For the record....
Yeah, the Bills got their asses handed to them. Cincy outplayed us in every phase of the game. They were clearly the better team today.
There are going to plenty of sourpuss threads and posts, the usual cynics are going to revel in their negativity. If you want to ****post, do it one of the those threads. I’m not going to wallow in the outhouse with an overflowing toilet, the **** cascading down and stinking it up.
I choose to avoid and ignore the ****posting. Have fun wallowing in your own misery. It’s not fun.
Actually, I am not going to wallow in any kind of misery. For a Bills fan of almost 60 years, I’m used to losing the last game of the year.
BFD. It’s just a game and this is just a sport. No lives were lost (at least almost not lost). The sun is going to come up tomorrow (at least here in Vegas....I don’t know about in Buffalo). I still have a loving wife and kids. Life goes on.
With the final disappointment, I STILL am SO PROUD of this team. They had incredible obstacles this season. Key critical injuries that had a strong effect.. Off the field challenges that WERE life and death. So much emotional baggage this team had to endure....looks like it finally caught up with them.
And STILL they brought so much joy and excitement.
A 13-3 regular season....the forth consecutive season with 10 or more wins....only the second time in the Bills history to do so. Winning ten games or more is the exception in Bills history (16 times in 62 years....14 times in the Super Bowl era since 1966....and I am enjoying the successes of this team with great joy.
I look back to the “drought” and, except for a handful of “Super Bowl” years, this team and the complete turnaround we have seen since the ownership change with the fourth starting year in the playoffs....third straight AFCE crown.
The present 4 year consecutive playoff appearances of the Bills is the second longest today. Only KC is longer at 8 seasons.
Believe it or not, there are only THREE teams in the NFL that have been in the playoffs three years or more consecutively.....and only SEVEN teams in the NFL that have been in the playoffs two years or more consecutively.
1. KC - 8
2. Buffalo - 4
3. Tampa Bay - 3
4. Philadelphia, San Fran, Dallas & Cincinatti - 2
Seven other teams are in their first playoff season after not being there last year. And that means that 18 teams have a ZERO streak of playoff seasons.
Every year, 31 teams lose their last game. Every year 24 teams do not even get to the divisional round of the playoffs.
The Buffalo Bills are built well, and have a stellar organization that most other franchises are looked to emulate.
We have a solid core of players. An Elite QB. We draft well and free agents want to come and play in Buffalo.
The Bills are still one of the top 3 teams in the the AFC, and one of the top 5 teams in the NFL. That is not going to change next season.
So, I’m disappointed, like all Bills fans. But, I am also grateful for such a great season of promise. Grateful for a group of players with character and grit.
On to the 3023 season, and starting to ay attention to the upcoming draft. Next year is not only a new season, but a new team.
GO BILLS!!!! You have my thanks and loyalty forever!!!
