It’s always amazing to me how few people understand betting lines.

I think some fans have incredibly high (and somewhat unreasonable) expectations for this offense. They’ve been putting up points and yards with the best of them. We want to see the wide open big TDs that Miami is scoring, but that’s the anomaly. We just missed another Davis TD yesterday, by a toe. Some play calls simply didn’t work. I agree they need to specifically target Kincaid, but he made a couple of mistakes early and didn’t get into the flow. Big week this week. The Fish are probably going to score, and we will need to keep pace.

The quick outside throws didn’t work at all. There had to be something he saw during preparation that made him think they would. I didn’t think Dorsey called a bad game; just a couple of “huh?” plays that were stuffed. I guess in my “glass half full” mind I am hoping he’s just trying to put a lot of stuff out there on film for defenses to see.

Just curious what people are thinking going into Miami week against Tua and the video game offense.

I haven’t looked at the play-by-play but it appeared to me the Bills made a concerted effort to run the ball on 1st and 2nd downs in the first half yesterday, and those plays were simply stuffed. It wasn’t the game plan, it was the execution and Washington was prepared to defend the run. I know everyone is up in arms about the 4th down call. I get it, I really do, but the Bills had not been “successful” all game in short yardage and it was a safe play call, the DL just made a good play. Only in the 4th quarter did the Bills finally wear down the Commandos and find success running. The Davis drop was a big drive killer. I think Dorsey is doing fine…we are spreading the ball around and still getting it to Diggs. Not every game is going to be the offense moving like a hot knife through butter. Washington has talent on defense.

Meh. 2-2 today, obviously way off on the Broncos. They are terrible. I did grab the under on the Bills so at least I won the day.

Spencer Brown did not have a “great” game if that is what you are implying. He was given tons of help and was still beaten pretty regularly by Crosby…the Bills simply had a good plan and Allen got the ball out quickly.

I read that the DC Bills Backers bought 409 tickets that were all distributed to Bills fans. I think there is going to be a very vocal Buffalo contingent in the stands, although fans in Washington are finally back on the bandwagon with Snyder gone and the team off to a good start. Should be a fun atmosphere.

Happy GameDay…the first “normal” one for me this season! Cooking up a little crabcake Benedict in a bit for brunch (with mimosas of course) and plan on enjoying a day of football starting with a big Bills win. Let’s Go, Buffalo!!! 19-1, Babyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!

Pro picks can go here too, right? Here’s who I like today: Bills -5.5 Jets +2.5 Broncos +6 (yes, you read that correctly) Lions -3

Love the Bills at -5.5 today. This team has established a pattern over the past few years; when we win, we win big, and unless something crazy happens getting the healthy Bills laying less than a TD against a decidedly inferior opponent is about as good a wager as you can find in today’s NFL.

1-2 with my picks yesterday…Utah St. had the ball down 7 and threw a pick in the red zone to lose that one, and UL Lafayette let UB get within 7 after being up 24. Bad beats galore. At least Utah covered.

Utah a nice win. @Buffalo716 that FSU win was a gift. No way I would have bet it.

My goodness, it’s almost as if Dorsey might be competent????

Knox is an excellent blocker. But I agree with the game plan. I think the Bills’ D will keep Washington from putting up a ton of points.

Crabcakes. You’re close to Maryland.

Don’t sleep on Clemson as a home dog.

It makes sense to me. Throwing with the wind the ball can “float” or sail…into the wind you’re cutting through it.

My faves today are Utah -4, Utah St +5.5, and UL Lafayette -11 (vs. UB). As always, gamble at your own risk!

That injury report is a beautiful thing...

if you lived there you should know it’s Silver Spring.

i was going to come in and post something similar; Q has some juice and while we don’t want Knox to miss significant time I think we will be fine this week if he can’t go.

Looking at the National Hurricane Center, it does seem that the storm will move past the DC area prior to game time on Sunday…

Ed, I’m with Xwnyer — can’t believe you aren’t able to download the YTTV app on a smart TV. The good news is I don’t think you have to. Everything I’ve seen suggests that if you are a Sunday Ticket subscriber then you can watch on either YTTV or YouTube as long as you’re signed into the same account.
