    ESPN did not report anything Thursday night while NFL Network had it as their major story.  It was very odd, but Rappaport felt confident in his source I guess.

     

    I watched the tale end of sports center and the two anchors lead into SVP.   The one said SVP wlll report the news.  Steve Levy said “only if it is accurate”.   I didn’t think anything of it until a few minutes later I decided to check TBD because I was bored.  I was no longer bored. 

  2. It pains me to say it but when the Patriots play well,  which is often obviously, they leave such a small margin of error for the opposing team.  One sketchy penalty call comes across as though the game is rigged.

     

    No doubt, that call was lame.  But a SB caliber team should be able to brush that off. At the time, that call felt like a turnover because the Rams offense was being flat out stopped. 

  3. It’s also demographics.  So many NFL players are from the southeast and CA.   I get why some have hesitation to come to Buffalo all things being relatively equal.   But if you win that can tip the scales.

     

    if I was a player, being from the northeast, I would prefer northern cities generally as well.  But if I thought I could go to the SB playing in Pheonix or Houston I would do it.   It’s not a lifetime commitment.

  4. It makes sense many players do not live in Buffalo full time.  They are not from there!  They have the financial resources to live somewhere else that is close to their home town or family.   I would do the same thing. 

     

    Once the Bills start making the playoffs on a regular basis , it will  get easier to entice FAs. Bottom line.

    Barnwell predicted 6.4 wins last year. On July 21st.

    Just sayin'.

     

     

     

    And again, for the apparent large majority who commented on an article without reading it ... the article this thread is about is NOT a prediction of next year's win total, only a guess of what the Vegas over-under will be when the opening lines come out, which will probably be well before the season.

     

     

     

     

     

    Yes it’s true he is predicting what Vegas will post as the O/U but his only source is his own opinion of the team right now.  His take may change in July but I bet if he was asked now, 6 wins or something close to it would be his answer.   Read his review of the Bills in the article.   Not very positive.
