The Pats game at the end of the year statistically was nothing special. Watching the game he legit balled out and even NE fans at that moment realized he was a problem long term. After they lost to Cleveland he was quite good minus the Ravens game which hey their D is insanely good and his QBR never dropped below 60 other then that Ravens game (Jets end of year doesn't count he played a series). But he was still such a target for negative criticism at the time people really did not look deeper at what he did, their problem now.

That’s the next stadium in 2076. The Falls will have moved a few more inches further back by then to really make it more dramatic.

So I went back to my posts from like 2017 on that I started. Talk about a journey lol Josh was really fun going from 2018 then to 2019 to 2020. You can literally see the progression and especially 2019 you can see it come on for him for real and why people who solely looked at stats really missed on the signs he would at least become a solid starter. His overall jump is still rare.

2015 was the first time at training camp where the hype hit a stupid point with the team (thanks Rex lol). I remember some head scratching stuff then. This year has hit a level I didn't think was possible between Josh/Diggs getting pelted with merch and now people using rope to hang stuff. Ya'll need to find jesus! lol this is insane

Thought the same thing didn't want to say much as rumors spread like sh*t hitting the fan

Don't get me too excited with those dances moves and vibes coming at us Yolo! lol

As a rail officiantanto the line by the stadium basically isn't used anymore. Back in the 90s the Amtrak Bills train would drop fans off in Depew and they took busses in from there. An extension off the line from the stadium was proposed I have the concepts on my phone but it never came to pass. The line goes through Lackawanna which up to there is not much of an issue. The problem would be after that at Tift Farm as there are two yards and over 70 plus trains daily to contend with. You would need to spend a considerable sum of cash to build a flyover to connect into the city and another bridge over the buffalo river, but if you want a train connection that is your best bet as the major railroads will want nothing to do with the hassle of passenger trains running through.

The Toppenham stadium in ENG is the comparison both he and the team have used. It is fully enclosed concourse wise so no weather can get through. The actually seating area is covered by a roof that goes 360 degrees around. Super cool and well thought out stadium that allows an outdoor experience in a very controlled type way.

2020 showed the blueprint if you want to control your destiny. AFC #1 seed has averaged between 12-14 wins a year, 2020 KC just happened to get to 14 and we weren't ready. Bills were 7-1 at home in 2020 and they did not have a single bad loss (Without hail murray they were 14-2). Last year 6-3 with bad losses to PIT and NE wind game not including the road JAX loss and TEN conversion fail, they weren't crisp and it hurt. Get back to 7-1 at home this year and that in itself can help right the record to what you want.

I think Thad is kind of being criticized in the wrong way. His frustration is probably all of these media orgs cannot do what Cover 1 is which limits analysis and coverage they can do, yet Cover 1 because of their status and not being credentialed has free reign. The issue is more with the Bills and circumstance then Cover 1 who is superb in their coverage. The Bills are going to end up needing to decide whether Cover 1 becomes a credentialed member which would take away video OR basically say stop filming or your out. If I was a member of the media I would be annoyed if basically a similar media org could basically get away with film and coverage that your not able to. Again not a shot at Cover 1 who is superb, the situation itself is the actual issue with how two entities are being treated.

Warren is legit and he is speaking strictly in terms of betting which I get and brought up some valid points. I always look at the season like this when gauging where I think the record will lie: Games You Should Win: NYJ, at NYJ, MIA, NE, TEN, PIT, at CHI, CLE, at DET, MIN 50/50 Games: at KC, GB, at MIA, at NE, at LAR Underdog: at CIN, at BAL In theory with this idea the Bills would be 12-5 figuring they win what they should, go 2-3 in 50/50 games, and lose the underdog games. But last season showed just because a game the Bills should've won like at JAX or NE or PIT were losses. Using my model on how I view the games they basically have 7 which if they lost I wouldn't be surprised which does not give much rope to mess up in the ones you need to win. I would also add that the Bills need to be better at home as in 2020 they went 7-1, but last year they went 6-3. Go 7-1 at home this year while winning games at NYJ, at CHI, and at DET gets you to 10 wins with plenty of rope where you need just two to get to 12 which may be what takes the 1 seed again as the AFC will beat itself up.

