  1. A friend of mine is a limo driver, I guess the itinerary is already flying around that Taylor Swift is confident that the Anchor Bar are the best wings in the city and refuses to go anywhere else, despite a number of recommendations otherwise. She said the only thing holding them back from being the best in the world is that they aren't served with ranch. Also, they are due to stop at Gabes Gate, but she is refusing to try the wings there. Instead she said she is a sucker for super dry roast beef that sits under a heat lamp in a closet, so beef on weck it is.
  2. Gabe is a great blocker and has a good mix of size and speed. He is a phenomenal player for the specific role he should be used on this team, and any team would struggle to replace that role at $3M. People are too caught up in WR 1/WR 2 production. We saw Brady be dominant with a couple of TE and a great slot receiver. Mahomes used the same formula. Everything doesn't have to be about the outside guys.
  3. Josh is about as locked in and calm as he has ever been in his career. LFG!
  4. I totally agree here. I was speaking from an Elam centric perspective. I think he is a good player that needs more live reps for himself. The team is in the playoffs with a very deep secondary, the team needs him to make that leap with his practice reps.
  5. With all the Gabe stinks this and Diggs is toast that, I think this offense is working how it is supposed to work, it is just more efficient this way. The ball doesn't have to go to WR 1 or WR 2 on the outside. We have 2 or 3 very reliable pass catchers in Diggs, Kincaid, and Shakir/Cook. Everybody else are role players. Make the defense cover everybody.
  6. No, I don’t think the best player on defense comes off the field on the last 2-3 plays of the game unless he asks for it. Starters will play normal reps with broken legs before a back up comes in to relieve them. Oliver looked gassed on the last series.
  7. Speaking of Ed, he was gassed at the end of the Steelers game. On the last few snaps he was lining up like 2 yards off the line of scrimmage standing straight up.
  8. Agreed. I’m less worried about prep and more worried about rest.

    Bojos biggest critique in Buffalo and GB was his holding duty. A lot goes into a good hold outside of flubbing it. Sure, if you’re Shane Lechler you could get away with being a dope on FG’s because you’re like the best ever. But punters do in fact get released because they aren’t good holders, especially when teams have a good place kicker.
  10. Even with snow Thursday everything will be plowed.

    Just a reminder that Araiza has minimal to zero holding experience at any level. Bojo was a decent punter here but holding cost him his job. Give me a guy with a slightly above average net punt and a long career of holding for field goals outside over a guy who basically ended up being a camp leg 2 seasons ago and never held a meaningful field goal in his life. Reassess in the offseason if you want but not this playoff run.
  12. My best guess is that the kid has a higher ceiling and lower floor than the rest of the outside guys. He can ball. But he needs more reps. McD likes the operating windows of a couple other guys better. Less risk.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 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
  16. My biggest concern for the shortened rest was injuries. We’ll get some back but we lost some tonight.
  17. I saw that and was absolutely shocked they had zero motorized snow clearing tools even for the concourse.
  18. 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. Even 35 feels generous.
  19. Honestly; just throw a dozen shovels in each section and open the gates an hour earlier.
  20. 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.
  21. 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.
  22. I assumed they maybe only have 200 shovels. But if that’s the case why not go BYOS.
  23. No worries. Didn’t mean to correct. I do really like their music though.
  24. 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.
