Added the rest of the models.

I took a look and didn't see last seasons data.

It would have to be a MUCH weaker opponent. The reason for the big jump this week is because NE is the much stronger team. The stats in general get better as the season goes on so what you are saying is of course somewhat true about their meaningfulness. But I have found that they tend to be much more accurate, and worth considering, the second half of the season. Not just that last couple of weeks.

And it's a prime time monday night game.

Gone according to this. http://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/new-orleans-saints-fire-defensive-coordinator-rob-ryan/ar-BBn4zEn?ocid=ansmsnsports11

SportsClubStats disagrees with you. If the Bills win it thinks the Bills playoffs chances go up from 41.6% to 61.5%

But if they do manage to shock the NFL world, SportsClubStats probability of making the playoffs goes from 41.6% to 61.5% Besides, almost half the people here do! http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/182809-week-11-mnf-patriots-game-preparation-bills-75/

538 has it as an 84% probability that the cheaters win with an Elo point spread of 11.5. Almost half the people who responded to the poll think the Bills will win. Gotta love the optimism

According to SportsClubStats ... The biggest impact is the one they won!

The NFL made a boo-boo.

On 538, the Bills jumped 21 Elo points after the win last night and they show as a 9-7 probable (but just barely) record now.

No reason to get nervous. Sit back and enjoy the game.

That's why God invented more than one television!

That's how I read it as well, 60.8% actually But it also thinks 7-9 is slightly more likely than 9-7.

Thanks to whatever MOD updated my post for ESPN Updated ESPN and added Amos. All in now except for 1 ESPN straggler.

I'm surprised at the outrage and shock when a person who plays an extraordinarily violent sport for a living at a very high level, and has been raised practically from birth to be super aggressive and violent in order to be good at said sport, does something very violent off of the playing field.

Not intimate knowledge of the game, intimate knowledge of what all the players (fan duel and draftkings players) were doing. They had access to all of the data so they could see trends and create lineups to take advantage of that. So not football knowledge, insider knowledge. A HUGE advantage.

I actually changed my vote to should not be allowed. The recent insider betting issue made me reconsider. Way too easy for private entities to cheat. Would need to be regulated and on the up and up for me to want it to be legal.

I suspect the general public already sees the Bills as an also-ran. A win maybe changes some minds, and a loss puts also-ran in the minds of most Bills fans too I suspect.

NYS needs their big cut, just like the lottery and horse racing.

Added CBS and Cortana.

Everyone knows the Bills are wearing red because it is a closer match for the Clemson football helmet Rex is going to wear on the sideline. [And Terry needs more money from merch sales]
