Bills fans were reminded during Monday night’s loss to the Broncos that they have endured some struggles in the playoffs over the years. They are, of course, one of 12 NFL teams that have never won a Super Bowl, though they have been close a number of times—losing four consecutive years in the big game during the early 1990s.
ESPN’s Monday Night Football broadcast used a weird graphic to show how the Bills have gone through some postseason failures the past few seasons, and it set up ESPN analyst Troy Aikman, who beat Buffalo in two Super Bowls, for a chance to take a shot at the franchise.
Instead, he hilariously took the high road:
"I could go a lot of places with that but I'm gonna keep my mouth shut. For some reason, I'm gonna wake up and regret it tomorrow. So I'm not gonna say anything.

Well played, Troy.
