That’s not the correct way to think about cap numbers. Realize that while all other costs are increasing, Allen’s cost is stable. So Allen’s cost has relatively decreased. 

 

Let’s say Allen has a cap hit of $40 million, and the cap is $200 million.  He’s taking 20% of cap, and that leaves 80% for the rest of the team. 
 

But if cap goes up to $300 million, and Allen hit stays the same (that’s the key component of the analysis), then it’s 13% of total, leaving 87% for the rest of the team. 

This is mathematically true but players will want a higher proportion of money down the road then when Josh signed.  This might negate the savings differential.

He’s worn on me too. To be fair I think his business is built around actionable data for betting which is not something I care about. His editorializing on Twitter has been really bad though.

Yeah, I should also clarify I’m really referring to his tweets.

You guys are both correct in your assessments.  The new TV and YouTube contracts are over $100B thru the next 10 years. It will be interesting to see how much goes to the Cap and the increase per position group.  Obviously QB & WR have exploded, LB just signed a $100M....

 16-2 when Josh gets 10+ carries.

 

 

 

This is funny to me because it sounds like the Bills use Allen to run out the clock, which of course isn’t the case. It’s just a testament to how effective he is as a runner and how often it directly correlates to winning.

Absolutely. It's game day. It's win or go home. It's down to the three best teams remaining in the AFC. It will be two around 6:30pm. Go Bills!!!

Me too!  I am starting to calm down a little though.  I was real bad when I woke up a few hours ago.  Usually I am fine.  I was even fine for the Chiefs divisional game last year.

 

I guess for me its the unkown.  I know what to expect when we play the Chiefs because we play them so much.  We rarely play the Bengals.

Yes seriously. It makes no sense. What does it have to do with being fun at parties?

He thought his post was funny but as you said, it didn’t make sense. Now he feels attacked so he’s attacking you.

I want Allen running Philly’s offense. They make it easy. Allen is a better thrower and runner that Hurts. Knox is Goedert. Diggs is better than either Brown or Smith. Davis is worse than Brown and Smith, but big game Gabe is always lurking, so that’s a wash. Buffalo’s RBs can do what the Eagles RBs do.

 

But on to this Bengals game. Can’t let Bengals run the ball. Need to gang tackle Mixon, Perine on screens, then no YAC to Chase, then knock it downs against Higgins. Stuff Boyd at the LOS.

 

Coverage should be very tight. Over the top help on Higgins and Chase. Collapse the pocket… don’t give Burrow lanes to run for easy pop out 3&7 first downs. Contain and collapse. Burrow eats sacks on those. 
 

Go BILLLS!!!

What does your post mean? I’ve read it 3 times and it makes no sense. The jets interest in Brady has been known for weeks btw 

He was apparently implying that our QB coach would be interviewing for the Jests OC job instead of being at the Divisional Playoff game...🤷‍♂️ I don't think anyone's accused him of being smart.

Biggie Smalls. You know, The Notorious B.I.G. The song is Dead Wrong. It also has Eminem in it. The short bus dropped off everyone today I see.

 When Josh runs that many times it puts a ton of pressure on the defense.

You can't just key on pass defense at that point. It shouldn't be done in Sept., Oct, or Nov., but once December hits it's time to....Release the Kraken.

Well, the original track definitely did not have Eminem on it. They did a post mortum duet album.

Ok

 

I think they are going to put a spy on Josh like Miami did to try and limit any impromptu scrambles.  Of course, spies aren't that effective in designed QB runs because they just get blocked like anyone else.   In a win or go home game, I expect everything to be on the table.

First time all year I'm nervous before a game. I'm as confident as ever and think we win by multiple scores, just really not ready for the season to end lol.

 

 Strangely I'm not nervous at all. Can't explain it, but I have a good feeling about today.

Apologies, didn't know that. I hear a lot of misogyny where I live and get tired of it.

Not a bit nervous.  As a fan at home I have absolutely no impact on this game, not even an infinitesimal amount.  
 

I also think we’re going to stomp the ***** out of them, so there’s that.
