So you don't come out and say it you just imply it. Got it. Next, don't group me with others. I don't predict scores or wins and losses. I'm a forever fan of the Bills that watches every game and hopes for a win. The best part of sports in my book is to actually watch the games and see what unfolds.

OK. I just wanted you to give me the "guarantee".

That was last year. I take it from your comment then you a guaranteeing a Pats* win against the Chargers this year?

LOL exactly. What's your point?

......and they also lost to the Broncos at home.

I agree. If you add how many pass catching TEs also excel at blocking that elite number goes down even more. I will concede that an elite TE can create mismatches in defenses but the same could be said with having good receivers all in a 5 WR set.

LOL. When I cut the DirecTV cord I specifically pick Sling Blue over Orange so I wouldn't be exposed to ESPN anymore. My life is better for it.

I do agree there is a lot of different ingredients in the sausage. I guess my main point is that opportunity wise things today in Buffalo are much better for kids leaving school then it was when I left school in the later half of the 70s. When I left it was just the start of the big swing toward job and population loss and that acceleration mode lasted for decades. My younger nieces and nephews and now even grand nieces and nephews are the ones really working on me to move back. LOL, they are much more positive about their futures in WNY than I was at that age. I do see that as a significant improvement and it does give me hope for their futures.

Isn't Wing Fest going on today?

That is not a bad idea for fans who have no other option. Well done.

Maybe he is being prudent and setting his family and himself up financially in case his career is cut short.

Totally agree. I don't click on any of these articles. They just use fans as "cannon fodder".

There is some evidence that the population drain has stopped and may be reversing as the 2020 Census numbers come in. One thing I'm interested in is if the aged population demographics are changing and younger work aged people are increasing. I too have pondered a return to WNY now that I'm retired. I do wonder if in the near future a demographic change happens and a return to the Great Lakes areas are seen. Something as simple as proximity to water could fuel a change. It's getting to be a big issue out here in the West. Thanks for you reply.

Like I have said before ultimately this is a NY/WNY taxpayer issue but I am a bit disappointed that the stadium will not become a showplace for the Buffalo downtown rejuvenation. As a former Buffalonian it is nice to hear all the positive input I get from people in the business/medical professions/university fields complimenting their trips or college experiences in Buffalo. I do want to say to the WNY residents that the image of Buffalo is changing toward the positive and a successful Buffalo Bills football team will only assist in that change. Although the chances of a downtown stadium seem all but gone don't discount the importance of an NFL team. As others have stated it does help to keep Buffalo relevant in the nations eyes. Good Luck in this venture and I do truly hope it works out for the best. I am back to WNY often now that I'm retired and I look forward to attending games in the new venue.

I hope Josh has plenty of these starting next Sunday!

I'm almost scared to ask this question but here it goes. We all know that the initial play call is sent to Edmunds. My question is "How much responsibility is given to Edmunds to adjust or change the defense and is he effective if he does"?

That's what I used the past 2 years. Pretty good results. This year I got the college Sunday Ticket. I will use buffstream for the one ESPN game.

Well we know who to blame is they lose! LOL.

I've made peace with family members regarding their decisions about vaccinations and I am doing the same with the Buffalo Bills players. What is going to happen will happen and my opinion won't change anything. I'm off this merry-go-round. All I have left to say is good luck to anyone suffering because of this situation. Go Bills.

The Singletary 1000k question is interesting to some I guess but not so much for me. I expect the pass to run mix to actually tick up this season so 25-30 rushes a game would be the absolute top in rushes. Take out QB scrambles and some designed RPO plays, 3rd and 4th down rushes, goal line situations and some kneel downs you are left with less than 20 rushes. I guess now you got to ask what will Singletary's share of those be? If Devin can prove he can be successful running when teams are expecting a run he could get that 1000k because he would definitely get the lion's share of snaps. If he can't then it will be more of a group effort with less rushes. Daboll IMO will not take the ball out of Josh's hands unless they prove they can run even while up in the 4th quarter.

As George Bernard Shaw said: "England and America are two countries separated by a common language".

Totally agree Stank! Their CBs are going to really be challenged by Daboll and a good number of 4 WR sets. You might know better than I but after Hayden LCB and Sutton RCB (who has only been a depth player so far) listed in their depth chart I have no idea who is slotted for NCB let alone dime. Looks like mismatches galore experience wise for the Bills WRs.

Add McKenzie or Kumerow in 5WR sets (which I expect to see some every game). Last season Bills were 6 of 6 in 5 WR wide. Maybe, just maybe this is why the TE won't be that important this year.
