So Buffalo Fans Start to get IT?

After Buffalo's humiliating loss to San Fran this week, it seems that the overly optimistic media have finally got the hint.

THE YEAR WAS NOT THE YEAR!

My goodness, year in and year out, it's always "our year", as if the lack of a proper offensive line, a strong quarterback, key offensive weapons and a defense not riddled with impact player injuries have ever changed the team appearance on paper. Despite on person from my college paper proclaiming that Edwards, Lynch and Evans were the Kelly, Thomas and Reed 2.0 version, this team was in no shape or form better.

While Lynch is a strong running back, Evans and Edwards are no way comparable to the statistical but also cultural impact Kelly and Reed placed on the Buffalo fan base. Sure, replica jerseys are easier to acquire, but those guys cannot carry Kelly's or Reed's jockey straps.

This team was 5-1 for a reason... they played no one. Hell, they trailed against a horrendous St. Louis team. The Rams couldn't beat a cold, but for some reason, the almighty Buffalo Bills needed the second half to claim the lead. It wasn't even the offense who pitched in there. The defense spurred the momentum as the offense chugged along like a battered V6 engine on a worn Chrysler sedan, barely keeping afloat.

Hopefully fans will get the message. As we have mentioned here before, Sal's 401K is unbiased, but Bills fans are so annoying and led by blind faith that they fail to realize how horrible their team really is. This is a wake up call to them.
