Also note how Fitzpatrick looks sadder and more worn down as time elapses.

He looks like he’s authoring a manifesto by the end of the growth period.

What can we say? The guys hates to lose. I can sympathize with that. I think all of us here would look pretty pale and worn out if we went through the same thing.

Can you imagine how it would have been if he hadn’t shaved it during training camp? His beard probably would have started to cover the number on his jersey.

(Whistle blows)

Official: Delay of game. Offense. Number?… (Switches off his mike). Hey Jim. What the heck is that guy’s number? Move his beard out of the way. I can’t see it from over here. (Switches the mike back on). Delay of game. Offense. The big hairy dude. Five yard penalty. Repeat third down.

It’s legal to pull a guy down by his hair….I wonder if it’s legal to pull someone down by their beard? Time will tell.

You know that is a good point. I hadn’t thought of that. I think it is legal. I think that if it is outside the helmet, that it is considered part of the uniform.

Playoff beard

Wait until we clinch next year before you put away the razor.

He looks like a goober without it, but looks silly with it. Just keep some stubble buddy.

He needs to just keep it at normal length,

the longer it got, the more we sucked.

I hate that I love Buffalo.

My Fitz Beard Theory

I believe that Ryan Fitzpatrick’s talent and magic are directly related to his facial hair. Fitz needs a beard to perform at his optimal level. However, the more wild and unruly Fitz let the beard get, the more wild and unruly Fitz got himself. My suggestion is that Fitz keep the haircut and beard length he had during the Week 3 victory over the Patriots. That polished, controlled, yet gritty look had Fitz operating the Buffalo Bills offense at the height of its abilities. That look embodied the traits we need in our QB.

Grow it until week 5 and then keep it trimmed at that level.

From smirks to sadness

That is going to be the name of an unofficial tell-all of this whole situation in about 15 years. Mark my words.

How one franchise managed to shart away an entire generation’s fancy over them.

Next season if Fitz grows the beard again, you should putting something out here on Rumblings promoting we all grow our beards as well (ladies included :)).

I think it will pretty awesome if everyone start growing beards to show our unify as Bills fans. I will love to see all the photos and of all us wearing our beards…

Be pretty cool huh?
