Share an Unpopular Bills-Related Opinion


Recommended Posts

The Music City Miracle wasn't particularly close to being an illegal forwards pass, and no, I don't care that Adam Schefter was there and disagrees.

 

And I'm much happier with McDermott as a coach than I am with Beane as a GM (though I'm still mostly fine with Beane).

It was close, but I agree that it wasn't forward.

It was down right creepy when we had a tight end on the team (Sheldon Jackson) that painted his toe nails purple - and he seemed to be excessively proud of it too. To my memory, most people back then thought that it was cute or that Jackson was a free spirit who was just comfortable being "himself". I tell you - it was cringe worthy. Lets avoid any new players with this personal habit.

The Jets have won 6 of their last 8 while the Bills have lost 4 of their last 5.

That's not an opinion, mate

 

Yet it evoked a chorus of angry and scoffing replies.

Doug Flutie was not an arrogant, self-centered jerk - he was actually a great guy, and the ideal teammate and a positive presence in the locker room too. Yes - I am kidding about this -- lol.   

I hate the Bills Red Color Splash Uniforms. Most people that I have talked to seem to love those things. They are obnoxious and hurt my eyes. The Bills belong in the predominately Blue & White uniforms (the bit of red accent is ok). It just doesn't look like the Bills out there when they are wearing those loud red pajamas.

For any of you old timers out there (like me) -- Robert James was a better cornerback than all of them. Too bad his career was derailed by injury far too quickly. You young kids out there can google the early 1970's Bills to figure out who he was.  

        IMO, that includes Deon.

1) Flutie was one of the most overrated QBs of al time and was toxic in the lockeroom.

 

2) Steve Tasker is NOT as terrible announcer as he is mae out to be.

 

3) WGR reporting on the Bills is NOT the end of the world.

 

4) Ralph Wilson did NOT order Wade to start Rob Johnson.

 

5) The Misuc City Miracle was in fact not a forward pass

 

6) The Bills choked their first Supoer Bowl and were wildly outcoached.

Dawson Knox will continue to be a liability in the passing game. He'll make 1 or 2 plays this upcoming season and this board will go gaga over him.

 

If you haven't learned to catch the football reliably by the time you reach the NFL, chances are it isn't going to happen.

The Patriots of the last 20 years are the greatest professional sports team of the salary cap era in any sport, and due to the small size of NFL divisions, as well as the similarity of scheduling between divisional teams which has existed since realignment, the Bills aren't the dumpster fire of an organization that they've been portrayed as for the last 2 decades, but merely have suffered the consequences of conceding 2 games a year before the season starts.

 

I thought this was just a fact, not an opinion.

And his twin brother Rob would make a great Strength and Conditioning Coach for the Bills - imagine what a great example of taking proper care of your body he would be for all the incoming new players!

Given the state of the economy in Upstate New York - I cannot support the idea of massive public taxpayer funding for the construction of a new stadium for the Bills. Instead - Extensively remodel New Era Field to keep our expenses down - while still insuring the future of the franchise. Yes - I do know that extensive stadium remodeling will also be quite expensive ... but, a joint public/private stadium upgrade project, done in conjunction with the NFL (to insure their buy-in) could serve the needs of the team, the public, and the NFL - while not putting undue additional strain on local taxpayers.

Bills gameday experience is garbage. Way too many people treat it like a fraternity party. This only caters to a small demographic of fans.

 

I would change this to the tailgate experience is very limited and if the Bills ever were to expand it to have more options like on campus restaurants and parties they'd be stunned at how many more fans and families especially would be willing to show and not tailgate

I don't think "keeping the Bills in Buffalo," makes up for how crappy of an owner Ralph Wilson was.

 

As an owner Ralph was the definition of average, as a leader in the NFL ownership group he was a visionary. It sucks it wasn't the opposite

-Fred Jackson was a slightly above average running back and would lower the standard for the wall of fame if he was put up. He was more the product of fans blue collar mindset and being a bright spot on not great teams then anything else

-Going to the airport for the Bills has went from a cool one time experience to over blown and embarrassing showing how low of standards our fans have. We lost a playoff game and fans went. Teams that win SBs fanbases have higher expectations.

-Bills fandom is about to hit its saturation point nationally and we are going to go from the fanbase everyone loves to annoying and drawn out

-If the renovate the stadium and do not build a new one the Bills have 15 years before relocation talks become real if a new stadium is not considered. The NFL has become so money hungry and could care less about the fans that with the Pegula's aging and the leagues oversea's priority Toronto could become a bigger threat if we do not have a new palace. Atlanta has built two stadiums better then the New Era in 30 years, owners notice this.

My unpopular opinion is that Doug Flutie was exciting and a way better alternative to Rob Johnson, and he should have started that playoff game. I think Doug was one of the better QB's in franchise history (although, that isn't saying much). Any "dividing the locker room" crap that is complained about here is way overblown and inconsequential and people's penchant for assassinating his character is unwarranted.


My top 5 Bills QB Ranking:
1) Jim Kelly

2) Jack Kemp

3) Joe Ferguseon

4) Doug Flutie

5) Tyrod Taylor

 

Rob Johnson ranks 10th, behind Trent Edwards (Of QB's who have started at least 16 games for the Bills).

My other sometimes unpopular opinion is that Drew Bledsoe was a good QB for the Bills. He gets bashed a lot sometimes. Although I wasn't a huge fan of Tyrod Taylor because he had such a low ceiling and was so frustrating to watch as he refused to throw the football, he still cracks my top 5 for QB rankings in Bills history and I can't deny that he had a decent run in a Bills uniform.

Tyrod Taylor would've been more successful his last two seasons if Rex didn't fire Greg Roman. After Roman left the offense the rest of 2016 was never the same and I think McD would've kept Roman.
