Hopefully the rebuild goes somewhere this time. Its been a long time since the Sabres were even respectable.

Just pointing the reason why Dallas is a good bet to get the game. Some people here think they won't get the game because they did last year. Last year has nothing to do with this year. I do understand why those teams get the games. Like you said it's not about being fair. $$$$ talks and that is the bottom line.

Beane and McDermott are good at their jobs and the Pegula's don't meddle in what they are doing. The Sabres either don't have the right management team in place or the Pegula's are involved in the decision making process more than they should be. Or maybe a combination of both.

Cowboys = major ratings which is why they are primetime darlings for the league. Have you ever noticed how the Giants always get primetime games even though they are crap. Big market NYC area team with an extremely large fanbase. I bet the Giants get on primetime this year and maybe multiple primetime games even though they are coming off of a 4-13 season. Giants, Cowboys, Bears, Steelers, Packers will always be in primetime no matter what their record was the previous season.

I would only go to LA and Sofi stadium if the Bills open there week 1. Won't be at the Cardinals game.

I think they will probably have Mike Tirico work with Collinsworth which they have done in the past.

Might as well complete the hattrick and include Erin Andrews as well

Just like Cowher. You can tell how much he enjoys working the pre and post game show for CBS. Get paid millions to show up in studio to talk/watch football all day. Then he has the whole offseason off.

What does Aikman going to ESPN have to do with Collingsworth on NBC?

That playoff loss to the Chargers in 80 was my first devastating loss with the Bills. They weren't very good in the 70's so this was it. They probably would have beaten Oakland in the AFCCG at home. They had already beaten them 24-7 earlier in the year and the only score the Raiders got that day was off a pick 6. The 80 Super Bowl probably is the Eagles vs Bills if the Bills could have won at SD.

Agreed. West coast trip and then 10 days until the next game. Big advantage. I just think it will be the Cowboys, 49ers, or Cardinals who get the game. If the Bills do get it then I will try to get tickets. Make a nice vacation out of it as well as going to the game. That would make for a great trip.

Diggs, Davis, and Kirk. I'm in. Get to work Beane.

Red, white, and blue. America's colors. It's certainly a lot better than the POS looking all blues and reds.

Today Daily News ( I cant post the article) has a nice write up about the Giants and how Schoen will have to make some very difficult decisions to get under the Cap including releasing some pretty good players. Something for Beane to keep an eye on.

I agree about the Thursday game throwing a curve ball when its coming off a short week. But Thursday week 1 isn't a short week. If the Bills win then they have 10 days until their next game. So playing on Thursday week 1 could be more of an advantage than disadvantage.

Oh please there are lots of reasons the Bills lose and the color of the jersey and pants isn't one of them. I have seen the Bills lose plenty of times over the years wearing blue over white. Should we get rid of that look as well.

They are not bad but they had a lot of trouble with good teams and good QB's. Despite the #1 ranking I would say they are more like an above average defense but not really elite.

Or he will use this "retirement" as an excuse not to show up to OTA's, mini-camp, and training camp. It will be just like his holdout last year but then he will "decide" to play right before week 1.

If he does retire then beating GB just got a lot easier next season.

Maybe Sabres fans should start chanting this at home games to get his attention.
