Totally worth not winning the money to see Jerry cursing in his suite.
My poor Dad is a die hard cowboys fan. He is just a wreck today. He should know better than to believe anything has changed.

Still a lot of snow in the bleachers in Buffalo...if things start going south, especially with the officiating, a few snowballs could be launched

The field looks excellent. With blue skies this won’t be a traditional snow game.

Yeah with basically ideal field conditions this game trends closer to Buffalo -20. Steelers gonna need a mega Josh implosion or tons of trick plays to keep this close.

Let's go Steelers! Since the Bills are basically Toronto's team, I love to see them lose almost as much as the Leafs. Okay not that much but it's still enjoyable.

No catch, the refs got the call right on the field.

Edit: ref, you suck!

This would have been more fun as a snow game.

Edit: I have no idea what a catch is in the NFL because I feel like I've seen that not called a catch for no making a football move more than not.

If the Steelers go through we get stuck with another caca game next week with them involved. A 40+ point loss is the goal here, Steelers humiliation (tons of fun!) + maximizing next week's AFC matchups = Best Case Ontario.

That’s another fumble recovery for the Bills

Edit. Or not.

Yeah that one was a more clear fumble than the first one IMO. No idea how it would be deemed out of bounds.

Who knows in the NFL.

Alright let's do the right thing here, call the game now so there's no chance Josh gets hurt, do not rob us of the Chiefs-Bills game we all want.

I certainly hope this Chiefs-Bills game can be half as epic as the last playoff one, can't wait.

I can't tell you how much my heart appreciates this game as a Bills fan so far after how the rest of the season has gone.

I was yelling for Josh to slide there and then he does that.

I need the Steelers to get to like 10 here. When they changed days, I switched to Bill's +10, and also went over 37.5. But at 35 the Bill's might stop scoring and rest guys.
