    I doubt the line in Vegas will move.

    I have seen some mention of playing the game in Toronto. One problem with doing that is not having enough time to coordinate it with immigration officials of both countries.

    will be televised in local areas for sure.

    Rest of country probably won't see it.

    it most definitely will move

    the bills were favored by 4 and now it'll be under 3
    and the over/under was 39. That will go up.

    It's not as if they are playing in Beiruit. Canada and the US have immigration pre-clearance in both Toronto and NY with no need for immigration/customs at the destination.

    Honestly I would like to see it at a neutral non NFL site like the Carrier Dome.

    That really sucks for the Bills if they truly lose two home games. They have one of the best home field advantages in the league.

    The Bills have a fan base in Toronto and supposedly are trying to build on it. The immigration stuff is something I read. You do now need a passport to enter Canada.

    If a football game gets played in Detroit and there's no one there to watch it does anybody care?

    How many people in NY are even tuning in for Jets vs Buffalo?

    NFL Network maybe? Probably not. ESPN would not like that.

    Why don't they play it in Syracuse at the carrier dome? That seems more fair for buffalo and less travel for both teams? The powers at be at the done say they are free for Monday and would love to host but the NFL hasn't contacted them....

    Why you ask when it makes more sense??? The answer is $$$$$$$ and playing it there takes money out of NFL owner Hands

    That's a little dopey too. Has anyone in Syracuse reached out to the NFL? How about a little proactivity?

    The Carrier dome is setup right now for hockey and not able to be converted over that quick. They should play at FedEx or Heinz imo.

    You say they can't change it over that quick.
    They say they can play football there Monday.
    Who should we believe?

    Detroit has a sexy stadium... Vick and Harvin should be zooming out there in the warm indoors. Only thing in the way is the timing which is the new big issue i guess. Probably wont be televised nationally ... only the jets have to deal with these kind of issues lol
