Ring Envy: What Bills fans said - 9/8/13

The regular season is back and so is the Ring Envy series! We take a look at what Bills fans had to say about the game.

Needless to say, there was a lot of disappointment. Fans in Buffalo were teased with that lead in the fourth, but ultimately Stevie Johnson and their head coach gave the game away. Oh, and some guys named Tom Brady and Danny Amendola played a part too.

Overall, Bills fans blamed everything going wrong on the refs, but had plenty of disparaging remarks about their own team. They were awfully high on their defense, and rightly so. Anyway, enjoy the below!


Top Three:

I honestly believe this team will never change unless it relocates.

I wonder if we are the only team's fans who know with a 1 point lead in the 4th that we are going to lose.

The heartbreak never ends

Best Enjoyed with Hindsight:

I am literally shaking right now. If we win this game, I may have some manly tears

this is what a winning team does !!!!!!! I've got goosebumps !!!

Ladies and Gents It's time to think big.

I am going to remember where I was sitting when I watched NFL superstar EJ Manuel take the field for his first time and show the veterans that there's a new sheriff in town

Guys this may end up being the happiest day of my life.... *turns to kids playing* HEY KIDS KEEP IT DOWN, jeez don't you know Buffalo beating new England!

Anyone still alive? Are we dreaming?

Guys, I think the Ralph is going to become the new Superdome, where opposing teams will be scared to play in front of this crazy crowd!

I know we are doing well, but I can't help but feel like we are going to F up some how....or that Tom Brady is going to go into No-nonsense mode and screw us up the ***. Or both

Full Slate:

Alas, the curtain rises on a new era! 15 years from now, may we look back on this day with fond memories of where we were on September 8, 2013 after at least one Super Bowl win!

now that was a marronic challenge.

Danny "wes welker" Amendola, already hate him.

Ya see what a little bit of pressure does to Brady............he folds like a cheap suit.

It begins! Let's go EJ!
On a side note, when was the last time NE didn't score a TD on us with an opening drive?

and..........here we go.
Cue the circus music.

welp.. there's the bills we all know.

**** it **** it **** it **** it

Theres the team i know and love..........i feel like a battered spouse.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Even though it looked like a td they don't even review it...you know if it were the Bills they would review it I know its not a difference maker but its why I dislike the Pats they get the red carpet treatment and ALL the close calls.

hate playing the patriots week 1

Welcome back Bills fans. Why don't we all pretend that the season starts next week

Get Spiller out the game, dudes a bum, and we want to save money to pay him but not Byrd, what a joke!!!!!!!

I honestly believe this team will never change unless it relocates.

is this the first time you've seen us play the pats? we can and will be the only team getting penalised

get used to Shane Veeren. A better improved version of Kevin Faulk

Oh god just caught myself saying "nice punt." Don't make me grab my Moorman jersey...

I want to know what it's like to see your favorite NFL team in a playoff game. I want to feel that excitement the week leading up to my favorite NFL team playing in a playoff game. I want to feel the almost unbearable anticipation in the week leading up to watching my favorite NFL team play in a playoff game. I was 15 years old the last time my favorite NFL team played in a playoff game. I started believing in miracles at that age, because I watched my favorite NFL team play in a playoff game.

We've beaten New England once since 2003. LOL!

i thought we got rid of Gailey?

Anything inside my 30 I'm letting it go.

Love how the commentators describe pretending to intercept a ball as "showmanship". Patriots are good at "showmanship"

Finally a break! That's a fumble and TD!

That was a freebie.

I've never seen so many defensive offsides since the last Bills game I watched

Tack on 15..finally a penalty against those cheaters

Is it time to turn the game off yet? Offense has made so many mistakes I can't even take it anymore

Hold onto the **** ball!

The rule is you flag the team that isn't the patriots

Well Amendola is hurt... didnt see THAT coming

Good I hope Amendola is done for the year

I love it when Brady runs the ball cause I often want to remind myself how I'd look if I had the ball in an NFL game

How is a guy THAT open, when we don't blitz?!?!?!?!?

Very impressed with the D. Time of Possession pats 18:57 Bills 9:03. Turnovers deep in our own territory and we are still only down by 3 (soon to be more). And the D scored our touchdown.

