Kirby Jackson Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Should not better coaching and the addition of top players drafted for Sean's system be better than Rex in wins and losses? You think Tyrod will outduel Derek Carr and Jameis Winston? I miss the days when I could Billieve. The Bills will be favorites at home vs. Tampa (maybe like 2 points). Oakland is going to lose about 5 games. At the Bills is probably pretty high on the list of "may lose" games. I'm not banking on either as wins but certainly am not calling them losses either. 4-4 to 5-3 That's a push and if they can go 1-5 as an underdog against anyone else you win. That would be a terrible bet. They will beat the jets twice and probably win 3 games out of the first 8. O/u 4 through the first 8 even bet I'm in. Make that O/U 3.5 and you get two free wins against the Jets. You just predicted 2-6 and when I asked you to put the money up you want the line at 3.5?!? So you really don't think that they will be 2-6 you just made that up to "strengthen" your argument? I'll take 3.5 but you don't get 2-1 anymore.

It was inevitable being the Mahomes zealot you are. It won't be long before you're the Chiefs version of Jimmy Spags, only showing up on the board to talk sh*t.

I see 4 or 5 wins in that 1st 8. If you want in at 3.5 too I'll be happy to oblige. Edited June 10, 2017 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonCents Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Are we good then on o/u 3.5 through the 1st 8? i think it's a fair bet, but I bet on everything and making that bet would have me going against the Bills and that's a wasted season. I'm not sure I'm willing to do that for 1k. You get the Jets twice then have to go 2-4 against "established" programs. I think Carolina is a win. So I'd be betting that the Bills don't upset one of 5 other teams and again I'd be forced to cheer against the Bills. You have me in a corner Kirby, I will say no.

Don't be surprised though if I call you out when I see you saying 2-6 through the first 8 though. Fwiw, I think that they probably need to be at least 5-3 to have a path to the playoffs. The 2nd half of the schedule will have to look something like this: win vs. Saints, 2 division wins, Colts at home and 1 of Chargers or Chiefs. That is the path to 10-6 at this point (IMO). Obviously a lot can change. Some teams will emerge and others will fall back. Injuries will be key as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was breaking Jeff's balls and looking at it and trying to take my fandom out of it I see 4-4. Jets, Jets, Panthers, then it's safe to think they steal one somewhere in the next 5 weeks. We shall see. I'm not sure what amount of money it would take to kiss the season goodbye but I don't want to know! I'm hoping the Bills start well because it's almost time to fork over Sunday ticket money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took a few years off from fantasy football but now that DFS is back in New York I'm going to enjoy my Sundays, regardless of what the Bills do.

That's the likely scenario to me at this point (as I think Maclin is coming). The second 1st though will allow them to get one of them. I don't think that they will be able to get in the top 3 where I think 2 QBs will go. If I had to guess the Bills will be .500ish and the Chiefs a game or so better. I'd say the picks will be like 12 and 18. A ton can change though between now and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will Sean trade 2 1sts and 2 2nds for that?I really doubt it. I think they will try to middle it and get a late 1st or 2nd round prospect on QB while drafting for needs.

You may not be able to get Allen or Darnold (or whoever is the flavor of the month in April) but Rosen is probably realistic. Even if he has a great year teams will worry about the character.
