What Bills starting spots are locked down?
"We talk a lot about position battles across the Buffalo Bills roster. But what about the spots that are locked up?

Brandon cites Pegula-Effect for season tix record
"Buffalo Bills team president Russ Brandon left no doubt about it today. The biggest reason the organization has sold more season tickets than ever before is the effect the ownership of Terry and Kim Pegula have had since purchasing the team last year, and the collective relief its loyal fans now feel about the franchise staying in Western New York.“As I said at the time of the sale, the collective anvil that had been on the back of all of our shoulders, we were able to put that in Lake Erie. And that played a huge role in today’s announcement,” Brandon said at a press conference held inside the field house at One Bills Drive Monday morning."
