SwagJag Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 2 hours ago, John in Jax said: Hi there. Bills fan here who moved to town in 1995, the first year of the Jags. Of course, by living here, I couldn't help following the Jags as my "2nd team." I'm LOL at your statement above which I bolded. The ONLY reason that there is going to be so many Bills fans at this game is because of the loads of "loyal" local fans who are selling their tiks because they value money more than they value supporting the Jags. IOW, for them, Greed is #1. You do realize that, right? Of course I expect some Bills fans to be there. Just nowhere near the numbers you guys are throwing out. Every Jags fan I know is going to the game. Appreciate the passion and the loyalty, but reality needs to factor in somewhere too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transplantbillsfan Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 (edited) God I wish I could go to this game, but it's a little difficult to do that flight from Honolulu. Regardless, despite the fact that this game will be on TV, I'm going to the bar to watch this game with the bills fans that I've watched and suffered with for years now. Hopefully, we're celebrating a win at the end of the day! 31 minutes ago, Royale with Cheese said: I know of about 300 Bills fans myself just through Facebook groups that have stated they are going.

FearLess Price Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I wonder how many would have voted Bills if Mccoy was healthy. With a healthy Mccoy this one is a toss up. We dont have the better team but our team got heart, and MOMENTUM. That alone can get us the W as long as we dont beat ourselves. If we can stop their run, we have a good chance to win with bortles spotting us a few interceptjons to poyer and hyde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That your fans travel well and will have a presence in the stadium still means nothing to what the actual players on the field are doing. From what I gather, some of you feel your bravado and superior cheering skills will give the Bills the edge to overcome the fact that your team ranks in the bottom third on offense and defense and is facing a team in the top 6 in both categories. Sure.. any given Sunday and all that, but the odds are clearly stacked against a Bills victory everywhere except this thread. Just ask Vegas. Could it happen? Sure. But the brimming confidence some are showing is not what one would expect from a team that is clearly flawed and whose best offensive weapon will be less than 100%, if he plays at all, behind a bottom tier OL.

The jags finished a SINGLE game better than buffalo while having the EASIEST schedule in the nfl in one of the easiest, if not the easiest, division in the nfl. Let’s not act like this is a12 win team that’s on a roll. They backed into the playoffs while bortles started to be the bortles we’ve all come to know over his career. Sorry if we think that’s a team that’s fairly beatable. And honestly if McCoy was 100% this spread would probably be only 3 or 4 Pts. The jags are favored and rightly so. But nobody should be surprised if buffalo comes out with the W Edited January 4, 2018 by Stank_Nasty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are beatable, but if the Jags backed into the playoffs than how did the Bills get there? Jacksonville is by far the more talented team. It is going to take a lot to beat them, IMO. Bills have a shot, but there's a reason just about everyone outside of Buffalo thinks Jacksonville wins. The bills finished the season 4-2 and handled their business the last week. The jags finished 3-3 and lost their last 2. How exactly are you saying the bills backed in? They got help but they most certainly didn’t back in. Jags are favored and should be. You can’t deny the fact they finished a SINGLE GAME better with the easiest record in the whole freaking league. Let’s not act like they should be some overwhelming favorite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stats and numbers. Which is why I referenced strength of schedule and there one more win on the season. Or we can talk about bortles doing his thing the last 2 weeks and now having to face the top int safety duo in the nfl. YES PLEASE.... The jags were still playing for a bye when they got man handled by the niners. And obviously wanted last week as it seems like they freakin hate the titans And the dalton play wouldn’t mean jack squat if it happened a month ago. People wouldn’t be talking about it like they are. Bottom line is OVER THE WHOLE SEASON. The bills did what they needed to in order to get in. The ravens didn’t. Should I thank whomever beat the ravens back in September? Or maybe pin the whole season on big bens drive to beat them 4 weeks ago? I just said the jags should be favored but I’m sorry if I’m not quaking in my boots over a team that came out of the afc south at 10-6. Not happening.
