After an excellent season a year ago ended in heartbreak, the Bills are back for more. This time, the hype is absolutely real, ConorOrr writes
To think, the Bills were close to garnering our sympathy toward the end of a long offseason. A near unanimous Super Bowl pick, an MVP front-runner at quarterback, a betting favorite so painfully obvious in nearly every matchup. A team that was slated, in the movie we’ve crafted in our heads, to avenge a premature playoff exit and finally deliver a trophy to a perpetually teased fanbase that still, miraculously, believes in good things.
Well, after they demolished the Rams on opening night, 31–10, we’re pleased to report that the Bills seem just fine becoming the team the world thought they would be. As it turns out,. Despite having one of the most valuable arms in football, he’s still going to break contain, stick his paw out wide and maul a wobbling defender cursed with the task of bringing him down in the open field.
And did you notice the first drive of the game, where the Bills went 76 yards over nine plays, unloading months worth of exotic looks and motions? Running an unbalanced line that buriedin a rip tide of offensive linemen tugging him away from a bootlegging Allen, who got to loft a floater to Gabe Davis for one of the easier touchdowns he’ll see this year? The new offensive coordinator can dial those up, too.
To those of you out there who made the most obvious Super Bowl pick in recent memory, let out a deep sigh of relief. The Bills turned the ball over four times and whooped the defending Super Bowl champions.Playing as the favorite, especially in football, is often a psychological death sentence.
