    NFL trade deadline is usually pretty quiet, at least compared to other sports leagues. Not sure if it has to do with players needing more time to fit in the team’s scheme, or the way contracts are structured.

    Obvious sellers are hard to come by…not too many teams are cooked before November.

    I can't get these to embed ever but Art Stapelton (Giants Beat writer) is speculating a Elam for Adoree Jackson swap.  He is just speculating but geez no way the giants would do something like this right?  This would be a huge win for the Bills.   Jackson is a good not great player who can play inside and outside.  He has played in some aggressive defenses under Dick Lebeau, Dean Peas and now Wink Martindale.  I imagine he could play in this defense without an issue.

    People are lamenting we never make big moves but there’s some more subtle moves like this one that would really excite me.  Not sure anything like that is gonna happen either though lol

    Is this legit

    Man they got fleeced if true lol.  I wouldn’t have hated bringing him in but that’s way too much to give up

     I just want you to know I read "Is this legit" to the tune of Huey Lewis and The News "If this is it"

     

    and to tell you so it sounds like it is not since that account that posted seems to be not serious.

    This is the post of the year haha

    i thought the offense against tampa was solid although it went a bit stagnant.  i figured whoever wins sunday will win in a shoot out, which makes me nervous because cincy seems to be back on track.  i'm not sure where this bills team is right now.

    I think we’re at minimum considerably better in the trenches than we were in that playoff game so this game will be its own thing.  Doesn’t mean we’ll win though obviously 😂. At least some of the gloom on here seems to be ‘look what they did to us last time’ and the circumstances have changed quite a bit.  I do think no Hayden hurst will fiddle with their gameplan a bit too he was pretty heavily featured last year.  
     

    if our pass rush steps up I could see a potential path to giving the bengals offense some resistance.  It’s not like we had a healthy von miller or Daquan jones last year either lol and who knows maybe the mini bye helps von out a bit. 
     

    but yea your final sentence is the whole question…I don’t really know where either of these teams are literally anything could happen.  I’m not ready to crown the bengals just because they beat SF…SF with no Deebo or trent Williams is a 6 win team probably..  their oline is roughhhh outside of Williams he is a massive player to be down

    It was a close game until Purdy decided to start handing the ball to the other team.

    Yea I was gonna add that but I figured I’d get ‘josh Allen turns the ball over too’ in response 😂. Even with the turnovers I think sf probably puts up 550 yards and has a chance to win with Deebo/Trent Williams in there 


    i don’t think there’s any question that our offense has a much higher ceiling than sf missing those two guys

    the cincy d is vulnerable but the bills isn't?

    They’re both vulnerable which is why I could see it going either way based on red zone defense..  for me it comes down to who can plug up the run without committing too many additional resources the best which was obviously cincy last year but this year I’m genuinely not sure.  Cincy is one of the worst rushing defenses in the league and we’ve gotten better running the football.  If SF had trent Williams/Deebo I think that bengals game would’ve been a very close shootout 

     

    im really interested to see how we do against the cincy defense and the now nick Bolton-less chiefs.  We’re being hard on our offense from the TB game but Tampa is honestly one of the better defenses in the league.  They were very similar to the jets defense in all the advanced metrics before playing us but have now dropped a few spots

    You can bet an MVP, an Offensive/ Defensive Rookie of the Year, Division Winners and Parlays, Conference, SB,etc., etc. in NY or MARS! 
     

    Just not physically there.

    Idk I don’t see the mvp bets showing up on any of the apps and when I Google it I’ll find a link to place an mvp bet through DraftKings or whatnot and the link will just take me to the football Home Screen 

     

    maybe I can drive to CT and try it 😂

    I think you are addressing the wrong issues here. Most of the info you provided is pretty useless.

     

    I think it's imperative to look at the Bills vs Bengals match up. When i do that objectively I don't like the Bills chances. 

    I think it’s pretty fair game to dig into your opponents previous match up especially when it’s the game that caused the masses to declare they are back to top form because they beat a supposedly elite opponent

     

    SF has yet to win a game without a healthy Trent Williams and Deebo Samuel and there’s a clear reason for that.  
     

    the cincy defense is gettable in a lot of areas much like our defense is…49ers were just too depleted to do it.   Linebackers have looked worse this year, corners aren’t very good, safeties aren’t good,  Hendrickson is an absolute beast though and dj reader is good.  
     

    on offense they’re scary for sure I don’t think anyone is arguing that. Haven’t been great running the football most of the year though.

