  1. That's why I think it will be the Arizona game that goes to London.
  2. "Foodie"
  3. In a game with a bucket full of big plays, I'm now convinced the Knox whiff was the death nail.
  4. Thanks for this clip...I'm even more depressed. Knox makes this block and JA is at least down to the 30. UGH!
  5. I know all reviews in OT come from the booth, but a Bills timeout here could have had the zebras upstairs look at this play a little more closely. Delay of game can be reviewed.
  6. Look at this season's 8-8 Bears team...12-4 a year before with a relatively soft schedule and a QB on the rise (sound familiar?). The 2020 schedule is a death march compared to this past season. Four trips out west and another to Nashville. Long way to go until September, but going 10-6 next year will be a bit more difficult.
  7. First and ten at the Houston 42 in OT. Failing to gain even 5 or 6 yards here is inexcusable. From then on, the proverbial poop hit a really big fan.
  8. Was actually Jerry Seinfeld...
  9. Three prime timers and a London game vs. Arizona.
  10. The only Christmas album you'll ever need Wasn't the Christmas season until you've seen Valby at the Penny Arcade in Rochester
  11. Yes, and he's the reason I sometimes need to mute Redzone. He's forever trying to do play by play, talking over the other announcers...very annoying. I wish they would just switch to the games and leave it at that.
  12. Unless you're in the Buffalo or Boston market, the game is on NFL Network ONLY. Period. Get a Sling trial or something similar if you're that worried about seeing the game. Improvise, overcome, adapt.
  13. Was Ed Oliver even dressed last night? Don't recall seeing him on the field at all.
  14. Somebody, via tie breakers will win the AFC South, so there is a possibility that there will be three teams for two wildcard spots at 10-6, Buffalo among them. Some are crying, "We beat the Titans, that will knock them out of any tie-breaker with the Bills." Not so fast, my friend. Remember just two years ago when the Bills got in over a Charger team that annihilated Buffalo just a month earlier. That one came down to the fifth tiebreaker I believe. Too much fan bulletin board fodder to decipher, let's see what the NFL puts out officially later this week and just go with that.
  15. I think it actually came down to the fifth tiebreaker, strength of victory. https://www.nfl.com/standings/tiebreakingprocedures I can't recall the exact formula, but we got in on this one, even having been blown out by the Chargers, who finished with the same record.
  16. I grew up in the golden age of toys, 1960s and 70s: GI Joe, Hot Wheels, Aurora slot cars, electric football, table hockey, Marx toys...I had it all. And now I have none of it...
  17. This is the fairly recent practice of "dynamic" pricing. The tickets the Bills have in stock that were $45 yesterday can be $35 today. Secondary sellers set their own price, of course. It'll be a sellout by Sunday...if you're willing to take a chance and wait, the club seats could be a steal by then. I can remember in 1995, buying tickets for a Sunday game on a Saturday afternoon beforehand, with the ticket office having their hard-paper stock in shoe boxes...and you got to pick what was available from the stack the Bills employee had in her hand at the time. Also got to shake hands with John Butler, who just happened to be strolling by.
  18. Actually 1993, but close enough. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/buf/1993.htm Also, many of these Bills were not even ALIVE during our Super Bowl run, so I'm sure "revenge" really isn't on their mind.
  19. ESPN app now has Ravens listed as -5.5.
  20. Rediscovering this great album from 1972
  21. No, but they changed the beginning...it really was the Germans who bombed Pearl Harbor.
  22. 1975 was a weird year...started off 4-0 and lost to the lowly Giants on MNF (which inexplicably wasn't sold out...I vividly recall listening to the game on the radio). Bills also blew a 21-0 lead at home to the Colts, couldn't beat the Fish, sputtered to the finish line and finished 8-6...with OJ leading the league in rushing/rushing TDs. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/buf/1975.htm
