Over the last six seasons, the Pats have lost just 19 games, losing less than three games in three of those seasons for an average of just about three losses per year. So, while the poster was trying to be humorous, he also had a foundation in fact.
HINT: there's a "good sport" way to talk trash to your opponents and a "bad sport" way. Your comment falls into the latter category.
For example, saying that the Bills have an owner who fails adequately to market his own team and is looking for a back door out of Buffalo is legitimate trash talk. Saying that they have morphed into a pathetic franchise that is now looking to the biggest trouble maker in the league to rescue it is bad sportsmanship; but, I do kind of like it.
"Get over yourselves?" Give me a break.
