It doesn’t seem like we have a homefield advantage anymore

[zow2]

Not talking about the weather so much…but when good opposition comes to Buffalo they get really juiced up to silence “The Mafia”.  Bills had a great homefield last season when there was no juice in the building.  Good teams love playing here now with the fans back.

[Big Blitz]

No one does.  Home teams are below. 500 if I'm not mistaken.

I have to agree off the wall question do they still play the annoying freight train sound seems like they used to always do it I don't hear any more maybe they need to bring it back

Yep they sure do.

[Da webster guy]

completely disagree.

 

teams hate to play here, its common knowledge.   

 

 

[billsfanmiamioh]

Very insightful 

[Aussie Joe]

What should we do?

[Generic_Bills_Fan]

We still have a home field advantage we just haven’t been able to put it all together on the field this season in general 

[BillMafia716ix]

It’s easy to take the crowd out the game when you execute

Idk, it seems like the Bills' offense hates it too.

[JMF2006]

We need a Dome......and a Mono Rail

BTW we are now the circled opponent on every ones calendar.

 

Getting to the Conference Championship Game will do that.

[TonyBeets]

I could not agree more.

 

Yes, Josh Allen has the strongest arm in the NFL, however, we can't run the ball, and we cannot stop the run on defense.  Bad weather games were at a disadvantage

[Luka]

The weather is only advantage if you're built to play in it. We are not.

[gordong]

Actually the bills hate playing at home, they love giving up 200+ yards rushing though...

Was it just me or did the stadium not seem as loud as usual for a big primetime game?

I watched that game in disgust from start to finish.   Can’t even imagine being there in person.  
 

This team is soft, and plays in weather games all the time at home.  It’s tiresome.  
 

Last night was just the culmination of the fact that our outdoor stadium might as well give the opponents 3 points in Vegas as opposed to the typical home field benefit.

Yup.  Our stadium definitely puts THIS bills team at the disadvantage.  
 

the OL needs to be revamped. Well…..it needed to be revamped last offseason…. But we apparently didn’t feel that way.  And now we suffer.

The Bills are built to throw the ball. They are weak at the LOS on both sides of the ball. Last night take away Allen's 6 rushes for 39 yards and the Bills RB's totaled 60 yards on 19 carries. Being one dimensional on offense isn't good no matter where you play. But in Buffalo it is a must to be able to run the ball especially late in the year. The Pats threw the ball 3 times and still managed 222 yards rushing. This is on Beane. He is the GM, he built this roster, he needs to fix it.

Doesn’t seem to be a fix this year except to get in as a WC and hope we don’t play any games at home.  
 

Next year, sure, draft/sign two high priority IOL, replace the RB‘s and let Hughes, Addison and Butler walk.   Get another run stuffer and, at the very least, stop spending so much money on a mediocre DL that can’t stop the run.
