    I find this part of the article interesting and confusing.

     

     

    So are they saying he visited the Bills again after the Cowboys? And are they implying that they know Buffalo is third on his list of choices?

    I don’t think so…I think they meant buffalo was the final of his three scheduled visits and they worded it weird

    How tf has the spread stayed at Bills -9.5 to bills -10 all week??  Everywhere I look people are taking Jets +9.5/10 (even though the vast majority still have Bills winning) but if most of the money is coming in on the Jets, doesn’t that usually influence the spread?  
     

    this has been the most mind boggling Bills spread of the year for me. Jets have a stingy defense that has kept almost all of their games close I believe, also proved to be the TOUGHEST defense Allen has had to deal with so far, their offense has improved with Mike White and they’re also healthy. 
     

    So, I keep looking at this thinking I am missing something…. Shrug…. All I can say is I hope they’re right!!!  

    Smart money is all on buffalo -10 it looks like.

    majority of bets are on the jets +10 but a majority of the money is on buffalo -10.

     

    I think the sharps pay a lot more attention than your average bettor and realize how badly they victimized our depth linebackers last game with Milano out. Plus we have extra time to prepare, were at home, and we destroyed mike white last meeting.
     

    People keep bringing up the jets defense but it’s really more about their offense imo.  With poyer, tre, Milano, and edmunds playing how many points do you expect them to score realistically? Even with a great performance from the jets defense we are likely gonna score in the 20-25 point range still. 
     

    im expecting a 24-13 type game

    Odell Beckham Jr. last night on

    @NFLonPrime

    : “I would like to be in a stable environment, get up at 6 am, leave at 6 pm for 4 weeks, and then let’s talk about it. … I’m not saying I couldn’t step in and play regular season, but I don’t see the point.”

    This really does sound like a prove it deal in buffalo to me and I don’t even think it’s me being biased lol

    Interesting that Gabe was part of the recruiting dinner. 
     

    Makes me believe he’s in the long term plans of this team. 

    I’m still holding out hope that gabe has just been snakebit/unlucky so far and it’ll turn around.  The opportunities have been there he just isn’t makin the plays often enough

    He leads in a lot of categories:

    Passer rating
    Yds/attmept
    Yds/completion
    TD%
    3rd in YPG
    2nd in QBR
    3rd completion percentage


    It's hard to say he's been better than two guys that have played at a very high level all year and haven't missed any games while he was knocked out of two and missed two more, but when he's been on the field he's been more spectacular this year to me. Mahomes has been extremely steady, but this may be his least exciting year as a pro. Hurts has also been electric at times, but has had 4 games with under 200 yards passing including 3 of the last 4. last week was his first 300 yard game since week 3.

    While yardage is not an end all be all stat for a QB, I'm not sure they're winning like they are on the back of Hurts but rather with him. The Phins and the Chiefs definitely go through their QB - as the Bills do.

    It’s mahomes’ least exciting season as a pro because he lost the real mvp to the dolphins lol moving tyreek has completely transformed two teams.  Mahomes still has that offense moving but everything looks like much more of a struggle and the defensive playbook to defend the chiefs is a lot less limited 

     

    I don’t think we can assume tua would’ve played well in the games he’s missed given the sample size so far.  They have looked like a completely different team against the better defenses in the league.   He was likely in for a rough one against the jets and he was playing pretty poorly in the bengals game before getting injured.  This back half of the season has the make or break games for how the league ends up viewing tua. 
     

    a bit of flukey scheduling got them a pretty long stretch of bottom feeder opponents in a row. 
     

    mvp is tough because you have to isolate individual players in a very team centric game.  If you swapped tua and mahomes’ supporting casts mahomes would shatter every record in the book.  I don’t think tua is adding anywhere near the amount of value to his team than people assume he is when looking at just stats 

     

    also idk if it’s because he’s lefty or what but he has more sure interceptions dropped than any qb I’ve ever seen

    295 yards and two Tds is a pretty good worst performance lol. Idk why some of you won’t give credit where it’s due. With help from McDaniel he has turned his career around. Tyreek is on pace for a 2,000 yard season and that’s largely because of Tua. You guys can hate on him that’s fine but the kid is a great QB and has put together a hell of a comeback story after being trashed by fans and the sports media for the last two years

    Normally I’d agree but 75 yards and one of those tds came on a single play the first play of the game.  So the final 59 minutes or so he mustered up 225 yards, 1 TD, 3 turnovers.  
     

