A mixture of turnovers and bad calls by officials in Foxboro gave the Bills their 12th straight loss to the New England Patriots in Massachusetts. Talk about incompetence and futility! You can see why it’s hard to be a Bills fan. Tonight, the Bills play the Dolphins in a rare Thursday night game. The game is a sell-out so those people who enjoy watching surgical shows on cable can watch this likely fiasco. Many Bills fans are already studying potential Draft Picks.
I turned the Lions on for the first time last Sunday and watched MN score within seconds. I turned it off for good. I am not going to be Bill Ford’s sucker ever again.
I’m sure you Lions fans can relate to the futility of the Bills the past decade, Patti. Most Bills fans are ready to go into hibernation.
George, who do you think the Bills should draft?
A quarterback, Drongo. Ryan Fitzpatrick, the current Bills QB, is–at best–a backup. Look what is possible if you have a QB like Peyton behind the center!
Poor Bills. Even when they play well enough to win they lose.
Good luck tonight.
The Bills teams of the last decade have always found a way to lose, Jeff. Until we get an owner who’s interested in winning, we won’t win.
Ralph doesn’t care about winning anymore, just about his next breath!
At 94, owner of the Bills, Ralph Wilson, has other things to think about, Jeff.
I like Klein and Smith, but Barkley seems to be the most NFL-ready. Too bad the Chiefs are probably going to get the first pick.
The NFL is a quarterback league, Drongo. Any team without a top-flight QB has no shot at the Playoffs…unless they have Tim Tebow!
Seahawks are doing pretty well with a first year pro QB, as are the Colts. Not so the Redskins… so even with a big name it’s still a guessing game.
That’s what makes the NFL so unpredictable, Rick. You need to have all the pieces in place to compete. But you really need a QB to contend for the Playoffs.
I’ll be turning the game on in a few minutes! Go Bills!
The Bills stopped playing offense in the Second Half, Rick. That’s why they’re a mediocre team.
Good win, George.
Any win is a good win, Drongo. But the Bills sure tried to give the game back to Miami!
I’ll admit I turned it off late in the 3rd quarter and picked up a book. Glad they won. Miami looked awful.
If the Bills could play the whole 60 minutes, Rick, they might be competitive.
This reminds me of the NY Giants of the mid-sixties. Every Monday our gym coach would sit us in the bleachers, without us having to change into gym clothes, and spend the whole class bitching about the dreadful play of the Giants the day before. “No blocking!” he’d cry. I loved it; anything to get out of gym.
I, too, loathed gym class, Bob. Our gym teachers also coached the football and basketball teams so they were busy doing stats and drawing up plays. They couldn’t be bothered actually teaching so our gym classes turned into torture dodge-ball games. The bullies in my class would try their best to maim the rest of us while the gym teachers ignored everything.
