My buddy flew down from Toronto for the Monday night game this past week and we were talking about potentially having a team in Toronto...he goes to university with the son of one of the main guys in charge of pushing for relocation. He said it's almost certain it'll happen, 90%, all they need to do is "cross the t's and dot the i's"

So, what should they be called? In all honesty...I know we'll get the "Maple Syrups", or the "Beavers", or what not...

how about...

Toronto Huskies (isn't intimidating, but it fits nicely)

Toronto Towers (CN Tower, lineman=towers, etc.)

Bills won't be leaving Buffalo. They love their bills unlike Houston and the Oilers.

tell that to Browns fans, or Dodgers, or Giants, or Colts, or Northstars, or Nordiques. I'm not saying they won't get another team eventually..but I could see it happening. TO has been pushing for NFL since the 70s and with nearly 7 million in the market (4th largest in North America) supporting it would not be the problem.

I wouldn't be surprised if they stayed, but from what everyone is saying they are as good as gone...my uncle calls me almost weekly to talk about the bills and such...but w/ Goodell being from upstate, he'd push to keep them there...but in the end, $$$ talks.

What proof do you have, at all, that they will stay? Buffalonians would sure like to hear it!

You could of at least gave a name ;-)

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
