  1. In PA Online sports betting is now legal. You can bet continuously on the game during the game. There are bets for each drive result. The moneyline and spreads update through out. These game time wagers are quite a bit of fun. It even makes a titans-jags game exciting. I imagine that this point its a small group of people who do this. But if you enjoy this sort of thing, you can follow 5 games at a time at home, while watching the Bills and rooting or betting on them. This may not hurt the live attendance, but it wont help.
  2. Getting rid of Brady would be like superman getting rid of Lex Luther or Batman getting rid of the Joker. Just wouldn't be the same. The villain must remain and be defeated.
  3. /tinfoil hat off/ The other possibility is like every other person watching last nights games he was actually sick of all the penalties. /tinfoilhaton/ I will return to the regularly scheduled conspiracy theory now.
  4. are we fearing the legend of Andy Dalton?
  5. didn't do much better with our entire draft though.
  6. His grandfather (dad's dad) pushed very hard to name Gardner "Beowulf". That would have been epic.
  7. Allen and this kid have such great personalities. Huge bonus for the league of they can become QB stars. Brady and Big Ben have crappy personalities.
  8. Allen, Mahomes, Minshew the new big 3 in the AFC. No others need apply.
  9. Since the game is in Jacksonvillle, I am not sure how important the Nashville weather is. Its always sunny in Philadelphia.
  10. Real question to try understand the parameters of chosen one. Was Joe Flacco the Ravens chosen one after winning the Super Bowl?
  11. I am like the prophet Samuel. I have been sent to you that Josh Allen is the anointed one. / thread
  12. Maybe there should be a mini practice squad game before the real game like JV
  13. I dont think the expectation is for a big run up in tv prices. The NFL demographic is aging rapidly. Ratings are fairly flat overall. Ratings are down in the younger demographics compared to 5 or 10 years ago. None of these supports a huge price increase in tv payments (maybe this is trumped by Amazon and Netflix trying to expand by having a bigger NFL slice) I suspect the speculative dream right now is international franchising. Each of the 32 owners is excited get their share of the 2+ billion dollar franchise fee each for London, Berlin, Madrid, Rome, Tokyo and Beijing someday. Followed by a surge in media values. I am not sure it happens, but I think that is viewed as a big upside for the NFL, and one reason a couple teams have to schlep over to London and down to Mexico City every year.
  14. Lorenzo Carter 255. 6% bigger than Josh. If they were boxers both would be heavyweights. A fair fight. I understand your concern. unless the play is a designed run, it might make sense to tell him "always always always just throw it away" rather than run. But in the event he is on the move, I am not sure I would coach too hard against his instincts.
  15. at 240, most LBs and very few safeties (if any) and no corners outweigh him by 30 pounds. I hold my breath every time Allen has contact. But I think he is more likely to get hurt if he starts doing a lot of things against his instincts. He is just so much fun to watch play.
  16. Young Ben is the outdated version 1.0 bad bad QB. Josh "Jerome Bettis" Allen is the much improved version 2.0 bad bad QB. but he is a running back. they are supposed to run angry. QB are supposed to run scared.
  17. Knowing the system probably is neither here nor there for the fourth string QB. I do think Kyle Sloter is a QB sitting on a practice squad that could someday be an NFL starter. I would get him.
  18. The most annoying thing on the internet is thinking you are following a link to an article, but instead having a video thrust in your face.
  19. I am not arguing. I don't know what it takes. Can you give examples of recent trades other than Khalil Mack where someone gave up a first, and then gave a full market value FA contract to the person targeted? Do you think Ramsey is more valuable than Clowney? (Maybe he is, I don't know, feels like Clowney is the closest comp though)
  20. I don;t think Ramsey helps you beat Mahomes or Brady. Ramsey if very good at what he does. But I don't think he is a difference maker to beating those guys. M. Fitzpatrick in in year 2 of a rookie contract. That makes a huge difference.
