When they’re good, they’re very good.
And when they lay an egg, it smells pretty bad.

remember every team in the league is fighting a man cave with 4K HD cheap food and perfect viewing conditions.
Not exactly.
The revenue from tickets is a pittance of a teams overall profitability. Somewhere around only 7%. The majority comes from the television contracts.
And the home team has to give a big chunk of the ticket revenue to the visiting team.

As I sat beneath the glow and warmth of the club seat heaters today, I thought to myself: “These are great. They should make them available to all seats.”
Then I realized that what I was asking for is essentially a dome.
PS, would love to know how much it costs to heat the outside for 6 hours.

Thats why the multi-stadiums were born in the 70s. It just doesn't work. The cities/taxpayers foot the bill with the team chipping in a bitty portion. But the real onus falls on Tax payer Joe gets who no monetary return, but a quality of life return if he happens to enjoy football. WNY/NY/Erie county can't afford a Allianze/ATT/Mercedes dome. If, er...WHEN buffalo gets a team it will look like Heinze Field or Lincoln Financial or Gillette.
(See Michael Leeds books about this)
The Vikings built this for $1.1 Billion in 2016. That’s $1.3 Billion, accounting for inflation, in 2021.
The Bills budget (from what I recall) is $1.4 Billion.

Accurate. But folks that moved south demand that WNY and the Bills build a dome so they can be comfy. Hypocrisy is comical.
I have found that correlation to be true. The majority of dome’rs that I have spoken to do not live in the area.

I kinda feel like this game reinforces that a dome would be nice.
Thus sayeth my frozen toes.
And empty seats.

The defending SB champs scored 0 against the Saints.
Lets put the NFL into perspective.

He’s not running all over because he enjoys the cool air.

Yep. After the first drive it looked like Allen was going to have a great day through the air. Not sure what has happened since.There has been at least 3 tips, right?

This mess started with Stevenson, I would cut him because he has no vision . The guy gets pops almost all the time
McKenzie is much better back there.

Man Matt Ryan is right on the border of HOF...and showed why there. Just a great QB, even now
Eeek. The bar for the HOF surely is becoming lower.

I would say it also turns some Ls into wins.
So you’re in the exact same place?
Thats your argument?

There was 3 4 Falcons n 2 Bills in the RZ.
He should have thrown that away 10 out of 10 times.
Read what I wrote again.

Taking risks and throwing it to one guy with four defenders around him is different. He made the super hero play, he avoided the sack. Nothing there, you throw it away.
The ball was tipped.
You have absolutely no idea what happens if it isn’t tipped.
How many times have we seen him thread a seemingly impossible needle?
Would you like to take all those plays away? Some W’s turn to L’s if you want to make that change.

That's why you just throw it away. You just have to he smarter because we are now about to be up 14-12, with a best case 14-8.
Then you take away all the TD’s he scores by taking risks like that.
You take the good with the bad.

Singletary breaks one for 20… Daboll goes to him next play.
Allen breaks one for 15 … Daboll goes to him next play.
So predictable.

Here’s a pretty good stat!

That 2007 Patriot team is the greatest team in NFL history.
In a winner-take-all one game matchup, i’d choose them over any other team.
Oh how I enjoyed the Giants beating them. Thankfully it wasn’t a series, because the Patriots would have easily won that.