I have said for each Bills preseason home game Buffalo goes 3 wide with Allen ten yards back under max protection first play of the game. Upon snap the 3 WRs all run verts as fast as they can, Allen throws it as far as possible and walks off for the game. Everyone gets to see Josh throw something fun, he is healthy, and that is it

Anyone not wanting free Madden let me know as I will gladly take an xbox copy haha

The Bills last year came into week 1 looking a little too hyped on their own praise and the play week 1 showed it. They got it together through the weeks up and through the KC game. After the TEN loss they looked a team expecting to coast for a bit which bit them hard. Finally from 2nd half of Bucs on they looked like the team everyone expected from week 1. This year at least through training camp they are taking nothing for granted and grinding on both sides for everything. I think the manner in which they lost to KC also has this team playing with an axe to grind in way they almost couldn't last year. It remains to be seen if that carries to the regular season we and the team hope for, but I honestly wasn't surprised week 1 when they blew it last year and were up and down a bunch as the level of praise on the team created a bit of an entitled bunch. The expectations and praise are similar this year but the attitude is visibly different across the board.

I have been waiting for terminator type body parts for a while. Holding out hope for fully robotic legs lol

While I understand people saying cancel all remaining practices and camp, you really do need these sessions to get your team aligned and in the spot they need to be for week 1. Bills medical staff has been top notch at keeping guys healthy and preventive injury so I got faith with that. Hopefully it is a hyperextension as said so far.

This is probably the two boldest so far

When Hasek was the goalie for the Sabres he was my favorite player as a kid. I sent him my playing card that was him and I got back that autographed as well as a picture of him autographed. Super nice and made my world as a kid. I still have the autographed card and it was in the blue and good which wasn't as common considering they switched colors to black and red for most of his time in Buffalo.

That is the honesty I am talking about! Huzzah!

To each their own with jerseys but I generally agree with you. I wear two Bills jerseys now being Jim Kelly (90s blue) and Stevie Johnson (white 2011) and both are older then me, I think it would be a little weird now to wear Josh as im a decade older but that is just my opinion. Now I have no desire to get another jersey don't see the need but def buy t shirts hats hoodies etc.. For me it has. I have pictures with Lorezno Alexander (with my wife and son), Jim Kelly with my wife and friends, and a got a selfie with Crowder this camp plus a close up of Von. Pictures serve more meaningful to me.

2010 St Pattys in Buffalo he was at the bar we were at in Williamsville. My wife then girlfiend and our two friends saw him and people quietly went up for a second took a picture if he was ok with it (he was) and that was that. My wife went up and asked and he was super cool, took 30 seconds and that was it. You could tell when he got there he was fine with it, but people were quick and civil and otherwise left him be. Super great guy and in that circumstance I didn't mind us asking for a picture as you could see he was good with it. But otherwise would've left him be and everyone had the good sense after to let him just enjoy himself. People who non-stop pester and don't leave them alone ruin it literally for everyone including the player. I think in the right circumstances they truly enjoy the celebrity status but you gotta keep it in check of what is appropriate. I work at Fisher currently and the Bills are all over, in 2019 I literally ran into players jogging around campus, I didn't bother them. If they want to talk cool but they are doing their thing I am doing mine and even though I am a fan it isn't the place for that. Kids forever trump everything with autographs and any living adult who thinks they are before them should go home and re-evaluate their life choices.

Don't sleep on Browns or even Miami (although unlikely)

Agreed. The only thing I mayyyybee get a little excited on is if a rookie truly stands out the way Tre White did in 2017 preseason. You could see that he was going to do pretty well. Otherwise preseason is about overreaction and overexcitement in good/bad ways. The 2014 preseason was a mess for the Bills and many people figured they were another 6-10 team. They at least ended up challenging for the post season late in the year. Last year people said the Bengals and Burrow especially was a step behind... that worked out ok for them.

Very few QBs outside the obvious Brady Rodgers Mahomes would’ve hung with the Bills going 7 for 7. I think Mac will be decent, it’s really really difficult to predict QBs after one year because sometimes they are Baker Mayfield and sometimes they Peyton Manning in subsequent years. I think BB will be gone soon I’m curious how he does without that help.

I work at SJFC we have the top dinning hall and services in the state. Trust me the food is legit and I’m sure the players don’t mind it.
