha where to start:
2007- Went to the Patriots night game convinced we would upset them because of how well we played against Dallas and we were I believe 5-4 figured we would start a run.
2008- McKelvin pick thought he was gonna be an all pro
2009- Was not upset at the time that someone vandalized McKelvin's lawn because he blew the game. As an adult now obviously see it as wrong.
2010- Hated the CJ pick wanted a QB like Colt McCoy or someone else ...whoops
2011- Thought Fitz was the real did as did a lot of other people after the start they had
2012- Was convinced Dave W would unleash a furious defense and instead got a puppy
2013- I bought EJ Manuel as the guy hardcore from training camp right into the season. Bought his jersey week 4 before BAL game and thought he would tear up the 2014 season. Then the season started he looked shaky and then he was pick 6'd by Watt. Gave up on him that moment. He never looked the same after the Cleveland game when his knee got hit and the coaches never seem to let him run again either.
2014- After the Dolphins TNF disaster which I was at in person I wanted Art Brilles as head coach because the Bills offense was so pathetic and at the time Baylor was rolling up anyone..whoops
2015- Was in the lower 100s after the Colts game chanting we want Brady. Went the next week and no longer wanted Brady. Also gave up on Rex Ryan after the Jacksonville disaster. If the Bills in my eyes were a playoff team and he was a decent enough coach they would've beat a crappy Jacksonville team. They didn't and I took down all of my Bills outdoor house decorations the moment I got home, season was over for me at that point and I was just waiting then for Rex to be fired.
2017- Thought the team was 4-12 5-11 at best. Thought after the 3 game slide they would just continue like the other pretenders and McD would join a list of Bills coaches who couldn't hack it. Was thrilled to be as wrong as I was.

Within 10 years NFL teams will be wearing a different suit every week like they do in college is my prediction.
Frankly I'd relish this. I wish they wore their AFL blue throwbacks like they use to those are the best unis they have period IMO.

I think the only reason Bills went with red in the Hoth game was maximum visibility in the blizzard.
Can we just establish that the Colts game now is officially known as the "Hoth Game" as of today?

No way this is a 2-14 or 3-13 team. None. They are much better than that.
Right that is why I have them at 5 games and could easily see them win around 7

Wow was unaware of late season bias. Harrison Philips and Star are real steps up from the guys we had in there after trading Marcel Dareus. Thorton, Worthy and Washington were traffic pylons IMHO.
The numbers rebounded a bit after the 3 game sked but that also coincided with Milano returning to being a starter and a slightly easier stretch of games.

I think the offense will hold serve. therefore if the defense moves into the top 10 I see a playoff push..... and where did I say I doubt the defense. I said its a big "if". and it is. they have to improve quite a bit to get there. that doesn't mean I don't think they improve. don't be so defensive.
you apparently think the offense is in for some sort of nosedive. I don't think that's the case at all. its not like they were very good last year. and you totally underrate how bad dennison was and how much a difference it can make if you have an OC working on emphasizing his players strengths.
it wont surprise me one bit if the team goes 5-11 next year. also wouldn't surprise me if they went 9-7 or 10-6.... it would, however, surprise me if they had a top 10 d and went 5-11.
You also underrating that Taylor was a competent enough QB to drive the train correctly. Peterman and AJ are far bigger wildcards by comparison.
And who does the offense have? An aging McCoy with Benjamin who has injury issues and Clay the same. After that you have a spaced out Zay who just had knee surgery and Kerley who may be OK. Thats it. Then a ton of unknowns which every football fan thinks is the next star when 99% of the time they might make it as a 4th stringer. And the offensive line is a huge question mark afters year of stability losing two pro bowl starters with Wood and Incognito. How is that not a nosedive, they just let two of their better receivers go with Deonte Thompson who may have been their best and Matthews who is better when healthy then everyone minus Benjamin.

