10.5 pt. dogs at Green Bay???

Wow.  Really didn't expect that after yesterday's results.  I guess Vegas thinks the betting public is buying into the "the Vikings didn't show up" line of thinking because they were coming off GB and looking ahead to the Rams.  Whatever.  It's important to note, however, that Green Bay is literally two lucky plays from being 0-3, and certainly not playing like a juggernaut.

 

As fun and unexpected as yesterday's beat down of Minnesota was to watch, it is equally important how they follow it up at Lambeau.

I’m a little surprised too.  But the betting public loves the Pack, it’s two tough road games in a row, and you can normally expect a let down after a huge win like this.  In this case, though, I don’t foresee a let down; I think this was a win that builds the confidence of a team many had completely written off, and its rookie QB.

I mean, the Vikes game was more about how poor the Vikings played as anything.  It's a fluke win for the Bills until they prove otherwise.

It wasn’t a fluke win, but it proves how quickly things can go south for even a very good team when they have O-line problems.

That's some lazy-ass analysis right there.  It was a historic win and upset by NFL standards, on the road with a rookie QB against a legitimate Super Bowl contender.

 

The word "fluke" doesn't come into play here.

I think Vegas will see it as a fluke win.  If the Bills win a few more like that, the betting line will settle down, if they lose a bunch, it's back to being the Buffalo Buffoons etc.

He (and the team) earned that right, IMHO. I´m sure they were embarrassed & angered by how they were being portrayed to the outside world. Just goes to show you that players do read/listen to what is said about them regardless of what the players say to the contrary.

It's funny but disrespectful at the same time. I bet McDermott has a talk with him.

 

Lol, “disrespectful.” Cousins was acting like an ass when he did that. The only thing that would surprise me is if Tre is the first person to clown him for it.

So then Tre is acting like an ass too?  I don't think that goes over well with McClappity, we'll see.

These posts are as bad as Petermans play.  

 

You should get a hdtv and watch what Josh Allen did to that elite defense.

I have a 60" TV, but I guess these days that's small...

 

It was fun, but at the same time it was one game, a game where I think the Vikes were more concerned about the Rams than the Bills.

The Bills winning yesterday was no fluke.

 

The Vikings aren't nearly as good as they thought they were.  They learned that last weekend.  The LA Rams are the class of the NFC - a status the Vikings thought they owned.  The Vikings may have already thrown in the towel, IMHO.  And the Vikings threw in the towel before yesterday's game with the Buffalo Bills.

I'm not sold on the Rams just yet, we'll see.

Throughout the years I've heard this phrase , and I rarely, if ever buy it. This is the NFL......"on any given Sunday." You absolutely cannot take anything for granted. 

 

The only time a team is really looking ahead is 1) at the end of the year when a good team is resting up for the playoffs,  and 2) when a team is so bad, they've given up, and are "running for the bus."

You’re not sold on the Rams but the Vikings are and decided to let the Bills win ??‍♂️??‍♂️??‍♂️

 

What a load of ???

 

Goff looks like the most accurate qb in football. No one can stop Gurley I have no idea what your not sold on.

Rams have to prove to me they can win in the playoff's, until then I'm not sold.

 

Even the Kelly led Bills had stinker games like the Vikes had yesterday due to not being focused on the task at hand, not sure what your problem is tbh.

Dont have a problem.    Just think everything you posted makes no sense.  

 

Rams look elite.   (Sorry their punt returner fumbled over and over in the playoffs)  

 

Not sure why that’s relevant to the 3-0 2018 Rams who have outscored their opponents by 64 points in 3 games ??‍♂️??‍♂️??‍♂️

 

 

Allen punished the Vikings defense.   The Bills defense punished Cousins.   

 

Anthony Barr was thinking about the Rams when Allen hurdled him huh ?

Are you too young to recall some of the games the Bills lost in the 90's against crap teams that remained crappy for years?  I mean it happens. The Bills are not all of the sudden a playoff team...  Let's not go anointing anyone anything just yet plz.

 

As far as the Rams go, before ppl start calling them the "class of the NFC", I want to see some playoff wins, but that's just me.

 

IMO the Vikes definitely looked past the Bills yesterday, it's obvious.

what's a fluke win?

 

I'll admit, I didn't expect them to win but what I watched yesterday was no fluke. I saw a well prepared team and a defense that stepped up big time as well as a young rookie QB who looked pretty competent running that offense.

 

 

no, it was no fluke.

Crazy part of the Rams is how much of a different team they are this year. Vikes may have gotten comfortable. 

Ap ran for 120 yards against the pack. The guy was using a wheelchair. I hope shady is healthy cause we will need him with a big day.

If someone would have wanted to bring in AP this offseason I probably would have thought, nah, just grab a young kid.  But damn, he's looking good so far...

Yep the Vikings definetly planned to get embarrassed at home.  

 

Kirk Cousins never takes his job seriously.  

 

Mike Zimmer loves days off 

 

Maybe Cousins put 20 million on the Bills ??
