For those that have been worried all day, this came from Rex's son this morning. @SethRyan20: #BillsMafia Just shows that sometimes, we need to not be so sensitive and try to read into everything. I know in Buffalo we have an inferiority complex (and rightfully so after the past 15 years), but things are changing. Enjoy the ride and stop worrying. The future is bright.

Tavern is great, as is Lebowski's to catch the game . The wings at Lebowski's are the closest I can get to back home. Is Tavern a decent place to go before heading into the game? I've only been there during games, not before.

Anybody know of any Bills tailgates going on around Bank of America Stadium for the game Friday night? Would love to run into a few of our own and share a cold Labatt. Go Bills!

Good post CS. Although I don't see them moving Wood out of the center position (given his experience against Wilfork, Wilkerson, and Solai), I'm with you that fans are overreacting to the loss of Levitre. I still think Buddy will pick up a serviceable vet in the $2M-$3M range later in free agency to plug in at LG. IMO if they draft a lineman, it'll likely be a mid-to-late-round tackle they can swing inside to play either of the guard positions and have Snow and Brown battle it out in camp for the remaining backup spot.

So to keep this covert, we would send the CEO of the team thats just as well known as our GM? That's definitely real low key. Listen, I'd love this as much as anybody but take off the blinders.

Tempo is closed on Sundays. Can we put this rumor to rest?

Per Joe Buscaglia on twitter. A new contract for Freddie?

Thursday night game 11/15 in Buffalo against the Dullphins

Mario Williams just tweeted: "Judgement day November 4th!!!" Guessing that means we'll be playing the Texans then?

@alexmarvez source tells me #mariowilliams to #bills "will be" done. Story comins on foxsports.com

where do i sign up?

doesnt really make sense to dump lynch and be left with a 29 year old and soon to be 31 year old in the backfield

and we could sign him right now if we wanted since he was cut

Williams is going to turn 34 this offseason and while some of the big noses have their best years in their 30s (Pat Williams and Ted Washington to name a couple) he's had a lot more wear than most other nose tackles. That said, I still think he could be a good stop gap for a 2 year contract til we can get the 3-4 settled.

Sure Byrd didnt win the defensive rookie of the year award but lets at least try to help him win this one. You can vote for him as many times as you want so lets get on there and win him that award Byrd For Rookie of the Year!
