We are saddened to hear of the devastating news about Bills' legend Jim Kelly. We wish him a speedy recovery. On a lighter note, enjoy a little comic relief to get through this agonizing period in the NFL.

Award season is officially underway, marking the end of another football year. And yet it feels like yesterday, we watched the Bills suit up to play the Jets at New Era field. It really is amazing how far we've come in such a short period of time. In September, many thought the Buffalo Bills had already thrown in the towel. At the very same time, Hollywood movie mogul Harvey Weinstein was a dignified member of the arts community. Fast forward several months, a playoff drought has ended and a pariah is born. We all know if Harvey had his hand in football, he would have played a major role within the Bills' organization. Did we mention Weinstein's Alma mater is the University at Buffalo?

On the red carpet, Tyrod arrives looking dapper in a tailored three-piece suit. LeSean McCoy is sporting an edgy look that many couldn't pull off. In his red carpet interview, Sean McDermott is praising the fans, players, and the city of Buffalo. Kyle Williams is chasing his kids around trying not to trip over wires. This is all happening while Ryan Seacrest stands on a box and harasses a stylist.





In this FanPost, we honor players, coaches and fans who continue to entertain us year after year. Presenting the award for best player in a supporting role, please welcome Kevin Spacey and Dustin Hoffman. (awkward applause)









Player in a Supporting Role





Winner - Supporting Role

Did you know Eric Wood was the only Buffalo Bill who played 100% of the snaps this year? Given his recent medical diagnosis, this is an incredible accomplishment. And now, the Bills are trying to juice him out of his signing bonus. Typical! Can you think of a more worthy player to overpay? On top of all the charity work he does, Wood put Bills' fans before his own health. The center put everything on the line to clinch a playoff berth. He knew what ending the drought meant to his community and Bills' fans all over the world. Now it's time to repay him, and no we're not talking about his signing bonus. For his outstanding achievements on and off the field, we're going to whittle number 70 a hand-carved, blood soaked, wooden pickle. Thank you, Eric Wood!

Did you know Nick O'Leary's grandfather is golfing legend Jack Nicklaus? That was a really cool bit of information until we had to hear it every single game.





Nick O'Leary has a lot in common with Happy Gilmore. According to Will Sasso, Happy could drive a golf ball 400 yards! O'Leary can catch off target footballs without gloves, sometimes even wearing a cast. However, Happy Gilmore couldn't putt and Nick O'Leary sometimes forgets that he's not down by contact. Remember, Nick, it's all in the hips.





Above is Happy Gilmore's bitter rival Shooter McGavin, played by actor Christopher McDonald. McDonald is a New York native and long time Buffalo Bills fan.

We're going streaking through the quad and into the gymnasium right onto New Era Field! Come on everybody! Snoop-a-looop!!! That's Tristan Lambright, otherwise known as the Bills' Streaker. Just like in the Movie "Old School," nobody followed Tristan the Tank. Lambright ran onto the field completely naked during the Bills' brutal loss to the New Orleans Saints. That hilarious stunt was definitely the highlight of the game.



On a side note, imagine pledging for a fraternity run by Richie Incognito and Drew Brees. Let's just say tying a rope to your scrotum and the other end to a cinder block will be the least of your worries. By the way, the Godfather might be looking for a new fraternity. Any takers?

One symptom for Crohn's disease is a severe stabbing pain in the abdominal region. Some patients have reported a similar sensation when hanging out with O.J. Simpson.

Crohn's disease is no joke, what is a joke is the NFL's marijuana policy. We understand NFL players are role models, but we're not asking them to endorse weed. Just stop testing players for marijuana, it's that simple. In addition to Crohn's disease, marijuana is an effective treatment for other football related injuries.

Wondering why Adolphus Washington is in this film? No, it's not because Marcell Dareus is no longer on the team. Did anyone happen to see the TMZ video of Washington being pulled over? Number one, always turn down the music when confronting a police officer. Number two, don't try to hide a firearm right before a cop approaches the vehicle. Number three, don't act like Danny McBride. In all seriousness, Adolphus Washington is very lucky to be alive. In this case, the only crime he committed was being a 300 pound guy driving a Slingshot.





Nominee - Comedic Movie

Back in 2010, Buffalo Rumblings held a social media campaign designed to give Kyle Williams a nickname. After receiving a ton of submissions on twitter, the winner was "Meatball." We get it, he's round, slightly reddish on game day and full of deliciousness. Just to be clear, Kyle Williams isn't an out of the bag frozen meatball. Here is the official recipe to make authentic Kyle Williams meatballs:

Prep in 60 mins (unless there is overtime)

Ingredients:

302 lbs of (must be 95%) Angus meat No bread crumbs A lot of milk (especially for all the kids) Rub salt in your wounds (because you like the pain) A small onion (because real men cry) 100% heart

Cooking Instructions:

Put the oven on the hottest setting. Have grandma mix all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Cook the meatballs in the deepest part of the pan, where it is uncomfortable, where it hurts a little bit.

