There is no way we will beat the Jaguars
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to Cygnus99's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I had to do a double take, listening to the crowd noise I thought the Steelers were the home team! But that's kind of par for the course in Jax -
That's kind of presumptuous, lets assume the team gets real good, Allen is a franchise type QB, his contract is up, plus T White, Edmunds, etc. It's difficult to sustain not getting into cap hell if you build a good team. Not impossible, but hard to do. So far no evidence either way that Beane will do a good job with managing the cap or not as frankly nothing yet to look at as a reference. He's seems to have a good head for the business side, but time will tell.

Well as was pointed out earlier, you're either a troll , 12 years old, or an idiot. If Barkley started, the line may drop to 6 or 5. If they announced I was starting a QB next week for the Bills the line wouldn't move more than a couple points no matter what happens, lines don't change by 7 points. Maybe if they announced Arron Rodgers was starting for Buffalo it might go to even but even then maybe!

Explain this to me, based on what you're saying how come Jax is a 7 point favorite? Translate that to odds is probably close to 2:1 That's fine that you think all that's going to happen, but to say there's a 10% chance of this happening there's nothing to back it up. As was pointed out probability is multiplied so very quickly goes downhill. Many people here post things that are opinion that can't be verified either way, but when you say 10% chance, that's just not correct mathematically so what you are saying is absolutely beyond the shadow of a doubt WRONG!
-
I'd imagine the odds are much lower, less than 1%. 2 of the games, Jax and Fish in Miami, the Bills will be underdog. so lets just say it's 1.25:1 against. So multiply that, now add i na factor for every other game you mention and that number drops real fast. Actually just saw on one site not certain am interpreting correctly but lists them at .1% chance. Another site give the m1/250 to win division which is even less.

What I don't understand is why two teams that both have byes can't play the following Thursday night. I see next week the Jet's are playing NE. Why not play on Thursday? It's doesn't seem that hard to figure out how to make the schedule work. Granted byes only happen from around week #4 thru #12, but could reduce the number of teams playing on Sunday then again Thursday.

Happy 50th Heidi Game
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to Marv's Neighbor's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I also lived in NYC, but took my father and I a little time to figure out what was going on and turn on the radio and listen to the end of the Jet's broadcast. -

I remember watching it too, finally figured out what was going on, tuned it in on radio, by then Raiders had scored the two TD's -
Off-Season WR trade market
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to billsfan89's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I've thought about this possibly happening too. Atlanta has two other good receivers so could let him got to use $$ elsewhere. -
I Wonder What it is Like to be Released in the NFL
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to Irv's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Before I was "Formally from Rochester" I worked there at Kodak, they were laying off so many they let you stick around for a month after being told you were laid off with full access to everything some were in areas where they actually were expected to work, others could spend all the time looking for a new job.. Initially they were walking people out, but found 99% of the people did nothing bad so let them stay. Yes you're correct, I was just thinking more in terms of not a traditional paper playbook anymore. I don't even know if they bother to get the Surfaces back as much as just immediately terminate the account. That would be an interesting job to have. Being told the person is being cut, terminate the account before the player even knows. -

Wasn't everyone raving about Dallas O-line 3 years ago. Did I read that there are only 2 or 3 of the five still there? -
Three Holding Penalties on One Play?
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to ChevyVanMiller's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think it would need to be in the same spot to top 3 holding penalties! But as noted above that could be called for "piling on"! PS We can now say this place is going to the dogs!
