pocoboy Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) I was listening to a "popular" radio show's interview with Eric Wood on the way to work today. I got about 5 minutes in and I said to myself, "Why TF am I doing this to myself???" I put on "The Nightfly" and grooved out. I need to put this team away for awhile, maybe weeks. Maybe draft time. Maybe free agent signings will help. Maybe I would feel a little better about this if it wasn't the same humdrum BS from our coaches no matter what. Come on McDermott, I want to see you in emotional pain over this. I want to be convinced you're hurting as much as we are. And I'm not. I'm not sure you don't think you made every right call, and it's just the football gods have it in for us. Or maybe there's a better way, but you're way too sold on yourself to ever admit it. There, I wound myself up again. Try to escape, and the Black Hole of the Buffalo Bills history sucks you right back in...

PetermansRedemption Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I haven’t watched NFL network or the local news. Going to give it about a week before I do that to myself. I was watching CNBC yesterday for market news and Jim Cramer was re-hashing the Bills/Chiefs. I was like “really, I can’t even escape it here?” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I decided to suck it up and get it over with and it turns out it was not as bad as I expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I'm in the anger phase now. I think I'll be here for a while. Saw the stat on ESPN this morning about Josh Allen being only one of 5 QB's to ever have 9+ TD, 0 Int in the playoffs. The other 4 all got to the SB, and 3 won it. I'm angry. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Yup.. it hasn't subsided for me. Last night, just turned on the news and both shows randomly started discussing Chiefs/Bills. Can't escape it.. seems like everyone in America is still buzzing about something we just want to go away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeskillitMoorman Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Haha I'm still in Kansas City, it's worse here. I actually still had a good time though, but this one will always hurt. I don't think the path will ever line up quite like that again with this lineup of young QB's in the AFC now, but hopefully we can win it one of these years with a tougher road.

BuffaloBillyG Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I'm already over the loss. Time to focus on next year and seeing what crazy and unreal things Josh Allen does. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udubalum07 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Still too raw for me. This one hurt bad. Don't know if I can watch the kc game this week. A little torn though Being a Wyoming guy, I want to see Logan Wilson, but it's going to be hard watching the chiefs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnycage46 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Yesterday was a little bit of a bummer, but today I'm all good. I'm in the acceptance phase. Mahomes is a freak. Allen is a freak. Their freak had the ball last. It happens. I'm on to the offseason and looking forward to what Allen does next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear u mate But don't allow the chiefs to steal your enjoyment for watching a game. Unless it turns into a blowout ....I draw the line there. Because in my heart I think the Bills would have been as successful as the I suspect the chiefs will be. And if by some miracle Cincinnati makes a game of it and wins OH HAPPY DAY...haha m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Yeah - this one is tough. MUCH tougher than last year, where I didn't have the same expectations. I forgot about this. The drought was awful, but losing in the playoffs is a special kind of pain, especially when your team really has a shot. But only one team wins every year. Today is a little better than yesterday. And I'm consoling myself w/ the idea that we have Josh Effing Allen for a long time into the future, and will be in the mix the whole time we have him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ferguson Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 There's a lot of 'what if' or 'coulda, woulda, shoulda' running through my mind these past two days. I usually have these thoughts after only a few hours of a soul crushing defeat. But this one still lingers in my mind. That tells you how effed up this game is. Allen led his team to a victory TWO TIMES!. It took hard, determined work of major stupidity by McD and Frazier to screw it up and these two morons succeeded.

NewEra Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Zero sports or social media for me. I’ve been painting my house and will continue until the entire house has a fresh coat. Friends told me it was therapeutic. I’d disagree and raise them carpal tunnel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Yeah I've moved away from the NFL now, working, watching some Ozark, reading my books, moving onto to other sports.

Billsfan1972 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 While I'm still here, and yes listened to 1-2 podcasts (love Bill Simmons and a lot on The Ringer), I have plenty of Netflix, Crave (Canada's bundling HBO, Showtime & others) & taped shows to keep me preoccupied. I however will forever blame fundamental simple coaching for screwing up the final 13 seconds (OT, couldn't care less😜). Funny MCM, it was not so much about the kick (the fact they could have bleeded the clock to 0 to kick it) or the terrible kick or the forward lateral. I still am just as incensed that Rob Johnson played that game, was terrible and that Ralph Wilson made the call for him to play (I have absolved Wade Phillips of making that decision).
