    Preseason starts next month. Not sure what magic potion you think will clear things up by then where allowing a stadium of people to sit, stand and jump around yelling and screaming around each other for hours would be responsible decision making. 

    I would expect that they will have the potential to change this week by week, or even month by month. I hope the Bills are forced to refund me for the preseason games, and i can start going in either september or october.

    If season ticket holders opt out for this year an the team ends up having playoff games here, would those that opt out due to Covid have an opportunity to purchase those seats if the situation related to Covid changes?

    This is a good point. Wouldnt it be better, to just opt-in, and just sell some of the earlier games to other people until you feel comfortable?

    And what does it mean to be exempt from bail reform? That doesn’t make any sense.

    Currently in new york, people dont need to post bail after getting arrested. The individuals who ran over the officers, had bail set over $100,000. I hadnt hear of anybody in new york needing to post bail in long time. I can assume the charges against them, do not apply to the bail reform set up a couple years ago.

    I don’t see anyone protesting or outraged over the 3 black people who ran over 2 troopers and a BPD Officer the other day. No big deal since they were white cops who were attacked. We also don’t care that the scumbags had a stolen gun in their possession. Where is all the celebrity outrage over that? 

    Because they were arrested and charged. And were exempt from bail reform. Thats why people arent outraged. The protests are about officers being violent or murdering people, and never being held accountable.

     

    That being said.

     

    This old man was causing trouble all night long, saying the protests were "fun." And protesting the curfew. He was given plenty of verbal requests from officers prior to the 30 second video we all saw to go home, and he refused. Im only upset about the false report the police filed.

    The Titans said they used the Bills' defense that game as a blueprint to beat the Ravens in the playoffs. If Allen could have even been average that day, the Bills win easily. 

    Im pretty sure, the texans used the same defensive game plan that the ravens had, against us, in the playoff game.

  6. Its not necessarily just a crap shoot. You can try your hardest to know your potential players, prior to drafting, but only the player themselves knows what motivates them. Playing at an elite college level, to get to the NFL is one thing, but now that you are there, does the player still have the motivation to be successful there. You are giving a 22 or 23 year old, who never made more then minimum wage, a 7 or 8 figure contract. I have to think your internal movitivation is going to be challenged. 

  7. I'm not even sure if its possible to sync up John Murphy's broadcast with the television these days. The radio streaming feed is bound to be behind by a minute or two. I am not about to invest in radio stereo equipment in this day and age. Plus, is wgr synced up with the spectrum feed, the digital antenna feed, or a satelite feed? There's no way all of these are all going to be at the same exact part of the broadcast.

    I seriously hate these silly things. It’s football. I don’t want the kick off to go away. I don’t want the extra point to go away. I don’t want the onside kick to go away. Play Football. You want to be safer? Fine. I have no issue with intelligent solutions towards the goals of safety. Don’t change the actual plays in the game please.

    Thats exactly what the 4th and 15 is, more actual football. The onside kick is basically impossible, and even if you did recover it, its nothing but a lucky bounce.

    Not a fan. The general argument for those in favor of the rule seems to be that the current probability of recovering an onside kick is too low.  The thing is, I honestly think it should be low.  Scoring a TD and then following that by getting the ball back on the ensuing kickoff should take a miracle IMO.

    4th and 15 is a low probabilty. Thats why teams never attempt them, except in the most desperate of circumstances.

    First off, there is almost no chance the NFL gives them permission to show the games.

     

    ...and if by some miracle they do get to show the games, there is no way the drive-in is allowing any of the above...outside of alcohol you bring in. 

    The last time they did it, in 2014, you were able to bring in Alcohol. It was fun, but the game started at 4:05, so you really couldnt see anything until about 4:30. Other then that, i would totally do it again. I also realized that my basic car audio system, sounded better then my home tv.

    The NFL will figure "something" out for ambient noise. There's no way they can't. I'm fine with no fans, but you have to have crowd noise of some variety.

    When i watched german soccer on saturday, the echos in the stadium created plenty of background noise. I still think we will be back in the stadium at some point during the season.

    Are you allowed to buy? Even though I am a Bills fan I am also a Jets STH. I have my payments charged to my credit card over 4 months. The first payment I was charged but the last 2 months I received an e-mail from the Jets saying they were suspending payments to my account.  The Bills might not take anyone's money right now given the times. A co-worker of mine is also a Giants STH and he said the Giants are doing the same thing.

    Hmmm, i wouldnt know about that. My friend and I both agreed it was best to pay for our seasons in full, before our wives changed their minds haha. Obviously, Bills tickets are much cheaper then giants or jets tickets. The OP stated he was already talking to a rep, so i think the bills must still be taking new ticket sales.

  12. This year is the perfect year to buy. While I'm an eternal optimist that we will be ok come the fall, you will have your seats waiting for you in 2021 no matter what.

     

    Unfortunately, there really aren't many perks aside from being able to go to the games. Thats really all i need. I have a feeling StubHub prices will be high this year, so go ahead and buy!

     

    The best incentive, is you will only pay about $4 in a convenience fee for your entire season ticket package. As opposed to paying $10-$15 in fees per ticket for individual games.

  13. I have a hard time seeing us in september or october being able to have 20,000 fans in the stands, but not 70,000. I really think it is either going to be no fans in the stadium, no fans in the bars, no family gatherings, or all this will be over finally by then.

     

    How is a bar filled with fans better then a stadium filled with fans? We are social distancing now to allow our doctors and scientists have a chance to learn about the virus, while having hospitals able to care for patients.

     

    There is no way the whole season will be played with no fans, unless there is a massive second wave that happens.

     

    I really think we are going to learn so much about this virus by then, and we have a good chance at attending games in a packed stadium.

    It's exciting that they scored so many primetime games. At the same time, they're in the spotlight now and I really like when they fly under the radar. McDermott's been hyping them as underdogs for three years now, I wonder what his message is when they're the favorites. 

    Everybody likes the story of young luke skywalker flying his little x-wing fighter to destroy the death star. And thats fun and all. But he still had to become a jedi. What is exciting now is to watch luke skywalker develop into a power jedi. So lets watch the bills develop into a dominate NFL team and win a super bowl that way. Its still the same team, but they are growing up. Enjoy it!
