Classy act by Buffalo fans

After Lamar got hurt, "the Bills Mafia wanted to do something for the Ravens’ quarterback. As they have done many times in the past, the fan base went the donation route. One fan on Reddit found that Jackson’s favorite charity was Blessings in a Backpack. He posted his donation and it has since taken off with many other fans sending money to the cause."

Great fans. They deserve a Superbowl and I hope they do it.

I agree, that is a terrific fan base.

I’ll be rooting for Buffalo the rest of the way. Josh Allen has a legit case for MVP this year. He’s the full package.

I really like the Bills, their players and fans just wish we coulda beat them. This is beyond classy.

Could you imagine as a fan going to the SB 4 straight years and losing everytime

I'll be rooting for them from the AFC but the Saints are my NFC team so I'll be rooting for a SB for Brees before he retires

as I recall
Bills fans donated to some Cincinnatti charity after they knocked us out of the playoffs 3-4 years ago

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/03/s...s-charity.html

But Dalton’s improbable last-minute touchdown pass against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday cleared the path for Buffalo’s first playoff appearance since the 1999 season, and grateful Bills fans responded by channeling their excitement into charity. Dalton said that by Wednesday evening, 10,000 people had donated almost $250,000 to his foundation since the game, enough to cover most of the charity’s goals for all of 2018.

Many of the Bills fans donated $17 as a tribute to breaking their 17-year postseason drought.

meh. why not have some fun with it.

It was brutal, I was in my early 20's at the time. Bills fans are laughed at worldwide for it. Oh well, that's sports I guess.

I would argue making four Super Bowls in a row is a more impressive accomplishment than making it to one Super Bowl, winning it and then never making another Super Bowl appearance.

Realistically, I know you'd rather have one Super Bowl appearance with a victory, but making four straight appearances is extremely difficult and likely not possible in the salary cap era.

Even classier move about a year ago. Jerry Coleman was trolling the Bills Mafia, and pretty rudely at that. Being a true Twitter tough-guy, he would do the insult-you-then-block-you move.

Well, the Bills Mafia got wind of the fact that Jerry's Mom was suffering from Alzheimer's. (She has since passed.) So they did the classy thing:
