It sure is an awesome place to see a game and being outside the city has given them space for tailgating around it. My concern is with the new stadium slated to open in 2026. 62k seating capacity compared to the current 72k. Tickets are expensive now so I can only imagine what it will cost to see a game in the future. I paid $55 CAD for two beers at the Jacksonville game this year. I know I know should have had a few more before entering but with Highmark only accepting plastic (like other stadiums) I'm at the mercy of Visas currency exchange rate and I wanted a couple beers.

Anyways my point is lets enjoy the atmosphere while it exists. Squeezing fans for as much as possible could kill the environment that the average fan has created there.

I had season tickets from 2007 to 2020 and I seen the prices going up every year.

Now they have PSL's to buy plus the tickets.

Thats crazy for beer but they have you hostage

I stopped drinking 35 years ago so I sat sober through the bad football and playoff drought

We got a nice leather double recliner with cup holders and a console

We(GF and I) now plunk ourselves down in front of our 55" LED and enjoy the game with no interruptions and what ever food and drinks we want that day

I miss it once in a while but then I remember all the affiliated BS
No more border no more line ups no more people getting up blocking the view

From the rumor mill....Jadaveon Clowney to the Bills for a late round pick.

The Carolina connection may strike again

Beane 19 years there McD was DC there Dan Morgan was an AGM in Buffalo under Beane.

My son lives in Seattle so I'm heading up tomorrow morning and taking him to the game. Going to be an ugly day weather wise. Protecting the ball will be key. Looking for big days from Cook and Davis. Go Bills!

Season is over for Miami, in October. Which is much different as of late, when their season is over in December. Oh well.

Nice game to go and see.

TOP 38.5 to 21.5 total domination.

The Bills got some bounces and then imposed their will on the Hawks

They were so discombobulated they were fighting with each other.

Dion and Brown went over to straighten Hall out after the RTP on JA17.

When they got there Reed had him by the facemask screaming at him

Spence and Dion just walked away

Now we need to put our collective feet over the Dolphins blow hole and end their season.

They(Fins) had to win that game and they choked

Barring a total collapse this the Bills division for the 5th year in a row

Now the Fins are coming to Buffalo to face a really confident Bills team that just walked into Seattle and kicked them in the Gonads

The Bills open as 6.5 point faves

The last time the Dolphins won in Buffalo was 12/24/2016 by a score of 34 to 31 in OT

Sexy Rexy had been fired in year two and the Bills were in year 17 of the Playoff Drought.

Everything would change that January when McD was hired

They Fins have not won in Buffalo since then.

So how was seeing a game in Seattle? They're usually pretty loud but didn't have much to cheer for yesterday. Their goal line offense was embarrassing and a big turning point in favour of the Bills.

Two players had me ROTFLMAO yesterday and thankfully they are not on my team.

Tyrique Stevenson a DB on the Bears was taunting the crowd in Washington while JD was running around trying to launch the long bomb final play.

He then regains consciousness and tries to get back in the play running in front of the pile and tipping the game winning pass to the Commanders WR Brown...total fail.


The Colts Anthony Richardson taps ot of the game because he was tired.

I was watching this game and thought if he is hurt just stay down so you don't burn the play clock.

Nope just as I thought this idiot wasn't even hurt and admitted it after the game in his presser.

But thats not all he also says his passing efficiency does not matter because he is the best running QB in the NFL then adds well maybe not Lamar but everyone else.

This guy needs to stay away from the mic he is a totally unaware idiot.

Thankfully JA17 never had that crappy attitude.

If I were a Colts fan I would want him benched for old man Falco.

BTW out of 225 QBs with 2 or more seasons since the year 2000 AR5 ranks 222nd in completion percentage.

Only ahead of these all stars Jamarcus Russell JB Losman and Tim Tebow.

He might learn that the NFL stands for Not For Long
