Man, as much as we complain about our QB situation, thank god we're not the Jets...

Kiko Alonso got the 300-level shoveled out today before he went in for his rehab.

I picked the Raiders with the spread of +7, but I'm not in my right mind usually....

Ok, I see. The economy has been manipulated by the Fed for over 5 years now as its balance sheet has increased 500%. You (and Magox) claimed it was Fed policy that caused higher oil/commodity prices in the first part of the age of manipulation. Now, apparently you are claiming that same manipulation is causing lower prices? Or are you claiming other conspiratorial forces are to blame?

Give'em a break. It's hard to meet bonus targets if you can't rig the numbers.

Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn...

Are you still clinging to your Austrian ideas given the decline in commodities? In the past year, the Fed has expanded its balance sheet--pumping liquidity in the markets to the tune of $600 billion or 15.6%; yet gold is down 9.4%, and the GSCI is down 14%; and Oil is collapsing! Any thoughts?

Posted this in another thread. Relevant for this one. IF the Bills can win the next 3 AND go 2-2 in the final quarter, they make 10-6. 5 Wins= @Mia, NYJ, Clev, @Oak, GB For the competition, I'll list games where they have a higher (than 50-50) chance of losing: AFCW KC 6-3: SEA, DEN, @AZ, @Pitt, SD. Lose 4 of 5. 9-7 SD 5-4: Pats, Den, @SF, @KC. Lose 3 of 4. 9-7 AFCN: Clev 6-3: @Buf, Ind, @CAR, @Balt, Cin. Lose Ind, @Buf, and one of @Balt or Cin, so Pitt wins division and Bills win head-to-head. Cinc 5-3-1: @NO, Pitt, @Clev, Den, @Pitt. Lose any 3 and they are 9-6-1. Pitt 5-4: NO, @Cin, KC, Cin. Easiest schedule. Hope they win division (Bills have the head-to-head over Clev). Pitt needs to beat Cin twice in case Clev and Pitt are 10-6. Balt 5-4: @NO, SD, @Mia, Clev. Lose 3 and they are 9-7. Scenarios: 1. It's all moot if Bills don't take care of business. 2. If KC only loses 3 more games, then Pitt needs to win AFCN so Bills have tie breaker with Clev. I don't see SD doing better than 9-7. 3. If KC loses 4 more games, then most likely Pitt and Clev get in as Div winner and WC, with Bills as the other WC. It would've been a hell of a lot easier had the Bills beat KC, but I believe they still have a pretty decent shot with #2 be most likely.

At this point, I think there's a decent chance they can finish the season 10-6. I might change my mind tomorrow night....

GB is a very winnable game. Buffalo and Detroit are very similar teams defensively, and the pack struggle against the lions. They are not the same team on the road. My optimism may come crashing down after tomorrow, but the bills are a very talented team, and IF they can manage to win the next 3 and boost their confidence, they will have a good shot at 10 wins.

They will need to restructure Mario's contract. Also a lot of dead Monet from fitz and Stevie should be gone.

take a look at schedules and tell me who you think will be 10-6 let alone 11-5 and not a division winner? KC has Seattle, Denver, and SD @home and They are @pit and @AZ. Do you think they'll win 3 of those 5? Before ending @KC, SD has Denver and the pats @home and @SF. The north is a clusterfek. There is always hope...

sorry doc, but they still have a good chance if they win the next 3. KC and SD have very tough schedules and it's not a stretch for both to end 9-7. The north will be a mess by the end of the season (kind of like season 3 in game of thrones), and IF the Bills can get to 10-6 then they will be in. It starts Thursday. Now, if they win the next 2, then lose to the Browns, "I will be so done with this team!"

The Bills need to develop a killer instinct quick. The KC should've been no contest. They have to win the next 3, and they certainly can. Despite orton's poor throws, the O might be turning a corner. Finish this quarter 3-1, then split the final 4. I think 10-6 will do it despite being on the wrong end of too many tie breakers. Lose Thursday and it's aloha...

I'll be interested to know which Wall Street bank (he protected against prosecution) he'll be working for...

let's not blame the entire O, it's the Oline and running game. Orton and the passing game have been solid and come through when needed.If they don't get a good running game going this week, Orton is in for a long day.

Bengals will be lucky to win 2 of there last 7 games. They are done.

Well, I think we're getting an answer about one of these teams. I'm looking at the Bengals schedule, and if they lose this, I think they spiral downward.

When I cooked for a living, quite a long time ago, most of us used Macs. I have henckels now, but would love to have my old Mac back.

The Chiefs are a much better team this year than last. That said, since the Bills have home field, I really hope the Bills do something like KC did to the Pats. I'd love to see a blow out, but I'm afraid it's going to be close, and I think the Chefs win in a close game. So, either 34-13 Bills or 20-17 Chefs.

both teams give up about 140 ypg on the ground and almost 400 YPg overall. I'm reminded of KC last year. Or as some like to describe here, their winning ways are not sustainable...

man, is economic literacy in decline...Keynesian stimulus comes from the fiscal side. Any real Keynesian will tell you monetary policy is impotent in recessions. Where do you guys get this crap? Don't conflate your want to criticize Obama with criticizing economic theory. You're acting like a political hack now.

So I was perusing the Nfl stats as I often do, and came across this fact: the Browns and Bengals rank 28th and 30th in yards given up per game defensively. However, They rank 8th and 17th on points given up per game. My question: Is either of these teams legit or are they both paper tigers?

wtf, are you saying the Fed's bailout was Obama's plan?!? Are you trying to say Obama controls the a Fed?!? Speak English man!
