The similarities between cities/teams are simple to understand:
1. Small Market team with a bully in the division they must contend with every year (Steelers and Ravens, to a lesser extent)
2. Fans that live and breathe football
3. Great local joints and food – I loved the few places I visited – Knockback Nats and O’Malleys in the Alley. I was forced to get Gold Star Chili cause Skyline was closed on Sundays for some reason ?
4. The pain of losing for different ways for so long. I’m still angry about the Bengals 2016 Playoff game against the Steelers.
5. Genuinely nice people – seriously – your tailgate was a pleasant surprise. We were welcomed with open arms, and I played the biggest and most entertaining game of flip cup I’ve ever seen.
6. A climate where it can still be cold and depressing in April

I usually go to 1 away game every year but I might have to make an exception and go to 2 next year to see an Allen/Burrow face off.
Anyway, I’m talking too much. Again, I wish you good luck on Sunday. The Rams are not the villain usually found in the other side of these Superbowls, but very few people in LA care about the Rams and their “fans” assault visiting teams’ fans, so the heck with them. Go beat LA.
Thanks. This is cool as the Bills are my 2nd favorite team, always liked your guys helmets and I really liked Jim Kelly, Thurman
Thomas and Bruce Smith back in the day. Was rooting for you guys against the Chiefs of course and thought you would win as
I thought you were the better team. Too bad your Defense didn't show up in the 2nd half like ours did against Mahomes.
I am from Wyoming so I am a big Josh Allen fan and our other rep is here in Logan Wilson our main Linebacker.
Anyways, thanks again and I bet we have some great games coming up between us in the future. Gonna be a blast!
