I have been to 3-4 sites that people were bashing the bills. So I came here. Since this is BILLS ZONE I thought there wouldnt be much bashing. But instead I found more bashers who dont have any explaination of why there bashing and people who say we should get rid of Juron because were 1-2 in this preseason. Has anyone figured out that ITS PRESEASON. So people stop talking **** without having anything to back it up. Also our C and RG is still being substituted in and out on some plays so our OL isnt complete. Also doesnt anyone think Langston Walker had trouble because he kept having his line mate substituted. Each offensive line men has a different technique so when theres a knew player in Walker has to switch his technique which probably threw him off a bit. Peerless Price has 2 great plays and you dont talk any good about him still and Losman only had 181 yards and was 9/21 with 1 td and you guys are upset and saying Losmans history. Edwards wouldnt do much better. If you want a 0-16 record then go ahead put Edwards in. But if you want the best chance of winning then put Losman in. Seriously we can go 14-2 and you guys will be upset that we didnt go 16-0 and want us to fire Juron and Losman.

Re: WHY ARE PEOPLE BASHING THE BILLS ON A BILLS SITE!
Maybe people are bashing because:
-the d-line sucks and can't stop the run. This was something which was knew by many coming into the season and hasn't been addressed.
-the Tampa-2 defense sucks
-the Bills don't know how to draft. {ie. you don't draft safties in the top-10 when your d-line sucks and have ad-tackle fall into your lap, see2006}
-the interior off the o-line sucks again. no run blocking whatsoever.
-it's preseason, but many can see problems which willl likely carryover into the season. {o@d lines still suck}
Thats for starters on why fans are bashing.

How do you say we dont know how to draft. Our number 2 pics both can be rookie of the year. Donte Whitner was a great pic and we also got Kyle Williams who should get better.

Re: WHY ARE PEOPLE BASHING THE BILLS ON A BILLS SITE!
It's easy to second guess OBD from your couch or computer desk.
Everyone who posts here has different opinions on what is right and what is wrong with the Bills. That's what makes this board what it is. If we all agreed, it would be very boring.
Some of us choose to focus on the positive. Others choose to focus on the negative.
i simply enjoy getting up every Sunday, putting on my Wire jersey, drinking a few beers, and watching the Bills play football. Win or lose, it's a rollercoaster, and i for one really enjoy the ride.

Re: WHY ARE PEOPLE BASHING THE BILLS ON A BILLS SITE!
We're ALL Billsfans with different opinions.
Nobody's right or wrong, they're just opinions, and assumtions.
I look at the positive, some fans look at the negative, my wife is like that,
but I still love her!
Nobody's right until the fat lady sings, GO BILLS!

Some people, like me, think hiring him was stupid in the first place. The guy has had only one winning season, his in-game decision making is terrible and he's supposed to be a defensive genius but has never had a guy in the top 10. But even I don't think we should fire him now because it's too disruptive- the smarter thing to do is give him at least one and maybe two more seasons and hope I'm wrong.
So you're complaining about something that no one actually said.
As far as bashing the Bills- you're confused. Dolphins and Patriots fans bash the Bills. We're not doing that- we want the Bills to win and we're criticizing the players and decisions that aren't helping the team win. Being a fan means wanting the team to win, first and foremost. It does NOT mean standing by every asinine decision or every player who puts on our uniform no matter how bad they suck.
I hate on guys like Royal, Price, Reed, and Anderson all the time- I still root for them on Sundays because I want the team to do well, but when they're holding the team back from winning, I'm going to criticize them.
If you can't see the difference between that and bashing the team, don't bother going to message boards.Last edited by shelby; 08-31-2007, 02:25 PM.

Re: WHY ARE PEOPLE BASHING THE BILLS ON A BILLS SITE!
Bashing is a hard term to give to someone. During the offseason all you are going to hear from the reporters is bad things, you are not going to hear "Hey, J.P. Losman donated something to x charity" or "marshawn Lynch helped the kids downtown, etc." you are going to hear "Why is this guy not starting" "who will be the mlb?" etc. I think you get my point. If you came here and there was talks about flowers and sunny day would that make it better?
I feel if you come to a board and there is no discussion between members about bad things and everyone agreed on everything what would you have?
This board is full of Buffalo Die Hard Bills fans in my honest opinion. Thats why I am in here posting and really stirring things up because it brings out the quality of a poster imho. This coming from a steelers fan.
This board is one of the better ones.

Re: WHY ARE PEOPLE BASHING THE BILLS ON A BILLS SITE!
There are a group of people on here that YOU may think are bashing but in all actuality they are just being "REALISTIC".
I am at the point where being a realist has made Bills Football much more fun. I used to be like you, Never wanted to say anything bad, always thought the Bills could win any game they played ... but after 20 years of heartache ... I decided to call a spade, a spade and I am a much happier Bills fan. When they win a tough game on the road that, in my book, they have a low chance of winning it goes beyond my expectations and I come away feeling better about the team.
Just my 2 cents ...Get all the fools on your side and you can be elected to anything.
