The Buffalo Bills will continue to play a regular-season home game in Toronto over the next five seasons.
Stadium negations continue between the Buffalo Bills and various government agencies in Western New York. Will the team renew a lease for Ralph Wilson Stadium with Erie County or could a long rumored new stadium be in the works?
I was at the game Sunday and it really did look like the Buffalo Bills simply gave up in the fourth quarter. One thing that really sticks out in my mind is while waiting to get past security, a Patriots fan yelled, "Who did you beat? Cleveland and KC? Whipity Doo!" I thought, good point. And now the Bills must take on another tough opponent Sunday, The San Francisco 49ers.
Earlier this week the Bills released Brian Moorman, arguably the best punter in the NFL. He had the best statistical season of his career in 2011 when he finished with an average of 48.2 yards per punt. He's been in the Pro Bowl year after year. Moorman is averaging 45.2 yards per punt this season, but his 32.7 net average ranks 30th in the league. Will it hurt against The Patriots?
Even without Freddy Jackson and David Nelson, there is plenty to get excited about in Buffalo.
Heading into Week 2, the Buffalo Bills boast the NFL's No. 1 ranked rushing offense. Buffalo ran for 195 yards on just 26 carries in Week 1 in their losing effort to the NY Jets, averaging a tremendous 7.5 yards per carry.
