  1. It’s not speculation…it’s a safe bet. must like streaming fees go up. It’s all about profit margins. it stabilizes innthe market between cable and streaming of a rate everyone offers…it’s ECON 101
  2. Check back in a few years when each device has a fee or they limit it to say just 3 devices. Any additional ones cost a fee. thrn you need to add together your other fees for say espn+ or Disney+ and so on.
  3. this is why I laugh at cord cutters who think they are going to save money and get a deal. thr cost of cable TV or streaming online totprrey TV channels sre going to eventual cost the same. It becomes a matter of promotional deals and switching. even in streaming, just like cable you don’t really have choices. You have to take blocks of stations, even if you only want one channel. on cable, other than old school national network stations, I might regularly watch content on 10 non sports stations
  4. go the full UDFA route…..or collect the entire 6th round
  5. Wasnt he involved in a non-trivial loss to the raiders……
  6. Nope…..maybe Alzheimer’s and dementia research/ treatments/cures could lead to a possible treatment.
  7. Breaking news— LA and NY teams share stadiums. Those teams will get a few more outside sunday games because of that the initial schedule will have max of 5 prime time games. because of Monday night flexing you might see more “sexier games” in December to have multiple flexing options. would the jacksonville game go to London and jacksonville play consecutive weeks in Europe?
  8. On history channel they have had a serious of shows on history of Food That Built America which airs on Sunday at 8 pm ET IIRC the first Sunday in March (5th) they are schedule to have an episode on the Chicken Wings
  9. After he heals…in the spring he will likely go through extensive testing on his heart to see if the heart is healed or some heart ailment with beating or impacts. i think he doesn’t return to play until 2024.
  10. They paid off the refs…. they had staff steal signals and calls…. in general…if you can go 5-2 in your division you have a >95% chance of making the playoffs. Since the 8 division format, only snout 4-5 teams missed it after going 5-1. Detroit this year was the latest. This percentage could have been higher if they didn’t do the final game be divisional game where team might be 4-1 in division, locked in their seed, so they rest everyone. you need to make the right personnel decisions on who to sign/ keep and who goes. if you are a very good team, many vets will sign for less to get to the super bowl
  11. Not for Thursday opener. both games will be high profile prime time or solo 425 games. Denver/ vegas at London Dallas at buffalo could be an opening Sunday night game
  12. We were 4-3 before when Jaraun got fired. If Gailey just focused on off and not touch the d the bills woukd have made the playoffs. Gailey decided to do nepotism and hire his3-4 buddy.
  13. A golf sw8ng and a football throw have nothing in common. You don’t mofve your elbows when you swing.
  14. I saw a better one. Girl is too large to upload its from nyc_buildings ” how are we going to explain this to all the other buildings? They all look up to you”
  15. Giants were missing half of its starting defense in thst game. The jets defense is actually pretty good. then you have home/ road crowd differences which tend to affect young teams.
  16. you grade the players for the talent…not what they did for us. Giants took him because the knew more about him.
  17. youare mixing things around here. buffalo is a 4-3 team. In a design of a roster you have 8 DL on the roster You want fresh guys out there so you rotate players. If you are not gassing your players are going to be gassed by the 4th. The DL runs much more than thr OL because they are chasing players on offense as for drafting—- it’s much much harder to get a (1) good pass rushing DE , (2) a very good OT, (3) a QB , (4) am impact LB, and (5) a top CB, after the 1st round. You can find some players sfter the 1st but they have flaws/ weaknesses that you might be able to work on. you can get decent WRs, TEs, RBs in the 3rd-6th rounds. Look over draft history of receivers/ RBs being drafted between 1st vs those 3rd or later.
  18. They are not special. They played 2 week divisions.in nfc north and slc south they were 7-1 in one score games. they got lions and jags ehrn they weren’t playing their best. Their non common were saints, cards, and Steelers.
  19. Therr was another thread on this titled second half of packers game.
  20. i think scheduling will not put KC-BUF-CIN games in late devember. this year had buffalo best minnesota or jets or dolphins and they were two games up on Cincy thry woukd have rested thrir starters knowing they could face them in the playoffs so why show the playbook. i expect the final 7 games of the season to be 3 division games road game at chargers, at eagles ( early december ) hosting jacksonville , den/ raiders non London game jacksonville an chargers game could be one of those flex Saturday games
  21. as I said…..they can’t block. They have some say and requests. In inter league play so cbs getting Dallas was limited so they would to get one of their games. Division rivalry games usually had one for league network and ine on national prime time. It was rare to have both in primetime in the schedule. If it occurred it was due to flexing. FOX wants a DH to lead into the Sunday World Series game both networks will get DH during the November ratings month. FOX might request an early season single game week to align with MLS scheduling where most markets get 1 pm early and 430 soccer game. Those with late game get a different 130 pm game stadium and hotel availability is a factor in scheduling. When buffalo hosted the world junior hockey tourney from Dec 25-Jan 5 they ask for no home games during that period. The first time thry hosted, the nfl missed the message. They had to change the schedule last minute. The 2nd time buffalo was off. lsince Seattle mariners made the playoffs last year, it will be interesting to see the October schedule looks like for them because the stadiums are next to each other and they share parking lots. Don’t be surprised to see in the rough 4 week baseball playoffs they are scheduled at hom on Thursday or Monday during WS time. Thry have an off week thrn, and they play 2 road games. If thry schedule a home game thrn it’s a div game like with AZ or SF thst thry can flip sites with a later game. if you recall with Brady- manning games they were generally rotated among cbs, nbc, and espn. You will see the same with buf-kc games….fox got it for thurs, nbc got it, then cbs 425. Next year it’s likely not on cbs. what complicates this is the unbinding of teams to networks.
  22. Drsft decision are heavily dependent on roster moves made. if Edmonds walks snd thry don’t sign a LB thrn thry coukd drsft one in the1st.
  23. CBS can’t protect anything. the schedulers do listen to network preferences y understanding is that next year there will no longer be league affiliation to networks in programming. thr national slots sre Monday night thursday night Sunday night and national 435pm slots the Bills in London— will this be an NFL/ streaming 930am game or a 1 pm game. the national games would be… Hosting Dallas hosting giants at KC at Cincy At Philadelphia some divisional games if Brady is playing for Bucs orRaiders— expect that game to be on national TV e ause of that, I think denver at buffalo will be in London. Brady at Buffalo will be their home opener ( Monday night) KC game will be MNF Cincy will be on sunday division game on thursday giants- bills will be a later season Sunday night game onr of Dallas/ eagles vs Buffalo will be solo 425 game and the other on Sunday night. divisional game for de ember Saturday flexing or it could be an Xmas Monday game followed by MNF similar to this past season.
