That’s like an oxymoron. You can’t get infected if your vaccinated….right?
I don't know what you're talking about or why you're replying to me with this.
I think you're trying to get in a "gotcha" with this but I'm going to go ahead and answer your question. Yes, you can be infected even if you're vaccinated, this is true of almost all vaccines. That being said, the effects of being infected after being vaccinated are generally much less severe and your viral load is generally significantly reduced.
I'm not trying to argue on the coronavirus or the efficacy of the vaccine like you are. All I've stated in this thread is that there are consequences to your actions, and if you choose to be unvaccinated, then I hope you enjoy the Bills games at home instead of being in the stadium, as that's the consequence of your decision.

You can own your beliefs and still fight back against what is perceived by me to be unjust and unscientific.
I have zero issue with stadiums, venues requiring me to show them a recent negative test. That’s is, by far, the safest way to operate.
Using Bills fandom and stadium access as a cudgel by politicians to increase vaccinations via punitive measures is not something I’m ok with.
You disagree, but I’m glad the silent part is being said out loud in this thread.
Clearly we're going to go in circles about this, but I completely disagree with this being "a cudgel by politicians to increase vaccinations via punitive measures". This isn't punitive. You're not being punished as you're not entitled to attend a football game. It's as ridiculous as saying that because you're required to wear pants to the stadium it's a punitive measure against nudists.

Why do you feel Highmark shouldn’t allow a negative test?I just had covid 2 weeks ago. I’m likely less of a threat to you than a vaccinated person. They could knowingly, or unknowingly, be sitting next to you with an active covid infection.
You seem to believe this is ok as Highmark is being used as a cudgel by politicians to force the vaccine on people as denied entry to the stadium the punitive measure to do so.
Trying to discuss this as politely as possible to not get dinged, but the non-option of a negative test reveals true intentions… those intentions aren’t safety of fans, they simply are a device to attempt increased vaccination of the public.
I don't have any opinion about it. I don't work for Erie county or the Bills, I'm reacting to the reality of situation.
The reality is that you need to be vaccinated now to attend Bills games. Nobody is forcing anyone to get vaccinated, no one is required to go to a Bills game. If you choose not to be vaccinated, the consequence of your action is that you can't attend a Bills game. Choices have consequences, if you can't live with the consequences, then make a different choice. The county isn't strong arming you, nobody is being forced, and the victim complex frankly is kind of insulting. I know I already said that but I feel like it needs to be emphasized.
If anything, I think the county is being too lenient letting individuals who have had a single shot into the game until Oct. 31st, but that's the compromise they need to make with those who are indignant about regulations.
I believe everyone who can reasonably be vaccinated should be, full stop. The people complaining about this clearly don't. Instead of whining and acting like a victim, own your decision. You are making a sacrifice based on your strongly held beliefs right? Own it.- 11

Lockouts like this are the only thing that is going to drive vaccination up.
They do need a pop up vaccination site close
It works too, and I support it. Everyone has a choice, but choices have consequences, period.

There's a lot of hot hot takes in this thread, looks like your personal choices have consequences, one of which is not being able to going to a Bills game in person.
This is a team and business complying with local regulations. Direct your (unjustified) anger to the county, it's absurd to be mad at the Bills here.

I think the Extra Point show has been great.
I'm out of market, Listening to WGR reminds me of home and helps to keep me connected to Buffalo. There's a lot of fluff, but honestly I'm okay with most of the time. It's background noise while I work.

I didn't notice Obada out there at all, I'm curious what his snap count was.
-
I think you're spot on with Dawkins, it seems obvious to me that he hasn't regained his strength/conditioning, which honestly is understandable.
What's not understandable (to me anyways) is that the coaching staff have so little trust in Spencer Brown or any veteran to take his place. I understand Brown is a project, but if this is the product we're throwing out there right now, then how bad exactly is our tackle depth?

The scheme worked josh just had a bad game...idk if that makes people feel better or worse 🤣 there were open receivers all game that either dropped the ball or were overthrown or he just straight up didn't see
Agreed that Allen didn't have a good game, but the O-Line had a worse game and that confuses things a bit.
Not apologizing for Allen at all, he needs to be better, but adding some context to his poor performance.
-
Today was one of the worst performance's our offensive line has put up in years. They looked atrocious. The guards especially looked bad. Yeah Pittsburgh has a great front 7, that doesn't excuse the domination.
Allen definitely regressed under all that pressure. His ball placement was bad. His pocket presence (when there was a pocket) was bad. The deep ball was 2019 level.
I'm hoping this was the smack in the mouth they needed to figure things out.
I predict they'll go 16-1 now. Haha.

I always make wings on opening day, even though the games start at 7AM here. It's a beer with breakfast kind of vibe.

Isn't Keith Butler 65 years old?
I dont think Josh is afraid of an old man.
Perhaps we can send Butler this?
Josh would be an awesome TE if he wasn't such an amazing QB.

You're probably right but we definitely won't know until we see the Dline hold up vs Najee. He's 6'2, 230 and Ben runs a nice play action which will keep us guessing on pass vs run. Getting a big lead will help keep them passing in the 2nd half.
Ben doesn't like running play action, in fact they are one of the lowest percentage play action teams in the league. -

To assume a 3rd round pick is an immediate upgrade is, well, hubris.
I'd like to bring a high pick to compete.

Oh you mean the UDFA that’s been an effective starting CB2 on a playoff team two years in a row?
Effective but obviously upgradable. I'm not even trying to hate on Wallace, I think he's a serviceable zone CB for the Bills, but to deny that he's an obvious spot for an upgrade is just hubris.

Which one? Or are we just going to say any?
Ifeatu Melifonwu had probably the best shot in my opinion.

Except on goalline and short yardage and who will probably have at least a handful of touchdowns. Who did you want that was going to start day one as a late 3rd round pick?
I'd say a CB had a pretty good shot of taking a starting job away from a UDFA or 7th rounder.

Maybe the Bills try and trade Oliver while he still has draft stock upside and keep Zimmer?
Because the way it stands now, Oliver is not an every down player, he's not been a difference maker.
I don't want to be rude, but I don't know how you can possibly believe that. Just because Zimmer had one flashy play last season doesn't mean he's even close to on par with Oliver.
-
After this season's performance I don't know how you can really justify keeping him, especially when you've got Stills and Davis waiting in the wings and you can save something like 8 million by offloading him. That's money that can be used to sign an impact player; I loved John Brown last season but the games where he had a significant impact were too sporadic.
Who knows what we have in Hodgins as well.

This whole thing with Watson upset about having no say in the GM pick is dumb. I would never let a player have that type of influence. I don't really care what they promised him. That team needs to be rebuilt from the bad decisions by O'Brien
I agree with you but they should have never promised him influence to begin with. If you want to instill trust and keep a good relationship with your players then be upfront and honest. They're adults.

AJ Brown is really good and Tannehill is efficient. The offense can put up points quickly and then let Henry pound it out. They are dangerous.
I'm not arguing that they aren't. All playoff teams are dangerous. I'm just confident that the Bills will probably win even if that's who we get in the playoffs, they're just playing at another level.

Saying their entire offense is Henry is silly.
Their WRs are decent, I still don't think they are good enough to give us fits at this point in the season. If we have to rely on Norman, sure, but with Tre White in I feel pretty good about it.
-
The Titans entire offense is Derrick Henry. The Bills are excellent at taking away a team's best option.
I'm not worried at all with how we're playing.

Highmark Stadium now requiring vaccination for entry
in The Stadium Wall

According to the release, you're fine with just your vaccination card so long as you physically have it. A photo will not work.
