What’s the meaningful difference between the playoffs starting next week as opposed to this week? Or is this just another “complain for the sake of complaining” thread?

Thanks for this thread confirming that, indeed, we do want the Bills to win. Needed that reminder.

Looks like the county executive was right.

That’s my thing - these supposedly confidential scores get leaked every single year by NFL staff and personnel, in part, I believe, to cover their a**es and give themselves an out for picking (or not picking) a certain player. Sorry but if the NFL and its teams can’t help themselves from being scumbags then the test gets axed. I don’t know what the predictive value of the test is, nor do I really care.

some people around here (not necessarily the OP) have been trying to mischaracterize the weather Sunday to make excuses for Allen. One guy said he “saw the snow falling on TV” so he knew the weather was bad.

Lol. Sunday’s game was certainly cold but “heavy” snow? No. It was snowing steadily during the morning yes (but still wasn’t accumulating much at all.) By game time it was pretty light. If Sunday’s snow was “heavy,” what was the Bills-Colts game in 2017? Ultra heavy? Super duper heavy? Come on man. edit: However, this season overall I agree with your assessment - I can only speak back to 2007 when I started buying season tickets, but this season has had more bad weather games than I’ve experienced in a while.

I’m sure that’s part of it too. There are “opinion makers” if you want to call them that that have been saying for years off and on that Highmark Stadium’s capacity is too large for the region. They point to places like Indy and Detroit, two similarly sized markets with newer stadiums that have significantly less seat capacity (71.6K vs 67K and 65K, respectively.) A flat 60K capacity would make Buffalo’s new stadium the smallest in the league.

Also remember part of Terry and Kim’s share of the construction costs will be defrayed by personal seat licenses sold to everyone who wants season tickets. I have no personal preference with regards to dome vs open air, but even if they did build a dome, there is no way Buffalo would get a Super Bowl. Hotel capacity, etc. isn’t up to snuff.

1. They most definitely will raise regular ticket prices, maybe substantially 2. fewer regular seats allows for more “modern” amenities, club seats, and luxury suites.

Yeah I was confused by that too. I thought the current plan/expectation is 2025.

Interesting. So either Poloncarz isn’t privy to any statement by the governor tomorrow or the media reporting an announcement are wrong.

Yeah okay. Where’s the link to this statement?

If the recent rumors are true, it will be Commanders since the (Red)Wolves was eliminated due to trademark issues. Commanders is okay I suppose. They could have done a lot worse (and still might.)

Which is very on-brand for Dan Snyder.

No worries. And you very well could be right - apparently red wolves is out as of today: https://www.nbcsports.com/washington?cid=MSN Edit: it’s due to trademark issues with securing “Wolves” or any variation of it.

Read somewhere recently that the 2 rumored finalists were red wolves and commanders.

rotten to its core, just like the team’s owner.

I will correct myself - all signs so far indicate they are not building a domed stadium. I was at the game I don’t need to watch it on tv to get an accurate idea of how the weather was. The snowfall was negligible.

1. he had 3 INTs, not 2 2. they aren’t building a dome 3. the weather was not that bad yesterday by game time. It was cold, yes, but most of the snow had already fallen and the wind wasn’t bad 4. yeah, the no. 1 defense that blanked ATL in the 2nd half, or Motor running so well, had nothing to do with that win. All Josh - he willed them to victory 🙄 Allen put together enough running the ball to salvage his day. But he did not carry them to that win.

Yeah I agree Gunn I can’t anymore with this guy. It’s always someone else’s fault. I was at the game 2 of those 3 picks were inexcusable. Against a horrible opponent. Well that tells us all we really need to know. In all honesty he’s right about Allen for the most part I just can’t truck, “he’s the MVP, any negatives are not his fault, the MEDIA is out to get him” silly szn.

Agreed. He played poorly today. At home against a bad opponent and did not show up. The MVP s*** can stop along with this thread. Dude I’ve tried to defend you but no. He did not “play really good.” He made good plays (mostly with his feet) but the defense won the game again today. You’re just a JA suck artist. Do you even like the team? Or just another JA stan stinking up the board.

Depends on the price. I wouldn’t be comfortable trading any significant assets with his recent injury history. But is he worth a look if the price is cheap? Sure why not. A 100% Barkley behind even a decent OL is an upgrade.

Hammer has spoken about this and I know he posts here as well on occasion, but paraphrasing basically Ron was intending on scaling it back to 1/2 games a year, even before Covid. So no Covid is not the main reason for its hiatus. It was just getting too played up and played out.

there are various food trucks near the stadium outside the gates. Enjoy!

lol stop. You know this based on what? What’s your experience compared to Frazier and McDermott? Ridiculous.
