My thoughts are that I live about 15 miles north of M&T Stadium in Baltimore County, and I am so glad that I stayed home & didn't go to the game. I'm also glad that I didn't watch it in a sports bar either, surrounded by Ravens fans. Work will be brutal tomorrow; I will be blaming everything on Peterman.
I don't want to compare them, but (for better or worse), Lewis, Fitzy, and TT were all gamers. Even if the results ended up dismal, I always felt going in with them that the Bills had a chance of winning.

...because no Bills debacle is complete without reading Sully's take.

Sully pointed out that the last 5 QBs making their Opening Day debut starting for the Bills haven’t thrown a pick. They went 4-1, winning the 4 by an average of 21.5 points. The last Bills QB throwing a pick in his Opening Day debut? Drew Bledsoe.
It remains to see what happens today, but I will be optimistic and positive. Just like Sully.
If Sully wasn’t around during the drought, the News would’ve run columns like:
”All EJ needs is more time.”
”Doug Whaley, football genius.”
