That's true, didn't think about that, most businesses don't have a salary cap! Though some act like they do.

Not that I'm knocking him either way, but did he buy the boots or did he have the Bills pay for them. That sort of thing is done all the time in businesses where you give recognition gifts, so not knocking it, just wondering.

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.

Could have happened in warm ups, him and Peterman tossing the ball back and forth, and next thing...... Well you get the idea of what happened next! Sorry couldn't resist. And I'll admit I actually liked Peterman or at least didn't have the hatred of many here.

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

I've thought about this possibly happening too. Atlanta has two other good receivers so could let him got to use $$ elsewhere.

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.

Because he can! As long as anyone can join this board and immediately start new threads we'll continue to have alot of trash here.

Fixed it for you!

Too bad we let Peterman go, could have traded him their for a 2nd.

OK was thinking seemed to fast for their contracts to all be up by now.

I think if nothing else between him and Johnson and maybe Lewis, the team has good solid depth

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?

Ok I'm playing a guy this week in Fantasy and saw one of his guys Gordon had a bye and just thought of Melvin so assumed it was Chargers, forgot all about Josh with NE

Why the number of first round QB's who flame out is probably the highest position on the field. I recall seeing a chart back around Sept or so, was around 30% of 1st round QB's become very good to elite. Another 30% were so-so, but hang around for a number of years.

Also San Diego And Yes they are still San Diego to me! Everytime I see LAR listed I think they are referring to the Raiders.

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!

If Lewis has more than year left on his contract, won't happen. For all the "Ralph is Cheap" comments over the years, Paul Brown is Really Cheap! IMO that's why Lewis still has a job, Brown never wanted to eat the contract. At least now Jackson can blame things on Lewis!

That is true, maybe not as bad but think there's still enough holes to fill and even with a lower pick no guarantees that one will hit either. Plus with higher pick could trade down for more picks.
