The Season IS NOT OVER

-Coast

People need to calm the F down. This talk about the Buffalo Bills season being over is completely ridiculous. Teams have bad games. The Jets aren't a slouch. It isn't like we showed up and got smoked by the Rams (ie. the Saints). Even super bowl teams have BAD GAMES.

  • Week 2 1990 - Dolphins 30 Bills 7
  • Week 6 1991 - Chiefs 33 Bills 6
  • In 1992, the Bills lost three games 37-10, 20-3 and 27-3 to the Dolphins, Raiders and Oilers respectively
  • In 1993, the Bills lost 23-0 in Pittsburgh. They were out gained in this game 400-157
What do all these teams have in common? They went to the Super Bowl. What else do they have in common? The Bills beat the Dolphins in the playoffs in 1990. The Bills beat the Chiefs in the playoffs in 1991. The Bills beat Miami and Houston in the playoffs in 1992.

Teams have bad games and also teams can avenge bad losses. The Bills certainly can beat the Jets in Jersey in 3 weeks. (Further, see the NY Jets in 2010)

Also, talk about Fitz being terrible is premature, ridiculous and just not warranted. I am not going to waste my time checking Brady, Manning, Kelly, Marino, Elway or any other HOF QB's stats because it is guaranteed they had halves and games like Fitz had Sunday.

The fact about Fitz is that he is on pace for 3,860 yards, 30 touchdowns and 18 interceptions on the season. You know how many times Kelly threw for 3,860? Zero. What about 30 touchdowns? Once. What about 18 interceptions? He threw at least 18 interceptions 4 times. Fitz has a 65.4% completion percentage this season. Kelly had a completion percentage this high...Zero times.

Fans need to relax. The Bills are having a great season. No one expected them to be 5-3. Let's enjoy where they are and be excited for the 2nd half.
