Bills fans have donated over $22,000 to the Andy and Jordan Dalton Foundation since yesterday. That is a great way to show gratitude and will help lots of local families.

Awesome
I take back everything I ever said about Buffalo fans being royal scumbags. Clearly, I was very wrong

Nice response. We should have knocked Baltimore out of the playoffs years ago.

Classy move. I am going to go rob the Myron Cope foundation.

I wonder how Taylor feels about Dalton getting all the credit and glory around town for being the only qb to get Buffalo in the playoffs in 17 years. They are STILL celebrating Dalton in Buffalo.
I personally never saw a qb of another team so embraced and adopted like this before. It's touching, but also a little weird given many fans in Cinci want him gone.
He'll get a street, a holiday, and a wing sauce named after him per the major (per their message board so you can take that for what it's worth).

Wouldn't it be funny if the Bills trade for Dalton next year? It would be a pretty big improvement over what they have right now. Bills fans would probably love it.

You must give credit to the Bills Mafia, they are a PASSIONATE fan base (with some being a bit crazy )
Oh well congrats to them on making the playoffs and supporting such a good cause in the process.
I only wish they weren't playing the Jaguars in the Wild Card round..............it would be even sweeter if they knocked out the Squealers!

The internet is amazing and while it's a silly reason to help kids and families that need it, it's a reason that worked - I think it's nearly $200K at this point, if not over. Maybe it gave the foundation some additional exposure beyond that and got some other donations. That basically gets the foundation through most of 2018, before Dalton's usual fundraising. Truly incredible.

Classy. Bills fans are starting to donate to one of Boyd's charities, too. Who'd have thought the first feel-good story of the year could avalanche like this?
