Silver lining takes only

[Casey D]

We've been through all this before.  Remember 2023 when the Bills were 6-6 after that crushing loss in Philadelphia.  The problem is that the regular season means little to many fans now.  Win the Division, so what?  When only a SB appearance--at a minimum-- is acceptable, then anything that suggests we won't meet that lofty goal means the team and all its management and players absolutely suck.  Lots of fan bases would give their left nut to have a team like the Bills.  So just let the season ride out, we are 7-4 and have an 87% chance of making the playoffs.  In the playoffs anything can and has happened.

 

It is hard to believe that after a loss like Thursday.  Other teams-- particularly in primetime-- get fired up to play the Bills because they are the Bills.  Think about that.  I mean Houston has a good defense, but they don't fly around like lunatics every game like they did Thursday.  Why?  it's the Bills in primetime.  It  is hard for the Bills to match that intensity when playing-- Houston?  And despite all that, and all the mistakes, the Bills almost won.

 

So sit back and chill.  Forget seeding and all that, and play one game at a time and get to 11-6 and into the tourney.  Let's then see what they do, before deciding to get out the pitchforks.  Does that work?

Served up on a silver platter.
