Good for you. I have to work. Should we start a tally? The fact of the matter is, more people will have to work on Monday than Sunday.
I was responding to someone saying only government workers and 'bankers' have off for the national holiday - simply not true

Thats what good receivers do
Another one of those "Man I wish the Bills receivers would do that" moments

I hate Miami with the passion of prime Pats*. I want them to get crushed so I can spend a week reading Fin Heaven and drinking their delicious tears of sadness

I feel like the Flacco magic has to end at some point

I'm flabbergasted that anyone here thinks this is a bad thing.
Aside from it just being safer for fans & players - this just doubled our chances of winning. Tomorrow has potential to be even worse conditions than the Pats wind game. Basically, a game of chance.
As for "less rest," it's no different from having a MNF game in the regular season.
Not to mention Thurs night games. The day rest thing doesn't bother me at all - esp when the positives of moving to mon are taken into account. "We lose a day rest!" is the new "We are doomed if the weather is terrible!!"

let’s hope he doesn’t get hit much.
Steve, I’m not aiming my sarcasm at you. I am aiming it at the situation as this is the first I’m reading about.
it is sort of the “guy can still play games but one of the worst case scenarios” thing.
He’s LB. This terrible news on a guy that is technically day to day and has been a starter for most of the season.
It was reported by someone on here that has an inside source on injuries. Taron Johnson played with it his rookie year after the first game until they finally shut him down with 4 games left. Assume they will see how it goes in live action with Dodson - and yes definitely less than ideal for a LB

Douglas and Dodson are questionable.
With a torn labrum Dodson is going to be fighting it for as long as they keep playing - an extra day isn't really going to matter for him - what will matter is how many hits he takes on the shoulder and how often it pops out

Government workers, schools, and bankers get it off. Most people don't.
I'm an enginner and I have it off - as do most other tech companies. And employess at most white collar companies have flexible options for vacation/personal days

Not necessarily. I am already seeing Bills fans I know that are now having to sell their tickets because they can't pull off getting off from work on Monday now. This might also impact traveling fans
Esp travelling fans from Pitt.
If the weather turned out as bad as forecasted I don't think the stadium would have been very full tomorrow regardless.
I get that there are some jobs that don't have felxibiity - but I would think the majority would fall into one of the categories 1) Have the day off national holiday 2) Can take vacation / time off 3) Can leave work early 4) Have an employer that makes some concession to allow attending the game. Like I said - I know ALL jobs don't fit into those, but I would think the majority would. And extra tickets available from those that can't /don't want to go (incl prob a bunch from Pitt now) would be more likely to be scooped up by locals who can attend vs people from Pitt.

I would think this should also increase Bills fan attendance and how full the stadium will be

Time to reschedule when this starts to happen!
Might make it easier to strip naked and cover oneself in feces from the porta-potty ( for those so inclined) The subsequent walk to the new stadium pit might be a bit harder tho

Get the Steelers to travel to Buffalo for a Sunday game before the weather hits. Wait until they are here and the weather forecast is looking very bad. Then change the date to Monday and the poor Steelers are cooped up in a hotel an extra night and half a day while snow plows are cleaning up the mess. All part of the strategy🤣
And they have to stand out in the cold in the middle of the night after the fire alarm is pulled

People always ask architects about this. It really doesn’t work. Codes change. You’d end up wasting a ton of money on foundations, etc, only to find out that they longer ‘calc’ under the new Code. It’s generally easier to build a new independent structure over the top of the old one, like that did in Miami.
I like it. They could retrofilt labatt grain silos around the stadium as foundations for the dome. Labatt Dome at Highmark Stadium

Before or after the earthquake and Mothra sighting?
The locusts could also limit the passing game

Wind, shmind, how will the overhang roof hold up heavy snow?
Ha - I was actually thinking about this. It looks like the overhang at least slopes away from the edges so people shouldn't be crushed by glaciers falling on them - but snow is going to accumulate along the middle line. Wonder how many feet of snow the engineers have factored in for max load 😛

Illness? Hope the virus that hit other teams isn't ripping through the Bills. Just more adversity.
After reading through the posts in this topic, I have canceled my Las Vegas Super Bowl reservations and I'm preparing various Mock drafts lol.
We should tank this game for better draft position

I'm curious to see if the design of the new stadium does in fact keep the wind down inside of the stadium. Cold and some precipitation is one thing, but the insane wind is what really mucks up these games.
It will confuse it, if anything

Think it is as others have said - just getting the kicking ball back, which are different than the regular balls

Not sure if i prefer the miserable mumbling cheating douchebag just go away, or try to chase the record with some other suckered team and fail miserably and further tarnish his cheating legacy

To me Hackett is the lynch pin for Jets offensive failure. It's incredible to me he skated so relatively unscathed this year. Guess we'll see how he does as Rodger's asst next year

Congrats
We've had to wait our whole life for the Bills to win the Super Bowl - hopefully it happens in this little dude's first month of life

On that rollout near the goal line he looked all of his 80 years - but still making plays
