As of tonight the Bills will be missing their top 4 CB’s and their top 4 LB’s. The offense will have to carry a good deal of the load.

The Bills got kicked in the teeth with injuries on this one.
Bills ended this game down:
DB
White
Douglas
Benford
Taron Jonhsob
LB
Milano
Benford
Dodson
Spector

My biggest concern for the shortened rest was injuries. We’ll get some back but we lost some tonight.

Wind blows snow.
For example, I saw a video where people were shoveling out huge mounds of snow from the tunnels leading into the concourses. Those are completely under cover. But the wind pushed tons of snow in there.
I saw that and was absolutely shocked they had zero motorized snow clearing tools even for the concourse. -
Tarping off seats this time of year feels like the best solution. That way you can get most of the lower bowl onto the field with a lot less effort than a random dude with a shovel.
5 minutes ago, Einstein said:75%? I’d say more like 35%.
Even 35 feels generous. -

Even if you were prepared to dig your seat out, where would you put the snow?

I think you’re right to be skeptical. The Bills also said they were capping snow shovelers at 200 people yesterday. 1,500 is 7x that.
Honestly; just throw a dozen shovels in each section and open the gates an hour earlier.-

Up that shovel pay to $30 an hour. Get those kids out there and start breaking backs
Given the weather at least give them “stand by” tickets for no shows.
Curious with all the hoarding of seats from from Seatgeak, Stubhub, etc. if the Bills no longer really hold any tickets themselves. Kind of like how Samsung isn’t in the business of holding stock. They may no longer have the quantity of tickets to give like they did in years past.

Good point; shuttle idea doesn't really work if you need to get "gear" to the lot.
Maybe a bunch of friends could get 1 guy to suck it up and drive to the lot...everyone else takes the shuttle....they meet at stadium and all is well. I wonder how large the average tailgating party size is. Or, in what volume do most people go to the game. Like a pair? 4some? Huge group of 10 or more buddies in 2 or 3 cars?
I usually went with 1 other person, or 3 other if 4 of us got tickets. Never bigger.
No gear, transport only. UB starts back up 1/24. Tailgate there. Have a couple pocket beers for the ride on the bus. Get dropped off and either walk around or head in and start clearing your seats.
Parking somewhere else only to carry your stuff in an unplowed lot just to do the same thing without a car doesn’t make sense.

The limit is odd. Guess they don't want to blow their "$20 fan shoveling" budget on just one game <insert Terry is cheap joke here>
I assumed they maybe only have 200 shovels. But if that’s the case why not go BYOS.

Sorry, been saying CBS all thread, only just got corrected. Agree, this announcing team is horrible, but the guy on the bumpers is world class!
No worries. Didn’t mean to correct. I do really like their music though.-

CBS just pouring it on. Def Leppard "Brinigin' on the Heartache"! JESUS! 🤪
It is Fox. They are my least favorite network for game coverage. But their sound guy/producer is an absolute legend.
They generally play a lot of jam bands heading into the break. Notorious for Phish and the Grateful Dead. They played moe. for the Bills game. I think I heard some Umphrey’s McGee tonight as well as some Grateful Dead.

That was a throw.

Jordan Love is the GOODS.
Im happy he’s developed. I have a soft spot for the Packers as well.Not to mention Love getting good feels like a kick to the balls to Aaron Rodgers which is also awesome.
If you haven’t seen it this is hilarious. Tosh is from South Florida and grew up a Dolphins fan. So he rips on the AFCE.

43 players on the 2023 All Pro team, and this is the performance from Dallas at home.
Absolutely love to see it.

4 hours ago, Georgia Bill said:
I just checked and the Rochester airport shows a lot of incoming flights scheduled normally. About 2 hour bus ride from there to Buffalo. Maybe that would be their plan.
At that point just drive to Buffalo. -

No snow tires. Driven in 10 inches of unplowed snow. A typical 40 min drive took 2.5 hours.
Would go halfway or so tonight and make the bad drive tomorrow when conditions are theoretically better. Can this be done?
In good weather Buffalo to Saint Louis can be done in a day. I’ve done it a dozen or more times.
That said given the weather is do it in two but I’d go much further than half way. I’d try and make it at least to Cleveland, weather permitting.
Tomorrow has the chance of not being great either, especially without having a hundreds of snow miles under your belt. You’ll want to be fresh rather than half tired and numb.

If true, that would have been interesting to see the fan split in the Benz. Tons of Bills fans In Atl, there are a lot of Steeler fans everywhere it seems.
Charlotte has a significant amount of Bills fans. I’d be curious to see the turnout there.-

Assuming a win, I have to assume Buffalo is a slam dunk for SNF next weekend. Both their possible opponents are playing Saturday (today).
Also, if KC wins, it’s THE match up next week even though I think Cleveland @ Buffalo will also be a brawl.
Also a thought, to get to the SB there is a scenario where we have to run the AFCN. Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Baltimore. But also we lost to Cincinnati. Bonkers.

Just now, Governor said:
Not sure but maybe questionable players could play with extra rest?
That’s right.Mostly curious if Davis, Douglas, and Dodson could go. But then again, with a win we’re heading into a short week. Likely better to just sit.
Sheesh, glad Josh’s name isn’t Dallen.
-
Question, what happens to the injury report for players listed as out? Can they be activated if another day of rest is beneficial?

Who are you to deny us the right to die doing what we love? Don’t feel bad for us. Just stay home if you are afraid.
if every ticket came with a waiver that waived your right to emergency services then go for it. But until then your mistakes mean that maybe fire trucks can’t get to my brothers house or ambulances can’t help my grandma.

It’s all fun and games until a pedestrian gets rammed into by a Ford F-350 careening out of control on an icy highway!
Or my brother or mom can’t get to the hospital if something happens. Or another fire truck can’t make it down the road because “muh freedoms”.-

Older gen wouldn’t have never moved this. As they go, things will start going downhill fast.
I’m not sure I know what this means.
I can’t wait for you to start quoting, responding, and agreeing to yourself on your other accounts so that you can create your own faux critical mass and go “see…l told you”.
I agree with you about the Time Machine bit things were better before you created this account.

Wildcard round - Steelers Bills post game thread
in The Stadium Wall

Fo add on, I’m in favor of unlimited challenges as long as you get it right. Sure, limit it to 2 lost challenges, but if a coach throws 10 flags and wins them all that’s on the officials/NFL, not the coach.
