I feel like special mention should be given to that Giants game in 2012 or so where the wind blew so hard they needed to tie ropes to the field goal posts and pull them straight before any attempts to kick. That was a day. On one hand I hate the bad weather but on the other hand I remember the bad weather games better than any other games I have been at.

Funny watching Bills fans already packing it in.
No kidding, this board has more optimism in years where we're 4-6 than it does when we're 7-4 and have a 92% chance of making the playoffs.

It doesn't matter how it gets done.
If you're talking about just getting into the playoffs and then see what happens sure.
If you're talking about winning the division then sure.
If you're talking about having a shot at the conference then it matters. We need the Titans to take a couple of losses, they only have 6 games left. The Pats, Steelers, 49'ers seem like the only likely games they might still lose.
-
So are people wanting the easier path to the Division and the pats losing to the Titans, or are you looking for the more nerve wracking pats win against the Titans but the Bills take care of the pats twice to have a shot at the Conference?

I got pulled aside for an ID check and someone about 10 in front of me was pulled over too. Quick check to see that my ID matched the form and I was in.

The Bills are mistaken, the Covid testing mandate being eliminated isn't in effect until the 30th.
We can cross tomorrow but we still need to show a molecular test to get back into Canada. After the 30th we can cross back into Canada with a rapid test. There won't be as many Canadians there tomorrow, but we'll still be there. Do not be alarmed 🙂

Been to every game, two different lines...line up and they check your vax card or app, no verifying against an ID, then you line up and give your ticket / go through security as usual.
Canadian here, finally getting to cross the border for Sunday's game. How early do you need to be in line to get into the stadium for kickoff? The Bill's say gates open at 11 for 1pm games, any idea when the line really forms?

I trust Frazier/McDermott against young inexperienced QBs……not at all scared of Mac Jones and his 13 TD passes in 10 games in which 3 of them just came against the Browns.
Not taking anything away from Mac Jones, but if he was putting up these same stats for any team other than the Pats he wouldn’t be getting near the hype. It’s not like he’s lighting up the NFL……he’s avg 233 yards and 1.3 touchdowns a game.
I think we'll have a better idea of who Mac is after the Monday nighter in Buffalo. He's going to experience a truly hostile road game, in an amped up stadium, if he plays well in our house I'll be shocked. We all know tough division games are another level of intensity.

I'm impressed, concerned even, but not worried. They have Tennessee in week 12 and us in week 13. I think playing us at home on a Monday night will be a level of enemy crowd noise that Mac hasn't dealt with this year.

Thing is, after saying he was immunized he said ""You know, there's a lot of conversation around it, around the league, and a lot of guys who have made statements and not made statements, owners who have made statements," Rodgers said at the time. "There's guys on the team that haven't been vaccinated. I think it's a personal decision. I'm not going to judge those guys." *
He clearly attempted to deceive.
*According to ESPN's report on this

They'll probably play us very tough to start but if we can pile up some touchdowns I think they'll collapse pretty quickly.
Wonder if they go a similar route to what Detroit tried on Sunday, pull out all the trick plays, go for it on 4th downs. They have nothing to lose at this point.

Football morning in American column is always a good read.
Figured Peter King would be discussing the Bills this week and he did.

Good article, I like this one
"Playing crazy had its drawbacks for Allen in year one and two. “Back in the day,” he told me in camp, “I tried to play pissed off on the field and I found myself not playing very well, tensed up . . . Now, [I’ll do] small things like listening to calming music pregame, to not be so hyped and anxious for the game.”"

Anybody know a site that doesn't charge much for cashouts? Hopefully it should be a good site generally and take international bettors.
Have any good ideas?
I use the PokerStars sports bet option, 888Poker has one as well. Never had any problems with either of them, can't say if they're the best, just that I've never had a problem with them

Feeling pretty calm about this one. Go Bills!!!!-

I was thinking of starting a thread about how it was better for our playoff chances if we lose this weekend but I couldn't pull the trigger.

It could definitely be Tourette’s syndrome… ticks often get worse in high stress situations. Can’t imagine a more stressful non-life or death situation than being an assistant coach AND Hoodie’s son in Brady’s return game, in what I imagined was the most watched regular season game ever.
Looks stressed out to me, nervous ticks galore.

Hey guys, just wanted to bump this thread to double check.
Me and my friend are coming from about 4 hours east of Buffalo for the Texans game next Sunday.
We decided to come Saturday and just get a hotel, so we could get an early start to the game from more locally to Orchard Park.
We decided to stay in Niagara Falls (Canadian side) thought it would be kinda cool.
Just trying to double check with anybody who might know, we can now get through, right? The stipulations are that you need a negative covid test within 72 hours, which we will get on Thursday. We are both vaccinated.
Are we good to both get into Canada, where our hotel is, and even more importantly to get back into the US on Sunday morning?
If you are American you can cross in both directions, the US is not letting any Canadians across the land borders.
Canada requires the PCR test to cross (typically more money)

There’s a fire sale right now on tickets, below preseason pricing.
Tons of $40 tickets out there in the ticket exchange. Losing 100% of the Canadian fans + whatever the number is of people who don't have 1 shot = great value for anyone who can still get to the game by gametime.

so the stadium will be at least those 6500 short of full?Depends if people can resell their seats. I haven't been able to sell mine for that one and I'm seeing a lot of posts popping up with people trying to sell. Usually lowering prices works but seats are already down to the $70 range on the ticket exchange. Pretty sad if tickets won't move for an October home game at that price.

They weren't there opening day either----97% seats filled anyway.
1. Opening Day
2. Pittsburgh Steelers and their travelling fanbase
Houston will be the interesting game attendance wise. Not a huge travelling fan base. Both shots needed. No Canadians. 3rd Home game and there are already cheap resale tickets out there.

Erie County is 65% vaccinated (NYS 70%).
That is 2 vaccinated people for every unvaccinated person.
That means there are at least 1400 fans waiting to replace those 700 (if not more like 14,000).
The ideas that there are equal "sides" to this, and that this policy is affecting a lot of people, and that the Bills will have trouble filling the stands, is laughable.
74.3% in the 18+ population (NYS) and that's the majority of the age group that goes to games.
These games are basically sold out, we're really talking about the resale market at this point... probably until December/January games and they don't usually sell out.-

I absolutely HATE the border thing, and you make a very good point. That would SUCK!
Do those seats not still end up getting filled in some way to a large extent?
The opener came close to selling out (97%) so most of them sold. I'm not sure if the WFT tickets will sell out* because the mandate adds a wrinkle that might stop another 10 - 15% of fans from going. With 10 - 15% of the seats not being filled by Canadians and 10 - 15% of the seats not being filled by the unvaccinated at some point you're noticeably going to see empty seats.
*sell out isn't really the right term, the seats are sold but will they resell or be empty
