Anyone else have love for the idea of less prime time games this year? I'm thinking the NFL world writing off the Bills as old news is better all around, enough of this Super Bowl favorite talk. In any case we at least all have to be hoping for no more Thanksgiving games after the luck of the last two.

I'm with you on this. Those Boba Fett episodes that were basically Mandalorian episodes should have at the very least been the first few episodes of season 3 so it maybe wouldn't have been as cheap as we'd have seen them apart for a little bit. Something I didn't consider until reading about it recently is how this situation feels to people who didn't watch Boba Fett. Evidently there was quite a backlash after the trailer dropped from this group thinking wtf as season 2 ended with this big send off and then they see them immediately back together in the trailer? That would have annoyed me too.

I remember the turnovers but not that it was AVP playing that game. Probably for the best that my memory of that game is cloudy, and the whole Greg Williams era for that matter. 😀

The way the schedule is lining up it seems like there might be a decent chance that Miami @ NYJ could be win and in, lose and out, for both of those teams. If it plays out that way I can definitely see that one being flexed into a solo slot.

Went from Buffalo to San Francisco in 2001 for a SNF football game and was treated to a 35-0 beat down. The good old Rob Johnson years.

Right, it is going to be interesting how they come up with good games for the Saturday slots that also won't affect any of the teams playing on Sunday. Seems to me that might be tough to work out as all the teams fighting for a spot, or even positioning, can affect each other.

According to this: https://506sports.com/nfl.php?yr=2022&wk=18 There will be 2 Saturday games week 18 this year so OP may be correct.

Problem right now is the Bills don't have the horses to gain yardage on the ground in an obvious run situation. Decent running teams can still get a push and gain a couple yards in this situation so run, run on 1st and 2nd can burn some clock and put them in a decent 3rd down situation where another run or short pass can get it done. When the Bills go run, run in obvious run situations they are typically looking at 3rd and 10 or more. I assume Dorsey knows this as well and is trying to find other ways to get first downs and burn clock. That short pass to Singletary was a good call as you should be able to assume that is a high % chance of completion, but unfortunately he dropped it.

I used a free trial of YouTube Tv for this in the past. FuboTv is also an option with a free 7 day trial.

Let's see if we can figure it out.... PA = 209 9 Wins + 3 Losess = 12 Games 209 / 12 = 17.41 17.41 + 15 points for sarcastic hyperbole = 32.41 You were spot on. 😁😈

A Christmas Story Christmas Vacation Scrooged I'm surprised no one has put Love Actually on here yet.... Not that I'm arguing for it in any way but it seems to make a lot of lists.

I was down on him at the time when he missed that too but after the way things played out I think it might have worked out in the Bills favor. If Detroit was down 4 at the end of that game they would have obviously went for it on 4th down and the way their offense was moving the ball that day I'm not sure the Bills could have stopped them from scoring a TD being in 4 down mode.

From what I understand those were the 5 games that were earmarked when the schedule first came out in the spring to be eligible for the Saturday flex. In other words out of those 5 games 3 would be chosen to fill 3 spots on Saturday, an early afternoon, late afternoon, and a night game. The Sunday flex is outside of this so I'm not sure how that would work in regards to those 5 games. I assume if the Bills game does go to Sunday night then 3 of those remaining 4 would be the games for Saturday but I guess we will have to wait and see on that for sure.

It absolutely is a Christmas movie. As is Die Hard 2 and Gremlins.

We know that three of these five are getting flexed to Saturday: Mia@Buf Bal@Cle Ind@Min Atl@NO NYG@Was It is hard to imagine that Mia@Buf will be one of the two not chosen for that, not to mention the possibility of a Sunday night flex as well. Not sure about only having 5 days in between being a factor.... Teams play on Sunday and then Thursday all season long.

Hahaha, that getting sucked out of the building effect was crazy. However those days are gone now. They put a physical roof on the building a couple of years ago.

Not sure about this math. 15/34 = .441. Still not great but a lot closer to .500 which makes sense to me for these kinds of games as it is usually just one good/bad play that decides it.

This is exactly what I have been doing this season using FanDuel. Usually bet 5-15$ a weekend on a parlay of winners and/or stat prop bets. I don't make them too long on the odds, usually just 3 to 5 different things that usually pays in the +500 - +800 range. I kind of look at it the same as throwing 10 bucks at quickdraw at the bar now and then but this is more fun. FanDuel has been running a promo every week where if you bet 5$ or more on a 3 leg same game parlay for the TNF game you will get a 5$ free bet back if it loses. That has gotten me more interested in TNF than I have been in a long time so I guess the NFL partnership has worked on me.

So the 6-1 in 2020 doesn't count? Let me guess... no crowds somehow makes that irrelevant? Don't mean to single you out as it seems like a lot of the board and media types are going on and on about this 0-7 in close games thing for the last 24 hours or so and I am having a hard time understanding why Josh and/or McD's years prior to 21 for some reason don't count.

Haha. Almost, but this is the magical one. And as a funny side not it actually took me a minute to find this. Very surprised to see how many Josh Allen prayer candles actually exist.😀

Didn't watch the game at home so did not light the Josh Allen prayer candle 3 minutes before kick-off.

Why is the "McD can't win close games" argument only considering 2021 and yesterday? With a look back through 2017, albeit a quick one, looks to me like McD is .500 in 1 score games which would make sense seeing a lot of those types of games are determined by one bounce going your way or not.

She has her own show now on FanDuel TV called Up and Adams. Not really sure exactly what FanDuel TV is but you can watch her show on youtube. I have watched a few of them over the past couple weeks. They are about 45 minutes long and she has had a lot of NFL player and coach guests. I've enjoyed them enough to continue to give them views.

I'll be interested to hear what you find out. I am assuming you can't cast just because this offering, at least for the local broadcast, sounds exactly like what the NFL app used to give you for free in previous seasons up through last year. I used it on my tablet sometimes to have a second game going and I recall early on trying to cast and it being disabled.
