Big Bills Fan Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 We are a terrible team right now and yet this season hinges on two out of three games. Despite being as bad as we are we could easily have take 2 wins out of the following three games and be in the thick of it: Miami @ Miami: 16-7 lead in the third quarter. A stretch/fumble by Trent for a first down on third and an interception in our own end doomed us. We play with a lead and hold it, it's in the bag. Cleveland: The opposing kicker hits a 56 yarder on a 30 degree night and we miss a 47 yarder, are you kidding me? We won't get in the 3 1st quarter ints. San Fran at home: Lindell misses two field goals (I still can't even talk about the first one), the opposing guy hits a 50 yarder on a fumble at the end of the half. In a terrible game a nine point swing would have been huge. The irony is that the difference between a bad team and one that finds ways to win is about 5 plays in this whole season. It's a scary thought that for as bad as we are, we'd be in it in the AFC West and certainly parts of the NFC. The moral of this story is that Luck Favors the Prepared. We are clearly not prepared to be a good team no matter how badly the team or Bills Nation wants it; you can practically feel the weight of that desire in the way we play, especially with a lead. I look forward to the day when our DESIRE to be a good team is equaled by our ability TO BE a good team. - BBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 good teams win games they should lose, and bad teams lose games where they should win. Winning and losing are both contagious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were actually finding ways to win games when we weren't playing all that well and were behind in the 4th quarter. Boy, did THAT mirage evaporate in a hurry.

BuckeyeBill Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 If Hardy had dropped that ball in the End Zone against Jacksonville, if Lindell had missed that field goal against the Raiders, if Greer hadn't had that Pick-6 against St. Louis... we could be looking at a top 3 draft pick in April.
