Nextmanup Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 It sounds familiar, but I'm not sure how much the Bills themselves are bickering. The last bickering led to 4 SBs, so that's not all bad either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it the bickering that led to SBs… or was it the fact that it was taking place between a bunch of future HOFers in their prime… 🤷♂️ 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 It's not the SAME thing - but it's a cousin of the thing. It's essentially the same dynamic. And as someone who was around for "Bickering Bills" - the feeling was the same. A promising team, multiple disappointments...and now this? And then SB after SB after SB. I don't know if that's really the formula. But it definitely feels familiar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 I posted last night in the Diggs thread that if 24/7 Sports and Social Media were a thing in the 90's - this would look like nothing in comparison. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until there are more issues, there is no comparison. If you want to compare the two- then compare them. I already told you what the difference is.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Just recently was reading a newspaper account from the playoff loss in the year of the Bickering Bills. I recall during the regular season Thomas calling out Kelly in that needed better play from the QB position. Didn't recall in the loss Thomas again calling out Kelly, stating on the Harmon drop , it was because Kelly didn't make the throw in time and on the interception to end it,again was Kelly's fault due to hesitation. May all be true, but didn't recall him ripping other than that one time. Amazing they became such good friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) 3 hours ago, MJS said: Why? Because a star player on offense (TT) didn’t say another star on the offense (JK) was the weak link on offense after the accused weak link (Kelly) threw the starting RT (Ballard) under the buss by saying his RT’s suckitude led to an injury he sustained (while in the act of throwing a TD pass, btw). The fact that Thurman saw fit to call Kelly out during his weekly TV show exacerbated the situation by a factor of 10. The Diggs situation can’t hold a candle to that.

The original poster must not be old enough for the real story from the real Bickering Bills between Kelly to Bruuuce, to the Thurmonator. It took Bill Polian sitting evreryone down and putting the accusations to rest. The positive results btw for the person trying to stir up trouble was a galvanization of the team to make a run the following years with 4 SB appearances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Claude Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 I don't think this came up all of sudden due to the Bengals game (or just before) nor do I think it is all Diggs. Things have been clearly less kumbaya with the Bills since the 13 seconds. There were assistant coaches making lateral moves, stories that Daboll and McDermott didn't see eye to eye, rumors about what was said on the flight back from KC etc. Things were hidden during the hot start last season but probably flared up after the team started struggling in November such as mentioned in Wawrow's article.
