Spoke to a Bills source tonight, told me there are still several thousand tickets left for Sundays game. Not even close to selling out. It will be the 3rd Bills blackout in their last 4 home games.

I'll have to do the research; not even sure the last time that's happened.

Poor product = blackouts. We'll be lucky to see any home games on TV next season I fear.

Maybe some fans happened to catch the last couple times these two teams played each other.

It turns out there are some advantages to living outside of the blackout radius. The only thing I have to worry about is the local Fox affiliate not airing home games versus an NFC opponent. Well, that and my wife wanting to have an open house for the church on a Sunday afternoon.

No surprise here. If not for it being the Steelers and their fans we wouldn't have sold out a home game after the first 3 home games of the season.

As soon as I saw the home schedule and predicted this as a 4 win team it wasn't hard to determine we would have trouble selling out these games. What really surprised me was when we didn't even sell out the Jaguars game early in the season. Them are usually guaranteed sellouts no matter who we play or what our record is. After that it wasn't hard to see that we wouldn't sell out any other game the rest of the season except for Pittsburgh.

This would be pretty bad for Browns fans in the area. It will be hard for the Bills to live this one down. Probably one of the worst games to not sell out.

The reaction when the first blackout occured a few years ago to this one is like night and day. Wanna see a neglected and disenfranchise fan base? I present to you Bills fans.

The game will be on in Sec 137... Instead of pissing and moaning about a blackout...go to the game.

I know some of you are out of town, so that makes it more than a little tough. The ones that are in town and looking to catch the game from the couch...boo ****ing hoo.

It's not that simple and it's ignorant to think it is.

Browns - Bills not sold out? Shocking.

With the weather forecast for this Sunday I'll probably be just staying home and watching the game over the internet.

everyone knows buffalo will sell out if the team wins. it's not even a question. the fact that they sold 70 thousand tickets and not 73 thousand is a ******* miracle.

My friends and I were really hoping to get some tickets and make it out there for this weekends game. But its fallen to the last minute and with this storm coming through, I don't see us making the short trip from Rochester to the Ralph

I was there last year for the Brownies game and def not going to put myself through that again. That was brutal. Worst football ever. A friend offered me a free ticket and i said no way.
