Italian Bills

Recommended Posts

Tomorrow night we better be ready, very ready !!! 
 

Tomorrow night will be a war and we better be ready for the war !!

 

Tomorrow will face a very hostile environment, very hostile ! 
 

Tomorrow will be another opportunity, a new opportunity, to show everyone that we are the best team, the very best ! 
 

From Josh to the very last guy, they must give it all on the field, nothing left.

 

Tomorrow must be a statement on what this team is made of ! 
 

In the locker room, just before the game start, the song that should play, it should be ….

I bet that they would destroy everybody on the field. 
 

Here what i’m talking about: 

 

 

LET’S GOOOOO BILLLLLSSS !!!!!!!

Here's a breakdown from 1999:

So basically the #1 seeds have gone to the most Super Bowls and won the most Super Bowls.  It's not rare to win a Super Bowl as a #1 seed since 1999.  It's the opposite of rare.

 

Super Bowl Appearances by seed:

#1 - 22

#2 - 10

#3 - 2

#4 - 7

#5 - 2

#6 - 2

 

Super Bowl wins:

#1 - 8

#2 - 5

#3 - 1

#4 - 3

#5 - 2

#6 - 2

Interesting numbers. Yes, in raw numbers the #1 seeds have won the most Super Bowls since 1999 (if your numbers are accurate, which I assume they are).

 

But in terms of percentages, the #1 seeds have the worst record of winning. 

 

#1 - 8 of 22, or 36%

#2 - 5 of 10, or 50%

#3 - 1 of 2, or 50%

#4 - 3 of 7, or 43%

#5 - 2 of 2, or 100%

#6 - 2 of 2, or 100%

We’ll finish the season winning all the games left. 

 

We’ll have a 14-3 record but i’m not sure it’ll be enough to be the n.1 seed. 
 

Mark my words. 

 

Welp, nobody thought the Bills would finish 13-3 in a 17 games season. But you weren't wrong!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

Nice call Italian!  Your optimism is something I don’t see a lot of on this board lately.  I went into the first half thread late in the first half and saw a lot of dark, un optimistic posting.

What about today’s performance lends  itself to this remark.   The defense has holes.  Allen has mental breakdowns.  The running game is hit or miss at best.  Allen is an injury waiting to happen with his bulldozer running.  
 

The Bills will run the table?  Ok, let’s keep this thread around and call your bluff.

Mark my words. Bills have 3 maybe 4 losses still to go this year. 
 

Seriously. Are you watching the same games I’m watching?

 

Josh is a dud for the last 3 weeks 

 

Defense is trash 

 

Frazier is trash

 

McD is terrible

 

Dorsey even worse

 

no on can stay healthy 

 

can’t execute 

 

can’t run

 
Bills are one of the worst teams in the red zone 

 

Von Miller is a ghost

 

need I go on?

Just stop it OP. Just hope Bills get the 7th seed and Allen is healthy enough to play into the postseason. That's our only chance this year.

These are the kind of posts that are ridiculous. 

I mean talk about hedging. Saying they can win out or go 4-4. With that logic can you say they can lose out too?

 

After winning the rest of our regular season games following the Minnesota loss, some posters got crow to eat for calling out the OP!

I mean... not all that unwarranted. This team is underachieving in a lot of areas. But they do find a way I guess. Just not sure that's going to work against the Bengals or chiefs.

Love the optimism, love the fact you put it out there for all to see, and criticize, and the bottom line is, you nailed it my Italian friend.  Kudos to you amico!  

 

Here's to our Bills beating the brakes off the Dolphins Sunday afternoon in Orchard Park, and beginning a nice new four game winning streak!

To be fair, that’s every game day thread the first time something doesn’t go the Bills way haha all these negative posters come out of nowhere and fill up the thread then disappear when we win by multiple scores haha

 

im still baffled by that…I think a bunch of people show up that don’t post here on a regular basis

Wow. Some really horrible, Debbie Downer posts in here that you quoted.

 

Some Bills fans are just not emotionally strong enough to handle the inevitable ups and downs of a season.

You will never see me post in an in game thread.  Does not work for me.  I understand some people NEED to react to every play.  I don’t.  I also don’t read a word of it once the game starts.  Different strokes for different folks.

They didn’t play the game they were most likely to lose. This thread gets an asterisk.

Can you make a similar prognostication for the rest of the season? Please?

Same here. I don't know how people can read and post regularly and still follow the game!

Very smart. Some seem to forget a game is 60 minutes and what you do in the 60th minute is as important to the final score as what you do in the first minute.

