Yesterday's game got me thinking...

[Historian]

Okay, so it's been 12 years without so much as a sniff at the playoffs.

And in those 12 years, the Bills seem to have figured out new ways to lose football games. (almost as if they were trying to)

Take yesterday for example. Up by 21....give up 49 unanswered points.

That's gotta be some sort of record.

So lets share the pain.

What's your greatest loss over the last 12 years?

Mine was the Monday Nighter against Dallas in 2007.

Lost it on the last kick.

Heartbreaking.

That was probably the most heatbreaking, with all those closet Cowboy fans in the stands.

The worst game that just made my decision to cancel my tickets was that 6-3 loss to Cleveland. I realized then that Ralph and his beancounters/yesmen didn't care whether they won or lost. That was the worst game I ever saw.

There are so many of them it's hard to pinpoint any certain one.

Losing to Pittsburgh's JV's with a playoff spot on the line.

This.

I think I would have to agree with this one.

Cowboys game. Knew then to expect the worst effort everytime. Even up 21, I knew they'd lose. I cursed them Outloud at 21-0 to my patriot friends. "why can't they lay a dud and make this easy on everyone"

Re: Yesterday's game got me thinking...

For me it's been a progression. The Music City Forward Lateral started it, the loss to Pittsburgh's scrubs really hurt, the Cowboy debacle almost put me in the loony bin, and yesterday's embarassment is just the latest installment.

But I'm sure there will be many more to come.

That game had to be some sort of record. Dallas turned the ball over 6 times, while the Bills only turned it over once.

How many times in NFL history has a team been +5 in a game and still lost? That is ridiculous.

Re: Yesterday's game got me thinking...

Worst loss ever, without a doubt, SB XXV.
Worst loss in 12 years... The miracle for the Titans. I should note... I don't agree that it was a forward lateral... It was straight down the line... Whatever call was made would have been upheld by replay. Bad luck? Yes! Bad call? NFW!

Re: Yesterday's game got me thinking...

The Cowboys loss in '07 was the worst one for me.

I didn't even get that mad yesterday because I fully expected it. I've literally become immune to being affected by this type of epic choke job because it's become just so common for this team.

Losing isn't enough- they have to lose in the most gut-wrenching fashions possible.

Almost a repeat of this against the Eagles this year. How many turnovers did the Eagles have? And the Bills still try to give the game away.