Will there ever be a right time to see Kyle Williams retire? Even with a Super Bowl victory, it's going to be tough watching the heart and soul of our franchise ride off into the sunset. One of the greatest moments as a Bills' fan was seeing Kyle Williams score a touchdown against Miami. What a fitting end zone celebration, considering everything fell perfectly in place for Buffalo to clinch a Wildcard spot. The coolest part was seeing the entire team come together on the sideline. What an awesome moment to be a Bills' fan and fitting tribute to a great player.

By the way, this isn't John Murphy's first appearance on the silver screen. He had a small role as a sports anchor in "Bruce Almighty."

This movie is a hybrid, just like Lorenzo Alexander, one part animation and little dab of drama. Zo probably doubled up on that oil for the Jacksonville game because he played out of his mind. With Eric Wood retiring, Buffalo can't afford to lose another vocal leader. His nickname is the LorAx, LOR in Lorenzo and AX for Alexander.

Golden Raspberry Award Nominee

Did you know IMDB gave the movie STEEL and Kazaam a 2.8 out of 10? Coincidentally, Bills' fans also gave Shaq Lawson's season a 2.8 out of 10. Just like in a Wal-Mart DVD bin, customers get two movies for the price of one. Prior to this year, Lawson had high expectations after Buffalo switched defensive schemes. For a man of Steel, his season was far from magical. In this double feature, Shaq summons a powerful sorcerer named Kazaam. Like Rumpelstiltskin says, all magic comes with a price. Rather than wish for an improvement in his game, Lawson decides to make it rain candy bars and fast food over the city of Buffalo. After eating himself out of a job, the Bills decide to place yet another Clemson standout on the trade block. Perhaps the LA Lakers are willing to take a chance on Shaq?

During the drought, news columnist Vic Carucci struggled to find material to write about. In this dark comedy, the contributing sports editor gets fired and his Bills beat article is replaced by a weekly column about mascot Billy Buffalo. Vic was totally shocked by this news and developed an unhealthy obsession with getting revenge on his new arch nemesis, Billy Buffalo. Vic spends the entire movie plotting his revenge on Billy. At the climax, the two characters are pitted against each other next to the field goal near the south end of New Era Field. Vic pulls a gun on Billy and forces him to unmask him, only to find that Billy Buffalo was none other than Bills Beat writer Jay Skurski. The two share an awkward stare and proceed to lock lips and partake in a french kiss for the ages. After the confusing and anti-climactic ending, the credits role leaving its audience confused and disturbed.

Honorary Award

Winner for Lifetime Achievements and Exceptional Contributions to the Buffalo Bills

With degrees from Coe College and Harvard University, Marv Levy's teacher-like approach to football earned him the nickname, professor. And like Eddie Murphy, Levy has taken on multiple roles throughout the Bills' organization. Coach Levy is well known for leading the Bills to four straight AFC Championships and being inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In 2006, at the age of 80, Marv was hired as General Manager and Vice President of Football Operations. Marv's most remembered move as GM was drafting Kyle Williams in the 5th round. This is part of the reason Bills' fans are not ready to see Kyle retire. Number 95 has endured plenty of adversity throughout his playing career but Kyle Williams is the last remaining link to the greatest coach in Bills' history.

We'd like to pay homage to some of the greatest Bills' movies in the history of the organization.





In 1991 Dan Marino, Don Shula and the rest of the Miami Dolphins invade Buffalo and take over the entire city. Buffalonian's are held hostage and must call on 7 extraordinary men to save the day. Kelly is an expert marksman that will need to get help from his talented friends to save the day. The underdog gang destroy the retreating Dolphin threat. After the first war is won, the Magnificent 7 get word of a gang of invading pirates that are ready to wage war on the city of Buffalo. The 7 men destroy the threat and head off to Tampa Bay in pursuit of a silver reward.

This movie poster can be redeemed for 6 regular season wins. That offense should be in prison because every down truly felt like "The Longest Yard." Did a heartbreaking Cleveland game just pop into your memory?

Anyone else think J.P. Losman looks like Adam Sandler in a football helmet? With a name like Losman, it's no surprise the quarterback was one of Buffalo's biggest draft blunders. However, a fair argument can be made that J.P. would be more successful if he were in the NFL today. Buffalo's coaching staff tried to make Losman into something he wasn't, a pocket passer. Often touted as a poor man's Michael Vick, a modern NFL coordinator would have utilized Losman's athleticism. Sadly, everyone in this movie poster will be remembered as losers for a franchise on autopilot.

"What the hell is Brett Favre doing here?" There's something about Brett Favre that couldn't keep him off this FanPost. The unbreakable David Dunn (played by actor Bruce Willis) was impervious to all things except water. The indestructible Brett Favre started 297 consecutive games until he was split in half trying to cross a moat. In this M. Night Shyamalan film, Favre discovers the true nature of his superhuman abilities. After retracing his steps, Farve uncovers a diabolical plot constructed by Mr. Glass (Sammy Watkins) to foil his legacy. Mr. Glass devises a plan to catfish a Jet's cheerleader and destroy Farve's marriage and reputation. Glass underestimates Farve and the power of Wrangler, five star premium denim. In the end, Mr. Glass escapes from the Hall of Famer and figures out a way to steal millions of dollars from the Los Angles Rams.

