I've been to five games in OP.
Bills are undefeated in games I attended, though that was during the Superbowl run in the 1990s.

Why are people scared to pay a player if they get really good? Baffles me
If you mega-pay a player (Allen in this hypothetical), and also overpay 2or 3 players you end up in salary cap jail. Jailed teams are less competitive.
Rookie contracts are very salary cap friendly. That's why the draft is so critical to success. A good draft gives you financial flexibility to pick up assets in free agency.
To the OP: my opinion is that in 2022 if Josh Allen is lighting up the league, back up the Brinks truck to his house.

I didn't realize this. Beane is a true Wizard! Of course there is no way to keep this going for much longer but wow, what a young, talented, cap-friendly team we have. We are set up to be contenders for years to come. I am hoping to see Patriot like dominance in this division and in the NFL for the next 2 decades. WE DESERVE IT!!!
You're right, this won't continue long.
We're only in this cap position because our franchise QB is cheap--and that contract ends in a couple years.
You're right (number 2) WE DESERVE IT

Ambien and liquor will do that to you. Ambien alone does it for some people.

lolz, if Josh Allen turns out to his potential, our QB 4 years from now will be Jake Fromm State Farm.

If the COVID epidemic taught me anything, the primary lesson learned is: experts and their models and simulations are generally bull.

lolz... you may be closer to the truth than you realize.
Why build a palace stadium when the TV contract is most of your revenue?
It's nice to have the Chargers pissing off the NFL more than the Bills.

Whether this "portends well" is debatable. But it is certainly meaningful in one way or another.
Buffalo is susceptible to price overruns on major construction (why would be a discussion for PPP).
But you know costs overruns must be clearly on the mind of major players (Pegula's, Poloncarz, Cuomo) when they are looking at all the alternatives.

With such a downfield weapon at his disposal [Diggs], the onus is on Allen to improve those vertical passing numbers. His success – or failure – in doing so will go a long way in telling the story of the 2020 Bills’ offense.
Fingers crossed that JA can fix his long ball over the summer.

It's no surprise the safety they took in their draft from a small school was heavily scouted by Buffalo and rumored to be our pick if he was on the board. Belichick knows great defenses revolve around great safeties that's why he's always had them.
That bastard!

Semi-off topic: I just ordered Mufaletta Olive salad from Amazon. It will be here Monday. I can't wait.
Off topic because it's a marinade, not pickled.

I see someone already replied to the effect of: kick the tires, sign to a vet minimum prove-it deal, git er done. I'm mean he's a high motor with a nose for the ball process guy.

That we're comparing teams 20 years apart is a sad sign of futility that Bills fans have had to endure.

What is your problem with Pinto Ron?
No problem with PR. I googled and he seems like a kind of Bills fan who can be everyone's friend. He even has a wikipedia page.
It's just that the condiment dousing... blech.
Shots out of the bowling bowl is cool though.

Regardless of how scheduling goes down, can we do it without national coverage of the dude who douses himself in ketchup and mustard?

Brady craps himself in Tampa with gronk, evans, and Godwin
I think there is a good chance Brady bombs in Tampa. But it won't be him failing outside Belichicks system, it will be due to the fact he's 42 years old.
We some physical decline last year, it only gets worse.
As to the OP: I won't convince you the Pats are good. I could convince you the Pats are average--and average teams can be dangerous.

Wonder how that would affect tailgating?
Probably zero effect.
The NFL can only effect sales in the stands,
It would be up to the county to suppress alcohol use in the parking lots.

I fell for it.
No shame I guess. At least I didn't click on some Peter Pan link.

Suggestion to the NFL...
Given the extenuating circumstances posed by the Corona Virus, it is recommended that you increase the practice squad from 12 to 16 players for the 2020 season. While not a perfect solution, this will make up for the compressed schedules to coach and evaluate players. Expanded Practice Squad will provide some career opportunity to players who are on the bubble if only for the need for more evaluation time.
(related note: Practice Squad is 14 players starting in 2022)

It's dependent on Josh Allen's summer project: fix the long ball.
I know he had plans to tr4ain with others, I hope the COVID didn't stop that.

And? They do need to go through negotiation, ESPN is set to expire after 2021 and the others after 2022. The contracts that are negotiated will be before then, hence will likely not end up getting the full amount they could have under the new TV contracts since nobody will know the exact salary cap numbers.
But regardless those numbers are going up and going up a lot.
Yeah. And regardless of salary cap increases, spending like drunken sailors still isn't the formula for franchise success, much to the chagrin of armchair GMs.
Edit2: ask a Redskins fan, Cleveland fan or Philly fan how foolish spending has worked for them. At least Philly has some result to show.

I could be wrong -- but I'm pretty certain club involvement in off-season practices where players voluntarily get together is strictly forbidden by the collective bargaining agreement with the NFLPA.
I mean like seriously forbidden. Like losing draft picks forbidden.
