  1. Honestly? Who cares.  We get the paper only because it was already paid for, otherwise I wouldn’t get it or the digital version.

     

    Print media is dead. Don’t really enjoy reading news that is up to 48 hours old. Thoughtful commentary?  Nope.  Get better integration with podcasts, websites and, believe it or not, message boards.  Ya want your ads?  Black Friday ads? On the web, or at the door of supermarkets and most retailers. As much as I have old memories of reading the comics or game recaps, it’s just not what it used to be.

    I delivered the Buffalo News in the early 90s. In 1992, I delivered in a blizzard and still got complaint calls into the news that their paper was late. 


    Used to deliver in an apartment complex mid to late 80’s.  Great to stay warm while delivering! Absolutely was a bunch of people that would complain in foul weather, even when I was ready to deliver the paper and the News didn’t get it out until late.

    if we get the storm expected, i dont see how we play Monday either.

    As we all know, its not like the day after a snowstorm is guaranteed to be better than the day it occurs.
    The roads will still be snow covered, stadium full of snow, Gonna be tough for everyone to reach the place after the expected comes.

    I dont disagree with their decision necessarily, if anything they likely shouldve moved the game UP to today yesterday, knowing this was a possibility

    Oh well, GO BILLS


    Hence the 4:30 kickoff giving them until 12:30 to clean the place up for the lots to open.

    And the chiefs will have an extra day of rest if we play them again. It’s just comical. These guys approved of a new outdoor stadium in Buffalo New York and then postpone games when weather hits. Just put a damn roof on it then. I understand the game would be a mess, but it just seems ridiculous.   And they’re ok with playing the game in kc at -30 wind chill with fans there?? Yeah ok


    Moving the game was not just about people sitting in the stands.  It was more about fans getting to and leaving the game and don’t forget about Bill’s employees having to travel in foul weather - ticket people, security, concessions.

     

    Dome or not, probably would be postponed.

    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


    Hope it doesn’t increase the number of steelers fans at the game.  They are the worst to deal with in our stadium.

  5. I’d expect a change in date/time to be done early this morning if happening.  Kinda hope for Monday 1:00, but 4:00 seems to be the earmarked time.

     

    I’ve done a lot of stupid stuff in my life when it comes to winter weather.  Put myself at risk, and others.  Both at a young age and pretty recently.  Not looking forward to going tomorrow.  May not go if it’s as bad as some forecasts.  I know I could drive and be just fine tailgating and sitting in the stands.  It’s the other idiots causing accidents, getting stuck that concerns me.

    Please point to where is the aging at exactly?

     

    Their top corner who looks to be a stand out is/was a rookie 

     

    Christian Barmore their D-end who came on the last few years was drafted in 21

     

    Kevion white another D-end

    Was drafted in 2023

     

    Jabril peppers 28yr

     

    Kyle Dugger strong Stafety drafted 2020(27yr)

     

    Josh Uche LB. Drafted 20. (25 yes  old)

     

     

     

    Not going to go through the whole roster, that would be wild, but went through some noticeably names on defense just now.

     


    LB and Dline have some older guys.

     

    Just not a team that is on the cusp of being good/great. Personally I’d rather take a job with a team that is closer to being good.

     

    And who is the GM? Gotta be with a guy you can mesh with.

     

    Have they lined up Vrabel and someone he trusts?  Who knows.  After what happened in Tennessee, I’m sure he doesn’t want that again.

    I would think you get the qb before the wr but that is just me.   Guys like cousins and Wilson will be available but also a good draft for qb. Of course it’s always a crap shoot


    I agree. But if a “generational” WR like Harrison is on the board? Very difficult not to want to wrap up top WR for many years to come.
