Motorin' Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Just called State Farm Stadium to see how they will be handling tickets. They said only family members are allowed at the Monday Night Bills / 9ers game since there's a game Sunday the day before, and they won't have time to properly prepare / sanitize. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 This is great for us. Inside, perfect weather, easy to pass, and facing a running team without their QB, and the best TE in the league up there with Kelce. Couldn’t be any better for us. Go Bills! Also great fir Bass on any kicks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that fails, alternatives are San Diego, LA, Oakland, and AZ. Why not move the game to Buffalo? I understand its not a home game for the Niner's then, but neither is anywhere that isn't there home stadium. Buffalo already can accommodate a NFL game and is site ready. Besides AZ, the other options in California aren't NFL today and would require some work I'd imagine. Anyone hearing from the Twitterverse this this game gets moved to Buffalo? Just tear down that ugly (Don´s) Wall and come down to Mexico to play it! 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) It can't hurt that the Bills were just there.. They know how the field plays...the lighting, what shoes to wear, the lockerroom setup, the routine from airport-hotel-stadium. Other than the hail mary crap, it should benefit them to be in Arizona and not in an unfamiliar outdoor stadium for MNF. Plus Bass seems to like kicking there.

HardyBoy Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Roof will be closed right? Otherwise gotta think it gets pretty cold at night, even if it will be 8pm/9pm (do they do daylight savings time?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 http://www.gridiron-uniforms.com/GUD/controller/controller.php?action=weekly&year=2020&week=13&league=NFL We will be wearing white again as the 49ers just posted their normal red jerseys for home games. No surprise. Maybe the Bills should go with all white (current or throwback) since white over blue didn't work out so well in this stadium the last time. Scroll ahead to week 14 and the Steelers posted their normal white jerseys with yellow pants road look. Bills will either be in blue or red jerseys for that one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise gotta think it gets pretty cold at night, even if it will be 8pm/9pm (do they do daylight savings time?) Arizona is in the Mountain Time Zone (so it's 2pm currently). They do not go on Daylight Savings. So in the winter they are the same time as the Mountain States. In the summer time they are the same time as the Pacific states (when those states go on daylight savings). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 So when is the last time a road opponent played twice in the same stadium (in same season), that is NOT a full time shared stadium. Somehow the ESPN FPI index has the Bills with a 40% chance to beat SF and the same 40% chance to beat Pittsburgh. Seems odd. I would think Buffalo would be 55% or so to beat SF...

He’s pretty confident in himself. Like Shanahan, this David Lombardi seems quite sure of himself too. No question the Bills D has been challenged at times this year, but by far better QBs than Mullens (or even Garappolo for that matter). In fact, by some of the best QBs in the league. Now, that doesn’t mean SF won’t win or that coaching doesn’t matter, but come on Lombardi. More often than not it comes down to the Jimmys and the Joes. You need the horses in this league to win consistently. Especially at QB. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddo Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 What time is the kickoff in Arizona? There's a 7 hour time difference between there and the UK, and if it's 8pm, that is going to make life difficult to watch the gasme live, as it means it'll start at 3.00 am over here. ;( 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love this. When I hear/see this type of talk, I always think of the “rah-rah” hype them up player. This is a criticism of McDermott AND the roster as a whole, but I don’t just see this as a single person/player’s fault. Here goes nothing: One thing I’ve always been irked by (yet, also respected) is McDermott’s sideline demeanor specifically is response to errors. He is not a fire in your face, cloud up and rain type of coach. This is fine. But if that is the case, there needs to be someone to turn to. A player that McD can rely on or tip his hat to in an effort to bring some passion and heat back into the players. I’d love, just once, to see ANYBODY get pissed off at a lack-luster drive. McD is always so calm, cool and collected and I think that can be reflected in the play and demeanor of the team, especially within the offense at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re correct. That’s not really what I was getting at though. I need to find the quote/article that talks about how he’s probably going to move on from Garoppolo and doesn’t really care all that much who replaces him because he doesn’t think he needs an elite QB to win. Maybe someone can help me out... I know I saw rumblings of it somewhere. Which is fine, but there aren’t many instances of that in the modern NFL. Hopefully he doesn’t let his confidence get the best of him is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this article seems to contradict that point of view: https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/kyle-shanahan-expects-jimmy-garoppolo-to-be-49ers-starting-quarterback-in-2021/ Shanahan: "Jimmy has won a lot of games for us this year. It's a lot harder to win games when he's not here. Just hoping we can get him back." Lynch: "I think the elephant in the room, everyone wants to know about Jimmy," Lynch said on 104.5 FM KNBR Friday. "We're a better football team when he's out there. We win a lot of games when he's out there, we've struggled to win without him. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
