In 2016 we beat them in Foxboro but only because Brady was still under suspension Oh yes I forgot about that 2016 game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying not to be a Debbie downer but it’s like we get those great moments every couple of years but they seem to fade out rather fast.

Foreigner Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 why don't you post after it happens, if it does. why now, what is the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Without having read a single post in this thread, I would say it would rank with the upset of the Packers a few years ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bing Bong Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 (edited) It would be the upset of the century. Also low-key annoyed Kirk Cousins seems to be working out for them. I was convinced they should have kept Keenum and not fix what's not broken. Them and the Saints are monsters in the NFC.

Like breaking the drought last year I still regret taking sustained success/playoffs for granted, where every Sunday I just expected the Bills to come out and dominate, and it would be more of a surprise if they lost—the 17 years before last taught me appreciation if nothing else though. We deserve to hit the lotto with Allen, I’d say we’re due 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uticaclub Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 This team might lose to the Golden Gophers, let alone the Vikings. If we win it mean the difference between the 1st pick and the 4th 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QCity Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Honestly, it would be #1. The Pats and GB upsets were at home at least. I don't recall the point spreads for those game but I doubt they were worse than -16.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have any votes for games during that stretch where the Bills pulled out an even more unlikely "W" and surprised the world? beating the Cheese at the Ralph in 2014. any win over the Patsies** 2006 home opener vs the Seahawks who had been to NF C Chapionship the year before and SB 2 years before 2013 vs defending SB champ Raisins with EJ the man under 2017 vs defending NFC champs Falcons 2004 Putting a major hurt on the playoff bound Seahawks in their own house. 2015 Knocking the 10-5 Jets out of the playoffs 3 hours ago, Another Fan said: In 2016 we beat them in Foxboro but only because Brady was still under suspension We would have won anyway.

whatdrought Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Random head scratchers happen more often in September. 2 games isn’t a lot of data to “know” what these two teams are. It would be a surprise, but not shocking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I'm not playing the game of the too young to remember anything before this century. In 1984 the 0-11 Bills hosted the Dallas Cowboys who were 7-4. I don't know the spread, but the Bills shocked everyone by beating Dallas 14-3.

BigDingus Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Not as up there as a winless Bills win on MNF for the first time in 13 years against the visiting undefeated Dallas Cowboys... Oh wait, we choked away a lead gifted to us by a 6 turnover game from Tony Romo & lost in humiliating fashion in the last seconds of the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local sports radio down here in the Atl are usually pretty tame towards the Falcons, esp. compared to media in the northern markets, but that week they unloaded to my delight, as no one expected that egg from the defending NFC champs.

Jauronimo Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 11 hours ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: I would think, September 2011 Week 3 when the Bills with Ryan Fitzpatrick under center beat the Patriots***. The Patriots*** were 14-2 the previous year and unexpectedly lost in the Division round, and they had a bone in their teeth (and went on to the Superbowl that year, where the Giants beat them). The Bills had been 4-12 the previous year and were widely expected to be "more of the same". They were leading us nicely, 24-17 in the 3rd quarter. We won 34-31. Mwa-ha-ha Brady and Welker were sweeeeeet to watch in the post-game pressers. I''m not 100%, but I think that may have been the last time we beat them, too. I believe we beat them in week 17 one year when the Pats sat Brady at the half. Marrone's 9-7 year in 2014. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the main points of this thread is when have we ever stared down worse odds coming into a game than this week? So it's more of identifying a correlation to games in our history than it is trying to predict an actual outcome. I for one am curious where this would rank in our history. If we can't talk about what interests us for every aspect of these games before and after, then what is the point of having a discussion board? 3 hours ago, BigDingus said: Not as up there as a winless Bills win on MNF for the first time in 13 years against the visiting undefeated Dallas Cowboys...
