I went to the Packers game in 2018 and we toured the Packers Hall of Fame/Museum thing they have inside the stadium and it's pretty impressive. That franchise just has so much history. I love the Bills but I have to admit our history just doesn't compare to a storied franchise like Green Bay. I'm sure we can do something but not sure how much of a draw it would be outside of gamedays or gameday weekends.
I am pretty sure if there was going to be an actual Bills HoF as part of the stadium project, it would have been announced by now. But think the people that will flock to see a giant buffalo and some “just freeze baby” flags.
PS An actual ticketed Bills HoF along with stadium tours would have been a big hit outside of game weekends…especially come summer time and holidays.

…Maybe Adonai Mitchell or Xavier Leggette will be available.
Egbuka & Franklin should be there at the end of Day 1, and Coleman may also be. That being said, personal workouts and combine numbers/interviews can send players soaring or falling.

I have read a lot of mentions that Shakir cannot be an outside guy. Could someone explain why not?

It's bizarre how there are no hotels near the stadium. They are investing billions into the stadium itself and then $0 surrounding the stadium.
Would you want to own a hotel filled with drunks 10 times a year and deal with damage to rooms…and also try to figure out how to fill the room the other 340 days of the year?

So the NFL should be not at all surprised when this game gets pirated to death.
The NFL has the NBC rights fee in the bank. They could not care less about who is pirating the game. As far as Peacock goes, only they know how many new subscribers come on board, and how many remain after the game is over. If it is a huge loss for them, they may reconsider going forward. If not, get ready for more of the same.

Every time a thread like this pops up, I ask the same question…how many of you have been watching games on ESPN for the last couple of decades? You know…that channel you have to pay for.
This fake outrage over games being broadcast on a paid service is hysterical. Notice how all the whining about games on Amazon Prime has calmed down?

I never want to hear from the "fire McD" or "trade Josh" people again.
“Never” is a long long time. 😂

Will never know(and glad it didn’t come to this), but I had a gut feeling on Miami’s last possession that super nerd McDaniel would have gone for two and the win had Miami been able to score a TD.

Call Ralph a miser... But does anybody remember the free, all you can drink Bills parties he would throw the night before the yearly game in Miami. Usually in Fort Lauderdale. I wonder how thar would float in today's SocialMedia world?
He was a good owner!
I attended two of the parties at Shooters and then one at the Blue Martini(most recent). As far as I know, those parties were paid for by Russ Salvatore…not Ralph.

He will not retire or take a pay cut. The Bills will have to cut him this offseason and take a huge dead cap hit(this is what I would do), or keep him at least one more year knowing he is not the same player any longer, and then kick him to the curb with a somewhat less painful dead cap hit.

I was in Nashville for the 2019 game, and have been to Miami 5 times in the last 20 years. Despite the great turn out by Bills fans for all the games mentioned above, not once did I believe the crowds were anywhere close to 50-50. 30-40% Bills fans? Sure.

Isn’t that true for all QB’s?

Sorry I missed that point. I think the fact they are staying in OP means some portion of tailgating will remain. But they definitely want a portion of fans to "tailgate" inside where the new stadium will likely have some eateries and lounges. They might even build something akin to Patriot Place but on a smaller scale.
The Bills could have built a smaller scale Patriot Place over the last 50 years. Nothing then, and if I had to guess nothing going forward.

They originally said that the VR Tours would be available last March I think it was, Spring anyway. We're coming up on a year after that.
We're all curious, but the big mystery seems to be why they would be holding it back. It's being built, under construction, yet no great details have been provided as to what the final product will look like. Other stadium projects have provided the info when they've had it, for sure well before now in their projects, past and current.
Yet here it's some big mystery. It definitely begs the question as to why.
The only logical explanation as to why they'd want to wait would be a "big reveal" of sorts, but that's no possible given the monthly or so drone updates.
It's just odd.
IMO it is all about the hundreds of millions in estimated cost overruns. One of three things will happen…
1 - Pegula absorbs all the overrun costs, stadium stays as designed, and speculated PSL/tix prices stay at whatever level they may have had in in mind last spring.
2 - PSL and game tix will go up even more than expected because of the overruns(this may be the reason why the VR pitch center for STH has not opened yet).
3 - Stadium amenities/bells and whistles get downgraded to minimize the amount of overruns.

With all the resources spent on the defense, I’m sure McD thinks his defense can get him through those rough times.
…and he would be wrong. 😂

For anything over vet minimum it’s too much considering the cap strapped hell we will be in. Not to mention, that pretty much no matter what, If Allen goes down we’re not going anywhere anyway.
…but is is important to have someone you believe can play .500 ball if your starter is only out for a handful of games.

NFL Network is reporting that Josh is banged up after the last game. Hopefully he will be good to go on Sunday.
But this raises a key issue -- do you want Kyle Allen starting a game? Given the way Josh plays, its only a matter of time before he gets a injury that has him sitting on the sidelines for a while.
We all saw this year that a capable backup can take you pretty far. We need to be in a better position next year.
Define “capable backup”? Who did you have in mind?

Listening to state sponsored Bills radio while driving. They just had Thurman on. Considering his company is playing a big role in stadium construction, you would think the topic would have come up during his two segments as a guest…nope, nada, nothing.

I wonder if they are behind schedule? Drove by the site last Saturday, and they were working away(not just a skeleton crew)…on a holiday weekend no less.

College football is forever done.
This ND and Oregon “Bowl Game” is akin to a preseason NFL game.
It means nothing and half of the best players on each team are sitting out.
I agree. Between the million dollar NIL payouts, the transfer portal with guys switching schools at the drop of the hat, and then the end of season opt outs, college football has become a joke.
I would guess that any player with a shot at being drafted has an insurance policy against a career threatening injury…therefore no need for these ridiculous opt outs.
The NCAA should be embarrassed by all of the above.
