It was like they could never be favored by enough, and bettors were putting big money on them every single week because of their ridiculous record ATS. I would imagine Vegas lost a lot overall on those bets, fwiw. Yeah, I remember that, but also, or division sucked rhino nuts for six games every season too. Throw in a few more games against siht teams, ... Just sayin'. Dallas is one of the two best teams in the league arguably, it's likely that they square off against SF for the NFC championship. If we can beat them ... 🤞 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 34 minutes ago, YattaOkasan said: Why do you think the NFC is a lot better than AFC? I think AFC is +8 in the H2H, and I dont know that Cowboys are that battle tested (only 3 of their 13 games are against teams 0.500 or better right now). Agree with alot of your assessments though on play style and areas of concern; though not sure about poor defense in the second half as were are top 10 in pp2ndhalf. https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/afc-vs-nfc-record-win-loss-record-conbined-2023 https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-2nd-half-points-per-game And to your point, unless I am mistaken, they only have one win against a winning team tight now. And that was the Eagles at home after the Eagles did a run of Cowboys (Eagles win), Chiefs, Bills overtime win, San Fran, Cowboys (Cowboys win). Apart from their last win, they have been beating up on bad teams and getting smacked by anyone actually who is now currently in contention for their division in December. Again, they've trounced bad teams. They are legitimately talented this year. But the idea that the NFC is a super gauntlet just doesn't hold up. The opposite in fact: it's extremely top heavy with three teams primed for runs (Eagles, Niners, Cowboys), decent playoff teams (Lions, Seahawks) and a whole lot of mediocrity in between. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally it would be but this year it doesn't seem to be. The time where the weather is really different is february. Its in the 40s or 50s here and you guys have snow and freezing temperatures. We occasionally get that in february here also...typical an ice or snow storm once a year. Its high 30s in the morning here and has been about 55 to 65 during the day. So if its 40 or 35 sunday afternoon in Buffalo that means the weather is not an issue. Today it is pouring rain and 51 degrees out. So if it rains sunday and is 40 out that is not much different. If it were going to be 9 degrees out and sleeting sunday then you could see the weather being a factor but as of right now it won't be. BTW I live in North Texas and am from (and heading back to) Central NY. So please yes LMAO all you want but there isn't any difference in the weather at the moment that is going to affect this game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikePJ76 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 my big concern sunday is Pass Interference. Dallas has scored so much in part to the amount of PI's they are the beneficiary of. They have the second most PI called in their favor at 14. If you have watched Dallas at all you will know they have trounced some bad teams who could not compete with them on the line of scrimmage and still hung in their and fought but then got killed with soft PI that saved drives and setup easy scores. it happened vs the rams, seahawks, Giants.....They seemingly are in 3rd down a bunch and get flags on the secondary all the time. If Buffalo's secondary is disciplined this week and does not commit PI they are going to have a real chance to win this. Dak has been sacked a bunch, mostly when smith was out but I can't see Buffalo getting to him much...Its going to take great coverage on Defense and probably 31 to 35 points on offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 It stinks that AJ is out, but... Leonard Floyd is having an exceptional season. Greg Rousseau and Von Miller both had good weeks against Kansas City. Ed Oliver has been beastly in the middle. I think his absence is survivable. I'm more concerned about Micah. The dropoff from him to Rapp/Lewis is big. Not only that, it reduces the degree to which the Bills can operate out of dime packages, and it potentially puts Tyrel Dodsen on the field more often against the pass, which is not ideal. Either way, as others have said, the Cowboys have injuries, too. Bills need to take care of business. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew21PA Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Interesting that dak struggles if they get behind qb rating drops to 80 on the road that could be too much to conquer especially in buffalo in that environment and against this bills team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
