I think the difference to me is that at least "Bills" has the weight of like +65yrs of history behind it.
"What it means to be a Bill" benefits from historic context that they can lean into to show exactly what they think that looks like.
"What it means to be a Commander" OTOH is 3 years of...
That hype video had me cringing so hard I thought I might turn inside out or just implode into the void 😆
Seriously, calling out "identity" at the exact moment they're showing a spear...something that's been erased from the team's identity...is either next-level irony, unintentional trolling...
He could be.
But, if he posted that and didn't even think about it in the context of the team's situation with Terry he desperately needs some media training.
To me, it came off as a classic subtweet to 17.

Jeremy Reaves just posted this...
If other players, especially a leader like Reaves, are putting shots across Terry's bow on social media...seems like team opinion in the locker room might be turning against 17.
I guess i feel like i don't have to compartmentalize anything because I also thought it was long past time for "Redskins" to go.
The replacement just happens to suck eggs and stink of Dan.
A fresh start that somehow honored the past would have been ideal to me...but, here we are.
I'm softening on rocking gear with just the 'W' on it, but you still won't catch me wearing anything that says "Commanders"...just a reminder of the bad old days, being lied to, sexual harassment, all Dan's mess. My body is not a billboard for any of that. And, seems like the team realizes this...
This made me laugh...we should be so lucky

Tunsil has LT locked up tight.
My assumption is that Conerly has RT locked up. But, as a matter of team culture they are making him "earn it" by starting with the second team. I don't think he'll have any issues playing better than Wylie and ascending to RT1.
Jusy another empty ultimatum to hijack a headline.
Even if the feds have a hand in the land deal, this is 100% a distraction play rather than a serious position. Funny how these big stances always pop up when other headlines aren't so flattering.
I think we all know how this ends: bold talk...
Thought this was an interesting look at the LBers as we try to set expectations. Two of our guys in the top 12 (Luvu @ 5 and Wagner @ 12) feels really good considering how ass that position was before Quinn came to town...
Are we not counting the yellow/gold along with the black in the similarities?
To me, it's the combo that makes them look like vomit inducing Steelers knock-offs. Black and primarily burgundy as the second color would be much better.
IMO dude almost deserves a spot in the ring of honor (ok, slightly exaggerating) for transforming the franchise...played a huge roll in getting Snyd-dog to 'ef off.
And as to the name...i hate Commanders, but also thought Redskins was way past its time to go. So that I don't hold against him...
My theory with the introduction of the spear...
We all know JD5 lit up jersey sales last year, but we also don't get the full picture on overall merch sales.
My guess is that they might not be as strong as expected given the success of the team. And, maybe that's why we're seeing the return of...
Sounds like you might have relapsed and need a re-up on that BFS cure 😆
I kid...but seriously, always loved your username on ES.
As to Deebo, I feel like he's basically in line for a suped-up version of the role Oz had last season. If he can’t fit into that (fat pun intended), we’ve got a...
Just like everything with Dan's brand...lazy, bland, unimaginative, and something basically nobody wanted.
I'm hoping the Campbell's Soup guy gets something figured out.
