    Bills fans are weak

     

    If Bills fans were weak, there wouldn't be any.  We choose to spend our weeks and Sundays pulling for the Little Engine that Could.  IMO, it takes much intestinal fortitude to keep coming back for more.  Some of our most diehard have been doing this since the AFL days.

     

    If anything, it's the conditioning of decades of losing.  I know the players weren't here for the Music City Miracle and the drought that ensued, but a lot of us were... and we've seen the Bills are best are breaking the hearts of their fans.  It's going to take some reverse conditioning before it gets a lot better. 

     

    If two decades of winning can make unbearable jerks of Pats fans, this is the other end of the spectrum.

     

    For the record, I do NOT think this is the same old BIlls.

    Come at me Ed Oliver defenders. Tell .e he was worth#9. Illustrate the plays he's made to change games I'll wait. ***** garbage.

     

    It's only taken Shaq Lawson three of four years to start making some plays.  Where's your patience, man?

     

    I'm kidding a bit but like you, I do wish Oliver would get his name called more often (and no, not for Offside or roughing the passer).  Clowney took a bit to get started (year two I'd say).  Hopefully he will start paying more dividends sooner than later.

    trade for Teddy B.  

     

    Teddy Bruschi?  I don't think he can help us and I wouldn't want it anyway.  :D

     

    I understand that Allen made the mistake that got this thing rolling for the Eagles but the Bills lost as a team today.  Top to bottom, plenty of blame to spread around.  Let's see how they respond next week before writing off another season.

     

    JA is learning on the job and it can be most frustrating to watch sometimes.  I'm sorry I can't remember who posted it earlier, but right now, I do agree that he's holding his own against his draft class (Mayfield, Darnold, Rosen, and Jackson).  He was also considered the least pro-ready but is still already on the field.  I think we may have a made a leap with Edmunds too, forcing him into a roll that he may never be truly fit for (he's definitely not Luke Keuchly).  Time will tell.

    Well, we get to play Washington. That should make us look better.

     

    This team (and I really should say we, the fanbase) shouldn't be overlooking ANY opponent.  What makes you think they'll walk the dog against the Redskins?  They play to the level of the opponent, without fail.

     

    This was a good game but a few bad decisions and bad execution are going to be the undoing.  The Eagles aren't the powerhouse they were but they're closer to fundamentally sound and they have a better overall roster and coaching.  Tip of the hat to them... they were backed into a corner after last week's loss to Dallas and they came out and played a better game.

    Amazing how many times this season Allen turnovers have swung momentum in a game. Geez.

     

    But he has the 4th quarter magic!  It's the sweet and the sour.  I think Josh is going to be alright.  We were told he'd be a project and he's already starting and learning on the job.  It's frustrating at times but we've all been beneficiaries of those great plays he makes, too.

  6. IMO, Fitz is just as bright as Brady or Rogers, he just doesn't have all the physical tools they have.  I'm no Fitz hater... he's been my favorite Bills QB since Y2K, remember when he beat the Patriots?  The guy played hard for us.  I wanted/expected him to do well, just without getting the Win.
