    I'm a Western NY native who has lived in Philly the past several years. I've also been to the last two games the Bills visited down here, including Sunday's debacle. The only bad experience from my perspective either time I've seen the Bills play here was the team's product on the field. 

     

    The thing you have to understand about Philly is that it's actually got a lot in common with WNY. It's a hard-working, blue collar city with a distinct regional identify that is often misunderstood and maligned by outsiders that know nothing about it except what they've heard. In reality, it's a criminally underrated city with amazing history, food and culture. In my experience it's a city full of down to earth people who happen to be diehard fans supporting their city's sports teams. 

     

    Philly fans get a bad rap based on stories from decades ago, but to be honest I've seen and heard of worse at OBD in recent years lol. This Sunday I got plenty of good-natured heckling from Eagles fans, and sure, also had a few "birds" flipped my way, but I gave it right back and they loved it. Some of them sitting nearby and walking around the concourse were actually pretty hilarious.

     

    Someone else said that the Bills are a neutral opponent for Philly, and that's true. We're about as neutral as they come for a visiting team here. In fact, I wear my Bills gear around town almost daily and almost always get positive reactions or genuine questions about the team. To be fair though, I'm not sure I'd roll up to the Linc in Dallas gear...they absolutely HATE the Cowboys here. Maybe even more than we hate New England, if that's possible.

     

    Anyway, this post wasn't meant to slobber all over Philly and it's fans, which like anywhere else has it's problems and bad apples. Just wanted to provide some balance and perspective from a diehard Bills fan in the heart of Eagles country

    The teams product on the field? Really? Sportsmanship,decency matter not? This is not a decades ago ordeal. We're talking 48 hours lmfao. Keep drinking your kool aid. Tastes like piss to me dude

    It’s tragic. I mentioned a story in a thread with similar experiences. Pretty sad people feel the need to act like that to anyone who, in the bigger picture, shares a common interest. 

    I tried to laugh it off for the most part. I finally had enough and had to go inside just before the tying fg. God,it didn't get any better,but at least it was dry

    I was there. Sitting amongst season ticket holders. Yes,everything you've heard about Philly fans is true. Absolutely disgusting and vile. I was screamed obscenities all game.Guys behind me had raincoats on and kept holding them out to funnel rain on my head. Was told Josh Allen was a N@zi,etc. etc. Just foul behavior. My second game there this year. Will never go back

    Any Buffalo centric tailgate area to stop by and say hi?

    I'll be there as well. Not sure you'll find what you're looking for. I'm stuck with a bunch of STH Philly fans. Ought to be an interesting experiance lol. Go Bills!

    the one good thing about this game is the 4:25 start. By that time half the crowd will be drunk. passed, out and/or in the jail under the stadium. Even so can't see the Bills winning this. It will be close so hopefully the Bills catch some breaks.

    I'll be there,but fortunately not amongst the heathens. That should help me avoid the cell😂

    Says who?

    Could you please recount for us the indelible contributions that Bob Kalsu made throughout his professional football career?

     

    OJ Simpson has no business being on that wall.

     

     

    Argueably the best football player for a football team Buffalo has ever had. Is that not reason enough? Reasoning counts on many different issues. I argue that is one of them. Regardless of what anybody thinks of him personally,he was aquitted of his major crimes. You seem quick to ride the tide of modern hivemind. You shouldn't moderate dinner,let alone a public forum.

    So,I never see you around on the stadium wall. And noticed you joined in march 2020,when the entire world shut down. Guessing you are not a Bills' fan whatsoever,so why come here with your vile? Banned on other social media or what? I mean,this is the proper venue....but, it IS still a team website? Just curious

    Suitable Edmunds Replacements in the draft

    Bills have run a 2 LB set with Milano and Edmunds and Edmunds was not a tradiotnal "middle linebacker ". Will the Bills adjust their scheme or look for a replacement that can do what Edmunds did? Is that Campbell?

    Milano played alot of "traditional" mlb last year. They may just replace the wlb in the draft,and interchange the two in McD's scheme...just a thought. Milano can be an all pro again with the right running mate

    I mean Burrow was out there throwing

    I get it. And Diggs was trying to rally the troops as well. Seems like a good option for a coping mechanism. I'm just saying, every team in the league has some kind of counselling available for players due to this. Other than us,Cincy has to be the most other affected team. Idk,just my thoughts

    When the league comes down and rules a Bills forfeit (which IMO is going to happen), I doubt that Taylor is going to stand up and say the Bengals want to take the loss also.

    Keep in mind...I dare say that not many of the cincy players were prepared to play either. It was a Bill in the ambulance,but there are other injuries that we don't see. Like pyscological. Neither team returned. So its either both forfeit,or you replay it,or the game is just simply cancelled imo

    When ya think of all the strange things that have happened in the last year to the Bills and WNY its crazy:

    1. Kim's Illness
    2. The Tops Shooting
    3. Knox brother dies
    4. The Ariza mess
    5. Hydes season/career (?) ending injury
    6. Blizzard #1, game moved to Detroit
    7. Blizzard #2 , 40 plus people die
    8. A life threatening injury to Hamlin

    ..How much more can one team and community take.

     

    Mike

    Has Kim's illness ever been addressed? I've not seen anything. But damn,you're right. What a f'd up year

    Highmark Stadium now requiring vaccination for entry

    I went to the US Open (tennis) last weekend with my wife. They required proof of vaccine to enter.  I thought that might make the lines and security take forever but it didn’t add any time at all and there were hundreds of people in line at each gate, similar to Bills game.  The “check” is a quick glance at your card (or for most people a picture of your card on your offing).
     

    I just bring this up for those folks worried about the added time to get in the stadium. 

    Were there 70k fans?

    Preseason Trade Predictions

    I still think either Hughes or Addison could be traded if the rookies perform in preseason. 

     

    We have a lot of depth at guard and I think Cody Ford could be on the move as well. 

     

    Kumerow to the Packers seems almost inevitable considering our depth at receiver.

     

    If he plays well in preseason, Antonio Williams could fetch a draft pick instead of being on the practice squad all season.

    I don't see TD Jesus going anywhere. Not only does he offer size/speed combo and catch everything, he's a ST standout
