    Probably true if you live in the area but for fans that live out of state that doesn’t work. Trying to purchase 3 tickets against the Steelers in the 100 level is super expensive. Was really wanting to go that weekend as my daughter has an extended weekend. Being in ATL may have to see them play on the road against Miami.

    Book flights, hotels, or whatever you need to attend the game. But, wait to actually purchase the tickets. I do it all the time. I’ve already committed to going to the game, but don’t actually buy tickets until week of the game or day of the game.

    I still feel the NFL Schedule makers don't respect us enough to give us anymore than one Sunday Night game. We only got one last year and if these leaks are right we will get the opening Thursday game but if the Chiefs game is 4:25 on CBS, then where is the SNF game? The one MNF game they announced so far is overlapped by another game while the our game is on and is going to take viewership away from the game. What's the reason for that? And in week 2? The NFL just chose a random week to put 2 MNF games on and make them overlap each other? the NFL also seems to have the "just put them on Thanksgiving" mentality like their trying to save the other primetime games for other teams

    Packers at Bills or Bills at Bengals (or even Bills-Patriots) could still possibly get SNF.  

    I have a 2nd Bills schedule inside rumor/tip (UPDATE: NOW CONFIRMED!)

    I just hope they don't get any Thursday games on Prime or whatever its called. I have DTV and it would suck if I couldn't get the game.


    If there is no free trial option at time of the game, you can subscribe to just Prime Video for $9/mo and cancel anytime. Yeah, it’s $9 more than if it were on a “normal” network but it’s definitely accessible if you have somewhat decent internet.

    New Bills stadium deal is bad for taxpayers, according to Yahoo!

    I, for one, am grateful the Bills are staying for another 30+ years. Having an NFL team is a big deal. Many don’t realize it, until it’s gone. Just ask Cleveland, Houston, LA, Baltimore, and St. Louis. 
     

    Having lived in a market that’s bigger than Buffalo for most of my life, and having no NFL team nearby, it’s amazing having the Bills. When I knew I was moving to WNY over 10 years ago, I became a Bills fan overnight and it was  awesome taking my 9 year old son to the New England playoff game this past January. 
     

    Now, as for this deal. Yeah, it’s not great for taxpayers. However, I’m not convinced the Pegulas couldn’t have made out better moving the franchise somewhere else. Buffalo isn’t a huge market. You lose the Bills and you lose an NFL team for good. So, for many WNYers it’s a fantastic deal to be able to keep their 60+ year old beloved team.

     

    The Pegulas played a good hand and they had the negotiating power as owners of an NFL franchise in a small market. They’re not running a charity. Most billionaires would play it a similar way.

     

    Tax dollars have been wasted on worse.

    Mac Jones vs Zach Wilson

    Rodgers was groomed in a good situation.  Zach wilson is getting thrown to the wolves on a team with holes all over the place that couldve hit home runs at a ton of other positions with the number 2 overall pick.  We did something similar with Josh I feel like but Josh works so hard on his game in the offseason and I just dont get that same vibe from Wilson.  Thats based on nothing though so maybe he'll prove me wrong lol

    Huge BYU fan here. Also, big Bills fan here in WNY. One thing that many (even some BYU fans) don’t know is that Zach is an absolute football junkie. He eats, sleeps, and breathes football. He doesn’t have a ton of hobbies . . . he’s a home-body and you won’t find him hanging out with tons of friends. He will be studying the playbook, watching film, working on his footwork, and making throws and he won’t get tired of doing those things. 

     

    The windfall of money won’t be an issue with him like it might be for some 20 year old kids. You won’t see him blowing through his money . . . he’s actually a low-maintenance kid but does have a ton of confidence.

     

    Outside of football and dealing with the speed of the NFL, some things that might be a challenge for him could be the shock factor of the big market and the huge spotlight. He’s already having to deal with NY media talking about his mom and her physical appearance. He was even asked about it on KFAN in NY and his response showed that he was clearly bothered by it and didn’t want to deal with it. So, he will have to deal with a lot of different press that he’s not used to dealing with. 
     

    Now, will he be a bust? Very well could be, but I guarantee you that you will never hear anyone in the Jets organization say Zach didn’t give 100% or that he came unprepared to practice. 
     

    Go Bills!