I have a VERY hard time believing if the defense turns into a top 10 unit that they are gonna go 5-11 like you guess in the OP. theres enough pieces on offense and lets not forget dennison is now gone. I personally believe daboll will be better than him by default... if(BIG IF) the defense morphs to top 10 like you hope in the above post i'm expecting a playoff push.
Denver was 5-11 last year with a defense that was 3rd in total yards allowed, Chicago 5-11 was 10th, even Cleveland 0-16 was 14th. Jacksonville in 2016 was 6th overall in total yards and went 3-13. Just because you have a defense that rates well it does not guarantee wins if the offense can't put up points or stay on the field. The Bills offense at best has massive question marks and realistically is bottom 5 in the league as currently set. I could care less about what Daboll can do because at a certain point you need players to execute your scheme otherwise its just great idea's.
If you want to doubt the defense that's fine but saying they should be in the top half near Top 10 like I have said for months now doesn't seem like a leap given their secondary and additions on the front 7.

So "The Tank" that was supposed to be last year, is actually this year? Got it.
How is this a Tank? The Bills currently have one of the worst WR corps, no true answer at QB, and O line questions that have no answer. They benefited like crazy off turnovers in one score games which easily could've went the other way and would've been 7-9 or worse. This is a rebuilding year by the very definition where hopefully the defense progresses into a Top 10 unit and if Allen starts he shows the promise you want to see long term.
Could they surprise and be better? Of course. But statistically they should see a regression in turnover luck, they are playing a schedule that is tougher then last years by a lot, and the offense is a massive question mark which outside of McCoy should instill zero confidence in it producing more. I look at this season as the way the Vikings did in 2014 with their team. The talent was their on D and they took their time to break in their rookie which the Bills should do. It setup a superb 2015 year for them and more long term which is far more valuable.

i can respect your post. Although, AJ will be the starter and I don't think our defense will give up that many points to anyone this season. If our defense can live up to its potential, I think we'll allow 13-17 points per game. it'll be our offense that needs to shine and close out games this year. Our schedule looks tough, but every game is winnable, including against the Patriots.
My thing with the D especially in the first half is they can play well only allow 20-21 points but a turnover by the offense where it puts the D at our own 10 with 8 to go and they've been on the field for 35 minutes is not an appetizing situation. I actually think by the end of the season they will be close to dominant and setup for a nice run long term just will take time.
And I can respect anyone who thinks the team will be better. I thought last year they were a 5 -6 win team and the schedule was rough and they proved me wrong and it was blast to follow as a fan. Just based off where we are right now I am not bullish.

I don't know why people bother with these studies and get upset. These studies always are looking at brand, marketability, $ drivers, etc.. Bills fans in the sports world are known in the elitist of the elite for passion and loyalty. It showed really well after they made the playoffs and people went to the airport. We will never be super high even if we win a super bowl because we arent Dallas or NYC for example.

5-11 seems pretty reasonable to me.
My only difference is the Titans beat us and we beat the Colts, I think Andrew Luck wont be anything near what he was, they have a terrible roster and a potentially crippled QB. If you make those two changes to your predictions we start 0-8, the pressure to start J Allen if he already inst will be enormous.
I could see that although I am not nearly as high on the Titans as some and I believe Luck will be back like he was and even if the roster sucks he can elevate them pretty far.

Appreciate the quick format and read to justify your 5-11 prediction. I tend to do prediction by what conferences we play (AFC South and NFC North) and that we also draw 2nd place AFC teams (SD and BAL). We went 3-3 in our own division last year and I don't see us getting better as NYJ have new QB and MIA get their QB back.
How I see us doing by conference:
AFCE 3-3
NFCN 2-2
AFCS 2-2
SD/BAL 0-2
Overall 7-9 And I do see Allen starting after the bye as well
Yea I have wavered between 5,6,7 wins at this point. Division wise I don't see us sweeping either MIA and NYJ for reasons you said. The Jets have really added to their defense and Miami should be better culture wise which should help. The SD/BAL/GB/MIN start is a killer and they have to find a way to be at least 1-3 if they think they can be a playoff team.
What Is The Worst Bills Game You've Attended
in The Stadium Wall Archives
Posted
The 56-10 game was a very cold but clear night no rain or snow. But very cold for November.
The 2010 NE game was far worse snowed most of it, wind, etc.. We had a fire which I basically was standing in when we tailgated because it was so cold. Only colder game I can remember attending was the Steelers in 2016. Our beer for beer pong literally froze on top to the point the balls broke the ice and the cans were freezing. FUN TIMES haha
