bowery4 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Me too. Apparently though wins or losses. I'm still here. But this version really does seem different. GO BILLS!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I've loved this team for 50 years, I always find something to get excited about...but this year I'm really excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enemarty Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Told my boys as EJ took the field for that last drive, that this could be the first day of the rest of our football lives...and I thinnk it was for all of us...hoping EJ and the Bills crush the Jets and add to the winning feeling. my 16 year old daughter turned to me as stevie caught the touchdown pass and said, "dad, that was different."

Kelly the Dog Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 It remains to be seen but this just feels, and looks, different. I'm not trying to be ageist, as I am an old guy myself, but the Brandon and Whaley front office, leading the Marrone, Pettine, Hackett led team, with the young QB, looks and is a whole different animal. It's a fresh start and it's already refreshing. Energy and enthusiasm is significantly different. There is not very many decision makers that have been making decisions that led to all those dreary years. Half the players are already gone from the 7-9 seasons as well. The feeling and the look in the building and on the field doesn't have a lot of similarity to previous Bills teams. It has to be proven on the field, over a couple years, but the worm could well have finally turned. I'm excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucethomas34 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Buffalo Bills be bowl bound baby! Lets beat a mediocre division team before all you two pump chumps start throwing the L word around. Just sayin. The Jets are going down Gary, only the Bills are going to Bills this...New York is going down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-8 Forever? Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 That is all But will you still love them if they lose 23 - 13 to the Jets and EJ throws 2 picks due to rookie learning curve and we fumble away another, resulting in 3 short field Jet scoring drives (but otherwise look pretty good as a team) ?? That is the big question. I am looking for improvement among the inevitable setbacks. I see a premature playoff bandwagon starting to roll .... we've seen this before. But on the other hand, fan stands for fanatic, so all good. go bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on the other hand, fan stands for fanatic, so all good. go bills. I think he will. I know I will. In that split second when EJ was picked, but before I realized there was a flag on the field, I felt satisfied that the team had taken another step in the right direction. Sure I was disappointed that, in that instant, we appeared to have come up short, but was overall pleased with what I thought was in many ways a solid performance from the team. Maybe that is lowered expectations, but I look at it, as KTD mentions above, part of the maturation process of a young team, young coaching staff and young front office. So, if we don't get a PI this week that allows us to steal the W at the end, but otherwise, as you say, take positive steps, I'll be very happy.

Kemp2Warlick Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I lived in Buffalo from the beginning of the Bills franchise and lived in many,many places since then...I always remained a Bills fan and will be one to the very end.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 That is all I've always been in it deep, but this team.... Man this team is intoxicating. They are so cohesive and fun to watch, so much talent so many play makers. This one draft class has more collective talent and potential than the last 5 combined. The coach is on the podium acting like he lost because they had to have some lucky breaks to win and made key mistakes, instead of acting like he won a Super Bowl. The defense is aggressive and fast with big fast players. The offense has elusive players, slippery players and electric players. The QB fires absolute lasers down the middle or lofts sweet touch passes to the flat. My 4 year old and 1 year got to attend their fist game last week.... Just incredible.

Like a 53 year tantric orgasm. PTR I, as i am sure many others, will stop to think about those who have left this earth yet shared so many of those experiences with us. It will be so awesome when the Bills do finally win it all. Lets hope we are on that path. This team makes me think we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a 53 year tantric orgasm. PTR Wild wishcasting here: imagine if the Buffalo Bills were to win the SB in New Jersey this year? That would be the biggest, most ridiculous, ironic and mind blowing thing that could happen in football this year, short of Tebow leading the Jags to the playoffs. I doubt Jersey would ever recover from that, and it would give us lifetime ownership of them. I have a, new, dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskik11 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I love the board's enthusiasm....jury is still out for me... Just waiting for the wheels of the wagons to spin off as they usually do Hope I'm wrong. Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max997 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Ill like it a lot better when they open the offense up bc its pretty boring and aggravating to watch right now Love the defense but its obvious the up tempo offense not being able to keep drives going is wearing them down as the game goes on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Vader Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 When the regular season started I did not know what to expect from the Bills. In some ways I still do not know what to expect. And there's a long way to go in this season. One thing I will agree with is that there is a different feeling about this team. The attitude of the Bills is a whole lot different than the passive, downplayed, stoic attitudes of recent teams. You look at the coaching staff and the players and you can see that they are out there to win. That alone gets me excited about the Bills. Whether it happens this year or not, I believe it is safe to say that there is something special in store for the Bills. I Love This Team! GO BILLS!!!!!