    It’s not just the niners game, this is a cumulative thing now.  any time the dolphins have had a tough opponent tua is either injured or doesn’t play very well (outside of that one quarter against baltimore where Kyle Hamilton forgot how to play football)

     

    vs baltimore he was struggling for 3 quarters until Marcus peters and humphrey were in and out of the lineup then he just exploded 

     

    vs buffalo he was mediocre at best against mostly backups

     

    vs Cincy he was having a pretty bad half before getting injured

     

    missed the jets game missed the Vikings 

     

    vs SF he was bad 

     

    I think he’s a good qb in a great system that’s much more prone to absolutely demolish bad teams and struggle against good defenses than the other good offenses in the league.  He’s got plenty of chances to prove me wrong down the stretch though.
     

    tyreek had 177 receiving yards with bridgewater at qb vs the Vikings and 140 of his 170 receiving yards with bridgewater against the bengals so I’m not convinced it’s all tua why he is performing well.  I think tyreek is elevating the play of his qbs honestly

    I could be wrong but if Von was in Dallas on Monday and having exploratory surgery yesterday, would Miller really be back to Buffalo already?

    I think vons exploratory surgery was in Dallas…maybe they ran into eachother there?  Or it was an old picture

    Doesn’t matter regardless he admitted to sleeping with her and she was underage. That alone legally would have to make him register as a sex offender. It’s statutory rape. 

    It would not in California…mistake of age is a valid defense there.

    WTH does any of this mean?

    There’s a lot of acronyms there lol but War lost to injury is a pretty interesting one.  Wins above replacement is basically how many more wins a player will get you compared to an average player.

     

    so we have lost more wins due to injured players than any team in the afc and any team but one in the nfl.

    Let’s hope ODB wants to prove it to everyone and really gets himself ready for a late playoff push then. 
     

    but I’d imagine it’ll be at least this year and next for a contract. With pretty high guarantees. 

    Sounds like the demand isn’t there so he’s either going to get less than he was aiming for or nothing

    They did not have the one see or a bye last year

    If the Bills coached the 13 second thing differently they would be 0-5 to the Bills and Bengals.  Most of that with Hill.   The narrative would be different  for usre.

    That’s true but there was really no threat of a potential playoff away game…the titans weren’t a great team.  
     

    the narrative is already different as far as the bengals go…the bills part of it is debatable because you could say ‘well only the playoff games matter’ 

     

    chiefs haven’t beaten the joe Burrow bengals once 

     

    the bengals and bills missed plenty of opportunities and still came away with wins vs kc too…it’s not like they had to play a perfect game.

     

    chiefs would’ve gotten spanked by Tennessee with tannehill playing also 

    they just haven’t looked as sharp against the better afc teams as in years past

    Yet they are where they always are.  At the top of the division they will win easily.   The other three teams are all having disappointing seasons.  The broncos are on another level as far as that goes.   Hill is a loss but gent have Mahomes, they can beat any team with their roster even if it is a tick less talented.  

    I would argue this isn’t completely true…division winner sure but they have never had a road playoff game in mahomes’ career and this is the first danger they’ve really been in of not being the obvious 1 seed with a bye 

     

    they’re also now 0-3 against the bengals in the last couple years and 1-2 against us…psychologically that should be a pretty big deal for them

    San Fran has the #1 defense in the league featuring Joey Bosa.  Bills defense is ranked quite a bit lower.    So I wouldn't get too excited especially with no Von Miller?

    We lost miller but got back tre white and Rousseau.  Poyer,edmunds, and Milano have gotten healthy too.  The bills defense is going to be considerably better down the stretch even without von 
     

    not to mention I think op was saying at an overall team level we are ahead of the Brock purdy niners

    Can I put money on the #5 seed Dallas right now?

     

    I mean this is a playoffs mortal lock.  

    That’s a great bet…I really think they’re better than philly and philly is all anybody talks about
