‘”This season, so far, we’ve had a lot of home games which for our stores, it helps tremendously because you have so many out-of-towners coming in. We’ve really become one of the hot spots for people stopping in.

So the hot start has helped us,” said Mroz in an interview with WBEN.’

John Murphy: Bills’ issues came to light in loss to Patriots
‘Last season, they were plus-24 on the turnover-takeaway chart. They never had to get used to turning it over. But there’s more than that. The Patriots stopped the Bills running attack and forced them to pass more than run. That’s not the way the 2025 Bills play.’
This date in Bills stadium history: Oct. 6
‘1996 — Bills 16, Colts 13 (OT) — Attendance at Rich Stadium was 79,405 as Todd Collins passed for 309 yards with a touchdown to Andre Reed and engineered a fourth quarter comeback to win his second consecutive start in place of an injured Jim Kelly. The second-year QB drove the Bills 58 yards in the last two minutes of regulation to set up Steve Christie’s tying field goal with 15 seconds left, and Christie kicked the winner from 39 yards out on Buffalo’s second possession of overtime. Thurman Thomas had 190 yards from scrimmage (111 receiving), and The Bills sacked Jim Harbaugh six times, with Bryce Paul and Gabe Northern each getting two. Indianapolis came into the game unbeaten and nearly rallied to stay that way by scoring 13 points in the second half to take the lead with under nine minutes remaining. The Bills improved to 4-1 with three wins by a field goal. “The other one was a rout,” Marv Levy said. “We won by seven points.”’

‘This was one press conference Diggs was more than happy to attend. It had to be personally satisfying for him, but he did not let on about that at all. Diggs took the high road with all topics.
