Training Camp Practice Tueday, August 10 (10 am)
Motorin' replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I hear ya. I always enjoy the first pre-season game. It's the first chance to see rookies and new additions to the team in action. The week between the 3rd preseason game and Game 1 was always the worst wait, imo. -

MORE. GIVE ME MORE!!! Can it be Friday already? -
This season is starting to have a Once in a Lifetime Feeling to it!

Josh always had incredible accuracy on the most difficult throws that only a few people can make. He struggled on consistently hitting simple throws that didn't require ripping it. You can most certainly coach consistency. When you look at stats without the context, you may miss the forrest for the trees.

She's going to make exclusive videos and write articles for the Bills website. And probably be a regular guest in One Bills Live. She's basically a colleague of Chris Brown and Maddy Glabb now. Doesn't mean she can't do both...

Yeah, it looks like we blitzed 7, including a safety and the nickel cb and they hit a quick out screen with blockers setup to spring Crowder... Levi's off screen on the opposite side of the field.

Doubtful on concessions. More likely the Bills will agree to a long term lease somewhere between what the Vikings pay 8.5 mil / year +3% each year for 20 years, or what the 49ers pay to Santa Clara, 25mil / yr for 40 years. And commit to a massive poison pill on breaking the lease to ensure the Bills stay long term in return for a favorable deduction in lease fees. It wouldn't make sense for PSE to agree to a lease that's more than if they just took out the mortgage themselves, unless the state/ county assumes ownership. If PSE owns the stadium, the lease + property taxes should turn a profit for the state/ county, but be less than the mortgage + property taxes. If the state / county create an independent land trust that owns and operates the stadium, they could charge more on the lease than the cost of the mortgage and turn a profit, in return for a tax free agreement on the stadium i.e. if PSE doesn't own it there's no property taxes to pay. The big question then comes down to the cost of upkeep.

Feliciano's Presser and tip to the Offense
Motorin' replied to foreboding's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
idk man, I thought Mongo was a bit out of shape last season, which was understandable given the nature of his injury. I don't think his play would necessarily suffer from being a bit quicker and in better overall shape. -
How many people don't like Allen's new deal?
Motorin' replied to mjd1001's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Exactly, how the hell are we going to pick in the top 5 of the draft over the next 8 years? Talking about ruining everything!!! 😂 -
The valuation is one thing, but more important to the details of the financing the stadium is operating income. I'm assuming these figures are based on 2020 pandemic year with no fans in the seats? I had read that the operating income for the Bills basically doubled from 40M to 75M under the Pegulas. But the article says the Bills had -17M of operating income last year... I'm sure that's already changed with nearly every game sold out... These gotta be pandemic, no fans in the seats totals for 2020.

List of Bills QBs during the Desolation
Motorin' replied to foreboding's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Never took a snap in a regular season game for the Bills. Just looked up his stats, he attempted 2 passes in the NFL for WASH. He was 1 of 2 for 7 yards in his NFL career. -
List of Bills QBs during the Desolation
Motorin' replied to foreboding's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is a good list to help us appreciate what we have now! I did notice that it is only a list of starters though. It definitely misses some sad moments in Bills history. 1997 Billy Joe Hobert (2) 2001 Travis Brown (1) 2003 Travis Brown (3) 2004 Shane Matthews (3) 2010 Levi Brown (1) 2011 Tyler Thigpen (3) 2012 Tyler Thigpen (4) 2015 Matt Cassel - Started (1) 2016 Cardale Jones (1) -
While it's a drop in the bucket, the 25M per year is revenue for the city that paid for a portion of the stadium. This is the highest lease fee in the NFL for a publicly owned stadium. The Vikings pay 8.5M per year plus 3% interest each year. If the Bills stadium is going to be publicly funded, I'd hope the lease fee falls somewhere between the two.

Public vs Private Financing for All NFL Teams

The city of Santa Clara created the Santa Clara Stadium Authority to construct and own the 49ers stadium. It is publicly owned. https://www.santaclaraca.gov/our-city/santa-clara-stadium-authority/leases-and-agreements The 9ers pay over 2M per month in rent to the Stadium Authority, and are locked in a 40 year lease at 25M per year.
