I totally agree with you - in that being healthy for the playoffs is hugely important. The one thing you didn't consider was the the advantage of the BYE week in the first round. That is a major plus to being number 1 seed as injuries occur in the first playoff game all the time (last season the Bills lost both Benford and Bernard!). I do expect, and have been observing this for weeks now, that the Bills should sit injured players until fully healthy. I think the Bills can win the final three games without all their major players (except Josh - hence, if they sit him, I expect to lose). In the meantime, the Chiefs play this coming Saturday. Let's first see if the Texans beat them (and if the Chiefs start Mahomes). If the Chiefs lose, I'd play my healthy starters on Sunday. THEN, we can watch the Chiefs play Pittsburgh on Christmas day. Let's see what happens then.

My understanding is that the increased costs are not labor but the cost of materials which are way up.

Don't be so sure - about Taylor. He now absolutely has a reputation for this. If the CBS crew starts talking about this, as I expect they might, the NFL may want this to stop. All we need is one ref to start dropping the hanky. Just one. Maybe this Sunday?

McDermott just confirmed no Kincaid and no Coleman.

I believe Joe Marino has a field pass this year. He will be at camp all of next week incluing the Blue and Red practice next Friday. I will be there in the stands on Tuesday and Thursday next week.

Harrison - (rd 1 pick. Cardinals) Odunze - (rd 1 pick. Bears) McConkey (rd 2 pick. Eagles) Brian Thomas (rd 1 pick. Bengals) Worthy (rd 2 pick. Colts) Bills pick. Trade up to 24. Chop Robinson Bonus prediction: Bills Pick Xavier Legette or Roman Wilson in rd 2.

I do hope the Simpson family allows a postmortem analysis of his brain for signs of CTE. I have, for years, suspected he was suffering from this and it could possibly point to severe mental illness (undiagnosed) later in life. OJ was my hero as a boy but I too thought he was guilty of the double murder. I thought the prosecution did a terrible job and that the LA police made several agregious errors at the crime scene. The conviction in the civil trial, his subsequent behavior stealing his own property at gunpoint, and time in prison as a result certainly pointed to a troubled man , fallen from a great height, who some might say deserved all of it. I only know it was a terrible situation obviously for the victims and the family and also for OJ and his living family. RIP OJ, and I hope the victims remaining family have some peace from his passing.

I am having no problem hearing his replies. I am on the Bills app.

Kirby could you remind us where your current seats are?

I know I laways appreciate updated photos. So, I vote yes!

Hey, can you ask your lawyer if there is any way to have both you and your wife sign the PSL contract? My agent has told me only my name can go on it.

I believe these numbers are for two seats. So, 20K PSL per seat. $5150 per seat for a 10 game season (2 preseason, 8 regular season). Does not include parking.

yeh, I looked up where your section was. It looked like 30 to me but I only knew your row number. Certainly if you plan to be in the lower bowl, that will be more expensive. Billspride mentioned, "upper decks and end zone", there will be an extra deck (400) I THINK and the design is such as fans will be closer to the field than at the current highmark (so, for example 200 new is closer to field than 200 old etc). I prefer higher up to save money and to be under cover (hopefully) in the new stadium. (Us old farts like to be dry). Also, I have no trouble sitting close to an end zone. When the play is at the other end, I use my binoculars. But, some people absolutely prefer lower and towards the middle.

Hey Billy, there's a LOT of doomsayers chiming in here. We still don't know much about pricing especially in non box seats. But some of the wild guesses being thrown around here need to be taken with a grain of salt. Thousands of STHers were given surveys where we could give our priorities and price ranges moving forward. I am not at all surprised that Box seats are in the $500-$600+ per game on top of a $15K-$20K PSL. But those folks are a lot of businesses and people with deep pockets - the former as a tax write off and the latter only go to a few games while selling the rest. I do not have the number but maybe Mr Info can help us by giving us perspective, "HOW MUCH MORE ARE THE SEATS HE WAS SHOWN THAN HIS CURRENT SEATS?" This is irrespective of the PSL's. I believe we are looking at about double? My seats in the Family section run around $70 each so this could reasonably mean comparable seats would be $140-$150. So, $1400 per year or so on the low end. Now, as to PSLs, I DO NOT expect the $10K figure a few people are throwing around. Could be 1K, maybe $2K. So, that's where I am at. if it's less, great. If it's more, then well, we'll see. How much more? In any event, the survey numbers had the range as low as $500 to as high as $50K. The top range in the survey appears to be correct (basically). I certainly made it clear in my survery $10K was too much for my wallet to the Family Section (if there is one). Everyone around me in my section were very concerned about PSLs and said they also made this clear in their surveys. Back to you Billy - I would expect the Bills to make sure you have enough time to plan to come to WNY. Whether it will be in the summer or not depends most likely on the early Box sales. I do not believe the 70% number Mr Info was told. More like, 20-40% Sales people ALWAYS exagerate. Anyway, I urge people to try and calm down until we have more definitive info. But, it's your blood pressure....not mine. Go Bills!
