    A 49ers victory would probably require two or more takeaways, a great day in the red zone and a big play or two from McCaffrey in the passing game. It's hardly impossible to rule out that scenario, but there would be more paths toward Buffalo winning the game. I picked the Bills over the 49ers before the season, so I'll stick with that now. Prediction: Bills 27, 49ers 17.

     

    Link to the whole article which is behind ESPN's paywall - https://www.espn.com/nfl/insider/story/_/id/35419552/nfl-playoff-bracket-predictions-2023-scores-winners-game-super-bowl-pick

  2. "When Diggs was on the field, the Bills gained 432 yards and averaged an outstanding 7.2 yards per play. Diggs played on all but 11 snaps for the Bills. On those 11 plays, the Bills gained only 11 yards — a horrible average of one yard per play."

     

    Whoa.

     

    There could be some factors - which Joe Buscaglia really didn't delve into in the article - he just pointed out the average yards per play when Diggs is not on the field.  The article points out that there aren't other skill players who "strikes fear into the opponent. "

    The OP doesnt realize that detroit has had a really good year offensively. Based on Detroit's defensive record, the bills should have 40 points....

     

    The Lions, Bills, and Chiefs are the only teams with 5 games with 30 or more points.

    TL;DR - Bills COO says no to the Dome and discusses many of the issues related to moving the Bills home game to Detroit because of the big snow event.

     

    Paging Mods...if this should be merged into the Stadium thread, please do so.

    DETROIT — For the second time in eight years, the Buffalo Bills needed to escape a harsh Western New York snowstorm for cozier confines in, of all locales, Ford Field.

    This isn’t the type of winter destination that insists visitors pack sunblock and flip-flops, but Ford Field offers shelter not found in Western New York or other Rust Belt markets.

    As such, the Motor City is a beacon for desperate NFL wayfarers.

    I think Leslie Frazier knows how to put 8 guys in the box.  Packers were slowly drinking poison with their offensive play calling and he was letting them.

    They were down by 14 points throughout most of the game and they kept running the ball.  It seemed to me that the Bills' coaching staff was OK with them running out the clock for us.  

  6. I keep thinking back to the Bills/Chiefs game and how Tyreek Hill killed us...and am worried a little about him, especially given the performance he had statistically against the Ravens, who are usually pretty good defensively.  Then I watched this play in particular a few times and am relieved that there's no way either of our rookie CBs will be in man-to-man against him with zero safety help.

    So the accusations are horrid, but it's not clear that Araiza is being accused of rape?

     

     

    Note that while described as "a minor", the alleged victim was then 17 years old, which is above the age of consent anywhere, and what Araiza did is not being described as "rape", but as "having sex with".

     

    I'm going to let this one play out.

    In California, it is illegal for someone 18 or older to have sex with someone younger than 18, even if the sex is consensual. This is considered statutory rape under state law. Statutory rape laws are based on the assumption that minors are incapable of giving informed consent to sexual activities.

    Only 1 hour drive for me to get there, plus can't make it to any other games home or away so our only chance to see our guys.

    My son always goes when the Bills play in Charlotte pre-season or regular.  I've never been - but my wife got on a thing this year she wanted to go for her bday weekend.  I honestly would have been fine to not go but just kept my mouth shut.  This will be a record preseason for me - 4 camp practices plus a preseason game

    Anyone going to the game? I am front row Bills side at like the 10-15 yard line.

    Yep, too close of a drive not to, since the Bills won’t be anywhere close to me rest of the year; I’m taking my oldest 2 kids who are 9 & 7, for their first in person game experience, which for an away preseason game should be pretty tame. first row of Sec. 510.

    He's just crushing virtually every aspect of his job .

    Whether it's preparation, game management, keeping guys focused, whatever, he's owning it all.

    His guys don't get distracted by weird stuff (i.e. officiating, weather, turnovers, etc) and just keep executing instead.

    He gooses Daboll when he needs to.

    He works clocks like a 20 year vet.

    Everybody trusts everybody else.

    He makes sure Beane understands exactly what he needs.

    The team is always getting better.

    He makes Leslie Frazier an even better coach.

    He's a viable Coach of the Year candidate moving forward.

     

     

     

    I heard that Chuck Norris is afraid of McD
