what if mcdermott finishes 1-6 in close games this season? a little too early to crow and point fingers. great win though.

Then don't be so confident pre-game. Either Bills fans sucked predicting this game, or the team underperformed. One has to be true, maybe both.

you're bad at analytics if you believe the data in that article is reliable for ranking Buffalo as having a top-4 analytics department.

Haack: Okay, young Araiza. This is Holding Lesson #1. I'm going to teach you a hand-strengthening exercise. First, splay all your fingers out on that table there. Araiza: That's weird but okay. Hey, is that a mallet you're holding in your hand? Haack: ..... Nope. This is also not me raising it over my head.

that's overstated as we still punt over a quarter of the time. it's like how we only average 2 FG attempts a game but it's still nice to have a great placekicker. araiza's the ultimate field flipper. now, any time the bills are in bad field position (like after a 3-and-out), the opposing team is in bad field position. opposing DCs will have to gameplan around Araiza and make sure Buffalo always gets a couple of first downs before playing D for real.

If there were only about 20 players with 1st-round grades and that was close to consensus around the league, it makes sense that picks in the 20 range (like 23) can extract more in a trade than you would otherwise think possible. Obviously Elam was one of the last players that the Bills had a first round grade on (maybe THE last) and they didn't want to plug CB2 with a player a tier below.

I like the signing but I also wish we had just traded for him. Maybe the Bills and Rams would swap roles right now, with the Rams trying to go all-in again and signing MIller to a massive contract while the Bills celebrate a Lombardi.

missing on this isn't as bad as some of you are making it out to be simply because loading up the AFC West is a good thing for the Bills, but to those pooh-poohing Mack's recent production, there's no way Beane produces more sacks from that 2nd-rounder and 6th-rounder.

haha, you should tell reddit and twitter that. as for sanctions and relationships between countries, we'll have to see long-term what the impact is. i hope you realize there is potentially major blowback on the european and u.s. economies, too, and the possible death of the petrodollar. I think there's a chance the U.S. and Europe will hurt worse, and just as importantly, I think there's a chance the U.S. and Europe populaces are less tough in the face of economic wars than the Russian people, who are used to being poor. you know, we're a week, a week and half into a war, and it's funny how so many internet experts can predict the future.

so? Zelensky also released prisoners and armed them. He's going to use whatever soldiers he can get, and indeed a decent amount of his military is NeoNazi. (btw, Nazis hate Russians, too. It's not really that surprising). extremely optimistic, i'd say. If you're referring to the sanctions, we'll have to see what the blowback on the european and U.S. economies will be, as well as the petrodollar.

man, hopefully these 48% don't actually support that though.

I could only guess at the other two questions (and my guess would be either annexation or perhaps creation of a new Russia-friendly republic), but as far as the military facts on the ground, the bulk of Ukraine's forces are encircled in the Donbas, Mariupol, and now Odessa. Russia is winning and has never been anything other than a 99% favorite to win. Incidentally, most of the supplies and weapons the West are promising to Ukraine will end up in Russian hands.

haha, I predicted it. typical lib. you'd rather drown in mainstream media nonsense and believe that Ukraine is winning this war (lol) than just read the other side and decide for yourself which analysis sounds more reasonable. the funny thing is this isn't even a left / right issue. it's simply "where do I get the best war reporting, and do I understand the counterpoints to what I'm rooting for?" in fact, Fox News is just as bad as CNN on reporting on this war.

you will probably not even look at these links, but i will supply them anyway. note that they are unabashedly pro-Russia but the question you should ask is: are they accurate? we will find out in the coming days and weeks whether the mainstream media is painting the more accurate picture or whether the pro-Russia sites are. https://thesaker.is/ https://www.moonofalabama.org/ https://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/

lol, I'm going to guess the propaganda you're reading/watching about this war is less accurate than the propaganda i'm reading/watching.

does it really matter? it's probably a fake and if it isn't, it doesn't change anything about Josh. you might even respect him more. we did suck for 20 years

um, yes. lol, it's not the early-2000s anymore.

i read it as stafford trying to be faithful to his wife. if he hunched over the fallen photographer to check on her, he's such a cooz-hound that he'd be tempted to cop a feel or perhaps even perform insertion. (don't shoot the messenger! stafford is the bastard, not me.)

if the line continues its solid play from the end of the season, then great. it'd be foolish to count on it, though. definitely try to get better and build out depth on the OL. you're only addressing the catastrophic injury aspect of the debate, though, which is just a minor part of it. most people just don't want Josh to build up the cumulative wear and tear on his body over many years. it'd be nice if he could age like Brady instead of like Big Ben.

I don't personally care, but it should be noted that black people do, and they are not a fan:

I actually don't doubt it. I'm guessing you play at BetOnline with a Hud? You can print money that way. As for your question about why 7 to 1 is a bad price, you can search for how sportsbooks make a killing off the futures markets. If they're laying 7 to 1, I guarantee the fair price (based on current knowledge of the teams) using their computer algorithms is at least 10 to 1. If you do the math and add up the prices for all 32 teams in the Super Bowl futures market*, you'll find out that the sportsbook is basically charging a vig of 50% whereas on a regular point spread bet, they're only charging a vig of 10%. * Because we know in a perfectly fair market, all the probabilities should add up to 1

Flores wins if this happens. I believe Flores' career was already in danger because Ross was backstabbing / ratfudging him with the other owners; Flores was about to be blackballed out of the league. But if he can make Ross lose his team on the way out, then Flores will have gotten his vengeance. The "NFL is racist" stuff was just to draw as many eyeballs as possible to the situation in Miami and Flores' accusations. Flores may very well believe it but it's not his primary motive. As they way, "all politics is personal", and in this case there is a personal vendetta between Flores and Ross.

sure, but as long as degenerates are willing to bet this early, the sportsbooks will lay out some bad lines for them to bet into why? that number was going to still be available in September. you just loaned the sportsbook money interest-free for no reason.

it'd be an unpersuasive argument given that outstanding D-line, a lockdown corner, a good CB2 to complement, the WR corps when healthy, an O-line that can pass protect well, and Stafford's arm strength. the Rams were loaded. they also could've lost in the playoffs easily, but no need to downplay their talent.

i wish people would stop saying this. usually the winner of the Super Bowl gets a Super Bowl trophy
