The initial roster is an honor because its not replacements and highlights the best in the game that season. It would be nice for a few Bills to make it. In regards to the game eh whatever haha

PG-16 based of DD's entrance requirement ayooo!

If true I really really like this minus one small thing. The family friendly portion makes me happy for the access they have and that is great, but also makes me slightly nervous on in game experience. In no way do I want nor condone the drunken idiots we see weekly and those people are not needed in the game. At the same point the Sabres have become so freaking family friendly that they do zilch to push the envelope. My fear is they start really trying to punish those who stand in the lower bowl and also have a much more corporate style fan environment that is not natural to what we as fans can contribute. I don't like that a lot of families won't take kids under 13 to a game so I am all for making that better, but I really hope they still allow the fans to be a presence and not neuter the experience.

My source said a lot of seats probably the color blue, some suites, bathrooms for sure, a few beer stands, and at least 10-12 concession stands. Speakers and soundsystem are still TBD

Whats really frustrating with Shaq is he was a 1st rnd pick who has now had two sizeable injuires that have limited his season. THEN add in this scheme was suppose to be better for him and he still was ineffective and he really looks like a bust.

For a time Fisher was an above average coach but the league passed him by at the end of his tenure in TEN. And in St. Louis/LA he really lost his touch.

Sh*t forgot about him. Yea he should be in there.

Today the Pro Bowl rosters are suppose to be released and I wanted to take a quick look at who the Bills may send. Micah Hyde won the fan vote as starting safety in the AFC which he rightfully earned and is in. This is who I see in and who else may have a chance: Is In: Micah Hyde: Sublime play and year from him. Plus his leadership his been crucial to keeping the Bills defense afloat. Should be in: LeSean McCoy: Buffalo's one true superstar player and man has he turned it on the back half of the season again. He will make it either in the initial team or as an alternate but I would expect him to be in the first group. TreDavious White: He has built an incredible reputation already in the AFC and should win DROY as look as the Bills make the playoffs. His rating this last week by PFF was so good that Jay Cutler was better off in-completing passes to the ground then throwing at him. Typically CB is a tough Pro Bowl spot to crack but he has forced his way to make this an exception. Toss Up: Richie Incognito: He is highly respected league wide for his play and leadership (ironic right). It is not surprise that as his play has improved so has the running games. Additionally for offensive lineman once they start making appearances voters usually stay with guys even if they have a down year just because of their name. Richie has made the Pro Bowl the last two years and I wouldn't be surprised if he is in even though it was a slow start for him. Jordan Poyer: He is the only player in the NFL with 3 INTs, 2 Sacks this season and he has been magnificent in coverage. The issue for Poyer is Hyde has been a little better and already has a higher reputation in league given his Pro Bowl election. The NFL rarely sees two safeties from the same team make it in and despite Poyer's high play I think he may need a guy to bow out to make it in. That said you never know. Steven Hauschka: He has had a great year for the Bills at one point going 13 straight FG's completed from 50 or longer. He is one of the few weapons other teams have to acknowledge the Bills have. Hard to say if he makes it only becuse special teams voting is always weird and reputation matters big time where I could see Justin Tucker making it in over Steve just because of that. (credit to YoloinOhio for reminding me on Steve)

He should won it just slightly over Lattimore. BUT I think the Bills have to make the playoffs for that to happen. Otherwise it goes to Lattimore because the media likes to see the impact of the player result in something tangible. A division title for the Saints after last year does that for Latts, a playoff appearance does that for Tre. But no playoffs for Tre he loses that even though its a team sport.

When you use any form of thinking to create a concrete argument with facts and evidence I'll respond again. Otherwise your just an incredibly pathetic individual.

This is a horrendously stupid take and how your a global mod is really impressive given how vain this is. You say the team is shredded talent and can't compete yet this squad is superior then anything Ryan had and his 2015 team was probably the most talented the Bills have had since 99 and unlike last years Bills team which sank against Miami this one showed some fight and won. You say with each win we cost ourselves draft position yet the Bills drafted Tre White 27th who was picked after CB's Gareon Conley & Adoree Jackson, but sure you can't find talent in later rounds. You make no mention of Dion Dawkins drafted in the 2nd round who has played quite well and has been rated highly by most major media nor do you want to mention Matt Milano's ascent into a solid starter. You basically make gross generalizations to try to support an incredibly shallow and pathetic point especially when 3 of the highlights to the team are from this years rookie class. Getting the pick of the liter at QB only guarantees your pick of a QB who may be less of risk of failure. Luck was suppose to be the 2nd coming of Elway and has been killed because his team has no talent, coaching, and culture. You can preach that it's better to be 4-10 is better then 8-6 because of draft, yet the best QB of all time was a guy in the 6th round and the only one who challenges him (Montana) was a 3rd round pick. For every high QB pick that is Cam or Matt Ryan I can throw back Brees or Rodgers who were late 1st or 2nd round guys who have outperformed your pick of the liter. It's a flat joke to believe culture and building a winning atmosphere is insignificant to just having high picks in draft. The top sports analysts say that having a large quantity of picks is the best way to go given the statistical odds of how the draft is a crap shoot. The Bills have done that and managed to exceed anyone's expectations in performance despite an admittedly flawed roster by the team itself. Sure we may not 100% know if this is going to work, but off what we can judge so far they are in good hands. People like yourself are the type I would never want to play sports with because you have no concept on what it takes to win nor the belief to do so.

