PSL Pricing/Seat Selection Discussion
Kirby Jackson replied to Spiderweb's topic in The Stadium Wall
I always thought that they’d have PSLs under $1K because of the messaging. Basically they can say, “everyone can afford it” at that point. You have 10 years to pay off $1K. I would have thought that they would have said, early on, the lowest priced number that would be coming out. You do risk people waiting it out so I get it. It would have been a powerful message though to say, “PSLs will be as low as $500 a piece.” FWIW, there has been VERY little pushback to date on the pricing of the PSLs. There hasn’t been this giant line in the sand that some people predicted when this process started. It really never happens. Nobody “wants” to pay it but the overwhelming majority of people “will” do it. This is always the case but holds especially true with the timing of it for the Bills. This process, in 2014 or 2015, would have been WAY more difficult than it is now. They are so, so, so fortunate to have drafted Josh Allen. -

I’ve learned when to push and when to just say, “I love the name Teddy.” 🤣🤣

Thanks man. It looks like Theodore (Teddy), Bennett or Everett (in that order). “Braxton Miller” was shot down pretty quickly. 🤣

Thanks Aug!! I’m a little old for my first 🤦🏻♂️. Can’t wait to get him out to Bills games. My brother had a son in May. In the new stadium we have 4 seats in a row. It’ll be so fun for he and I to take the 2 little guys. That’s how we grew up going with our dad. That was those early 90’s teams. These guys will probably miss most of Josh but will still be so fun to instill that passion into them.

Baby Kirby coming December of ‘25 too. No big deal

Who is the worst franchise QB in the NFL?
Kirby Jackson replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
The question isn’t “worst starting QB” it’s “worst franchise QB.” Those aren’t interchangeable. The question, as @FireChans asked it, is basically, “who is the worst QB that you’d pay franchise money to?” No one is paying AR franchise money. He might be backing up Daniel Jones. -
What was the goal? That’s why it’s weird the Steelers were like, “we will take a CB upgrade and a TE upgrade in exchange for our 2nd best player (who is 27).” It’s weird. If you’re pushing your chips in, you deal draft picks. I don’t really understand it for Miami either. They were like, “we will trade our only outside CB and our only TE for a great safety.” It’s weird

Bucket List Weekend - need NYC Reco's
Kirby Jackson replied to BuffaloBillies's topic in The Stadium Wall
There’s a JetBlue Flight that leaves JFK at 8:22 and gets to Buffalo at 10 PM. It’s currently $84!! You can do Ryder Cup, Yanks and be to Buffalo in time to get a good night sleep before hitting the tailgate. Ultimate dudes weekend -
What do you think Ralph Wilson would think of these Bills?
Kirby Jackson replied to Billsfed1's topic in The Stadium Wall
It wasn’t that simple though because the transaction was years earlier. I don’t remember all of the specifics but knew it pretty well at the time. I had some contacts that were heavily involved (and that’s an understatement). Basically, a sale wouldn’t have been approved to someone who planned to relocate the team. From what I recall, the $400M wasn’t really an option because of some other language in the deal. The team could not be relocated until 2020 or whatever and the league would not allow an owner to operate in a lame duck situation. That’s why some potential buyers pulled out after getting more details that weren’t public. Ralph, Littman and crew put all of this in place with NY. The reporting back then was filled with 1/2 truths and fear mongering. I posted a bunch on it at the time of the sale and the info that I was getting was from those involved. Lol, back then, things didn’t stay as quiet on the inside. -
What do you think Ralph Wilson would think of these Bills?
Kirby Jackson replied to Billsfed1's topic in The Stadium Wall
Ralph (and team) negotiated a lease that would make it impossible for the Bills to leave Buffalo. Toronto was never an option and that’s because of Ralph’s efforts. He would be thrilled that the team is doing so well (his wife is still there every week). Well beyond that though, he’d be ecstatic that the new stadium is being built and the Bills will be in WNY long after that last lease. He got his wish. -
Who is the worst franchise QB in the NFL?
Kirby Jackson replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
It absolutely is!! That’s why people have been on you. He had 4500 yards and 41 TDs!! The year before he had over 4000 yards and 28 TDs. That’s not, “I wonder if we should pay this guy” money. That’s, “we have one of the best QBs in football” territory. He’s been good in the playoffs too. To be clear, I am not suggesting that I’d take Baker over Mahomes. This is just some perspective: I’m not trying to derail this conversation but the suggestion that Baker COULD be the worst franchise guy is lunacy. -

