The 'I believe everything will work out' review of the 2011 Bills season

Another year, another Bills losing season.

I gotta say, during the 7-game losing streak, I was about as defeated as a Bills fan as you can get. The losses mounted and the old swan songs of past storylines (Ralph Wilson, 12 years of no playoffs, and hating life as a Bills fan) reared its ugly head. Finally, the season has ended.

Like every year, fans are probably at their breaking point by January. The Bills go home and you watch 12 other teams battle in the playoffs. It's like being at a wedding and you are the 40-year old single girl who is envious of anyone that has someone. However, and this is like clockwise, you will start getting excited around free agency time...and then the draft...and then training camp. You get yourself in a place where you kind of forget about what happened the year before.

You take a look at the roster and try looking for silver linings in order to get to a place where you feel confident that this could be the year the Bills end the 12-year losing streak. It's like being drunk at the bar and your eyeing a girl out and even though they have a few holes, you try and figure out ways to give that person a makeover in order to bring home to mom. Alright, enough of the stupid comparisons. If we can plug in this or that hole, we could do damage.

This post is dedicated to the bright spots for this past season. Your guide for those sleepless nights where you want to kill your wife because she's happy her hometown team is going to the playoffs or some douchey Pats fan at your work thinks they own us.

This will be your form to pull out when other fans talk junk about the Bills 6-10 record. Did you know that we allowed the least amount of sacks? Did you know that the season started going downhill when all the injuries happened? Or that Fred Jackson was a MVP candidate? Hey, that 2011 Draft class played a few downs and actually did something.
