Peace Frog Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 We know what to expect from Brady & Belichick (i.e., Darth Vader & The Emperor) this Sunday. Rex & the Bills know what to expect. Rex will have them ready to play. The key is to rattle Brady early so he gets frustrated. His one weakness is his poutiness when he's frustrated. To me, it would be worth a couple of 5 yd and an automatic first down for NE for defensive holding on all of their receivers at the same time so our pass rush can have time to get a few hits on Brady early.

PTBS Post Traumatic Bills Syndrome.i have this. Yesterday it was 24-0 and everything went through my mind about games we lost where we were in control and then gave it away. I was wondering who it would be this time. Then I remembered certain players who shall remain nameless were no longer on the field. It felt different, no doubt.

Nihilarian Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 It's called Battered Buffalo Fan Syndrome. Most Bills fans are by now genitally engineered to be skeptical about every win, and be overly cautious about every good game or season start. Recently the Bills started the 2008 season 5-1, and the 2011 season 4-1 only to see bad things happen to ruin a good start. 55 years, and 21 winning seasons equates to 34 losing seasons.

Pilsner Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Estelle, if this at all will lift your spirits, I perused patsfans.com today and saw that a good number of level headed pats fans are a bit nervous about playing the Bills.

The BLUES Brothers Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 i have this. Yesterday it was 24-0 and everything went through my mind about games we lost where we were in control and then gave it away. I was wondering who it would be this time. Then I remembered certain players who shall remain nameless were no longer on the field. It felt different, no doubt. But it will take much more to curb my PTBS. This is what I was going through too!!! We ( Wife, son, daughter & I aka "the one with the wallet" are at the game and we are Loving Life!! Lost my Voice in first half. Yet even in the 3rd quarter I was queasy thinking of that awful Dallas MNF game - and how Luck can do big comebacks... but still smiling Big on Tuesday Morning that our Coaches & Players did not allow that to happen. One thing that was reassuring was we managed & performed the plays to burn the clock - We have smart Coaches and that'll help the players to follow. I don't know what it will take to shake the PTBS for me but big step for me Sunday. Go Bills!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Sunday in the late 3rd quarter, my girlfriend was cheering and telling me that 'the game was over." I looked at her as if she was insane. Listen, we have not made the playoffs in 15 years. What are we supposed to do? Come here and write about how good everything has been? If everybody posted starry eyed things and blasted each and every critical article (or yes, post) written about us, would this site be interesting? I for one think not. BADOL is correct. This team is stacked with talented players. We just beat a good team with a great quarterback, this without Dareus, and no numbers from Watkins or even Mario! We now have a chance to be good and even make the playoffs. When and if this happens, the mindset here will change.

JohnC Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 ^ This. On Sunday in the late 3rd quarter, my girlfriend was cheering and telling me that 'the game was over." I looked at her as if she was insane. Your girlfirend is astute. Most people who are insane believe others are insane. It's called paranoia. Modern medicine is a marvel. It is a very treatable affliction. This team is now stacked with playmakers on the offensive side of the ball. We "hopefully" have the quarterback to make the connection. If our OL can play at a competent level (worry about that unit) this team will be a serious team. I don't have a tendency to over-rate talent just because they play for the hometown team. But what I am seeing in the early play of TT is making me gush. What a stunning surprise, a very pleasant surprise!! All I was hoping for was competent qb play. After my early glimpses of him taking the snaps I expect more, and I am confident I will get more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 It's called Battered Buffalo Fan Syndrome. Yep, and it's been painfully earned. I recall in 2011 when the team got off to that 5-1 start and people cautioned, "don't get too excited this happened in 2008" and others responded "this team is different!" And while it was different, the results were painfully similar. I'm excited but I'm not getting off the rails excited until a playoff spot is locked down.

thebandit27 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I think folks need to understand that finding room for improvement is not a bad thing; it's actually a very good thing. This is a very good football team, and I haven't seen anyone on this board say anything else. Being very good, and still having room for improvement, proffers quite the forecast for this team's season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob's House Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 What's to be optimistic about? Our "QB" couldn't even pick up 200 yds through the air, our "elite" RB averaged 2.4 ypc, our "generational talent" WR notched a goose egg, and our "dominant" DL couldn't muster a single sack. We still suck. #TomBradyRules!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
