     Perhaps now they can get a free agent Wide Receiver now, Jordy Nelson anyone?

    Nelson and Maclin depending on price would compliment KB very well. No idea on their market value though....

    One of the definitions of “joke” in the dictionary is any person who describes themselves as an alpha male. 

    I looked up the definition of "joke" and didn't see that as a definition. Even though guys that call themselves alpha males are funny, and usually not alpha males. There are Alpha Males out there so don't fool yourself, it's just not some jersey Shore DBag. It was an evolutionary tactic for humans and is used by many species to decided who gets to bang all the females, ex. Elks.

    So, lets assume the league is 8 teams. Which cities get franchises? Do they try to hit some untapped markets like Orlando, San Antonio, Columbus? Maybe some cities that have been abandoned by the league like Saint Louis, San Diego and Oakland? I have to assume they'll have teams in NYC, LA, Houston.

    I think doing all three could be huge, to be successful I see the three cities that just lost franchises as important. I think two/three from  Columbus, San Antonio, Memphis, OKC, Portland, Richmond and Orlando would be smart. Then two/three from (please no LA), NYC, DALLAS, PHILADELPHIA, CHICAGO, Houston,

    I dunno, I've been to Miami for a game and that place was like half-full.  MAYBE.  And they put attendance at 64800 (https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/201509270mia.htm).  I think its literally BS fluffed up numbers that they show to corporate sponsors.  There is no real data lol.

    I literally have said this and the reason why acouple times, can people see this post?

    It's clear actual attendance is down. Lots of seats empty at most games. 

     

    Obviously that would improve with the team improvement but I agree with the original OP: The Bills fans don't show like they used to. At the NO game, the stadium felt like it was 20% Saints fans. Of course, by the middle of the 3rd quarter, it was 100% Saints fans. 

    It's not about agreeing that actual attendance is down league wide, OP is saying Bills fans are disproportionately worse and we don't deserve credit for being a strong fan base.

     

    He is basing it on tickets bought and not actual attendance and then refuting the fact that in his same chart Bills away games cause attendance in opposing stadiums to be at the 4th highest "bought ticket" percentage.

  6. For people that are curious, NFL and most major sports don't show "actual attendance" the attendance number shown on every broadcast and on OP's link are not the actual attendance they are tickets sold. 

     

    I'm willing to bet New Era "real attendance" is a much higher number in comparison to other nfl teams.

     

    (Especially the Fish) I mean did OP  not see the stadium in week 17? Does anyone think the had 65,000 people there or even half that?

    Alright, guys. 

     

    I have a group of Bills fans here(5 of us) in Louisville, KY & we're trying to figure out whether to go to Buffalo or Jacksonville; We're looking for good atmosphere.

     

    Does anyone know if the stadium will be opened Sunday?

     

    Go Bills!

     

    *This is my first time on this message board, I never looked for a new one when the official BBMB was shutdown.

    We have 5 or 6 of us doing the same thing from around the country, we decided Buffalo only after the tix hit 400 for nose bleeds. Let me know if there's a watch party you hear about. We were hoping the stadium would have a watch party with the ability to tailgates, you know new era would be full!
