!@#$ you !@#$ you !@#$ you !@#$ you you !@#$ing c**k sucking piece of ****. I am so !@#$ing sick of the same !@#$ing god damn bull **** from the Sabres and Bills players and coaches after every game. We have to get better, we have to focus on the next game, we have to execute. and so !@#$ing on. !@#$ you all, stop talking about it game after game and week after week and !@#$ing act like you mean it. !@#$. God Marrone pisses me off.

When Sammy and FredEX were listed as questionable and either going to miss the game completely, or be at far less than 100%.

No how, no way, was this a sure win. Never was.

With that "long season" comment it sounds to me like he is mentally preparing himself for when/if he won't be able to go. I guess we will know Sunday. But even if he can go, it does not sound like he will be anything close to 100%. I hope if he is marginal, Marrone and the Bills error on the side of caution.

Going to be very tough to win if they are both out. The D would have to put the entire game on their shoulders.

There are several simulation type sites that agree with you. They state it as a must-win game for both teams if they are to have a chance.

i watch almost every Bills game recorded so we can watch later in the day with no commercials or halftime. I won't have the car radio tuned to a sports station etc that day so I don't hear the outcome or even in progress scores. If I know the outcome it does take something away from the experience. But the mere fact that the game itself is over has no effect on me. Once when we got home my wife turned on the 6pm news and it was exactly when they showed the Bills final score. Now the standing rule is if anyone seems her making a move for the remote, she gets tackled

Correct! The last time I checked, they had TVs in Vegas. Time away from the kids ... in Vegas? Tell your wife if she can talk my wife into watching my kids, I'll join her hehe Dude ... DVR.

Unless something happens like Manning going down, no way the Bills beat Denver in Denver. GB is a bit of a long shot, but possible. Particularly at the Ralph and if Fred and Sammy are back and at nearly 100%..

Cortana isn't drinking the koolaid

College town, a lot of students from downstate. Maybe that's the reason?

I'd take that bet in a heartbeat. So you have the Bills losing to both the Jests and the Raiders, and finishing behind the Jests who are currently 1-8. I'm not much of a gambler, but yeah, give me a piece of that please

Updated original post with ESPN picks

Granted. But given the teams the Bills have fielded in the past decade, that is saying very little.

As much as I would like the Bills to win, they have been the ones getting lucky and winning the close games lately. At some point that luck has to run out. Chiefs 23 - 20

Basketball is already reasonably popular in Europe so that makes sense.

You sir are the very definition of the ugly American, and you do so proudly But you can't really make any kind of comparison between the Toronto fiasco and putting a team in a foreign city. All the Toronto series did was to have a ****ty team play one regular season game, and one worthless preseason game with scrubs playing, in Toronto per year. The difference between that and having a team based in a city is so huge, there should be no reason to explain why .... everyone should be able to see that. But the real motivation for wanting teams outside the US is obviously money. You say the NFL is making more money than they need, but the NFL obviously disagrees with you. They need MORE always. And they have pretty much saturated every US avenue they can. I doubt they could wring much more out of the US TV contract for example. The only solution is to open up more markets. They will never get foreign TV to pay what they want without teams in those foreign markets. It's really as simple as that. It's the NFL remember, show me the money.

Updated first post with playoff implications information.

Microsofts Cortana - Kansas City Chiefs vs. Buffalo Bills — Chiefs win, 61.4% chance Nate Silvers Elo Model: Chiefs favored 53% to 47% with a Elo point spread of 0.5. CBS with spread (Bills +1.5): 3 take the Bills and 5 take the Chiefs CBS Straight Up: 4 and the computer take the Bills, 4 take the Chiefs. Some bonehead named Ryan Wilson picked the Bills straight up but the Chiefs with the spread (Bills getting 1.5) ... WTF ESPN: 4 take the Bills and 9 plus the computer take the Chiefs. Article from fivethirtyeight (Nate Silvers site) about playoff implications of this weeks games. Bills/Chiefs listed as an important one. "Other games of note include Kansas City visiting the Buffalo Bills, which will have huge playoff implications for the two participants (the rest of the AFC is mostly indifferent)." http://fivethirtyeig...mi-and-detroit/

I was just about to post this story as well. But here is another link about it. http://www.sportingn...d=SOC/FB/SNMain Lauren has showed a lot of class and poise during it all as well. I can't even imagine being that young with terminal brain cancer.

Nooooooooooooo ... not Naaman again!

Here is an idea for you http://techcrunch.com/2014/11/04/how-the-49ers-are-using-beacons-to-help-you-find-hot-dogs-and-beer/

If you do not work in marketing, you missed your calling. Way to swoop in there

Agreed. They should be out practicing in it as that's been the weather here for the past several days anyway. Not much different in KC so it should not be to any teams advantage. Just win baby, No excuses!
