It's far from the only song we use that's 20 years old or more. Should we not play "Welcome to the Jungle" either? "Mr. Brightside"? "Crazy Train"?
I don't know if you've noticed, but Rock hits have been extremely few and far between for a long, long time. We play songs that pump up the players and the crowd and that's predominantly Rock music. Who cares if it's outdated?
What do you suggest? The Weeknd, Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, Juice WRLD, and Lizzo non stop?
Bills Mafia - I suggest the Sopranos opening song, Woke Up this Morning.

2 hours ago, gtw3 said:The Shout song and 7 nation army are not comparable. One was a version of a song custom made specifically for the Bills that we have been using for decades, the other is a song used by sporting venues all over.
I don't personally have any issue with the song, it just seems really played out and generic. On the contrary, when you hear that "Aye aye aye aye" you know it is for the Bills. Doesn't matter where you are. Any Bills fan's ears are going to pick that up and echo it back.
Oregon does play the original Isley Brothers version of the "Shout" song during their games but it isn't tailored specifically for them.
Some quick hitters that come to mind (that I am sure everyone will be in universal agreement, likely unanimously praise me and not criticize my ideas at all) are something like:
Highway Song by Greta Van Fleet
Hysteria by Muse
The intro of Power by Kanye
People keep mentioning the Goo Goo Dolls for the regional connection but you could also potentially find something from Rush or The Hip that would be relatively regional.
Just my 2 cents.
.... Hooray for off-season threads
Well said. You completely understand what I’m getting at, and stated it better.

No one tell OP how old The Shout Song is.
I’m personally Okay with that tradition. That’s why it’s important to have this convo lol. Do we really want to make Seven Nation Army into a tradition. We can do better.

I’ve thought this for a while, it’s played out. I don’t really care all that much, but when I’ve heard it, the thought that it’s overplayed has crossed my mind. Thus it needs to go!
I would like to start a petition. This is an important matter. We cannot go into the new stadium playing this song. 😊

I remember that from FIFA on PlayStation back in the day.

Easy Stoyo. Most of us are still processing that we lost to that ***** show that played yesterday. Let us have some cotton candy topics while we recuperate.
I agree. I’d rather discuss removing this song on gameday than removing McD.

Some of the responses here are gold. Lol
I’d say I have not heard the song at another NFL stadium (4 different stadiums) in the last 5yrs. I’ve heard it at some college football games. No baseball games.
This is very important to me. This way next time someone asks me why the Bills play Seven Nation Army every game I’ll just continue to say I have no idea. “Good bass” 🤷🏻♂️😊

People who are determined to be miserable will find any and all reasons to be miserable. I bet you're the guy all the coffee shop workers roll their eyes about when they see you walk in.
Lmao. I’m not miserable at all. And smart asses like you are a dime a dozen. It’s a legitimate question, if you don’t know the answer then let it be.

It's wild you care so much to be embarrassed about a catchy bassy song that's easy to chant along with. Why does it need to have relevance to Buffalo? It's background noise.
How is it wild? It has to do with the game day experience. The song is not a classic and has no bearing to anything Buffalo, so why continue playing it every home game? Is the song deserving of being a Bills tradition on gameday? It’s a valid question in my opinion.3 minutes ago, Gugny said:
I’m pretty sure every sporting event for every major sport plays this song at least once/game.No, they do not.

Why do the Bills always play this song on gamedays? The song is 20yrs old and, as far as I’m aware, has zero relevance to Buffalo.
In my opinion, playing this song comes off as tacky, outdated and simply put: embarrassing.
1. Why do we play this song?
2. Who is responsible for selecting the playlist on game days.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

If you want McD gone you have to think that Harbaugh needs to go too right?
After all no hc qb combo has won a sb after 5 years together.
After all he is 1-2 as the 1 seed since 2019.
After all he is 2-4 in the postseason since 2018.
After all he has only made it to 1 afc championship with one of the most electric qbs in the game.
After all he has a 2 time mvp qb and has only won 1 division title in the last 4 years.
After all he has lost to a washed up philip rivers and ryan tannehil in the playoffs!
After all he has a 1-3 playoff record at home since 2018.
So if you wamt McD gone for underperforming and losing to the chiefs 3 of 4 years certainly you think Harbaugh is trash and needs to go to right?
The Bills and McD have outperformed them over the last 6 years and the Ravens have the benefit of the mvp and 3 first team all pros this year vs the Bills single 2nd team all pro yet still lost to the same team at home as the Bills did.
Or does a super bowl 11 years ago followed by a single afc title game appearance this year carry that much water?
Recent history and performance clearly favors McD so I am very interested to hear opinions of Harbaugh and whether he should keep his job or be fired.
Dan Campbell should go too. His game and clock mismanagement cost the Lions two wins off the top of my head.
In fact, any HC that does not make the SB within 5yrs should be fired. You play to win the game.

Only disagreement is on that early WR pick. I think most on this board understand, and are even in favor, of a very heavy defensive draft given our needs on that side of the ball.
I also agree with going Safety->DT->DE. Heck, I'd say Safety->DT->DE->Safety->DB->DT.
After our WR pick tho.
I’m fine going defense the remainder of the draft as long as we go WR with round 1.
I actually think we are pretty set at CB. But we will need some safety and DL help. If Milano is back healthy we are set at LB as well (Aside from depth)
I think going WR early is a no brainer. Davis will be gone. Diggs is likely on decline. Shakir is coming on. Diggs/Shakir/Kincaid should be enough for passing attack first half of season while the rookie WR adjusts and starts coming on 2nd half.

17-10 is hardly "smoking" the Ravens
Especially considering the Ravens did everything possible to lose that game. 2 turnovers in the end zone lol. What a joke.
The Chiefs play the dolphins with all their defense injured. Then play the Bills with their entire defense injured. And then play the Ravens who play their worst game of the season turning the ball over in their end zone 2x. When these “dynasty” teams like the Pars and now Chiefs start rolling it seems every toss up tends to go their way more often than not.

So does Dan Campbell suck for his mismanagement of the clock and blowing a 17pt lead? Should he be fired?

I believe he’s a better play caller than Brady. It’ll be interesting to to see how he does. Browns are talented.
Browns need a QB.

It’s coaching AND execution …Like I said … for all the injures, poor D play and other issues… the Bills still had an opportunity to win at the 2 minute mark … on the Chiefs 35 ,,,down 3
How do the Chiefs always execute. Game in game out. Year in year out. They rarely ever beat themselves. -
Until Reid retires, the Chiefs will be SB contenders every year. Imo Reid is the biggest reason for the Chiefs’ success.
As we saw this year, without top notch talent, Mahomes is really good but not other-worldly. Reid is a huge difference maker.

I think that translates to Josh Allen earned Joe Brady the OC job.So to be clear - when the offense does well it’s bc of Allen. But if we don’t score 40pts every game it’s bc of the OC?

Lamar is one dimensional. He can be shut down. Hes always been shut down in the playoffs.

How anyone can say Lamar is MVP with a straight face is under the influence of some political agenda.

Seven Nation Army on Gamedays
in The Stadium Wall
Posted · Edited by bobobonators
I laughed out loud at a bar reading this. Literally.
it’s really funny you mention the stampeding herd of Bison bc I had the exact same thought. I would rather hear that. And it would be original and relevant.
