  1. Matthew Judon is a handful plus!  This will come down to mistakes.  The Bills make them regularly and the Pats do not!  They need to clean up penalties and turnovers.  Penalties have been a problem for the last several years as have fumbles.  Josh needs to protect the ball when running and throwing.  He has has several games with uncharacteristic interceptions.  If they make mistakes, the Pats will eat them alive.  If they don't they should pull it out.

    I go  to Nashville a ton. Was there to see the Stones Saturday. Will be going again for game

    1) Far as Broadway its a tourist trap. Bars are fun and all  a lot alike . Monday Afternoon  I can assure you  Honky Tonk  Central will be packed with Bills Fans, all 3 floors plus the roof. Plus Jason Aldeans and Kid Rocks place. All wihtin a few bloack area on Broadway. Most of the joints on Broadway  alike now

     

    2) If you want to get away form the craziness of Broadway, Printers Alley is about two blocks form Broadway , more local places, not as toursity and crazy.

     

    3) Looking for dinner, the Adults go to the Gulch area , the restaurant's are good. My favorite is the Whiskey Kitchen, also West end about two miles away near Vandy is also full of good restaurants and not a tourist trap.

     

    Looking for a good brunch place Sunday or dinner Sat/Sun The Southern on 3rd Avenue  2 blocks form Broadway is exceptional, had brunch there on Sunday, my go to place for the last 5 years. . Make Reservations  

    Thanks!  Will definitely look into Printers Alley and Whiskey Kitchen.

    Anyone got a extra ticket?  I can travel!  Lol have fun guys.  I will be cheering either way.  As always, Go Bills!

     Guns we have one extra ticket . Great seats.   100 level.  I could get the precise location if you want.  Let me know if you are interest 585-802-7666.

  4. Yes, I have been to a game there.  Completely different experience then a Bills game.  My wife grew up in New Orleans and all my in-laws are season ticket holders.  We happen to be in town for a game.  It was last minute and I didn't want to bug my in laws for ticket.  I figured we go to the stadium and scalp tickets.  There is no tailgating but there is a big square adjacent to the stadium with booze, bands and the like.  Leaving the hotel we asked the bellman for tickets and he wanted $300 each.  We passed.  We got there and tried to scape and there wasn't a single seller- it was a late season game with zero playoff implications.  We kept walking around and asking and some guy asked if we were Saints fans.  I lied and said yes, and he gave us two tickets.  

    The crowd was fun but not nearly as rowdy or vocal as Bills fans.  The stadium is nice, with escalators to the upper levels.  There are jazz bands on the landings as you walk through the stadium.  Everyone was really friendly, but it lacked the enthusiasm and craziness of a bills game.

     

    One thing to consider is that generally the Saturday after Thanksgiving is the big Grambling/Southern game (Bayou Classic) in the dome.  The French Quarter fills up quick so book your hotel now if you want to stay there.   Also the Bayou Classic fans will be loud and proud- so be ready for that.  The French Quarter is a bit of a walk to the stadium but is walkable.  We took a cab because we were running a bit late (noon start).  Either way transportation was not an issue.  You may want to consider staying at a hotel in the Garden District or Uptown.  Both are close to the stadium but not walkable.  If you stay uptown and want a bit of a walk, the trolley car will get you there. 

     

    There really isn't a bad seat in the house.  We were endzone and the highest level and were fine. 

     

    We had planned on going this year, but ironically my in-laws are coming here for Thanksgiving. 

     

    If you plan on going, book early, make sure you have tickets (literally zero scalping), if dinner is your thing make reservations ahead of time!

  5. I think Williams is a goner.  He played outstanding this year, but his career has had great years followed by bad.  I can see them going Right Tackle in the first round and letting Ford and new guy duke it out.  Loser goes inside to replace Falciano.  O-line was good in pass pro last year by run blocking suffered.  I think we are going to see more change on the o line then anyone expected.

  6. Could be a smoke screen, but more realistically its a match up thing.  Colts have a stud slot corner that would match up nicely with Beasley not at 100%.  Having an extra big body non-slot receive matching up against otherwise mediocre corners can cause problems.  My guess is Diboll sees a potential matchup he likes and wants to have the big body available.   Or maybe they just want Williams to get a game check for being a good team guy?

     

    Remember just because he is elevated does not mean he is going to be active.

     

    No doubt Diggs goes, Beasley is 50/50.
