I agree with the no excuses. Both tomorrow and moving forward in the playoffs, should Buffalo advance.

 

It's all right in front of them. An almost perfect path back to at minimum the AFCCG. We have the team viewed as the worst team in the entire playoffs, at home and missing their best player with Mason Rudolph starting at QB. There is no reason to lose this. And should they win, we get a Chiefs team that is the least dangerous version of that team we have seen in the Mahomes era.  And we get that game at home. 

 

This is the year that McDermott can vanquish a LOT of the demons that have surrounded this team during his tenure. If he can get the Bills back to MINIMUM the AFCCG, a lot of the naysayers disappear. Stumble against the Steelers or get bounced by the Chiefs yet again and it will be a looooong off-season in WNY.

 

 

This is exactly to the heart of the matter.  Bills make it to the afc championship and lose a close one, I’m sure a lot of the naysayers quiet down. Lose a home game either this week or next week and it only reinforces what they have been saying all along.

why not just look forward to the game tomorrow and whine about stuff later?

Some folks are very devious about these things, have whine bottles hidden all over the house. They are creatures of opportunity, and indulge when they see an opening.

The last couple years between weather and the Damar incident, the Bills sure do lead the league in drama for the NFL league office and the TV partners. 

 

Rumors online persist that the stadium may be inaccessible and unusable on Monday but i think they will move heaven and earth to have it ready.  Whether 65K+ people can get there is another story.

2 less days of rest against a team who proved last night weather does not bother them and has had great success against the bills in the playoffs. This just keeps sounding better by the minute 

If reports are true, the Bills could’ve played today .. inside .. in Atlanta. 
 

I don’t want to hear about this.  
 

Clearly they aren’t worried about that.

The no excuses club is having a meeting I see.

Just a reminder, it is about seven and half hours before 24 hours before the kickoff of the game. In short, about 34 hours before that game wraps up.

The chiefs will be prepping in probably a couple of hours.

I saw  a KC offense that struggled to score TDs against a depleted Dolphins defense that had no LBs.

 

Take Rice away, Kelce isn’t the same.

We played them this year.  They know us, we know them.  No big deal.

So you’d prefer that Bills vs Steelers was moved to Atlanta instead of rescheduled ? 

Moving it to the Meadowlands would have been the correct decision

Hell no.  Glad the politicians had the stones to tell the NFL the game stays at the Ralph.

That’s not what was being considered though. It would have been Atlanta if they had changed the site.

Equally hell no.  The team earned its home game.

It’s still up in the air as to whether the Steelers can even get into town tomorrow.

I thought I read that Steelers were planning to fly in sometime today.  It looks like most flights are cancelled at the Buffalo airport website.  What the heck happens if they can't get here?

It should have been, any reason why it wasn’t?

They’ll probably fly into the Falls

It says a lot about the NFL that gave us a nominal home game where the London Jags were waiting a week for us to show up, and then wanted to take away our home playoff game and play it on a neutral site.

Because home teams earn the right to play at home

At best they could try to fly into Rochester, but the winds are no better therenit seems

It sounds like the NY officials knew it is an advantage for the Bills to play at home in the playoffs ,and lobbied for the game to be rescheduled rather than played elsewhere.
