Do You Think the Old Bills Players Reacted Like Fans ?

I just was wondering something about the Bills HOFers and other Bills players and coaches from the past I would have loved to be a fly on the wall or had a camera set up and watched their reaction through out the game last night I can see every 1 of them jumping around as fans of this team just like all of us were .

 

I hope that they can bring Kyle Williams along to 1 of these games if it is allowed he deserves to be a part of this he gave so much to this team helping with his veteran leadership and coming back to help coach Oliver i think it would be awesome to have him on the sideline you know how fired up he would be .

 

Oh and just a side note i wonder what Star L is thinking  & feeling right about now 😕

 

All the HOF guys know the feeling of these kind of big games because they been there done that but still would have loved to have a camera set up to see their reaction when Hughes sacked Jackson, when Taron got the pick 6 i bet they were gong nuts just like all of us !!

 

I bet Marv's wife had to tell him to keep it down and be careful not to break a hip 😂 Kidding but if they could have made watching them possible i bet they were going crazy as fans and not just retired Bills players ! This team is special .

 

I thought when the most accurate kicker in the NFL missed the first kick let alone the second 1 Could this be a omen 🤔 ?? 

 

I just wondered if any of you thought about any of this today ?? GO BILLS !!!

Dude you are so bad but funny as Heck LMAO 😆 

I did actually look at the Twitter feeds of a few ex Bills earlier, one of which was Manuel, just to see if any of them were talking about the game last night. Sadly EJ hasn't posted since December. Maybe he forgot his password or something!

I would venture a one Jim Kelly was LOSING his mind as was Mr. Smith, Andre and Thurman.  Tally was proally wearing his spiderman outfit losing it too!!!  Tasker was just smoking his cigar and thinking of how cilly it was.  Even if NONE of that happened in real life it happened in my mind so I am good with that!  It is a cluttered space up there!

 

GO BILLS!!!!!!

Tasker seems to get excited in the press box. FredEx has been shown with the other remote fans cheering. I bet a lot of others do to!

The fire Tasker had on the broadcast over the refs during fumble/no fumble call against the Colts was amazing.

He is a Raider for life now ;) 

I think they still live and die by the Bills and seeing the team heading back to the top must be a good feeling for the alumni :)

I've often wondered how ex players react to a game ... I mean REALLY react and not put on a show for us fans (especially if the player had a long and illustrious career like a Reed or Kelly et al). I would think that since they've played the sport at high levels their entire life from peewee through high school, college and the pros they would have a sense of "been there done that" and wouldn't get as amped up as us average fans who only get to vicariously taste glory through their exploits.

 

I'm sure if they had spent all of their career (or a major part of it) with a single team they would watch with interest, and even get a bit of pride with a hard fought win against a team rival, or a good playoff run, or Super bowl win, but I just have a hard time envisioning Kelly jumping around his living room hooting and hollering over a good play in the second quarter of the second game of the season against the Jags (not that a sophisticated fan such as myself would ever conduct himself in such a manner).

 

I would assume to a certain percentage of players, the game was just a business and once they left it they have little or no interest to follow it at any level, another group maybe follows the game to keep up with players and friends they've played with but once they leave stop watching, another group just love the game and watch but more on an analytical level than at a "crazed fan level".

In some article recently, didn't Thurman mention the group chat the 90s guys have, that goes nuts during this team's games, and he also said Bruce Smith keeps calling him during games without much to say but very excited. One of the cool things about the current Bills is how the 90s team seems to love and root for them... I think they're on the magical ride with the rest of us!
