  1. Ticketexchange by Ticketmaster is the safest option. Ticketexchance controls the ticket SKU and will email you the ticket under your name. You just print the ticket of record at home. Stub Hub has a fan protection program so you are also covered, however Stub Hub fees or the buyer and seller are 30% while Ticketexchange is 10% so you should get a better deal on Ticketexchange

  2. I keep trying to find potential, any potential and I dont see it at all. There is not one part of his game that is solid. With no ability to throw down the feild we are done. This team has talent in many positions, but the QB is terrible. His string needs to be 2 more games, if there is no improvement then he needs to sit on the bench.

  3. He was projected as a 3rd round pick, a bit of a project with a strong upside. Accuracy was always a question mark. So far that appears to be his on field performance. I cannot understand at this stage why he has such poor footwork and does not drive forward off his back foot on every throw; this was one of the biggest differences between EJ and Rivers last Sunday. He appears to be a great kid and wants to be a winner, I just wonder if the Bills brass had a “hallo” effect on EJ driven by the caliber of the person versus playing ability. I really like EJ and hope he can make it, but his mechanics require a major upgrade to be consistent winner in Buffalo especially in November and December

  4. A few thoughts:

    *The NFL wants one owner who is accountable versus and consortium

    *Rogers access to cash is very complex

    *Even if they have the cash, it still needs to be acceptable to the Wilson Trust and approved by the NFL owners

    *If approved by the Wilson Trust and the NFL, there will be a strong fight within Canada to not approve any relo due to the impact to the CFL and any money towards a stadium

    *This bid appears to be very risk for the trust and the NFL

    *So far the trust and the NFL have been huge proponents of keeping the team in Buffalo

    *TPegs is a much safer choice

    *Nothing eliminates rational more than money, any bid from Toronto has to create the WOW factor to be considered

    *As a Bills fan we know its not over until it’s over, but I see this as a smart ploy by MS to increase the cost of the franchise to any local bidder

  5. Sorry if this has been stated already but here is one fans impression of the current bidding process:

     

    **Pegula pre lobbied his over value bid to eliminate low bidders and to expedite the process

    **JBJ is bidding to gain value experience on for future bids. Assuming this is the case he will be a lot smarter next time and bid with local billionaires and not with a group from a competing geography

     

    JBJ Sucks—he is ANTI AMERICAN. May he rest in the swamps of Jersey

  6. The basic answer is yes, however associated with that answer is risk. If the highest bidder wants to relocate the team it has to go to NFL owners for approval.which creates risk. I would believe like any business transaction risk is associated with value. The NFL has made it clear that the buyer needs to be committed to WNY. So a local bidder is clearly the safer choice. Out of town suitor will clearly have huge hurdles to overcome if he/she wants to move the team.

  7. Move the Charges up Hwy 5 to San Clemente/Dana Point or Southern Orange County. Change the name to Southern California Chargers and be done with it. There is existing rapid transit for both fans, highways already built and an establish fan base for both cities. NFL gets an LA based team, Chargers get a new stadium and the NFL saves face by making a reasonable move 50 miles north versus the fallout of a major relocation from another city/market.

  8. I think this team is in much better shape than in recent past. He came in with a vision and appears to be following his plan. He is bold. He talked a lot about speed on offense and player personal changes support the vision. Coaching and QB are still a pretty big unknown. As Parcells use to say "you are only as good as your record" so we need one maybe two more seasons until we really know if he has what it takes to turn the team around. But we finally appear the have a plan and a sharp young mind at the head of this ship.

  9. They paid a very high price, but like all investments it will take time to determine if the reward is worth the risk. Brandon, Whaley and Marrone have basically put their careers in Buffalo on the line with this trade and pick. It is great to see the front office take some risk for a change. Sure beats "just cause free agency starts today don't mean I am getting up early"
