Teddy KGB Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I became numb when they passed on qb in draft again Watkins for the corpse of Ej Gaines and Dareus for a 6th surely didn't help. Taylor...Peterman....Webb = doomed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billzgobowlin Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 47 minutes ago, Maybe Someday said: Not numb because this is kind of what I expected from the start of the season…minus the blowouts to the Jets and Chargers. This is and always has been a rebuild. After the 5-2 start, too many people lost sight of the fact that we’re just not a very talented team and let their hopes get way too high. I'm just happy we got some of the unexpected early wins that we did, it was fun. But at this point, I’d say we’d be lucky to win 2 more games the rest of the way. Under the circumstances, I’ll be OK with that as long as when the season is over, we don’t have any questions on the roster. I want to see almost everyone get some decent playing time so we know who is worth keeping for next year and who needs to go. Call for certain coach’s heads all you want, changing them likely won’t make a difference. We don’t have the talent to run anyone’s system up to par. Changing coaches/systems every year will only set things back. System continuity is important. Last year it helped the offense because someone knew it wasn't the right offense. If only Rex did it on defense he would have still had a job and maybe a playoff victory. I like the Peterman move because it showed he is trying to improve every part of the players. The same needs to be done with the coaches till they figure out this downward spiral. I might be wrong but putting the same players or coaches out there is insanity to expect different results.

PABillsfan23 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Pretty much don’t really care if they win or lose. I expect to lose every week and if they win it’s a pleasant surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) Numb? Hard to say. I didn't expect Nate to be a Savior so I'm not really upset I'm certainly not giddy with pleasure that Nate had 5 INT's like a number of people posting I have been ticked off that Tentative Taylor can't be a passing QB.

I see a lot of posters angry and disappointed, but I am just numb. Not saying that it's a good thing, it's just after so many years of this type of stuff I am just used to it. I shouldn't be, but it's better than getting your hopes up. Look at the lack of talent we have on both sides of the ball. I just had low expectations for the season. Our best player on defense is a rookie and our best player on offense is a running back. Generally that doesn't work out great. Good question. I feel numb to it. Or maybe a better word for me is apathetic. I was at the game and while I watched it unfold it didn't bother all that much. I kind of laughed afterward and just accepted that is par for the course. So, I think the big thing now is do I even pay attention to the hope of squeezing into the playoffs. I know many will continue to post stuff about how we still have a chance and so forth, but I think "why engage myself in this?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan_34 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Expect to lose, pleasantly surprised when we win has been my motto for the past 6-7 years. It doesnt bother me one bit anymore- truthfully it is pretty comical the dysfunction of the Bills and Sabres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweats Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I just cant seem to be numb to 3 ass whopping in a row..........each one worse than the last. We get rid of anyone on this roster with marginal talent and then wonder why were getting spanked every week? Shameful.......just shameful.

We are tied with the Ravens for a wild card spot. We can still salvage this thing. Going back to #5 and giving Shady more touches would be a good start. I think its done man. Technically its not of course, but it for sure has that feel. I will still watch every game and go for the Bills of course, but I would be surprised if they win 2 more games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasovon Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I made a fair amount of cash last night, as soon as the Peterman news came down i picked up the Chargers D in fantasy and put money on the chargers to win by more than 14. We are in a blessed position as Bills fans we literally know the outcome of these games with how well we know the team. I want them to win, but i know that they won't.

I sincerely doubt this team will every be competitive again. Some franchises will never win, and sadly this is one of them. They have always sucked from the earliest days. If you remove the Polian era, this team is probably the worst franchise in all of sports all time. The only other team that could be worse are the Washington Generals. Numb you ask? I have been numb to this team since 2005. 3-0, 4-0, 5-1, 5-2 starts? those just make the colossal seasonal failures that much worse to endure, I'd rather they just come out of the gate sucking balls so there's no chance of false hope.

NewEra Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 As I was sitting in the stadium watching it all unfold, I was watching all the Bills fans around be screaming and swearing and I could see their blood pressure skyrocketing. I was in full blown laughter. Sucks that I paid a couple Gs to attend the game, but I still had a blast. Maybe it’s because just that....I’m numb. Shout out to Kelly the Dog and Heitz. Was a pleasure to meet you guys. Class acts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaCrispy Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 This is why I stopped going to games this year- for this very reason...saw it coming a mile away...and I’m not going again until the team shows some positive signs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaviorPeterman Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I was before the season started, in fact as I mentioned before I was prepared to walk away from this team for good. But after we drafted NP combined with watching him in preseason and the fast start I truly believed this franchise was heading in the right direction. This latest collapse though is very painful, makes me truly feel empty as a Bills fan and sadly the worst is yet to come especially as we purge the roster and truly enter a full blown rebuild that this team won't be able to fool the fanbase with.

I truly believe this franchise is going to hit 20+ years with no playoffs especially if we blow next years draft and either reach for a QB that's not worth it and/or swing and miss on key players where we have gaping holes. Either way it's hard to have any faith whatsoever in McD and Beane given the current state of this franchise and they probably get 3 full years at minimum, maybe more because the Pegulas are in over their heads.
