Bills took their foot off their opponents throat because we were ahead 5 TD’s, they literally could of generated 55-60 points if necessary but unlike other teams they didn’t need to score 40+ to survive. Credit where credit is due, Sean gave the Titans a break. Bill B probably would of sent Brady out to stomp them some more, which is the exact reason the the POS patriots deserve the stomping coming. Plan on us not stopping.

Re: Decorum

Allem, Diggs, Miller and many more were done late in the 3rd quarter.

It's like a college game where Georgia empties the bench against Incarnate Word in a cupcake blowout.

Re: Decorum

Nice and all but won't take that image of Bud Adams giving Bills fans the finger away.




Bills had no reason to offer THIS team any fig leaf.

It wasn't about the Titans.

It's about the rest of this season and the playoffs. Trying to embarrass a team is bad karma and leaving key starters out there to do it is asking for trouble.

How would you feel if We lost Josh or Diggs for the season in garbage time of a game that is well decided because they are looking to make some petty point?

Nobody cares about Bud Adams, Bill Belichick or anyone else. Get the W, get out with your stars as healthy as possible. The goal is the SB.

Re: Decorum

I thoroughly enjoyed every second. I knew Josh was done as soon as they went up 34-7 in the 3rd. No reason to risk any injury to him, Diggs, or anyone else. Heck, Hyde got hurt and he probably shouldn't have been out there anymore.

I don't disagree. The Bills just did the right thing. It's not really about letting their foot off the pedal, at that point in the game it was out of the realm of the Titans catching up so you protect your key players. It also gives valuable real game reps to your back-ups and young players. But my point is there should be no favors for this team. Bills have established somewhat of a history with this team over the years, so this victory felt a bit like a win over the Patriots.

Honestly, I don't feel sorry when the Bills run up the score. We've all seen them be on the other end of many debacles in which the other team is throwing downfield while up by 30 in the 4th.

The Bills did do the right thing, in more than one way. Keeping Josh healthy should be number 1 priority.

Re: Decorum

With all the blown leads in the leagus this week, yes, run up the score every time.

Re: Decorum

I don't think McD would have pulled the starters that early if Vrabel hadn't already given up and put Willis in first. He probably would have after a series in the fourth, but not the 3rd quarter.

Yep. Had the exact same thought. Especially watching the Jets comeback to win. And the Dolphins. Wouldn't have felt bad had they left the starters in for this alone. But glad it worked out the way it did.

Re: Decorum

I used to get mad at Belicheck for running the score up on us but now I have a different mindset. If we don't want to get embarrassed, then stop them.

Same goes when we're on top. No need to show another team mercy. If they can't stop us, that's their problem. That being said, I'm glad we protected our stars rather than running up the score to settle old grudges. Injuries are already mounting, especially on D.

Belichick was an idiot for risking his players to run up scores. I don't care how much of a "genius" he is.

There's no coaches poll or whatever in the NFL. you gain nothing by running up scores.

Once the W is assured, you protect your best players for next week. period.

Why Bill did this to other teams is beyond me but he has a lot of rings. I’m not sure if banging up your team more when victory is in hand is ever a good idea, Vrabel was also a Patriot so I’d figure he’d understand if we did.

Meh. Bud's been dead for 9 years. He's not noticing much these days.
