Any fellow Buffalo Bills fans as amped as I am?

I haven’t been able to sit still all day. I’m drinking a Labatt Blue and just finished prepping my wings.



I think my wife is *slightly* nervous I am going to set up a folding table in the back yard, set it ablaze, and dive through it. While that activity is definitely not my speed, I am very excited for playoff football.

Viva Los Bills.

Not a Texans fan per se, but watching from Houston.

He scares me sometimes, but I sure wouldn’t want to try to tackle that kid when he’s on the move. Nice play-calling on the first drive.

Best of luck to your Bills


I’m more a fan of NFL level football, so I’m gonna watch the Patriots later

I live in Buffalo but I’m not a big football fan. With that said the buzz around Buffalo with the Bill making the playoffs is electric.

I know, it’s exciting. I was home last weekend and standing at Duff’s waiting for a to-go order and people were talking about it. I love when good things happen for Buffalo as a rule!

I’m a Texans fan but love the Bills Mafia fans. They bought all of the folding tables in Houston.

That was a big time game from both teams.

Agreed, very entertaining! And the Billsiest end to a Bills season in some time.

Congrats on the W! Quite a win. Our fans definitely travel well and are a good time.

Up 16-0 on the road in the playoffs, good teams put other teams away. The Bills aren’t *quite* in that category yet, but headed in a solid direction. I’m good with this, the lesson will serve us well down the road.

The Patriots are done....end of their dynasty.

Who's their QB next year? The owner is facing a felony charge. Many distractions to deal with. It may be a while before we see them in the playoffs again.

I’m in Buffalo and people are tight. That’s about the only way to describe it. Fumbles, poor blocking, questionable calls. Such is football. I’ll be rooting for the titans from here on out but would be shocked if anyone can beat b more.

Bittersweet seeing the pats lose too. I sort of feel we missed our chance to play/beat them in a meaningful game and it’s an odd emotion lol

That blocking penalty was weak..... wasn’t it? I have no rooting interest, just curious.

Ok I admit I’m a homer, but I couldn’t agree more about that blocking penalty. I saw it as it happened and thought “we’re good here, no blindside”. Apparently the officials saw it differently.
However, the Bills have can’t blame the officials for that loss. There’s no excuse for blowing a 16 point lead in the 2nd half.
I live in Rochester NY, only about 60 miles from Buffalo and home to the Bills training camp. Like Buffalo, our city was electric with excitement this year.
We will be back next year and take another run at it. The Bills are on an upswing.

Here we go again!

Same feeling. I’m very excited to see my beloved hometown team play a big game this afternoon.

My only frustration is not being able to be home at the stadium with my old man for this one, thanks to the pandemic, but I’m grateful I’ll get to share the experience with him via video app. That’ll work.

I have immense respect for a talented Colts team and for Frank Reich, who is a Buffalo legend. My Bills have grown into a pretty complete football team, however, and I’m cautiously optimistic.

Go, you Buffalo Bills! 🦬

My love of the chicken of your city’s varietal has me rooting for your team :)

The only nice thing about when your team doesn’t make the playoffs is that you can watch and enjoy other games with just pure enjoyment of the sport. Looking for a good few weekends of football to start 2021:)

25 years I think it’s been since we’ve won a playoff game

Yes we in the near north love the Bills and I’ll be watching. I always prepared fir the worst and hoping for the best.

Oh, and please ... no need to bring our Leafs into this by comparison

Bills fan from Germany since the early 1990s when I was watching them on American Forces Network. Lived in Westchester for a few years in the late 1990s and worked for New York-based bank during the 2000s which has helped as well.

Flying friends of mine in Iowa and Florida keep shaking their heads why I like the Bills of all teams... Only those living in New York understand...
