ColoradoBills

Out a minimum of 3 weeks. Add a week or so to get back into form should take him coming back for Week 8 in Buffalo! Go Bills!

While you cannot count on it there are fans who do this. Instead of sitting on a waiting list from the club for season tickets you can "jump" over the waiting list by buying a PSL from a fan wanting to give them up.

Poyer's current contract is up next year.

It has more to do on how the gameday tickets and PSLs are divided by the owners.

All true but the DL cap spending will take a nose dive next year. If Taron wants to be paid as the highest NCB in the league he will probably not get that in Buffalo but I don't see that happening. The biggest variable is Hyde and Poyer. Will the Bills want to sign them to big extensions in their 30s? Beane could fit Taron's extension next year with a lower hit in 2022 and another consideration is whether the cap jumps more than usual after the 2023 TV contracts. I see it as "on the fence" right now with Taron.

That's what I figured it would be. If your team is playing well it seems to me you are not going to lose money and probably make a few $s.

It looks like there are 3rd party PSL resale sites out there. FWIW. http://www.seatdibs.com/

With Dane and Levi questionable I wonder who gets elevated this week, Cam Lewis or Wildgoose?

So what's the thought that PSLs cause some fans to pass on attending games makes a 60K stadium seem more reasonable?

You need to wear that while selling Christmas Trees in front of the stadium. https://talesfromtheamericanfootballleague.com/cookie-gilchrist-afl-entrepreneur/

it was @RiotActthat brought up the short field scenario. I will admit I watched DVOA a bunch when it came out and I feel I'm fairly educated about it's calculations but I am not an expert at all. I haven't looked at them since about the middle of last season and I would be interested in their latest update (I believe you said tomorrow is an update). I would like to see how the rankings compare to the "standard" NFL rankings. If I got time tomorrow and don't paint my garage shop like I should I will throw out a thread comparing the two.

True but DVOA is an attempt to break down a "play by play" adjusted stat against the norm. I'm not going to get into the pro's and con's of that. I do accept it's importance but not a lot of media or average NFL fan uses DVOA as a true ranking for talking points. I'm not criticizing DVOA but the general consensus today for ranking is "yards for or against". Comparing those against DVOA is about as extreme as you can get.

Another good point. The problem is I don't think there is anything that reflects even the basics let alone what you just mentioned. I don't want to derail a weekly game thread on this kind of stuff but it just seems to me that so much relevance is given nowadays to "rankings" of all kinds but the details that go into the rankings are so poorly considered. As much as I feel yards for or against should not be the end all in ranking offenses and defenses a recent change in the "stats" on the official NFL.com site has removed the "Total Yards" for offenses and defenses. They have it only broken down in rushing OR passing. When that happened last year I was like WTF (or is WFT) is that about? It really has got to the point where to rationally try to do a ranking has becomes so much of an "eye test" because of a lack of true relevant data that I have ranted against these ranking to the point where poster criticize me for it. In todays data driven world it just seems idiotic. I'll get off my soapbox now. LOL. I will reiterate that you brought up a great "advanced stat" point.

IMO it's stupid and just lazy statistics. Teams don't add kickoff and punt returns to the offensive rushing yards. It's no big thing but it does bug me. LOL.

It does bug me that when ranking D statistics such as Points Against that Special Teams and Offensive scores against are included. If you are going to have all these statistics just use the points against the actual defense. I mean how hard can that be?

Well if anyone on Detroit is going to bite a kneecap they better do it now.

I know a thing or two about frugal Polish parents!

Down 7 but no pressure Aaron.

Geez, between the organization, the fans and the press that kid hasn't a ghost of a chance.

There definitely seems to be a tweak in the way the front 6 are lining up and playing. I likey.

OGM I was just going to post that!

Yep. Point differential was big if I remember correctly.

Pretty, pretty, pretty clear.
