‘Shakir has been described as a high character, coaches dream type player. He is taking a step up in competition from the Mountain West, but a certain QB in Buffalo was able to handle that just fine.’

‘What Matt Araiza does to a football is alaming. The San Diego State punter was known to boom some kicks 70 to 80 yards downfield. Of course the Bills hope he isn’t needed very much and if the last 2 seasons are any indication, he won’t be.’

And so while I wish that we could wave a magic wand and have the owners just pair their own pockets to build a stadium, it’s not going to happen. We have to close the deal. We have to keep the Bills in Western New York.”‘

‘“I think like, dining options would be a huge play. I know from my personal experience going to Sabres games and bills games, I’m very underwhelmed by the food and so like, I always try to eat beforehand when I go just ‘cause I don’t want to eat there because the food’s kind of not that good,” said Bills fan, George Narby.’
