    If the Steelers beat the Ravens tonight, I don't really care who wins this game, but the Texans have no shot to into Arrowhead and win. Thought maybe the Chargers had a shot. 

     

    KC can rest their starters another week - go into AFCC with a month off

    Wondering if he’s limited? I’d take him off of kick return this week cause he’s that important to punt return

    I'd be fine with him back there just taking care of the ball and making good decisions - no pressure for any big returns

    They all went to St. Francis like myself, but they all played for St. John Fisher in college football (D3).  Caldwell, Telesco, C. Polian were all buds, kind of close, but not the same year as Daboll.  Polian was in homeroom with one of my cousins for four years as Frannies does homeroom alphabetically.  Then they split off based on their academic abilities.

     

    My brother and every cousin went to Frannies so have some history.  They’ve all lost their jobs as of recently, but doesn’t mean they may not regain these positions in other places.  I didn’t know them.

    When I was in grade school I used to go to coach Bob Torgalski's basketball camp at St Francis - week long sleepover camp - good times.  The Braves came one day one year for a 'practice'.  'Crazy George' used to come and do tricks

    When the owner's goal is to squeeze every penny out of his fanbase, it makes sense to hire a fraud and a con man as HC.

     

    Rex is the perfect coach, if your goal is to maximize quarterly returns. He's 100% a marketing & sales department hire.

     

    Woody would be cutting blank checks if he cared about winning. He doesn't.

    And Russ Brandon would fit the con man GM role perfectly.  Maybe he could work out a New York Series where the Jets play one home game a year in NYS

    More fuel to add to Allen's MVP case:

     

    Allen is at the very bottom of average WR separation while Lamar is at the very top.

    This is a crazy one.  Email it to each of the voters!

    I’d say it depends how much you think the betting public’s opinion lines up with the voters’ opinions.  If one guy puts a ton money on a player (say $1M) to win an award, the house may lower that person’s odds to lessen their liability on that end, and will want to attract money on the other players.  The sports books are there to make money, so they want as much diversified action as they can get so that they’re guaranteed to win via the juice embedded in the odds they’re offering.  There should be some relevancy between the odds and who wins each award, but there’s no guarantee.

    OK - I guess my feeling is that in this case there is such a small and specific set of voters I wouldn't necessarily expect the distribution of their votes to follow public opinion

    to be relevant and accurate the odds just need to reflect how a reasonable majority of the betting public feels at a given moment

     

    doesn't necessarily have to align w how the mvp guys actually vote

    So then it is not relevant at all as a barometer to whether Josh will get MVP

    Josh’s odds went up in his favor after the Ravens game. Josh will win easy. 
     

    5 Sportsbooks listed here
     

     

    BetMGM -250

     

    Draftkings -500

     

    Caesar’s -400

     

    Fanduel -470

     

    Bet rivers -250

    I find the sports book odds weird in this case - to be relevant and accurate it would need to be based on an analysis of how each of the 50 people vote and nothing more.  Is the assumption they have some inside info on how each of the voters are voting?
