I actually don't think there will be in the nfl, besides the things we have already seen from a handful of players
Guys get paid way too much money, where fixing a game isn't worth the risk or the amount of money you would have to bet would be very noticeable quickly
I think a lower level/mid major college or in the usfl/XFL it's very much on the table and only a matter of time
This is a very basic way of thinking about organized gambling and fixing.
You think a boxer going down in the 10th for a briefcase of cash is the extent of fixing?

The original USFL was a rival league immediately because they signed star players and great college players. They had Kelly, Young, Herschel Walker....
Obviously that was a different time and economic environment for the leagues.

Looking at the jets and im like... Breece Hall is blue chip and James cook is not?
And what is the taron johnson concern? He was all-pro this year.
If you look at the color key, I have to assume Taron Johnson is just an age concern. Same with Diggs. Obviously these guys are great.
As for Breece Hall, the line is very close between him and Cook. Hall had more all purpose yards and considerably more TDs I think, without looking at the stats right now.
For Hall, the talent's always been there. He was drafted high and showed it right away. Cook started slow. So, I think there's a question mark regarding his potential to be consistently great.

So if you don’t want to watch the WFL/USFL/XFL etc…, you aren’t a “true” football fan? Okay football super fan. How is the view from your pedestal?
It's great! I get to watch more football than you lowly peasants.
32 minutes ago, nucci said:it's not a rival league. It's made of players who can't play in the NFL.
Well, how do you think a league can work itself up to become a rival? It's not going to get there immediately.
But, alas, that's the world that casual "football fans" live in ....
The other poster complained about the NFL having a monopoly and wants the government to step in, but then doesn't even support the up-and-coming league.
Just stupid.

The concern is what “good players” cost. Greg’s fifth year option is going to cost $13M. Danielle Hunter (a more productive but older player) is projected to get $20M AAV. What will Greg get the year after?
Do we pay Rousseau $20M a season to be a “good player?”
That's not a concern to me. If they don't think he's good enough, then don't pay him. Groot himself is the only one who should be concerned. For the FO and fans, it seems pretty simple.

First, you want Congress to do something? Congress???
Second, no one is stopping others from launching a rival league to the NFL. Anyone with a spare trillion can do it.
The funny thing is there IS A RIVAL LEAGUE that we should be supporting. And it's really fun. But I think the majority of NFL fans aren't true FOOTBALL fans. They don't watch anything but the NFL and maybe just their own college team.
They're fans of the brand.

I'm not concerned. He's just a good player. Late first rounders usually become just good players.

Our mate from Kansas City that posts here did make a good point the other day…
Outside the QB … is there another superstar on this Bills team ?
KC has a couple …including Chris Jones who I think is the most valuable defensive player in the game at present …
They got 2 great CBs ( better than anything we got) … superior interior OL ( that handled Oliver with ease… ) and Kelce on the decline but still a big game winner …
Bills have got a lot of “above average “ players … but not too many game winners outside JA..
Matt Milano, Jimbo Cook....Kincaid is just a rookie, but he seems like the real deal.

It would be the ultimate entertainment

My patience is unlimited. I'm not a child anymore. I'm here to be entertained. The team's accomplishments are not a reflection of me. My personal goals are separate from their goals.

I might argue with that. The first row in the sidelines may not be as low as the current stadium. I’m sure they would rather have some more space away from fans right on top of the players while on sideline. As well as it is likely better for the fans to be up 5’ compared to what it currently is now. The first few rows have a hard time seeing the action over the players on the sidelines as it is. End zones are likely free game and will be just as low. And from what I have seen they will offer field level seating in at least one end zone. There’s quite a few stadiums that have them.
That's great. You're not arguing with anything. Just speculating.

I am guessing the dotted red line is where the sideline is.
It's not. It's the slope of the upper level. See the blue dotted line for the current stadium? Obviously the field doesn't start underneath the stands in the current stadium.

Look at the first row of seats for old stadium, and then compare with new stadium overlay.
That's just the side profile of the seats. How are you confirming distance from the field if there is no field on the diagram?

Where on the diagram do you see a field?

I'm talking about the things you can't tell your wife or your husband. The things that haunt you at night. Things like Dalton Kincaid is a below average receiver (I would never say such a thing, I love Kincaid). How about the team will really miss Gabe Davis? Now that would almost be blasphemy on this board. These are just examples people. I do not endorse either of these statements. I'm just giving examples of the depths I'm asking you to reach in this thread.
I will start.......
Von Miller will have a rebound year eclipsing 10 sacks in 2024
My unpopular opinion is that the Bills should completely redesign their logo. They've had two logos in their history and they're both terrible. Third time's the charm.

Josh Allen = lesser Cam Newton, Cam has an MVP.
That would be an unpopular opinion, but I have trouble believing it's your true opinion....

Do you truly want to trade Josh though?
They'd get a boatload of picks/players and be able to add a ton of talent, so...

Seriously who gives a *****? Tre White surely don't. He's been paid handsomely to play football. And unfortunately he isn't able to play football when we need him most. Therefore, there's the door Tre. Let's use the money they'd otherwise pay him to find somebody who will be helpful next January. I don't see what him being "an outstanding representative of the team" brings to a team when opposing offenses are gaining almost 10 yards a play on them in the playoffs.
Tre White gives a ton of *****. Money aside, he's one of the guys that truly loves football and desires to be great.

I'm a bitter Bills fan. The world does have a lot of problems, but those are too big. Complaining about how my favorite team is run is easier.
There's no such thing a bitter fan. Just bitter people wearing team gear.

The fact that we keep guys like Damar Hamlin around cuz he's a "nice story", pay jerkoffs like Dawson Knox tons and to go into a critical seasonsith Gabe Davis as our number two receiver despite ample proof that he ain't that guy shows that a lot of this team is governed by keep "good feelings" and that they don't wanna mess with a guy with a "nice story." Tre's been such a wonderful guy and a great teammate that he needs to be kept around despite showing for two and a half years that he won't be a difference maker when it's crunch time. Either due to literally being unavailable due to injury or just straight up getting smoked by Cincinnati's receivers.
The Bills renegotiate with and release players every year. It's not a problem.

The UFL, and why I want it to work
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
College kids should have the option to just play pro ball like young prospects of the other pro leagues do. It'd be cool if the UFL could be that option and eventually steal some top college talent.
