LOL at the Buffalo Bills


Panthero

Recommended Posts

The Bills have the longest active playoff drought in any major professional sport: they have not qualified to play in the NFL playoffs since 1999 and are the only team that has not appeared in the playoffs so far in the 21st century

That's 17 seasons. Three more than their nearest "competitor".......the Cleveland Browns!!!

The last time they won a playoff game? 1995! Bruh, the Panthers weren't even a year old!

I have a friend that was born and raised in Buffalo and grew up as a huge bills fan. He is old enough to remember those four super bowl loses. I told him I couldn't imagine that and what could possibly be worse?

He said Atlanta blowing a 28-3 lead in the super bowl was possibly worse than what the Bills did. I laughed but he was dead serious. I'm not sure which is worse now.

I can remember those 4 Super bowl loses in a row.  And yes, that would be devastating.

But believe it or not, the Falcons epic Super Bowl collapse last season is not the all-time epic comeback in NFL playoff history.  Following the 1992 season, the Bills were down to the Houston Oilers (now Tennessee Titans) 35-3 just 2 minutes into the 3rd quarter.  However, the Bills came back to win 41-38 in overtime, a record that still stands to this day..

Bit of Panthers related trivia: The quarterback that lead that comeback was the Panthers first ever quarterback, Frank Reich.  What's really interesting is that following this game, Reich had the distinction of simultaneously holding the record for leading the largest comebacks in both college and NFL history, each time in a back-up role.  While at Maryland, he lead them to a win against the Miami Hurricanes after trailing 31-0 in the first half.  That record has since been broken.

    • Why would we not be contenders? As long as Bryce plays like he did when he came back, we absolutely can be contenders...that is...   if the defense plays better... which is why adding someone like Ramsey when we have a QB on a rookie deal and can afford it makes sense IMO. No one thought of the Commanders being contenders last year or the Texans the year before and so on and so forth. Top-end QB play, especially for a guy on a rookie deal, changes everything in terms of timelines. Regardless of what this board thinks, I hope the front office is willing to he aggressive in thks window we currently have with a rookie QB deal  
    • Would absolutely love to have him. I dont think he would require more than a 5th rounder. The biggest thing with his contract is the amount of guaranteed money. As long as they can work out and scenario where the Panthers aren't on the hook for a lot of that, I think it's a no-brainer. The Panthers can come up with $20M at the drop of a hat with restructuring Moton's contract, so there definitely isn't an issue from a money perspective. Jaycee paired with Ramsey along with Mike Jack would give us one of the best CB groups in the league. The one caveat I see is that safety still remains our biggest current weakness. We need a starting caliber S more than CB, simply put. But adding someone like Ramsey would be amazing as long as the compensation made sense. Ramsey could also play for FS snaps also. I also dont understand this nonsense about being seasons away. We have a QB on a rookie deal who was playing at an elite level to end last season. Within reason, now is absolutely the time to make moves like trading for Ramsey.
    • He'd be a huge upgrade for this year, but we're still not going to be contenders with him and I'd rather keep the cap space to roll into next season to spend on a younger player who can be an impact starter for us for the next 3-5 years while we're hoping to contend.