Hahaha accidental INT! Great job Rogers!

Not sure why but that TD made me tear up a bit.

Wow Brady is only 13/25, that is great for our D

Brady looks somewhat human.... If we cut down the penalties, this can be good!

This is a classic Buffalo beating New England game.
Turnovers...freaky bounces....making most of turnovers.
Get ready for a win today.

Fitzpatrick could NEVER make a play like that. He would have been hit for a 5 yard loss.

The second coming of Jim Kelly!!!

I am literally shaking right now. If we win this game, I may have some manly tears

this is what a winning team does !!!!!!! I've got goosebumps !!!

Ladies and Gents It's time to think big.

I'm already crying!!!

We're beating the Pats... so pretty well.
And if EJ Manuel looks as good in his rookie season as Fitz did in his 7th, that's pretty good.

Please don't let this be another heart ripper where somebody fumbled a kick off with 1:00 remaining.

Tom Brady I hate your stupid face

I am going to remember where I was sitting when I watched NFL superstar EJ Manuel take the field for his first time and show the veterans that there's a new sheriff in town

Take that Tom you ****ing *****

Watching this game counts as my exercise for the week, my heart is beating like a mother

look at him he gonna cry :'( WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WAHHHHHH BRADY

folks, we might have us a DEFENSE!!!
and a QB!!

When did the Bills last have a goal line stand???

Guys this may end up being the happiest day of my life.... *turns to kids playing* HEY KIDS KEEP IT DOWN, jeez don't you know Buffalo beating new England!

Anyone still alive? Are we dreaming?

I am so ****ing impressed! What a fantastic Game! Imagine if we had all our players healthy? **** you Byrd you gone.

Guys, I think the Ralph is going to become the new Superdome, where opposing teams will be scared to play in front of this crazy crowd!

Perfect punt! And for once I can say that without feeling ironic.

The culture is changing right in front of our eyes!!!

I know we are doing well, but I can't help but feel like we are going to F up some how....or that Tom Brady is going to go into No-nonsense mode and screw us up the ***. Or both

Well looks like Brady is awake.

Vereen making our defense look like a college team

Same Bills, never can put the game away

No team is this undisciplined penalty wise. Refs determing outcome in favor of Pats. What a joke.

****ing Patriots Rules. Welker isn't even on their team anymore and he still got calls

Good teams execute in crunch time.

There's the Bills you know and love. Easy catch to covert 1st down.....drop

Who the hell does no huddle in the fourth quarter while leading??????????????

I wonder if we are the only team's fans who know with a 1 point lead in the 4th that we are going to lose.

We find ways to lose The fans are used to seeing it every different way possible. Let's see Marrone pull out a win

See Amendola doesn't worry about running like Stevie. He catches and goes down and gets the important first down. And that is why we will lose this game probably.

**** this. Can't stop them on 3rd down. Same Bills, always will be, never can close.

Now Tom Brady is going to do what Tom Brady does.

Dierdorff creamed his pants after that catch

LOL! This is such a bad rerun.

Ok he's going to be asked about this fast paced **** at the post game presser. This is not good.

Nevermind. The Bills want Brady to beat them

why?
why keep giving brady time on the clock?
come on marrone!!

Amedola is much better than I thought he was. That dude catches everything

I gotta say fellas. We are going to lose this game cuz of our coach. :-( You can't run the no huddle with a rookie with the ball in the 4th up 1. Even if they get us the ball back and we down two you are really gonna put a comeback on your QB when you didn't have to?

Great now the pats run out the clock and kick a field goal. *** you kill the uptempo when you have the lead and 5 mins

Some fans are just beaten down. We still lead. Rooting for a stop!

Sign of a bad coach sticky with your philosophy and not adapting

being a bills fan is never easy...

seriously do they ever drop passes? Its like playing against the terminator

how is it so hard to guard 2 guys

One man beat us all day #80 5 foot 10. WOW

We didnt lose this game becuase of a rookie Coach, we lost becuase of an oblivious one. Burnign the clock in 4th qtr is common knowledge!!!!!!!!!!! Unreal

Terribills!!!!!!

The heartbreak never ends

Sick of moral wins...

I guess we can hope Brady retires someday. Or Belichick has a stroke
