Going with my son tomorrow and haven't been up in about 6 or 7 years. For anyone who's been already - do you think there will be parking at the houses across the street at around 9ish, or do those fill up quick? And, that parking is on or around Fairport Rd?

Anyone have any for next week? I'm willing to pay

I'd like to bring my son up for a day, but not having any luck online. Can't go next weekend, but could do most weekdays this week or next. I'm willing to pay for them. Thanks

Sorry , but when your d collapses in 3 playoff losses , two of which you blew leads in, the grass wasn’t all that green to begin with. Again , in 3 losses , the great D gave up 107 points, 1403 yards , and lost one lead with only 13 seconds left to protect . When it couldn’t do that , it promptly let the Chiefs march down the field as an encore for a game wining TD. To make matters more understandable , each of the teams that beat us with our vaunted D, promptly lost the following week and didn’t look like the same efficient offenses the Bills lost to.
I remember wide right, and that great Bills team never recovered in playoff performances after that loss. Wins just don’t happen because fans expect the team to keep progressing. Blowing that 13 second game, when Allen had two historic playoff performances , is something that could be analogous to wide right ; Allen and the team actually regressed in the playoffs this year , barely beating the fins behind a 3rd string qb , and then never being a threat to Cincy. Many analysts who were staunch supporters , are suggesting the team is at a crossroad and may regress. That includes Greg cosell, Bucky brooks, florio and sims, so they don’t seem all that optimistic with the current talent.
I wouldn’t call our situation currently green grass , more like weeds that needed a cleanup and pruning. Regardless of what happens now as Frazier rests, you can’t get back those lost opportunities. Even if the D is worse , and the record is worse ( which i expect given the strength of schedule and teams like Cincy, kc, Miami , and even the jets improving as they nearly beat us twice despite their terrible qb play ), it seems like a change in a positive direction to be competitive with teams like San Fran and Philly. We didn’t belong in the SB this past year after watching the caliber of play in that game.
I don’t see how the grass was so green ; beating lower tier competition , yet losing to playoff caliber play a third year in a row seems more like the color of fertilizer than a green pasture. 13-3 was very enjoyable, but having never won a SB and watching teams like CINCY & PHILLY,with less tenured staffs leap frog us, dampens all that great regular season success. I think it’s fair to feel it’s possible to be better, especially having probably the best qb in franchise history playing in his prime. Change helps clarify if you have the right HC at the helm or are you just wasting Allens prime years. Maybe the grass can be greener on this side of the fence if McD has better support. Remember , the fans didn’t make Frazier take time off; that either came from him , mcd, or above, so maybe lecture them about expectations !
I didn't say the grass was bright green, or it that it couldn't get greener, but it could get worse as well. And I'm not a big fan of Frazier either. Some calls were mind boggling in some big moments for sure, but these very well could have been McD. A lot of people were calling for Dabolls head last year - how did that work out?

I sure hope next year at this time everybody's not sitting around griping about how much the defense sucked. It seems like a lot of Bills fans are now spoiled and feel they deserve nothing less than a super bowl win. Of course that's the goal, but getting incrementally better is a much safer approach than blowing things up. We had a very good D. Yes it didn't always look great in the playoffs but there you are playing the best offenses. Having a top 5 D consistently is nothing to sneeze at and things might have been different this year without the Hyde and Von Miller injuries, to name a couple.
Things don't always get better just because you want to celeubrate change. I'll hope for the best now that this is done. Wishing Frazier the best and I'm thankful for what he did for our team.
Agree, the grass isn't always greener...

He's not getting 40 million per year, let alone 45 - 0% chance that he does.

One of the worse calls at at the end of a Super Bowl or big playoff game that I've ever seen.

They are both gone. Need to cut Hines for cap relief - he has no dead $, so will save 4.5 million.

The feeling I came away with watching the game last night is how many offensive weapons those teams have compared to the Bills. At this point I am not convinced the Bills can make it out of the 1st round of the playoffs without a struggle let alone match up with the Chiefs again.
Relax

I can guarantee you the Jets are coming away with one of the top draft grades and the Bills will get one of the worst and I can’t disagree with it thus far.
Elam has a lot of potential and great measurables so I’m optimistic. Cook is not his brother, has some explosive traits, but goes down from a stiff breeze and WTF was the third round? On paper, I believe the Bills have the worst draft going so far. For a team that has “the most complete roster in the NFL”, why are you stacking 6th round picks, when you couldn’t protect your 5th rounders last year? Hopefully, they package them all and don’t make more than 3 more picks.
Relax, Karen

Tre was a consensus 1st rounder. This guy is an undersized LB that will be lucky to replace Matakevich.
I'm sure McBeane and their staff have no plan for him at all besides "maybe replace Matakevich"

It's kind of pathetic how sensitive Bills fans are.

If I had to guess, the Bills had Sauce, Stingley, Elam and McDuffie with RD1 grades at CB.
I have no idea who they had rated higher.. Elam or McDuffie. Elam seems to check all the boxes the Bills want in high picks aka really young and really athletic. Beane wanted to add speed to the secondary and Elam can fly.
Regardless, I’m guessing they would have taken either of them at 25.
Then KC traded up and took one of them off the board. With only one guy left with a RD1 grade, they weren’t going to play around waiting for a guy in a draft that was off the rails with trades.
I agree and their grades must have had a decent gap between Elam and the other remaining corners. I have a feeling they are going to get their 4th back by trading some of their later picks.

I hope many are stepping back and realizing what an amazing time we are experiencing as Bill’s fans!
*Franchise, electric, superstar QB
*Stadium announcement securing the Bills in Buffalo for decades.
*Free Agents destination*A respected front office
*Super Bowl favorites
*Expectations to win not just compete
*A well rounded roster
*One of the highest paid rosters in the NFL
*Mega press coverage
*Drafting later in the 1st round
I could go on and on but for those of us who have been Bill’s fans forever I hope everyone is enjoying the ride we are on.
The ONLY thing left on this list is hoisting the Lombardi Trophy!
LETS GO BUFFALO!
The off-season used to be my "Super Bowl" - obsessing over free agency, the draft and of course finding a QB. I just wanted The Bills to be above average/relevant again for 2 decades. Now they are a true SB contender....is this real life?!

They usually aren’t nonsense at all. We telegraph what we’re trying to do and there’s been leaks each year. People just pretend there isn’t.
They are definitely nonsense and it's about the draft in general, not just the Bills. If there are leaks, they are usually fake. Teams feed the media purpose.

Nothing like hearing non-stop nonsense rumors for the next month!

He hasn't traded for Mack and adopted his bloated contract which would have destroyed any room to maneuver during free agency.

Sometimes, inaction is the best action of all. Let these rube GMs blow their wad on fancy moves and Beane will come in later and pick up the value players for cheap. He's brought the Bills this far, have some faith in the NFL Executive of the Year. Sheesh.
Completely agree - don't blow your wad early on players, especially with high contracts.
There are high end or above average players that don't get the contract they were hoping for every year....and in the end, sign with a top contender for a team friendly deal.

Just let Josh Allen do his thing and win a Super Bowl.....it'll come sooner than later

Bills related booster props on Cesars:
Allen - Over 249.5 passing yards and 1 rushing TD. +350
Diggs - Over 99.5 receiving yards and one reception TD. +375
Really like the Allen one and Diggs is definitely achievable.
