December 6, 2021 Gameday Bills vs. Patriots* Pregame Thread
letsgoteam replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think a fair question will be, will the Bills call a game that looks like they actually took in account the weather report. -

Agreed, I believe the Bills can be division champs, and see no reason why they cant beat the Patriots. (Could lose though too). I would really like all of those teams in seeds 8 through 16 to get just so buried that even if the Bills dont win the division that they lock down a playoff spot without too much sweat. -

You could have just stayed here and heard the same thing!

Changing the gameplan due to weather
letsgoteam replied to Miyagi-Do Karate's topic in The Stadium Wall
My very short sighted, "hot" take, just yapping without any facts/proof/evidence is that the Bills don't do well accounting for weather into their game plans. I think back to the Eagles game a few years ago where the wind just seemed to kill their game plan. Same with the Colts game this year. However, I felt it more in that Eagles game. Again, zero evidence, just how I "felt". -
With all due respect (I'm being serious, I'm not trying to diss you or anything 🙂) I think that this "old school" Buffalo weather thing is something that has been over romanticized by a franchise that has only qualified for the playoffs (outside of the 90s) 12 times in 50 years of football. (20 times if you count the 90s, out of ~60 years of football) Being born in 88, so too young to remember the Super Bowl years, my guess (again outside of the 90s) is that bad weather gave the Bills some upsets or close games against far superior opponents over the 2 decades of awfulness that was 1967 to 1987. That "old school" mentality wore off was told to the generation before me while they grew up, who then got to the see the Bills at their peak in the late 80s and 90s. So, they believed the "old school weather" thing because they saw the pinnacle of the Bills franchise, and so now in 2021, you still have that generation "Billieving" in that. Where pretty much everyone else older or younger has seen the Bills mostly suck (I am a huge fan, dont get me wrong, but its the truth unfortunately). These younger cats only saw another almost 20 years of awfulness in 2000-2020, where teams with great QBs who throw all over the field (Colts, Rams, NO, all domes) win. Sure there is New England, but outside of the "Tuck Rule Game", how many bad weather games has he played. (I did check 13-2 in games under 32 degrees, but that doesn't automatically mean it was snowing or had high wind in those games) Again, I have nothing against "old school" football or anyone who believes in it. I just think that time is gone. (See earlier post)

I respect that some people like weather and nostalgia, but when the offense cant do anything because of the weather and they lose because of that, its going to be pretty miserable. I know they cant magically put a roof on the stadium now, but moving forward, build the dome!
-
Build the dome. Traditional "old school" football is dead. 17 games, tons of new rules limiting hits/chop blocking, rules that reward passing teams, non existent kick returns, changes to the onside kick, etc. Let the past die, kill it, if you have to.

If the Bills really mean business, they would throw the turkey legs on the ground and say they havnt earned them due to their play over the last few weeks. Haha -

If JA stays injury free all season, it will be a miracle. The line is awful. -

Gosh I was a nWo kid growing up. But love the Horsemen now too. Also to keep on topic, are we going to see a true jet sweep tonight? -

I'll ask in both threads. Which GDT is the cool one to be in? First half or second half? Has a WCW vs nWo feel to it. -

Still waiting to see a jet sweep. Even just the motion. I don't count that slow Digg's stuff early on today. -

I've been thinking on theories. Did the lack of holding calls last year, give false confidence in the OLs ability? -

Confirms troll status with that post. Maybe Josh Allen can retire and be offensive coordinator for Sean McDermott when he leaves to be HC at USC