You cannot expect that the Bills host of a 3 hr show 5 times a week dedicated to the team which is an arm of the team to actually criticize the Russ who is the head of the Bills and Sabres business wise. Second fans complaining about Russ who has zero role with team decisions anymore and can be credited for helping the team stay here still baffles my mind to this day. Yes there was a point Russ was at the controls and he biff'd it pretty decently, but that was years ago and I'm not sure what is achieved revisiting the past constantly.

For patriots nothing. BUT I think it was Peter King in today's MMQB said Bills vs Dolphins week 17 could get flexed to 4:25 if Bills beat the Patriots so the Chargers game later matters and their not eliminated before they start play at 4:25.

This is a pretty poor take. Murph is regarded as one of the best radio man in the game and one of the few who you don't need to see the game to know whats happening. Listen to other markets and how awful and truly bias their announcers can be. That idiot Scott Zolak is one of the Pats play by play guys and said Tre White deserved to get hit by Gronk because he was holding him. You will never hear crap like that from Murph because he is very fair and will straight up say when the team is crap. Now in regards to his radio/TV show now I think he is a bit too homerism on those, but given the platform its expected. Game wise though he is superb. Schopp is probably the single worst radio personality in this area of the state. His arrogance and self-righteousness is astounding and literally why I don't listen anymore. I wish he was replaced years ago.

They are a decent bend don't break defense that plays pretty well if we have the lead or when the game is close. The Bills problem in general on both sides is when they go down by a score and can no longer play the game on their terms of long drives that run the clock and they are forced to pass more. If you look at the 4 games since SD the Bills defense has generally had the games how they want them. Even the Patriots the defense kept the game to 23 points the offense just failed to produce. I would expect the last 2 to be the same. The 3 game stretch of bad on defense is as simple as this to me: NYJ: Game was in reach at half time but the offense fumbling away the tying FG put pressure going into 2nd half. 2 TO's by offense and game over the defense was toast. The frustrating thing with the Jets was the Bills had guys in position to make tackles and they flat out over pursued or missed. NO: SB contender showed what they can do and we didn't match either way. I also thought they team in general looked a bit shaken that they got beaten that bad by the Jets. SD: Peterman. The moment the picks started the whole team in general just seemed to quit. Doesn't excuse how bad they looked but yeaaa. I would note that the one major change that I do believe has helped a bit is Matt Milano starting weekly. He has started since KC and every week he has improved and made plays that make you wonder why not sooner he was starting. His play has helped to buoy the deficiencies of the rest of the LB.

This post aged well

Two things come to mind with Carr because I have thought the same thing that he was the next great thing: 1. Line play has regressed this year. They had a stat last night that in a clean pocket he has a like a 100 QB rating and with pressure its like 60% or lower. Last year the Raiders line dominated and was great, this year it has been an issue. 2. Knee Injury PTSD. Some guys can have injuries and comeback without missing a beat. Others our change for a bit, other for good. Watching Carr this year he has been far more skittish in the pocket and mentally he is just not reading the field the way he did last year. He still is a young QB and in general young QBs need to learn how to deal with pressure and hold in the pocket something he wasn't great at before injury. Mix in the fact he still is probably relearning his throws since injury and his mind looks to be a mess and yea he has sucked big time. -On a smaller note Oakland has played a far tougher schedule this year. Last year they had bad JAX, TB, HOU, middling NO, middling BAL, bad IND, & a regressed SD team. This year's schedule has had far less guarantees and the one's they should've won like BUF, DEN, & WSH they didn't. In general OAK has just been a major dissapointment

THIS IS THE MOST BILLIEST WAY. BUT OP I STILL LIKE YOUR THINKING!

Unlike baseball, football is made to be played in the elements and part of the sports history in general. If public money is not to be used they can make it how they see fit. If Public money is used then a discussion is needed so the public does have input regardless my opinion.

After hearing Talking Proud for the first time I was never more embarrassed to be from Buffalo. AND that is with the knowledge of why the song was made and what was happening in the city at the time. That is about as original as rice. The Dolphins also do this. I do hate the train whistle its awful and trains are my favorite hobby haha.

I agree with this. Next years offense even if it is with a newly drafted QB will still be very run heavy and if it is with a vet it will be a QB that is going to distribute the ball well for the WRs.

Reading this is like breaking the DaVinci code haha

My biggest issue with a bridge QB is lets just say Bradford or a QB like that comes in and gets the team to 9-7 even 10-6 and they make the playoffs. It's hard to then take that guy out and plug in the rookie who then is expected to have no flaws. My best case scenario would be the Bills break the drought and draft a guy like Darnold so the pressure is off in terms of playoffs and even if he has a growing year where maybe we fall back to 6-10 the foundation is truly set. I just feels we have had a lot of bridge guys like Fitz, Taylor, Orton and been down that road I guess. Respectfully .02

So bleacher report released a fun article today highlighting where they think QB's are going next season and the potential carousel that could be spun in motion. (http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2748670-early-predictions-for-the-wild-2018-nfl-qb-carousel) They have the Bills acquiring Sam Bradford. My response: Puke. Sam Bradford is the definition of average at the QB position and would only solidify more 7-9 8-8 seasons. This season has basically been one with zero expectations. Next season though I would like to start seeing some growth one way or another towards the future. I would rather see the Bills draft a QB and have him start even if we have growing pains, then settle for a ceiling of 9-7 with Bradford. The Bills have done a nice job acquiring picks, building a bit of a base this season, and over performing so far which if were lucky might result in the playoffs. This is not the time for Buffalo to settle with an option like Bradford.

I am pretty confident in the tailgating continuing (although it may be harder for people to go to private lots and jump through tables/fire), but I just can't see the team, city, and state investing in a new stadium without it being a retractable dome despite my wishes of staying outside especially after being at the game Sunday and seeing how amazing it was.
