  1. Chiefs have stud WR’s as well but having another weapon at TE opens up the offense even more. Also our WR’s were mitigated by a physical Chiefs secondary in the AFC Championship which only adds more pressure for the TE being able to make plays.
  2. Bigger question is who gets cut when he comes off?
  3. Seems like they are doubling down that Knox steps up. Sweeney is an unknown as he hasn’t been able to stay on the field thus far. Feels like TE is even more of a concern this year than last. Time will tell.
  4. One would have to assume Harrison and Sweeney are going to IR and Ferguson and Hollister are coming back. Otherwise it makes zero sense IMO.
  5. My daughter is much younger, 13, but we are staying here. Have a rental car and plan to go to Niagara Falls, Bar Bill for wings and wreck plus going to the Bills store for merchandise. Plan to hit Ted’s as well. Open to other recommendations for must go to restaurants.
  6. Right now the majority of the AFC is harder for a new head coach than the NFC. You could make the case for 10 to 11 AFC teams who are competitive enough to make the playoff. NFC has maybe 5 solid teams this year.
  7. Love the way Andre Smith hits! Wish we could see that same type of hitting from Edmunds but understand that’s not the way he plays.
  8. Coming into Buffalo for the Houston game with my wife and daughter Friday night. (Section 115 row 19) Planning to do Maid of the Mist Saturday and then get some Bills merchandise. Thanks for starting this thread. We have an Anchor Bar in Atlanta and used to have Duff’s. Certainly sounds like we need to go to Bar Bill for wings and a weck. Hear we need to go to Ted’s as well. Obviously off topic, but any recommendations on the best place for Bills merchandise. Assuming the Bills store at the stadium.
  9. I disagree. GB, JAX, KC aren’t big time markets. Buffalo maybe a smaller market but the national fanbase is huge. If a player is a stud, the press will follow. Josh and the Bills just need to keep doing what they’ve been doing………WINNING! People like winners and playmakers.
  10. Exciting to see the offense know what it wants to do and execute. No reason thus far to believe this offense won’t be one of the top in the league. Defensively, I know it was more of a vanilla defense, but was really hoping having Star back, we would see a difference. What I saw was our D getting pushed back consistently in the run game and Edmunds not filling the gap. Our run game will need to be strong as teams will want to run against us to keep our offense throttled and off the field as much as possible. Hope my view is an over action and not what plays out in the regular season. We need Star and Edmunds to really step up this year. Thankfully, we made it thru preseason without any significant injuries. As a long time Bills fan, it’s amazing to reflect back on how far this team has come and the overall quality and competitiveness of the roster. Hoping we can add a player or two with roster cuts. LETS GO BUFFALO!
  11. Assuming Beasley, Davis, Star and Butler are not allowed to play. I sure hope Star has been crushing it as practice as reported because it’s been awhile since he’s gone against an opposing team and played the majority of a game.
  12. I fully expect this game to be close as I never take a game for granted. I expect the Steelers offense to be better this year and more balanced. Hopefully the Bills are healthy for the opener and the starters are ready to go. Glad it’s a home game.
  13. I do hope we see some movement quickly with some of the players who have been waiting or holding out. It really could cost the team a win if they were unavailable to play or worst yet had to miss multiple games. The one enigma to me is Star. He opted to sit out last year but then doesn’t get vaccinated. Having a hard time understanding that rationale.
  14. 2010 was a horrible draft for Buffalo but then again it wasn’t surprising.
  15. I wonder if the Bills are exploring putting Rousseau in on FG attempts? With his height and arm length, you would think he might block a few. Especially on long FG attempts.
  16. No beef with the penalty. Smith should learn to slide his helmet to the side and it would’ve been 100% legit.
  17. What in the world was the penalty at the end of the quarter? They called #94 with leading with the helmet against rushing the OT.
  18. Have to expect Beane is working the phones regarding TE depth. Was hoping Sweeney would have a strong camp.
  19. Thanks everyone for your recommendations. Really appreciate everyone’s input. Based upon feedback, we’ve decided to fly back Monday morning. Worried I’ll be more focused on getting to the airport than truly enjoying the game with my daughter. Plus if there is any type of accident or delay, we’d most likely miss our flight. Lets Go Buffalo!
  20. Not good for Sweeney if he’s hurt any length of time. Curious to see what Beane does with the final roster. Addt adds or depth at TE, OT, and CB wouldn’t surprise me. Have to believe he trades someone for draft picks. One area I’m still “slightly concerned” is our return game.
  21. Hopefully they are an all around improved unit this year. Particularly with stopping the run and improved tackling. Honestly, I’ll be surprised if our pass rush improves this year. I’m not counting on the two rookies or AJ to have an immediate impact. If having Star back helps then we really need Oliver and Edmunds to be disrupters and impact players on D. Otherwise I expect our D to be like last year. Overall, I hope we stay healthy.
  22. Looking to bring my daughter to her first game this year. Flying round trip from Atlanta. The last direct flight on Sunday is at 6:41 pm. Is it realistic to make it to the airport in time after the game or would we need to leave the game early? My spouse doesn’t want her to miss school. We’d most likely have a rental car. Any help would be much appreciated.
  23. I think you mean OT Hart. The guy is a turnstile right now.
  24. The NFL needs to revamp the unnecessary roughness penalty. Blasting a QB with helmet to helmet contact or diving at knees should certainly be 15 yard penalties. Slightly touching the helmet or tackling a QB below the knees when the DL is on their knees should not be a penalty let alone a 15 yard penalty IMO.
  25. For me it was finally last year when we were expected to sweep the Patriots and did! Those demons have been exorcised and now the mentality has shifted to expecting to win. This team is so hungry and believes winning the Super Bowl is a reality!
