Nice throw Josh!

 

[Highmark Stadium now requiring vaccination for entry]

Bills fans trying to get into the stadium in two weeks:

 

 

EDIT: Pretend it says 11 not 12.

[McKenzie found the common sense [Edit: got vaxxed]]

I'm surprised Star isn't vaccinated considering he sat out last year due to Covid concerns. I've also seen him walking around Wegmans maskless though.

This goes back awhile but I remember seeing that if they did build in OP there was a plan for building up the area around the stadium as well - hotels, restaurants, etc 

 

Hold on if a new stadium means the end of the Red Carpet Inn I object.

[EDIT: Total cost to taxpayers? Bills select sports firm to represent ownership in building new open air stadium in OP, targeted for 2025]

I think for me I would just like to see a restaurant or shop strip to go along with the stadium. With rumors that ECC is facing financial troubles maybe if they shut down the South campus they can turn some of that into restaurants. That was my thing with a stadium downtown. Yeah tailgaiting would take a hit but restaurants and bars on game days would boom. 

 

I just don't want a MetLife stadium where they build a subpar new stadium in the middle of nowhere.

I have been stuck down there for multiple hours due to Sabres gridlock after a playoff ot game.  When I go to Sabres games I always leave early due to the nightmare.

 

A bills game is unimaginable there without re-working the entire grid and 190.  I'm sure the study brought that to light.  

 

 

 

I know this is the stadium thread but what route are you taking that you are stuck in gridlock for multiple hours after a Sabres game? Even during peak years I would say I was never stuck in traffic for more than half an hour.

[2021 NFL Draft Round 2 talk - Official thread]

Macho Man fan doing the Mega Powers handshake with Roger made everything else worth it.

[49ers tried to trade 3rd overall pick and a bunch of other stuff for Aaron Rodgers, Packers said no]

Who do the Packers take at 3 at that trade? If you are getting Jimmy G and have Love a QB makes no sense? I guess you either draft Pitts or trade down and get more picks.

[Broncos acquire QB Teddy Bridgewater for 6th round pick]

The Broncos always seem to be a year off when it comes to drafting QBs. And from what I have read next year's QB class is not as good as this one.

[Just Because. (Taron's Pick Six vs. the Ravens)]

Anyone else besides me not even realize it was an INT til Taron Johnson was at like the 5? Maybe it was the blue on blue in the end zone on TV but I didn't notice the INT until I saw Taron sprinting out of it.

[Bills sign Mitch Trubisky, QB.]

Brandon Beane out here signing the only NVP in league history. What can't this man do?

[Lee smith traded to ATL]

Beane just woke up from his St. Patty's day hangover and screamed "GIVE ME THE F****** PHONE!"

[Zach Ertz about to be traded? [Edit: or Not]]

Well if she doesn't deliver it won't be the first time a woman teased me with something than let me down.

That's a highly optimistic and highly unlikely scenario.

 

 

How? Cases and hospitalizations continue to plummet. We are giving out about 1.5 million first doses a day of the vaccine. By summer the vaccine should be available to anyone who wants it as far as adults. Add in the herd immunity and people already infected, there is no reason to see that not being the case.

Those are Bold Predictions.

 

Isn't Will Fuller V under suspension for next season?

 

 

 He has 1 game left to serve I believe,

 

I wouldn't want Fuller here for the simple fact I hate him for ruining my fantasy season. My team was on the path to a playoff berth thanks to his stellar year then he went down. Will never forgive him.

[Re-sign or “wave good-bye” series: Player 6 - Isaiah McKenzie]

I think the WR position this year is going to come down to what they think they have in Isaiah Hodgins. If the staff thinks Hodgins can develop like Gabriel Davis did then it is a no brainer to cut John Brown and let Roberts walk, and hand more PR/KR duty over to McKenzie. Plus if they want to keep it safe they can always put Hyde back to catch punts when they are near their own end zone. 

 

I'd keep McKenzie around though if it were up to me. Couple years, maybe 2.5-3 million a year.

Both Watt and Miller are injury prone, Watt moreso. No thanks on either of them.

 

Before his injury suffered prior to the 2020 season (which by all accounts was a freak practice injury), Miller played 9 NFL seasons. He played a full 16 games in 6 of them, 15 in 2 of them. Only in the 2013 season did he play less (9 games). JJ Watt also played a full season 2 of the last 3 years. And we all know in 2019 he came back from injury in time for the Playoffs. Maybe do a little research before you post statements like this. 

 

I understand the appeal of playing in Pittsburgh with his brother. The defense would be great. But does he really expect the defense to carry Pittsburgh to the Super Bowl with dead arm Big Ben? If he signs with anyone outside of the 4 Conference Championship game contenders I would be surprised.

The Royal Rumble is next Sunday so I'll be watching some old Rumble matches on the WWE Network. Nothing better than the 92 Rumble match.

I think it’s the best HC job available 

 

I think in terms of winning now it might be the best available. The AFC South is wide open it seems every year. Next year is no different. Sure you can go to Jacksonville and take the sure fire QB in Lawrence, but I would rather have Watson as I already know what I have.

 

I'd still prefer the Chargers in terms of overall talent, but you have to deal with Mahomes twice a year and I don't think they are going down anytime soon.

[BARKLEY BOMB: 6,700 Fans Allowed for Playoffs!! Link to live conference at 3pm.]

I feel if 13k account holders opted in, that on the off chance we host 3 games, they are going to run into a situation where people can go to multiple games. I also wonder if that accounts for Canadian holders as well as brokers.