I could think to ask some bucks for that. 😄

 

Seriously: i said few times in the past that because the tons of s*** we went through, we are on a mission. 
 

If we can stay healthy, i’m not fearing anyone, many say that our Offense isn’t good enough beside Josh and Diggs, well, you’ll see what Bees and Smoke and Cook and yes, Gabe too will do… 

 

Many say our Defense isn’t that good without Von and Hide… well don’t panic, you’ll see what this D is made of very soon. 
 

And don’t forget: we don’t play all alone.. next one we’ll face Hill (top 3 WR) and Waddle (top 10 ?)… but we are a 13-3 team with all the injuries we had, very bad injuries. 
 

Whatever will happen, i’ll be proud, don’t worry. 
 

But again.. we have everything we need to get there, we are on a mission.

They have a good chance of losing on Thursday. 

I guess I was right. Just had a gut feeling about this one. Probably more like a clock is right twice a day, but my instincts were correct. Now on to the Super Bowl championship! I’m calling it!

On 11/29/2022 at 6:33 AM, newcam2012 said:

It cuts both ways. The Bills lost close games but they also won close ones. They could have easily lost to KC and Detroit. Right?

 

With regards to Allen it all depends on his health. Obviously, he is hurt and a less than healthy Allen makes it extremely difficult for the Bills to win. Add in Hyde and Miller and it becomes even more difficult. No one knows how healthy any of these players will be. Predicting a Bills win out at this point is just crazy and laughable. Blinded homerism for sure. There is nothing to suggest this team wins out. As a realist, I'm hoping the Bills can win the division. Hope KC stumbles. Most of all the Bills get healthy. 

Most of us are diehard fans. Being a die hard fan doesn't give you a pass to say outlandish ridiculous post without valid construction criticism. Sure anything is possible but let's get real here. The Bills have a morsel of a chance to win out. I think most prefer more common sense post than blind homerism. 

 

On 11/29/2022 at 7:50 AM, newcam2012 said:

Oh no doubt it cuts the other way too. Negativity or constructive criticism should always be bolstered by reasonable opinions and facts. Pure trolling or hatred for the Bills should be equally challenged and criticized. 

 

However, things here aren't equal. The negative posts here almost always get undue resistance. For example, look at this thread. It's premise is ridiculous yet most here don't challenge, question, or criticize it. What if I started a thread on how the Bills might lose out or lose most of their games? Another ridiculous thread that would get shredded to pieces and rightly so. See the point? I just wish the board was a little more realistic with a more balanced views or good and bad. I know the more popular view is to praise the Bills and be optimistic. I get it. 

You must not know football if you think this team is going to win out. It is outlandish and unrealistic to think the Bills win out. I'll stand by that statement all day everyday.

That's changing the scenario. I never advocated that either was going to happen. You defended the win out post. So put up or .... up. Nice try though. 

 

On 11/30/2022 at 7:10 AM, newcam2012 said:

Obviously, you don't know how betting works Those conditions certainly change things. I mean you are hedging for sure. Bills will win out if ABC happens or doesn' t happen. That's not how the game works. Unknown variables are in play and when you make outlandish predictions you can disregard or modify the variables. That's exactly what you are doing. Either the Bills win out or they don't. Your modifications are absurd. I mean can I bet a game and say the bet only counts if QB/RB/WR or whoever doesn't get hurt? If it rains or snows too much disregard my bet. That's what you are doing. Nevertheless, the win out claims are so ridiculous I'll listen to your modifications. The Bills aren't winning out. In fact, I'm not sure they win tomorrow. 

Just a potpourri of terrible takes in this thread.  You should read them back to yourself.  Then defend the takes like we know you will 🤣

And after all of those takes- this is your only response to the thread.  Cmon Cam.  Whatcha got?

Nope. Zero credit. You FAILED!

 

You said Bills 14-3. *WRONG!*

You said Bills would win out. *WRONG!* They had a no contest, obviously you should've foreseen that Nostradamus 

You said "not sure it'll be enough for the 1 seed." *WRONG!* Because you're Italian, I translated that to English meaning "They're guaranteed to win the #1 seed."

 

Therefore, I refuse to give you any credit whatsoever, and now think you're a Dolphins fan. 😉

I stand by what I say and said. Those are and were my beliefs. Of course, I was wrong on many as it turned out.

 

Nevertheless, that doesn't deter me from voicing my opinions. I try to back them.up with facts or realistic opinions. I have no regrets on what I said. I've eaten crow many times and gladly will when the Bills win when I think they won't.
