    Question The Most Ridiculous Historic Spin on a Bills Player by Bills Management

    Every year there is some stupid angle spun by Bills Management about a player.

    Which one do you look back at and piss your pants laughing?

    For me, it has to be after we drafted JP Losman and we were told by Bills Management what a "gym rat" he was.

    LOL!!!!!!!!

    It gets me chuckling every time.

    What is your favourite?

    What about Fitzpatrick's "gunslinger mentality"? Guy has an Ivy League education and still tries to force the ball through 3 defenders because he thinks he can, and the FO wants us to believe that's a good thing.

    not that it's great or even good, but if I had a choice of ****ty to mediocre QB's, I prefer a QB with a set of testicles to a check down, take no chances kind of guy. at least i'll be entertained while losing.....
    I came.
    I saw.

    Bill Walsh pimping Trent Edwards as a steal of the draft.

    Re: The Most Ridiculous Historic Spin on a Bills Player by Bills Management


    HOW BOUT 1 MEANINGLESS GAME OVER A 10-5 RUN???!!!!!!!


    Flutie topped his performance from the previous season, going 10-5 and clinching a playoff spot. Phillips sat Flutie in a meaningless final game to get him healthy for the playoffs. After Johnson had his best game as a Bill, Wilson again called telling Phillips to start Johnson over Flutie, despite the diminutive quarterback’s record. Phillips backed the decision, he says.“It wasn’t a bad idea, considering the Titans were unbeaten at home and won all their games there by big scores,” Phillips writes. “We had just played one of our best games of the whole season, and Rob played tremendously. Plus, if we weren’t playing well, Flutie could come in and give us a spark.”
    This makes zero sense, but I guess if you are trying to defend a bad decision 17 years later, what else are you going to say?
    “I wasn’t worried about the players on the team who were in Doug’s corner being angry about the switch,” continued Phillips. “If you’re coming off a big win like we were, I don’t think that happens. If it’s after a loss, I think it’s different. Once you lose and there’s a change, then all hell can break loose.”

    How many boxes of cereal would Bills Fans buy for a QB with a 10-6 record?

    DBhlsWcXcAEt2rU.jpg

    2.5 MILLION

    In the end, Ballou’s company sold 2.5 million boxes of Flutie Flakes, launching a new business model. “I should have retired after that one,” Ballou said. “I was younger back then. I thought all of them were going to be like that.”

    If Adrian Wilson didn't scramble his brain I still think Trent would've worked out.

    We let Fat Pat go because he was too old. The one strength this team had in the first few years of this drought was that the Defensive Line was pretty damn good. Too old Fat Pat would go on and enjoy many years of excellent play in Minnesota.

    Marshawn Lynch was like tackling a bowling ball rolling downhill with spikes on it. Wait...
