    I'm rooting for Wins

    The Bills have a decade of a culture of losing. With the coaching change we have a fresh start and an opportunity to start a culture of winning. Winning is more than talent it's a mindset. We need some of our young developing players to devolp that attitude. Now!

    Re: I'm rooting for Wins

    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

      Thank God someone is. Your not a fan if you root for your team to lose to get a better draft pick.

        after watching the team the last 2 games, it's starting to look like we've had the talent all along but not the right brains. I'll enjoy the wins.

                The fact is we all know change is coming, so rooting for losses is not about rooting for change. That's coming whether we win or lose, so its just twisted logic.

                  Re: I'm rooting for Wins

                  i know im gonna get bashed for what i'm about to write however........


                  not does losing help us with how low our pick is in round 1 it helps in every other round.


                  the difference between picking 6th or 12th in the 2nd round is huge becuz maybe a 1st round talent drops into round 2. or someone we like is still there late first and its less compensation to move up to get him.

                  thats not saying i want to trade up or anything. but for the right guy anyone would.

                  next the 3rd round is day 2 of the draft a few guys will be on the board for round 3 that draft pundits didnt think would be there. we have a beteer shot with a lower pick.

                  while i agree the culture here must change its not gonna be these coaches or half these players changing it so wins are meaningless.

                  a chance at a franchise qb is not!!!!

                      So you know for a fact that Fewell won't be the HC and that they will then hire a respected GM??? Really?

                            I am rooting for wins because that is the only enjoyable thing to root for. Losing all the time destroys all the fun in it really.

                              You would have to be a mental midget to root for the Bills to lose to get a better drafting position. News flash the draft is a complete crap shoot drafting position means nothing!
