Bills Rub Salt in the Wound

Post-Game Quotes from the Bills, Week 5 (this is ugly as hell):

"I mean, who didn't know we were going to run the ball? They've been exposed in the run game the entire season." - Stevie Johnson

"I think we thought we’d be able to outplay them physically." - Ryan Fitzpatrick

"We felt our offensive line could move them off the ball and they took that challenge to heart, and they were able to go out and move them off the ball and get beyond the safety every time." - Fred Jackson

"A couple of [Eagles] have been loose with the ball. Carrying it around, hanging it out, trying to make big plays. All week we’ve been focusing on trying to rip that ball out and trying to cause turnovers and things like that. It paid off." - Nick Barnett

Sucks to hear it

But I can’t argue with any of that. They weren’t bragging about anything, just telling it like it is.

Salt in the wound?

No. More like getting a grim but accurate diagnosis from a really skilled doctor.

God Damn you, Andy Reid.

ya

I don’t think they were gloating. Just stating the sad truth.
We used to say a few years ago, or hell even last year that this team can lose/beat anyone.
Now its more like this team can lose to anyone. Miami, Kansas City, anyone on any given Sunday has a very good chance to beat the shit out of the Eagles. I would be shocked if we win 6 games this year.

Stupid

They’re just being PC after a win.

Hold on

I didn’t mean to say they were gloating. Maybe it should be “unintentionally” rub salt in the wound. They are just speaking the truth – I meant that it’s painful to hear.

Hope that clears it up.

I think that if they came out and said this stuff publicly prior to the game, we still would have played just as poor. It’s not like anything they said isn’t known across the world of pro football anyway.
