The Buffalo Bills have wrapped up their preseason and are getting ready for the long-awaited season opener against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday, September 8th.

As the excitement and anxiety of the season ramp up, many are looking way ahead to the playoffs and the possibility if a Super Bowl run. If that is you and you want to see the game in person, you better book a hotel room now.

USA Today recently reported that the rooms in and around the Phoenix area are either booked or getting to outrageous prices.

Many hotels in metro Phoenix, including Hilton, Marriott and IHG properties, are sold out for the weekend of Feb. 10-12, plus the days after the game, according to a check of hotel reservations websites.

Things are getting real now as the Buffalo Bills have cut their roster down to 53 players. One of the most surprising of which is quarterback Matt Barkley. The veteran qb seemed to fit well here in Buffalo and one of the most recent memories is of Barkley punting in place of Matt Araiza who had been released by the team.
