Yes it exists because I just said it did.
Figured I'd start by being a fan on this board and flexing my e-muscle after a painful loss.
Now that that's over we can talk more level-headed.
I hated the loss just as much as you all did. We were right there and couldn't close the deal. To me the deal killer was the 4th quarter drive where we went 3 and out instead of eating clock and getting more points. But the truth is we gave this one away with stupid penalties. Many will say "same ole Bills" but this team is different. They have a sound, aggressive style of football that I haven't seen here in a while. They give me the impression that they will be able to play with anyone. That's what we need. Will they give away games with one big stupid play? Maybe. But I just feel more confident about this team than with previous teams.
I expected the Pats to destroy us. I said I wanted a competitive game win or lose and that's what I got.
We have the foundation for a good team
Aggressive defense
Productive offense
Talented young QB who is playing solid
Well coached team that is ready to play and minimizes mental mistakes
Reduce the penalties
Reduce the mistakes further
"there are no moral victories"... Yeah there are. Losing by 2 points to a team that is a perennial powerhouse and should have destroyed us? When we have a rookie everything team? I'll take that. This team looked way better than I thought they would. We have an aggressive defense that plays with their asses on fire, we have an offense that can score, we have special teams that play well, and we have coaches who seem to be getting this team ready to play. Add in that Manuel is doing his job well as a rookie...
We can have a bright future with this team.

- I fully expected this young team with a new HC, OC, DC, staff, and all new schemes to come out and play sloppy at times. They did that. But, they were way better than I expected.
- I expected our rookie QB to throw 2 or more INT's. He didn't
- I didn't expect our backups in the secondary to play so tough.
- I didn't expect our defense to play so well.
- I wondered if we could get lot's of pressure, we got some theres room for more.
- I thought our OL might give up some sacks, they didn't.
- I thought Marrone might get rattled or do something stupid, he had a few things that were questionable but not horrible.
