  1. Friday would likely be the better day, although Saturday seems OK prior to mid-afternoon. However, we all know what it is "expected" to do and what it actually does in terms of where the bands sit are two different things many times. Initially, the Buffalo Metro area was expected to get the snow that OP/Hamburg got a few weeks ago and Hamburg/OP was supposed to only get 2-3 feet. One thing not being talked about is with them wearing All White, they may be difficult to see and may blend in...I expect with the wind, visibility might not be more than 10-15 yards for much of the game and those white uniforms will blend in. If they were smart, their defenders should wear white head coverings and white sleeves to try and blend in more and the offense should wear orange sleeves/head coverings to try and stand out more.
  2. The Fin players will likely be shellchocked by this mentally. It's one thing to talk about it and "practice" in the cold, but it's another thing to play in it. Very few people will ever, in their entire lifetime, see conditions like this.
  3. 15-22 inches expected for OP and the game will be played literally in the middle of it...good luck to the Fins...going to be a hell of a broadcast tho for the National TV audience to see.
  4. The snow is supposed to be focused more on the Buffalo Metro area during the day and then slowly drift south into the Southtowns during the late afternoon/evening hours...you will be right on the edge of that being an issue but as always with these things there is no set way to know before Saturday gets here and we see what happens with the wind directions.
  5. It's not fun. I've lived here most of my life and had to drive in many a snowstorm...it's never fun and it's never as "cool" as people think it is. Mainly you are white knuckling it the entire time trying to stay out of the ditch, on your side of the road and ensuring you are able to stop in time when you see taillights in front of you and praying you never see the dreaded "headlights" coming at you.
  6. 15-22 inches in Southern Erie including OP He just looks so awkward when he runs...has no wiggle or shiftiness like Mahomes and Allen have.
  7. Bills are #1 in the NFL in "stuff percentage" on running plays. 27% of run plays against the Bills are stopped for no gain or a loss of yards.
  8. How many of them are misses where he shoots the gap in the backfield and misses the tackle due to a sudden move by the RB who is then swarmed under by other Bills that get there due to Milano disrupting the play initially? I feel like this is what I have seen a lot of in terms of missed tackles from Milano which are really inconsequential mostly.
  9. Have not seen one analyst pick the Dolphins in this one...most say "good luck". https://youtu.be/80X-CbYwgOs?t=844
  10. Hyde on One Bills Live saying he is back to running, lifting and working out and feels great. Doctors not allowing contact yet tho, says he feels ready but the doctors told him before and after surgery that he would and they have to protect him from himself.
  11. IMHO, the Bills can play their C game and beat Miami in these conditions.
  12. Matt Bowen for one.
  13. There are a lot of former NFL players and analysts who disagree with this. I think I'd trust their opinion over yours.
  14. Inaccurate forecast that does not factor in the LES snow at all. No totals yet as it is a little early for that, but I can pretty much assure you it will be more than 1-3 inches. NWS Buffalo is the gold standard for any type of forecast dealing with LES. Typically when it says the "snow could be heavy at times" it means 2+" per hour. Saturday Night Snow. The snow could be heavy at times. Low around 26. Chance of precipitation is 100%.
  15. Too early yet to really get solid amounts as there are a lot of moving parts with this one that weren't really in play in the other one where it was pretty much "you are going to get an ungodly amount of snow and nothing can save you" from the get go. This one has a bunch of things that could disrupt, shift, lessen/increase intensity, etc that won't be better known until probably late Friday night. The heaviest snows are expected in the Southtowns and ski country from what I am seeing and it likely will be around 2 feet as of right now, but it appears that amount may begin to increase as the conditions for a longer duration event into Monday and even Tuesday of next week now looks much more favorable than earlier. All this to say the 9 inches is probably the bare minimum for an area.
  16. There are defenders who have torn their ACL or suffered other serious injuries trying to get out of the way and not land on the QB while tackling them...it not only makes it hard to play defense, it makes it more dangerous.
  17. That sounds great but it would quickly devolve into a giant mess. Has nothing to do with it. Calls are always subjective and as such, one referee will call something another won't.
  18. He's getting benched because he has sucked. Dude has made Kyle Pitts invisible in the offense before getting hurt after he had 1000+ yards as a rookie TE. That's unacceptable. It would be like Mahomes making Kelce invisible in KC's offense.
  19. There is so much great content out there to watch on Youtube/Twitter/NFL.com etc I am not sure buying a book is even worth it
  20. Recommend the following YouTube channels/sites that break things down really well and explain things: Cover1 - Bills focused coverage with a wide variety of content and breakdowns on just about anything and everything...exceptionally well done most times and very informative https://www.youtube.com/@Cover1 JT O'Sullivan QB School - former NFL QB that has a TON of content on pretty much everything NFL related from what happens during the weekly preparations, film study, meetings, etc to breaking down QB film and games.

  21. Does he get to take it back if they keep trying to get him killed like in the Jets game?
