GottaRun

I swear I saw padded leather seats in the end zones. I can't imagine those fans are getting into the players heads. As a Bills fan this was the most exciting game I've seen in ages. As an NFL fan that was a sad TV spectacle.

Sure would love to face the EJ Manuel Raiders on Oct 29th.

He could have stayed on, could have been a great mentor to Jones, could have helped Jones through the rough patch that he has started with, could have believed in the process instead of bailing when Sammy was traded. So in short, no thank you.

Terrible odds of drafting a good QB now

and technically the league is trying to gift Buffalo wins.

No way in hell I'm honoring that boycott.

There was a lot of yelling and booing going on and I couldn't make out much over the boos. There were also a lot of people standing quietly like a regular anthem. The players are divided, the fans are divided.

Thanks again for the write up. The crowd was loud at times, people are starting to believe this defense is the real deal and their ready to throw their voices behind them. I'm keeping an eye on the aftermarket for the Dec 10th & 17th home games (currently available for $22 & $26) to see when/if people start believing this team is the real deal.

Shady was directly in front of me for the anthem - He stretched almost non stop, what you might call vigorous stretching - almost like he was making his own separate point although only Shady knows what that point was. He did kneel as the anthem was ending.

Thanks - I've had seasons for 14 years and I've never purchased water (coffee for cold games, but that's cheaper than water... go figure)

Wow... That's incredible.

This week's game alert "Weather: Sunny, 85℉ ☀ Bottled water for this game is discounted to only $3. Fans are encouraged to stay hydrated and drink responsibly." ONLY $3 for a bottle of water. WTF do they usually charge for it?

But I said I'm playing until I'm 50.

The guy in front of me was wearing a Buffalo Bills Micah Hyde jersey. I'm guessing that was the only one in the stadium?

Thanks - where can I find the snap counts? I googled it but all I see are old games listed.

It was a quiet tailgate, quiet game, quiet post tailgate and a quiet drive home with almost no one at the border. We won a game we were meant to win against a team that brought few away fans. No away fans at the tailgate = none of the back and forth chatter that usually gets people ramped up. I mentioned at our tailgate that it felt more like a family reunion than a party, if you know what I mean.

I was surprised at how many times I looked at the sidelines and saw Dareus being held out for consecutive plays. Don't know if his snap count was down or if it was just coincidence that he was there when I happened to be looking.

No kidding. I thought I didn't care about this season. I thought I would be going through the motions. Then last nights game came along and I was yelling at my TV and giving the finger to every sad sack Pats fan they showed. This morning my thoughts of the Bills going 6 - 10 this year have magically turned to thoughts of the Bills going 10 - 6. We haven't even played yet. The Pats losing is one mighty strong tonic.

I'm still watching because we're going to go 7-9 and win the AFC East ... by 3 games :-) Just let me have this moment...

Wrinkles? I've got wrinkles on my skin!!! #OverTheHill

Pretty sure my rooting will have no affect on this game, but I'm hoping for KC to upset the enemy. May this game be the beginning of Brady's rapid decline.

Yep, that one. The eyesight starts going, reflexes, timing. He's the GOAT but he's also 40. Him having a steady drop-off is in the realm of possibility.

Still feeling an optimistic 10 - 6 (give it to me it's pre-season). Sweep the Jets and the Dolphins, Brady will be almost a year older when we play him than he was at the Superbowl. A year at 40 is not like a normal year, he may be faltering by December 1-1 with the Pats. Tyrod is being coached to stay in the pocket for the pre-season but we all know he'll be off like a jackrabbit when the season starts. Shady is Shady, he'll be fine. The D looks to be fine this year. Clay and Boldin will set some kind of NFL record for 7 yard receptions.

Either 10 - 6 or 4 - 12. Before Watkins was traded any Bills playoff hopes came down to sweeping the Jets and the Dolphins + playing solid football and catching some breaks. I don't think anything has really changed now Sammy is gone. If the Jets + Dolphins are going to be as bad as I think they are then this team should still be capable of sweeping them.

McCoy once called Watkins a Ferrari in the garage. He didn't mean it the way it turned out, but that's what Watkins has been, a Ferrari in the garage - constantly needing repairs. I wasn't jumping up and down when I found out about this trade, but I'm okay with it.
