Right. These Bills fans and almost all fans ever don’t get how hard it is to “get up” mentally 20 times a year. It’s why there is so much variability in performance. Same way this Chief team can lose to the god ****ing Colts and put together the second half the world saw in the Super Bowl.

Thing is that Super Bowl performance took an absolutely tremendous amount of energy and isn’t reproducible 20 times a year.


Hell, Mahomes basically admitted in an interview they mailed in the 2nd half of the Bengals game in the AFCCG because it’s hard to muster the energy for the Super Bowl and they thought they had it. And when they dug down to get it, it wasn’t there.

It’s why Bills and Bengals fans can’t understand how they can win in the regular season but it’s different here. It’s why the 8-8 Giants can beat the 16-0 Patriots. Same as how we couldn’t square that Alex and Andy put the absolute clown shoes on Brady and Belicheat, Clay writes an obituary and they win the Super Bowl. Fact is they didn’t give a flying **** about us and we took our shot at the big guy on the block. Should they have overlooked us? IDK. Probably not but they won the Bowl.

That seems to be the thing that no one gets (fans, analysts, whatever), it isn’t a mathematical equation. It’s football, and so much of crashing yourself into other humans takes mental and emotional energy and it’s not always quantifiable or predictable.

I think Mahomes and Company get it. But they may not be able to come up with it when it matters. Fact is it’s hard to win the Super Bowl and those guys are TIRED. But hopefully we can avoid mistakes like the AFCCG against the Bengals or come out unfocused like the the Bucs Super Bowl.
