I remember one of the Home Opener tailgates, Hammer was giving pieces away that he pulled from the scrap/extra from the dumpster when they were installing it. It's less than 50%. Current estimated cost is $2.1-2.2 Billion. NYS and Erie County are only putting in $850 Million. The Bills and NFL are paying the rest.

These are the trials and tribulations that any team faces though. Beane has taken swings. Some were hits, some were misses - all were done in the available frame work. This team is better than the Chiefs who are having a bad year. They understand sometimes you just have a bad yr due to injuries etc. Most arent trying to run Andy out of town. I think the issue arrises when everything is all negative. Only two or three teams each year might not have glaring issues. If youve been through the drought, you know how bad it can be. I think the disconnect is, some fans act like this is a 3 win team and as fans we are dealing with utter incompetence from the coach and/or GM. Take the Slay situation... he tried adding depth with someone who's been there and won before and is a year removed from a meaningful contribution with a pic in the WC game. Instead of realizing this is an attempt to improve the team, people act like he had his choice to sign Chase or Watt and chose Slay instead. Now, with hindsight we can make a stink and criticize him for doing it and it not working and losing a player. I guess losing Ingram sucks, but he wasnt the reason we were or weren't going to make it to a SB. Full picture and hindsight these aforementioned fans are going to rail on him, but like I said yesterday, they are the same fans who would be moaning and complaining if New England signed him bc they added a gritty piece of depth with SB experience. You dont become one of the best regular season teams in the last 5 yrs based solely on JA. Its a culture, and as we know it could be a whole lot worse. Im not saying be content w making the playoffs, but if a new coach or GM comes in you arent guaranteed the playoffs or to advance further. You have JA as your QB, let the man try and fix the issue now that its clear band aids arent working. We act like they are just sitting on their hands. Heck, Id have been annoyed if they did land Waddle bc that's not the #1 I wanna roll with for the next 3 yrs. It wlda been helpful this year, but we can and hopefully will do better now we know they know as contructed its not good enough. Football fandom has changed and now its we want everything right away. Fans voices are louder than ever before and while this obviously isnt the best version of this club in the past few years, the people who want to fire Beane for it is just asinine. They dont need to be coach/GM forever, but they haven't even bottomed out which is why all this is a bit much and just impatient fans being impatient fans. Injury gets old to continuously hear people who have never worked a day in the league keep complaining bc they think their GM is a bummer. Id venture to guess they are both well respected around the league. Neither of them has committed something thats a firearm offense YET. YOU might not agree w his moves, but this isn't madden. Let him come out of the weeds and see how they fix this before hanging them in town square. You do you, but not living on the edge and wanting to blow everything up while having a bit more of a measured and realistic view makes for a much more enjoyable season. They are aware the idea is to win. Sometimes you win, sometimes you loose. Come back off the ledge and let it play out.

Kind of a tough game to predict. Both defenses leave a lot to be desired. Not sure how the Bills contain Burrows, Brown, Higgins, and Chase. Seems like a daunting task. Burrows certainly seems to have the Bills number although a very small sample size. Conversely, I'm not sure how the Bengals D contains Cook, Allen, the tight end, etc... Josh usually steps up in big games. I expect a big game from him. Cinci has more to lose here. They are basically playing for their season. Buffalo at home is very difficult to beat. Personally, the best bet is taking Cincinnati and 5.5 points. However, let's predict the score. Buffalo 34 Cinci 33 Go Bills

No problem. There is always the first round in 2026. See? Problem solved.

Ingram was afraid of the cold, best to dump him now

Imagine how bad the guy they want to replace him with is. Why are we mad that we stopped an upcoming opponent from getting better?

Correct. Speculation on what could have been.

Rosen!

I don’t if it’s been mentioned here but I’ve heard elsewhere. I think Slay might have thought a deal was setup with Philly. The Bills swept in amidst the tampering, and he was surprised where he ended up.

Hard to really know. I think he was worth a shot for basically free. Slay is or was a better zone CB so he might have done well under McD. I guess we will never know.

I don't mind it during the week leading up to Christmas but when they start playing it right after Thanksgiving, then that gets annoying. I don't need to hear it for a month.

Bills 30 Bengals 21 The Bills habitual December/ Jan run begins!

Jackson is a terrible playoff QB. "Best coaching"?? Harbaugh has won 4 playoff games in the last 11 years (losing twice to the Bills). McD has 7 in the past 5. Harbaugh is Baltimore's Mike Tomlin at this point--still eating free lunch off that SB win a million years ago.

No big loss, Ingram has been a healthy scratch all season

Any guy afraid of the snow is not for me. Pass

How many active coaches do you think HAVE won a national championship as a head coach? Answer: There are four active college football head coaches who have won a national championship: Kirby Smart, Dabo Swinney, Ryan Day, and Mack Brown. Smart and Swinney have each won two championships, while Brown and Day have won one. Kirby Smart Dabo Swinney Mack Brown Ryan Day Am I missing someone? Is Sarkisian also not a good coach because he too has never won a title? I consider Sark to be the best offensive mind perhaps in all of football. Lane is a very good recruiter and a great offensive strategist. He seemed to have learned quite a bit about coaching from Nick Saban, however he does admittedly come with a certain amount of baggage. I do however feel sorry for Ole Miss, who I think has a chance to actually win a title (although less of a chance due to his departure). And btw their qb (Chambliss) looks pretty damn good (as does yours). Lane got him from Ferris State and turned him into a possible first round pick. Also, Jaxon Dart is getting rave reviews from Giant Fans. Does Lane get some credit? The Ole Miss program might take 10 years or so to recover and I readily admit this, but Lane is the one who revived them and built a very good team. Like I said. he learned a great deal under Saban.....

Is there anything that actually states Slay wants to play in Philly? Maybe he just wants to be done. Could be why he was not on the Pittsburgh active roster last week as well as why they put him on waivers.

public perception doesn't win games.

Epenesa didn’t practice yesterday. Foot issue.

this should put an end to any of that insane "Dak should be in the MVP Conversation" nonsense heard since Thanksgiving.

Sorry. Misread your original post. I think he will be a special teamer for them the rest of the season. And when they do get healthy, probably a healthy scratch. He may not end up back in buffalo

correct - when you sign him from waivers it is to the active roster. Do you expect him to play CB there? or will he be an inactive player/ special teams guy for several weeks until their starter gets 100% healthy. I still see them cutting him once they are healthy and/or as a FA in the off season and he is back in Buffalo down the road.

Bump ..
