    Whales I assume are big bettors? So if the line moves toward the Ravens more closer to the game it means "bettors in the know" are putting money on the Ravens? And vice versa if it moves toward the Bills?

    Not necessarily whales, but the sharps. Those are the betting pros. They typically start coming in day of the game

    I've been thinking about that TD pass and catch on the 4th and 1. The best part about it is that Baltimore and others now know it's in our playbook. Allen can drop back to the 35 and throw a dart to the back of the end zone and take a TD, instead of doing the tush push.

    If they had to see that one pass to think that, they've been under a rock for the past 5 yrs

    If you were starting a franchise, would you want Burrow or Stroud?

     

    That's all it comes down to for me and my choice is Burrow by a longshot. Texans have more young talent, but Bengals will figure it out.

     

    Look what the Bills are doing with Allen and a somewhat average roster around him.

    Their problem is the owner. It's not Burrow.

    For me it's Bill, Ravens, Chiefs and Bengals. Texans are mid 

    The Bengals have a lot to fix. Their o-line and defense, outside of Hendrickson, sucks. They also have huge contracts coming up with Chase, Higgins, and Hendrickson. They can't pay all three and their owner is cheap as hell.

    Bass was likely instructed to miss the point after to avoid a tie. Nonsense, you say? If they didn't want a tie, then why not just go for the two point conversion? Simple: To avoid an unnecessary goal line situation. Bass hit from 49 in the wind. He's fine.

     

    The Bills had, and accomplished, three goals at Gillette:

    1. Rest key starters

    2. Give reps to depth players and starters returning from injury

    3. Prevent New England from selecting the first pick of the 2025 NFL draft.

     

    When the Bills ran a failed play on 4th and 10 from well inside minus territory, it was clear they intended to keep the Patriots from the number one selection in the upcoming draft.

     

    Who cares? Why are you digesting a meaningless game when we have our first playoff game this weekend?

    Have people ever played football or any competitive sport? Pro athletes don’t take, especially football players. Why do they care about next year or a guy who might take their spot? It’s so stupid when fans get mad at players for winning “meaningless” games. It’s their job and they are going to try to win. 
     

     

    The players are going to be competitive and play, yes. Do you really think an ounce of game planning went into this game? Do you really think the play calling was with a win first priority? No, they were 100% ok with losing the game.

    Pit vs Balt has a good chance for being a Saturday game.

    It would make sense in fairness. Both played Saturday so next Saturday no one has an advantage. Same with Bills, Broncos for Sunday. If you play Ravens, Steelers Sunday, they both get 8 days and Bills, Broncos only get 6 days on Saturday.

     

    But of course, NFL only cares about ratings.

    Anyone else notice, after Allen's first target to Coleman in the EZ falls incomplete (at exactly 8:20 of the 1st quarter), Coleman looks back in Allen's direction, points upward and makes (what I interpreted as) a "throw it higher next time" gesture?

     

    I was fine with his idea and agree with him, BUT to make that gesture to Allen in front of the home crowd was completely uncalled for and totally unearned at this point in his career.  

     

    I interpreted this as an arrogant, unaccomplished rookie trying to show up the MVP frontrunner in front of the home crowd, and i don't like it one bit.  

     

    Am i alone in this opinion or are there different interpretations out there?  

     

    Diggs, is that you?

    I feel like this is pretty immaterial as the Giants need a QB and the Pats don't.

    Drafting a QB this year with #1 pick will be an awful decision. It's a bad year to need a QB and have a high draft pick.

     

    It's like the year we drafted Manuel. He was only picked to satiate the fans who wanted the Bills to pick a QB in the first. Major reach and set us back.

    Yeah.....Samuel and Hamlin aren't playing for sure.  But I wouldn't mind seeing what it looks like with Rapp and Bishop starting if there is a chance of it.

    I'd like to see Hyde get some time in and see what he and Rapp look like at this point
