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!!! 😂 -
Forbes 2021 NFL franchise values
Motorin' replied to Walking Tall's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
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.

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.

Public vs Private Financing for All NFL Teams
Motorin' replied to Irv's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Unless the lease terms are profitable... The 49ers pay 25 million per year over 40 years. The Vikings pay 8.5M + 3% interest per year over 30 years. -

lol, I didn't think I'd be googling interest rates for commercial new construction projects this morning. -
Public vs Private Financing for All NFL Teams
Motorin' replied to Irv's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
San Francisco is locked into 40 year lease at 25M per year, while the public subsidized 114M. So it will literally be over 800M in profit over 40 years. I don't know if tax breaks came from the deal though/ -

These numbers are meaningless without an additional column that shows any lease totals that publicly funded stadiums receive in turn.
