19 years. My entire adult life. It’s finally over!

Go Bills!!!!!!

All it took was a UNCW alum taking the reigns as GM to make that happen! :)

It was really cool that Bills fans donated to Andy Dalton's charity for helping them get in. $57,000 and counting, in $17 increments at a time (for the 17 seasons they've waited for the playoffs). Really cool.

Congrats buddy. I'll be pulling for you guys in the postseason.

Wait a minute, you are not going to root for the Pats? haha

The donations to Andy's foundation is really cool.

I'll make my $17 donation tomorrow when I get home from work!



That's awesome.

I'm rooting for them all to fall into a cavernous hole in the earth never to be seen or heard from again.

I would be too if i were you and 08. It's tough to have your teams dominated for so long.

Bears play in Buffalo next year. I'm interested to see when the game will be scheduled; I have family up there so it would be cool to catch a game in Buffalo.

Clarification: all it took was a W&M grad to take the reins as head coach to make it happen! Sean McDermott is the man!

Beane and McDermott clearly had a great relationship during their 6 years together in Carolina and that bond allowed them to get right to work. Theirs is a lesser version of what CG and I enjoy.

Ah that's right! CAA coach and exec team working together to make the Bills relevant again. Very nice.

I know Chicago isn't the warmest of cities, but I've been to games in Buffalo anywhere from September through December. You don't want any part of a December game. Trust me. LOL

But, Orchard Park is a great place to catch a game. The pre game atmosphere is amazing, and the Bills Mafia will welcome you with open arms to tailgating and the stadium with open arms. The Mafia gets rowdy, but they're a lovable bunch.

Whenever it is, hope you enjoy it!

I've seen videos, any best tailgate lists that don't have Buffalo as #1 are just flat out a joke.

I think this Article is jibberish. I'm currently listening to the author on the radio on a Boston station and they are just grilling him and he's got nothing.

I read it this morning. As you all know, I'm a Bills fan.

I also think it's a bunch of BS. There MIGHT be small amounts of frustrations, but you'll find that in any locker room. Seems like the author used a lot of speculation. ESPN is struggling. Then they drop this. They better hope there's some evidence to back it all up.

The only part that i think has something to it is about the Garapalo injury and Brady's trainer.

Guerrero, Brady's "Trainer" is definitely suspect and quite possibly could be putting unnecessary strain on the organization. However, the article just seems speculative at best based on already widely known information.

Maybe, but he DID interview a bunch of people in the organization.

And the timing of the Jimmy G trade certainly did seem to jive with what the article is saying. If they were always planning to deal him, that trade should have happened in the previous offseason OR the next offseason. Belichick, whose timing for making trades always seems to make sense and be the right move at the right time, unloaded a future franchise QB for just an early 2nd. And this despite the team repeatedly offering Jimmy G pretty robust contract extensions.

It was CLEAR he wasn't re-signing, so while i do think they could have gotten more why would you just let him walk and get nothing?

In terms of his interviewing people within the organization, you know how that place works, no one talks. The interview n WEEI Friday last about 20 minutes, they grilled him, and he had very little to say when they backed him into multiple corners. ESPN is struggling, this is a sad attempt to get more clicks

That would make him a liar, and a fraudulent journalist.

Sorry, but the WEEI version isn't trustworthy either. Rather than coming out and calling the guy a liar that you're insinuating he is, Kraft and co.'s response was that he basically stretched the truth. That's not him just making stuff up, that's him taking some information from sources and extrapolating off of it.

I agree it's not all true, but you can't just turn the blinders on to anything that isn't the Boston radio station version.

dude, they had the author on. I'm not taking what a Boston radio station is saying as gospel. I'm taking how the Author of said article reacted to the questions. For the record, journalists make $hit up all the time.

Bears hire Matt Nagy as their next head coach. Earlier today I was reading a report that said the job was going to be offered to McDaniels; I for one am glad that we passed on him. His time in Denver went south in a hurry. Nagy has a really interesting story, and he was almost out of football completely before joining Andy Reid in Philly. He's another CAA guy, which seems to have been the missing piece in Buffalo, so I am hopeful he's the guy and that he can put together a great staff...keeping Fangio would be a nice start. I think Chicago is closer to being a playoff contender than people think.
