Just curious and maybe someone more in tune with nfl contracts and restructures/extensions can answer. back in March, when the Bills restructured Diggs contract, converting salary to bonuses, do the Bills have the right to just restructure in any way chose to make it work? Or is that something Diggs had to approve? reason for my thought on this, is if Diggs possibly was disgruntled since the Bengals game, and was maybe expecting or hoping to be traded, and now with the restructure it essentially eliminates any possibility that he would be traded due cap/dead cap. I thought this deserved its own thread instead of getting completely lost in the other Diggs threads.

Sabres games are a mess because the arena isn’t butted up against the 190. Again, you can spit from the Perry street projects to the 190. Huge difference.

I 100% believe this. In the last 10 years Pegula and other investors have built up downtown preparing for this. Then the surveys and public outcry got out and he panicked and decided to save his own money instead of bucking up extra for a downtown stadium. Probably thought with the Angry mob of fans all butthurt they couldn’t tailgate anymore would boycott games. I won’t comment on the design. Overall I’m pretty pleased with it but with it was at least 1 of 2 things, downtown, and with a roof of some sort. This. People forget that the City of Buffalo once had over 500,000 people in the 60s. The infrastructure is built and set up for it just fine. People don’t want to put a reasonable thought into it or can’t comprehend it. Sure there would have been some infrastructure upgrades needed, but it’s not like these things don’t happen yearly anyway. If the stadium was built on the Perry Project site, you could have had exits/entrance ramps direct to/from stadium parking right to the 190 which immediately hits 2-3 lanes in either direction. The city traffic isn’t as big of an issue when the highway butts right up to the stadium. Again, it’s all about the tailgating and the precious people loosing their ability to jump through flaming tables 10 Sunday’s a year. Which is going to be fazed out anyway. If people don’t think the Bills org is going around buying as many private lots as possible before this new stadium is built, they are delusional.

All out of the latest 64 pack of Crayola I see. Go back to your coloring book

Naw we usually just B about the same things over and over when the people with rose colored glasses keep bringing up the same things over and over. Someone’s got to be realistic about things.

Yeah I just don’t think that’s gonna be the case. We will see soon enough though. The process should be starting soon. I’ve received multiple emails saying it will be this summer. Omg that 07 Giants game was possibly the worst game I’ve ever been too. Nothing like sideways rain at about 39° with 40+ mph winds.

I don’t believe that for 1 minute. But it doesn’t sound wrong based on numbers. I believe they were limited in the current stadium to 55 or 58k.

Naw never

Yeah I don’t think that’s going to happen at all for you. I could be wrong but everything I’ve read, heard, and been informed by multiple reps is it’s not going to play out that way. The best you’re going to get is a virtual tour. Maybe yours will happen once there’s some significant structures up, but I believe it’ll end up being too late if you plan on getting one before you e already started to make pmnts or at least committed to seats.

I think that was Major League 2. That movie sucked. All credibility lost

And I’m just saying that I know what I see and when I look at Williams I see a guy that’s closer to a S than a LB in this league. Hope I’m wrong for the Bills sake.

The first guy is 7lbs heavier and he’s also an inch shorter than Williams. That’s like 17lbs based on height/weight. If you’re going by the average that every inch should equal about 10lbs. And 17lbs would defiantly be undersized. and just look at the 2 pics in these links. One looks like an nfl LB. The other looks like a safety that bulked up as much as he could for the combine to try and look like a LB. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.baltimorebeatdown.com/platform/amp/2023/1/10/23548727/ravens-sign-lb-roquan-smith-to-richest-ilb-deal-in-nfl-history-breaking-news-nfl-free-agency https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.buffalorumblings.com/platform/amp/2023/4/29/23703683/buffalo-bills-get-young-rangy-athlete-with-developmental-upside-in-lb-dorian-williams-2023-nfl-draft

It’s pretty bad against the run. They can’t tackle for chit. But maybe now that “tackle 5 yards downfield” Edmunds is gone, maybe they will actually be better. But I doubt it. They replaced him with guys that are undersized for the position.

Watching that Jax vid makes me jealous of what could have been. Instead Buffalo really took the easy way out. 🤦‍♂️

How about the 180 yards that n the loss to KC in the .13 second game?

I was at that wind game. The Bills were never in it from almost the start. Because McD was scared to pass the ball. Thank you

This. Thank you

The comment was in regards to McDs defense and coaching blunders. And no, we really don’t pass to much. This is a QB driven league. Allen was 9th overall in pass attempts last season and was 6th overall in avg/completion. One could argue that with more attempts he could have easily surpassed 4500 yards. And his 35 passing TDs which ranked 2nd. Btw Mahomes, Burrow, Brady, Cousins, Goff, and Smith all had more attempts.

Here I thought we were arguing. Did we just become best friends? I would have posted the gif of Step Brothers but it appears the gif issue is not cleared up yet.

That’s a given. I expected all of that 100%

I don’t understand what you’re saying. Are you making my point? That McD had significantly better talent in Carolina but had worse defenses than we do here? And somehow he’s going to get something more out of this group that has already proven to be a liability in big games when it matters most?

Yup

Yeah except when McD refuses to allow his QB to pass the ball like the Pats game 2 years ago when we lost to Max Jones throwing 3 passes all game. we were ran all over against the Bengals in the divisional round last year and the .13 second game as well.

So with better talent he was generally ranked worse than we are. Great. Just what I needed to hear.

When your up double digits in points a lot other teams generally don’t run against you.
