More than any other opponents fans at home games so far this year imo You could tell they were making noise on TV. They traveled well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nothing new in Buffalo. Like I said in another thread, for fanbases as passionate as Sabres and Bills fans are, they love to let visiting fans take over their stadiums. So much for home field advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You rotate guys often so you don’t have to during pivotal moments. Schwartz had a good feel for it while he was here. Rex was terrible at it. Haven’t noticed it one way or another with McD, which generally means he’s timing it properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes many of the travelling fans do not live in WNY area but some of the locals used to buy extra tickets to sell to visiting fans since they usually paid more to pay for their tickets. I wonder how their business is doing now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on your observation and comment, I assume you have season tickets for the Bills and/or Sabres and go to all the games you have tickets for?

Conlan58 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Mmm, yes. The floor here is made out of floor. Rest easy Bills fans. After getting gashed for over 200 yards, our coaches know that probably shouldnt happen again if they want to be succesful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frez Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) You want to witness a real defensive line? Take a look at what the SF 49ers are packing out west! That Joey Bosa is a man amoung boys on the field. The Bills are a couple still a few players away from being the team we really want.

ALF Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Jordan Howard says Eagles wore down Bills, 'they didn't really want to tackle us "We were able to wear the defense down," Howard said, via Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philadelphia.

Williams was the reason the Bills were so stout against the run all those years. I'll take Sam or Ted Washington over the garbage we have right now.

No I don't have tickets for either team. I do go to as many Sabres games as I can. It has always bugged me when season ticket holders re-sell their tickets to recoup their money. The point of being a season ticket holder is cause you're a fan of the team not to make money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I heard on TV there was more noise when Bills were on offense than on defense. I agree with what it sounded like on TV but it must have to do with placement of mics around stadium because there were not nearly as many Eagles fans as Bills fans in Tennessee. 1 hour ago, Azucho98 said: I'll take Sam or Ted Washington over the garbage we have right now. I agree but Ted Washington was as dominate a Dline player as we have seen. That is like saying I would prefer Thurman to what we have in the backfield now.

I was remember, geez, why is a RB outrunning every player on our D? We never came back after that and the outcome would’ve been different if it didn’t happen. Also, of note, we don’t have such a dagger in our backfield. Maybe we mostly keep that dagger on the bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally have never sold my Bills season tickets, but have given many to charity. Disagree with your statement about the "point" of season tickets. They are private property that the owner can do with as he/she pleases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do we give the offense if over 300 yards passing? A participation trophy. 3 hours ago, Jrb1979 said: No I don't have tickets for either team. I do go to as many Sabres games as I can.
