billybob71 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 i keep hearing the media (Michael Irvin and others) say the Bills played so good against Patriots by taking out years of frustration and anger, which seems ridiculous to me. Were any of these players or coaches around during New England and Bradys dominant years? How about they scored 7 times because they are a really good team, executing at a high level. Yeah we as fans carry that frustration and exorcised demons but the players I don't think felt all that threatened by them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, these Bills players are Buffalo in every sense. They know what the fans been through and how we all feel. When McDermott first got here many people mocked him because he came here to change the culture. Many people mocked and didn't believe anything about culture. Culture makes a difference. It shows on this team every day and every week. But yes, they are a really good team executing at a high level.

NewEra Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Brady vs the rams kicking off in an hour…..and if your watching any sport channel, you wouldn’t have a clue that that game is today. Josh vs Patty Cakes 24/7 coverage 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think feeling threatened and being aware of the history are two separate things. McBeane, Josh, & Co. understand Buffalo and are definitely aware of the history so I would bet the importance to the fan base fueled them at least in part, but I don’t get the sense they are threatened. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritBill Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Only an hour until Rams v Bucs and also England are playing West Indies in a T20 International. Those will help pass the time. At least next week (if there is one) it’s a 8pm (3pm for you guys) so not as long a wait. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always good when they play in the Windies as it’s perfect time to watch on TV. No bad luck with The Ashes. They were just horrendous on all 3 factors of the game. 4-0 was flattering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Allen ended the regular season game with “who the eff did they think I was”. These guys have a strong pulse on the Pats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 7 hours ago, SydneyBillsFan said: Interesting stat was brought up on the Rich Eisen show: There have been 6 previous occasions where a team has played both a Belichick coached team and an Andy Reid coached team in the playoffs in the same year. Not once did those teams manage wins against both coaches. Records are meant to be broken. Without looking it up, guarantee that most of them beat Reid and lost to Belichick. The tough one’s out of the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they come out flat and lay an egg against Chiefs, Michael Irvin's point will be made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're going to get a rude awakening in 4 hours. 18 minutes ago, BritBill said: Only an hour until Rams v Bucs and also England are playing West Indies in a T20 International.
