TPS

He certainly shares the blame for not stopping the Jets offense....

Given all of the bad, it Looked like he had a solid game.

Media making too much of Rex owning Fitz. Fitz gets his revenge tonight. 24 - 16

Dopes or deplorables?

Dancing with the Stars?

Because most fans don't pay attention to what happens to other teams. They were 5-11, they must be bad.

Definitely encouraging. One bad play by Duke Williams, otherwise a solid effort. Several sacks looked to be coverage sacks. I am sure the offense will come around, though I think we will struggle against teams that can stop the run with only 7 in the box, as Baltimore did often. The Jets are similar, but home field will help a lot. The Bills need to come out of these first 4 with 2 wins.

I expect the offense to do its part, and average 27 ppg (+/- 1). It's on the D to improve. A good indicator for making the playoffs is a differential close to 7 ppg, which requires the D to hit around 20, an improvement of 3-4 ppg over last season. In my view, it's all on the Ryans.

watkins' totals before the bye week after 7 games: 147 yds and 2 tds. After the bye week and 9 games: 900 yds and 7 TDs. I think they're going to be ok... Btw, for a 16 game season, the latter set of stats puts him in the top 3 last year--Julio jones and Antonio brown were 1 and 2.

Tyrod is a classy guy, and deserves everything he gets because he works to earn it. If you didn't see that ESPN draft special about him, it's well worth it (Three for the Show).

I think it's a very difficult year to predict. They are good enough to compete with anyone. I think it's not far-fetched to have them splitting the division games, 3 Ws I think they have 4 locks on the schedule: SF, CLEV, LA, and JAX (because this is at home). 4Ws I think they will most likely lose on the road to SEA Their fate will be determined in these matchups: Two teams predicted by some to be in the final 4: AZ and PITT, but both are at home, so anything can happen 3 more away games that can be classified as toss ups: OAK, CIN, BALT 7 wins + ?/5 = ? I can see 9-10 wins this year.

Stupidly funny. Emmy-worthy acting going on there...

The key to this game should be the match up of their strong suit on O and the Bills' on D: Flacco and the passing game versus the Bills' secondary. It should be a nail biter to the end. Toss up for the win.

Without a doubt, it's the defense. The Ryan's have doubled down to prove the naysayers wrong.

Just read the piece and that's exactly what I was going to post, with the addition: "not great but distinct." What the hell does that mean?

I feel much better about the D this year than I did at this time last year. I liked what I saw of Washington and Worthy in preseason. As long as Kyle stays healthy until Dareus gets back, I think they'll be fine. I think the front 7 will play better than the sum of its parts, especially against the run. We should have a good idea about this team by the Pats game. yes, I meant in the sense"who cares about what some national talking head thinks?!"

Why does anyone care about preseason rankings? Let's see where they stand at thanksgiving--in the hunt or not.

The answer people believe: it borrows in excess of its taxes. The way the mechanics actually work: federal government spending (transferred from the Treasury's account at the Fed) in excess of its taxes generates new deposits at banks, and Primary Dealers (determined by and interacting with the NYFED), the 23 largest global banks and financial entities who receive most of those deposits, are required to "make the Treasury market." These 23 large financial entities are required by the FED to ensure Treasury bills sold at its auctions are filled. By law, the federal government has to sell securities in excess of taxes (the Treasury is not allowed to print money, but the Fed can), but its spending in excess of taxes generates the deposits the banking system (the dealers) uses to "fund" those securities. The Fed stands ready to make sure the market functions to meet its interest rate target. The interest rate on T-Bills is a function of the Fed's target rate. Since the US government's short-term borrowing costs are governed by the Fed, by definition the low Fed target keeps the government's cost down (if this is what you mean by ZIRP helping "government spending", yes), though the low target is a consequence of the sluggish US and world economies. The key issue, then, is knowing what causes the Fed to change its target and therefore short term T-bill rates...

Decade? C'mon we go back longer than that G. Time flies... Btw, watching right vs far right in the Trump thread has been very entertaining.

He's eligible for the PS, so I"m sure he'll land there if he clears.

That's my guess. He did an admirable job last year when needed, and I haven't heard anything bad about him this year. His competition now is whether they keep a safety over him, which I doubt. NEVER MIND.....

Gronk brings much more veratility.

The Butler did it....

Ummm...for those who make less than $415K, the long term cap gains tax is 15% (+3.8% ACA). For those above, it's 20% +ACA. Yes, jump on board that "Trump Train"....a new song by Cat Stevens....