Kirby Jackson replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
We all own it when we suggest something controversial. You threw him out in a conversation with guys that aren’t on his level. You’ve since been bombarded with numbers as to why he doesn’t belong there. If you’re lower on Baker than most, fine. If you are suggesting that there may be debate to who is a worse player Baker or Lawrence, you’re going to be challenged to defend that. -
Who is the worst franchise QB in the NFL?
Kirby Jackson replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
2 years ago he had over 4000 yards and 28 TDs. You’re WAY underrating Baker. He’s a top 10 QB. He’s not in the Tua/Lawrence/Kyler tier. He’s in the group with guys like Herbert, Stafford, Stroud, Dak and Goff. -
Who is the worst franchise QB in the NFL?
Kirby Jackson replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
Baker was my 8th best QB. He doesn’t belong in this conversation. He isn’t a fringe guy. 4500 yards and 41 TDs is not a low end franchise guy. -
Who is the worst franchise QB in the NFL?
Kirby Jackson replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
Man, that’s not fair to Baker. He’s coming off 4,500 yards and 41 TDs. He had 4,000 and 28 TDs the prior year. Him being suggested makes me uncomfortable. To answer the question, I think Tua, Lawrence and Darnold are the guys that would qualify. It’s tough to want to move on from them but you don’t win because of them IMO.- 101 replies

This is a good question and I think it’ll be pretty close. Each will get a decent amount of targets. I’d probably say receptions: Diggs, yards: Shakir and TDs are a bit of a crapshoot.

McDermott not in Top 10 of NFL coaches per PFF.
Kirby Jackson replied to 14774's topic in The Stadium Wall
The point was that McDermott and Pegula’s relationship is NOTHING like Payton and Benson. He did tons wrong (pill scandal, other drugs, bounty gate, has a child with a Saints cheerleader). Payton was bulletproof because of his relationship with ownership. I’m not arguing for Stefanski. I’d argue for Tomlin. He has a Super Bowl and has never had a losing season!! I don’t love his style but he’s a HOF coach. I said McDermott is like Purdy. Someone else said Dak. That’s good by me. He’s a borderline top 10 guy. He’s not bad. He has been BAD in the biggest moments which is why he doesn’t belong higher on the list. In terms of the 2nd Super Bowl, there is no call, EVER, even close to the Robey-Coleman PI. They kick a 30 yard FG as the clock expires. That wasn’t a hypothetical or a close call. Google, “what’s the worst missed call in NFL History” and see what comes up. If they make that 30 yarder (or whatever it was) they’re in the Super Bowl. They would have been playing a not so good Pats team. That game was awful. Payton’s team would have showed up. Where we disagree is that I think pretty much any average coach could have achieved what McDermott has with Josh Allen. Lots and lots of guys could have won the divisions that he’s won and the playoff games that he’s won. He has yet to win the big one and he’s had lots of chances. He’s 0-5 vs. KC & Cincy in the playoffs. His defense has been nonexistent. He’s a defensive coach!! You can’t be bad in big games and be considered good. Look at the way people trash Dak and Herbert and Lamar for their playoff performances. That’s McDermott. That’s not Sean Payton. He’s 9-9 in the playoffs. He SHOULD be at least 10-10 or 11-9 with 2 championships. That’s better than 7-7 with no Super Bowl appearances. -

Kirby Jackson replied to 14774's topic in The Stadium Wall
Payton has been good for a long time though. He went to the NFC Championship after 2006 and took an undermanned Broncos team to the playoffs in 2024. He won a Super Bowl in between then and should have went again 5 years ago. I think Payton is an offensive genius. He’s an idiot but he’s an arrogant genius. He doesn’t tense up in the biggest moments. He pushes his chips in. -

Kirby Jackson replied to 14774's topic in The Stadium Wall
In Josh Allen’s prime, Super Bowls are all that matter. I’m not wowed by Wild Card wins or Divisional Round wins. That’s not the NFL. This is a ring culture. Sean Payton has proven that he can win.
