That kind of money is often from sharps/groups. They don't make a habit out of losing money. The splits between # of tickets betting (in this case, most people are betting the Bengals - these are your average joes) and the amount of money being bet (in this case, the vast majority of money is coming in on the Bills) indicates that the sharps/betting groups in vegas are betting on the Bills. Its never a sure indication of which way a game is going to go obviously, but as I said, the sharps/betting groups don't make it a habit of losing money.

This Bengals team has actually been to a Super Bowl. This game is not our Super Bowl, your cockiness and pathetic language about the Bengals is what many over on our site referenced. You’ve been exposed for what you are so this is the treatment you get. This isn’t the treatment all the other opposing fan bases get when they visit. Just the trolls and baiters.

Caesar Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 1 hour ago, boyst said: i don't think the bills will try to tee up pressure. there is too much room for error there. burrow is hot or cold and thats not just from game to game. the entire bengals offense can lull themselves into a regressive state. i do not believe this is anything special - just their mindset. it's sentiment echoed through the team. because of this i could see them being up 7-14 points on buffalo through the first half to come out cold and comfortable in the 2nd. where i am going with this Re: the OL.... i do not know the Bengals OL right now. NO ONE DOES. but what i do know is the Bills defense. I do know that Frazier has taken more liberty with his gameplan then other seasons. i know that he has dialed in new wrinkles and looked to expose flaws of QB's. So, while i cannot look at the Bengals OL because it is a complete wildcard - so much that i am not putting it as a factor for the outcome of the game - i am looking at Burrow. burrow is going to be gameplanned like early Tua. A stoic big pocket QB who makes mistakes when properly attacked but can just as soon sting you. the pressure to get on him is going to be minimalized which is a buffalo forte. the Bills didn't attack the fins ol - they attacked the qb who was not Tua or Burrow. he was a rookie who had a respectable showing and impressed me. the bills should go into this game with the plan to control and regulate burrow and his 2.2 seconds per dropback. they should play the gameplan they did against another QB successfully (brady) who had the same abilities...collapse the pocket with hands up to disrupt Burow. do this and jam his wr's. blitz and spy on any backfield setup because perine is going to be there blocking. mixon won't be a good blocker short of just chops. the bills can win the battle on the trenches. offense gets you to the playoffs. time clock management and running gets you to the championship. defense wins you championships. so while i walked around your question - i can directly answer it that the bills were hurting on defense with jordan phillips out and also appeared very lackluster. neither team was aggressive on the line. the bills line against miami was set to stop the run and let the rest of the defense take care of the pass. it is apples and oranges. josh allen has the potential for 500 yards offense this weekend. edit...i wrote this with several interruptions so it is likely fragmented I can tell you we know the Bengals oline this week without a doubt. LT Carmen, considered a 2nd round bust from last year's draft. Couldnt win a spot on a terrible line last year and has practiced the last 2 seasons at guard. Good run blocker, has good length but not good pass block mechanics. LG Volson, 4th round rookie - has good reps and bad ones, improved throughout the season. C Karras, 2nd best lineman next to Cappa, been solid but not overwhelming. RG, Scharping, another former 2nd rounder we picked up off waivers from the Texans this season. Very big guy, not a good run blocker, ok pass blocker. RT Adeniji, started at guard last season, was terrible. He is better at tackle but LT is his spot. Big guy that has been better this season in back up roles, still not confident. The only potential change would be Carmen being beaten out by another sub or practice squad tackle that started for us last year. I liked your point "attacked the QB not the line", very interesting. I have no doubts the Bills defense last week will in no way resemble what we will see. Mixon is beyond a terrible pass blocker, Perine is a good pass blocker. You guys do not need a spy. Jamming Tee or Boyd might work, Chase is a beast at the LOS, not sure I would jam him. The Bills can definitely win at the line on defense but I think you are severely under rating our defense. We are very solid with Hill and Reader in the middle and Hendrickson and Hubbard on the ends. Solid vs the run and we get good pressure, but cant get the sack to save our lives. Very frustrating. We have had excellent LB play as have the Bills. Josh could go for 500 and 4 TDs vs anyone but we have one of the best passing defenses as to completion percentage, even with 2 questionable cornerbacks. We do have good safeties that help a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully no bengals fans misquote me here I’m not tryin to say Skylar is better than tua 😂…but there’s no way tua makes that throw. defense played great…Milano and edmunds were flying all over the field plugging running lanes and disrupting passing lanes. Secondary held hill and waddle in check. Score was high because each team just got so many drives. 220 yards allowed and 2 offensive tds (one of which was a very short field) is very impressive Skylar deserves a lot of credit for buying himself extra time when the pocket broke down “Are you saying Skylar Thompson is better than Joe Burrow??? I knew that’s what you were saying!!! What?? Did you just say that every Bills fan on earth agrees that’s Skylar Thompson is the best QB in the league? I never would have thought, but it’s apparently true.” 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caesar Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 1 hour ago, Beck Water said: Yes 😀 When the Bills pass rush works, it works because we're getting consistent pressure up the middle as well as from the ends. The Bills D, if you haven't figure it out, is kind of weird. It manages to be a top D as far as points and yards, year after year. 3 out of the last years now. At the same time, we seldom send players to the Pro Bowl or have them recognized as All-Pro. It's sort of a "whole is greater than the sum of its parts" creation. It's kind of like a boa constrictor, it gets in your way but you look at it and think it's just a snake and it kind of has a small mouth - what can it do to you? Then you get to the end of the game, and find that it's wrapped around your ribs 3 times and the jaws are coming down over your head. A distressing number of the points our D has given up were the result of offensive turnovers that put the D in a horrid position. I ask because Burrow does much better with pressure from the outside, as he likes to step up into the pocket and has good feel to avoid outside pressure. Anything up the gut is usually a sack. Joe rarely throws the ball away and hardly ever takes risks in losing the ball, he is 2 hands on the ball at all times, and is fine with being sacked. He will take to the very last second to get the ball out with outside rushers coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Jeez, between ESPN and the Cowherd show today, betting on the Bengals sounds like the play this weekend. Even Greg Cosell, while lauding Josh Allen, said the Bills offense just is not very talented,,,nor is the defense right now. It's all Josh and whether he is on that day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how people can possibly say the Bills offense is not talented when they are still in the top 5 in points for this season despite playing a game less than the teams in front of them. And it's not like our points have come at the expense of mostly bad defenses. We've played some very good defenses this season. Some more than once. They put up 34 last week and could've been closer to like 50 if a couple catches had been squeezed a bit better.

Even Greg Cosell, while lauding Josh Allen, said the Bills offense just is not very talented,,,nor is the defense right now. It's all Josh and whether he is on that day. So, i get the view that the bills O is not that talented. it's the number 2 o in the nfl, and quietly (and i cant believe im saying this) one of the most balanced given how well the bills run the ball (not that they call the most balanced plays, but that they are good at both). Given that, and how great JA17 is, one would expect to see a 1992 cowboys roster out there, but you have diggs allen and everyone else. the reality on O is that our OL is actually above average, and solid at run blocking and pass blocking when we mix it up, we struggle on short yardage goal line stuff and protecting against stunts and overloads, our RBs w hines and cook and motor are actually good, TE is OK (knox isn't enough), and for the passing game the D has to constantly scheme diggs away, and even then we have good production. On D, no von and no hyde stinks, but it's an above average DL that does well vs the run, our two LBs are on freaking tilt this season, and right now w tre and elam/banford playing well, we are back to a pretty sick secondary. I don't think anyone can say our D is not talented, it just lacks top line playmakers. i feel confident going into a game vs cinci w a mash unit offensive line.