Leslie Frazier is well known in football circles for his calm, monotone demeanor. After a tough loss, he's ready to go back and review the tape. The NFL is such a nerve-wracking, emotional environment and yet nothing seems to rattle Frazier. Perhaps Leslie is bottling everything up and taking out his frustrations in a different manner. Still not convinced? Start by saying Frazier five times while facing a mirror, alas Leslie will appear with a bloody hook. He will murder the summoner while screaming "Jerel Worthy! What the **** were you doing on that play!"

Josh McDaniel's most recent shenanigans almost cost the Bills their Candyman. Fortunately for Buffalo, Frank Reich was able to step in and save the day. Most would agree that Frazier got a lot out of his players this past season. It would have been extremely difficult to replace Leslie at that particular stage in the off-season. Starting over with both coordinators would not have been an ideal situation for 2nd year head coach, Sean McDermott. Frazier...Fraaazier...Fraaaazier...Fraaaazier...Fraaaaaazier...it was worth a shot...

The leading lady in this film is a femme fatale who goes by the name Karma. The hit on Tre' White in week thirteen's loss to the New England Patriots was heinous.

Maybe one day Leonard will open a restaurant in downtown Buffalo.

This movie, staring Nathan Peterman, is more of a mystery and less of a drama. Before the Chargers game, some people thought Peterman was definitely the answer to Buffalo's QB woes. Now Nate is lucky to be labeled a maybe at the quarterback position. Here is a fun fact... "Definitely, Maybe" received a 7.2 out of 10 on IMDB. Here is a not so fun fact... 7.2 is roughly the amount of times Peterman has turned the ball over in his brief NFL career.

This was an easy one. There are so many correlations between between Bills' current GM Brandon Beane and the former GM of the Oakland Athletics. Name aside, Brandon seems to have similar philosophy of finding affordable players to fill his rosters. Let's take a look at some of his moves:

-Trade Sammy Watkins and Ronald Darby for draft picks and two "high character" guys -Sign Trae Elston and trade Cardale Jones and Reggie Ragland -Cut Trae Elston and trade Marcel Dareus -Sign Trae Elston and trade a 3rd Round pick for Kelvin Benjamin

The amount of backend roster churning that went on this past season was enough to make one dizzy. We're all still miffed about losing Watkins. But hey, we broke the drought and opened up some cap space to fill holes. Brandon, just find us a QB and you will be sketched in the annals of Buffalo folklore.

After being stranded at the airport, Shareece Wright made headlines when he used an Uber driver to give him a ride from Chicago to Buffalo. The driver, 26 year-old Hadi Abdollahian, thought Wright wanted to go to Buffalo Wild Wings. Wright said, "We're not going to Buffalo Wild Wings, fuel up because we're going to Duff's." Wright and Abdollahian would go on to spend the next 8 hours confined to a Nissan Altima. What do you think they did during that time? Cue the music "But I would walk five hundred miles. And I would walk five hundred more!" Hey Hadi, you got any more of that Tantrum soda left?

Sean McDermott is in the initial stages of building his "program." He is trusting his "process" and building his program with people that will do the right thing both on and off the field. In this classic sports drama, the Bills go all in and trade Tyrod Taylor, (Omar Epps). in addition to Tyrod and other draft picks, the Bills receive the Browns' 1st overall 2018 draft pick.

Other than being a d-bag, do you know the difference between a Philly fan and Bills' fan? Bills' fans would rather light themselves on fire before lighting their city on fire. From sex in the parking lot to chugging a beer off somebody's backside, one never knows what they will encounter during a tailgating party. Kudos to #BillsMafia for getting Bill Cowher to jump through a table right before the Jacksonville game.

What are the odds of the Red Rifle completing a touchdown pass on fourth and twelve? Other than Marvin Lewis's head coaching job on the line, the Cincinnati Bengals really had nothing at stake. The team was already mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. That didn't matter to Tyler Boyd, who made a spectacular catch with 45 seconds remaining in the game. As a result, the Ravens were eliminated and the Bills earned the final Wildcard spot. Bills' fans showed their appreciation by making donations in increments of 17 dollars to Andy Dalton's charity. The number 17 representing each year the Bills missed the playoffs. What an amazing story and gesture by fans! Taking something negative such as the drought and turning it into a positive. The Bills' organization also showed their gratitude by sending the Bengals almost 1500 Duff's wings.

What a way to kickoff the New Year! What a great moment seeing a crowd of Bills' fans gather outside the airport to celebrate Buffalo's playoff berth. Not to mention it was New Year's Eve/Day and the temperature outside was well below freezing. No words can describe the fans that showed up to airport and supported the team after the Wildcard loss to Jacksonville. This fan base, community, team, and organization continue to be the gold standard in sports.
