I was at a game in those days against the Jets. Kelly threw 3 bombs, and at the end of the first quarter we were ahead 21-0. That part was really exciting and fun. The rest of the game was a boring affair as everyone in the building knew who the winner was going to be that day. Works for me, I hope that is the outcome of the first quarter, I'll take it every time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've literally taken my kids up. I've taken my non-drinking non-swearing, church going mother.... we've tailgated in numerous areas. we don't get crazy and we've never had it ruined for us. and i can speak for a large group that have had this discussion that aren't thrilled about the idea of changing it to just another urban stadium experience. what you're "not getting" is that in my experience i'm not the "few". i think you may projecting your feelings as what the masses feel. maybe its no me that's in the minority. If anything I think it’s much more split than what you’re implying.... food for thought. no worries though man. go bills. Completely agree. Unless I walk over to an area where fans are getting a bit too crazy, the tailgating experience in most of the stadiums lots is perfectly fine for most families I think. You will see a little drinking and some swearing (God forbid!), but the crazy antics are pretty confined. And of course, like virtually every stadium, there will be a few morons (some drunk, some just morons all the time) loudly disturbing others. It's a very good teaching lesson for younger fans, IMO. They will encounter rude ####### throughout their lives. Teach them how not to be one, how to avoid confrontations and how to properly deal with situation if/when avoidance is impossible 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOUSE Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 By Ryan Talbot | rtalbot@nyup.com The winless Miami Dolphins are coming to town and the Buffalo Bills had an extra week to prepare for the tanking team. Some fans believe in the “Any Given Sunday” mantra, but it should not apply to this Dolphins team. This is not a star studded “Who’s Who” roster in Miami. No, looking up and down this roster should cause football fans to say, “Who’s that?!" https://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/2019/10/buffalo-bills-will-score-40-plus-on-miami-dolphins-6-predictions-for-week-7.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Daboll's ideal would be to have 2 really good quality pass catching TE, so I don't think he would agree that it was 1) a knee jerk reaction 2) expendable.

Still have the future Mr. Pegula. It’s Knee jerk! I tell ya! Agree on Lee Smith's blocking, but the few times they've thrown to him it's a mixed bag. And Smith comes with a cost - costly false start and PF penalties. Like I said, I believe Daboll's ideal is to have two really good pass catching TE. If you're thinking "knee jerk", they did sign Kroft in the FA period well before the draft. I think the move fits the prototype Beane strategy for positions he decides are really important like OL: 1) sign one or more FA who have asterisks - injury, were backups but showed flashes. Think Morse, Nsekhe 2) draft a couple guys. Think Ford 3) bring in some lower tier or limited FA - that would be Lee Smith 4) hope you get a couple guys who can get it done out of the mix 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
