Looks nice. Maybe out of the budget but I'm surprised they didn't opt for a retractable roof because of their location and the ability to host a Super Bowl.

It's hilarious that the three newest stadiums built before Buffalo (LA, LV, TEN) are in warm weather spots, but have domes. Obviously concert and other event considerations there, but good on Buffalo wanting to maintain that homefield advantage.

Buffalo is just looking at the current climate situation and making a smart decision. So were LA/LV/TEN.

In 10 years Buffalo will be tropical and won't even need a dome. And in 10 years any LA/LV/TEN will be uninhabitable during most months so a dome is 100% necessary to prevent playing games in 135F heat.

This is what I was told the answer was by a group that will be involved in the construction.

It's smart. With the hotel situation in Buffalo, zero chance they'd ever get a Super Bowl no matter what.

Just think of all the Canadians that could stay in Hamilton and make the 1.5 hour drive to the big game game.

That will be interesting IMO.

I do feel like Toney might have not been a fit in New York's scheme. I do feel like Mahomes and Reid will be able to draw up some plays to get him the ball in the open field.

Interesting, wide receiver doesn't strike me as a problem area. I'd be looking to add edge rushers...but I think this is Mecole Hardman's last year and they likely feel that Toney can become his replacement while offering another piece they can use at some point this year.

I think Right Tackle and Edge Rusher are bigger area's of need.

Maybe it's just me, but it seems like muffed punts are way up this year.

Marcus Peters has to be one of the most overrated players in the league.

Buffalo would get a SB just like Minneapolis did.

Vegas needed a dome if they want to hold anything else there in the late spring/summer/early fall when it's 40c...just like Phoenix.

Hate that decision. I'm glad teams go for it way more than they would have 10+ years ago, but it's almost swung too much the other way now. At least when in chip shot field goal range. It's the 2nd quarter and you're only down 7, take the points.