    We notoriously struggle against TEs up the seam and they have replaced Hayden hurst with irv smith which is a pretty big downgrade.  Hurst beat us up pretty good in that playoff game

    I disagree.

     

    This is what Allen is seeing (photo below). An open Kincaid with a large enough space between Allen and the free rusher to rifle a patented Josh Allen tomahawk missile, despite the tight alley.

     

    I truly believe if this same scenario was attempted 10 times in a row, Allen completes at least 8 of them.

    Winfield jumps in the air and barely gets one hand (maybe even half a hand) on the ball. It was a good play by Winfield, and Allen probably should have just ate the sack, but as mentioned before, he knows he can make it work more times than not.

    This is a perfect example of how the broadcast angle at full speed really doesn’t tell the whole story.

    It has almost nothing to do with "narrative." After stats the 2nd biggest correlating factor is team regular season win-loss record (voting happens before the playoffs). The last 6 MVPs were QBs that led their team to the #1 seed and home-field advantage.

     

     

    You might not, but every sportsbook in the country would. Be careful, these books make a fortune off hometown fans that overrate their team/players and think they see value where none exists. We haven't been playing well against mediocre opponents, the schedule gets tougher, and the weather is going to get a lot worse.

     

    It’s a really interesting situation…looking back in the past it’s mostly been players winning it on the best team but you can’t really point to a time where they obviously passed up somebody with better stats because there were better teams either lol I really don’t know what would even happen in a hypothetical scenario where maybe he is pretty clearly the best statistical qb but the bills snag a wildcard or are the 4 seed or something like that 

     

    I do understand the point you’re making for sure but +1400 for the guy leading in tds thats team is only a game behind the division/conference leader with an opportunity against a lot of heavy hitters feels like pretty good value.  I’d roll the dice on it if it was legal in this state 😂. I figure he should be in the +700/+800 range in what I’d put his chances at of goin off in the second half.  I was pretty shocked to see +1400

    Adams is very upset. Make a phone call

    Davante Adams to buffalo would be pretty funny after he publicly complained about that Taylor rapp hit lol

     

    he basically said rapp has to play dirty because he’s bad

    Wow... you "shelled out" for Sunday Ticket?  OMG... you take it serious.   Smfh.

    I have had Sunday Ticket since 1995.  

     

    Did I say anything about SF or their injuries?  No

    Did I say anything about the point spread? No

    Did I mention SF?  No

    I said they (Cincy) are more physical on both sides of the ball.

     

    Quit trying to make the narrative something else.

     

    Do I want the Bills win?  Absof#$%^&luteal!

     

    Congrats on your Sunday Ticket.

    Haha it was a jokey way to say I watched the bengals play a lot this year 😂 yeesh.  You said stats don’t matter, I countered with I’ve been watching the games I’m not just looking at a stat sheet. Then I added SF got whooped in the trenches on the offensive side of the ball because they were down two huge pieces on the oline.  All super relevant info to your earlier retort about how the bengals are more physical on both sides of the ball.  

    I literally replied directly to your ‘narrative’ and refuted it with factual information…you just don’t agree which is fine

    Unfortunately I don't think you can bet on postseason awards in new york

    Ohhhh that is the issue I’m having haha that explains a lot

    MVP is as much about the narrative as the stats. If there was a vote right now Tua wins it. 

     

    If Josh goes on a tear against the Bills tougher stretch opponents he could well still end up with the stats and the narrative.

    Yea it’s a bit surprising to me that he’s the leader in tds and only a game behind the dolphins/chiefs with one to play against both those teams and he still has long shot odds

    Whatever... you go with your stat..

    Lol I mean it’s not just stats I’ve seen them getting gashed in the trenches every week.  I shelled out for the good ol Sunday ticket 😂 49ers without Trent brown/Deebo and Aaron banks going down midgame were a lot easier to manhandle than they would’ve been normally.

     

    If we were in a similar situation and had to play cincy without diggs and a few starting offensive linemen I would absolutely agree with the sentiment here that we’d get utterly humiliated.  Right now I think cincy being a 1.5-3.5 point favorite sounds about right

    If he plays great next week on the road in Cinci in primetime and wins in front of the whole country, then sure it will change. If he plays poorly and the Bills lose then he's probably in an insurmountable hole.

     

     

    If you're feeling lucky he's +1500 on Caesars. 

    Trying to place that bet as we speak lol I think he’s one good game in the national spotlight away from jumping to +400 

     

    At some point even if the team only wins 10 games I feel like his stats could be a tier above everyone to the point where they might have to give it to him but I have genuinely no idea how they’d handle that if it happens 😂
