Bills vs Fish Pre-game thread

Special teams. Yeldon not needed with Motor back. Harry has been on IR for weeks now. -
Cordy Glenn at Odds With Bengals Over Concussion

Why would anyone want AJ Green at the Shawne Merriman point of his career? -
Cordy Glenn at Odds With Bengals Over Concussion
Albany,n.y. replied to H2o's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Why does anyone want him back? In the NFL the most important ability is availability and while Glenn has some ability it's to no avail. -
According to Mitchell Byars of the Boulder Daily Camera, Bannan was arrested on a number of charges, including first-degree assault and first-degree burglary after the shooting of a woman. The 40-year-old Bannan played 12 years in the league, with the Bills, Ravens, Broncos, Rams, and Lions. According to Boulder police, the woman was shot and transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Police believe the woman and the alleged shooter know each other, but aren’t clear what led to the shooting. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/former-nfl-lineman-justin-bannan-arrested-for-attempted-murder/ar-AAIVYU6?ocid=spartandhp

Around the NFL: Week 6 Sunday Game Thread

Winston is playing worse than the guy he replaced at Florida State. EJ sees this and he may be thinking of un-retiring. -
We've scored TDs on 10 of 14 redzone trips??
Albany,n.y. replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Here's another opportunity for me to rail against QB stats. On a recent Dan Patrick show Patrick said the Bills were winning in spite of their QB. He then cited Allen's TD/INT ratio. A TD/INT ratio is irrelevant when a team chooses to run into the endzone instead of passing. A TD drive is a TD drive no matter how it is achieved. A more important stat is # of TD drives, and their length. It doesn't mean anything if Allen tosses to a wide open Lee Smith, runs it in himself or hands off to Gore or Singletary for the TD. A TD drive is a TD drive, period. -
With Leif Larsen available, no way.

At the casino in Schenectady they have kiosks where you can bet without a teller. If I wanted to bet a large amount I'd bet it separately at the kiosk. One thing they do is the teller is only authorized to cash less than $1,000 so I'd break the bets into smaller amounts. I don't know if they have some system on the kiosks that would stop someone putting a big bet in at a few kiosks broken down into $500 increments. I was able to put the $1,400 in bets at the kiosks, but if I wanted to do it at the window with a teller they wanted me to apply for a rewards card.

I bet $1,400 on various combos of Bills wins the week the season started before any games were played. The photo of the tickets is too big (# of MB) to paste here. My bets were: > 6.5 wins (-200) $400 bet return $600 > 7.5 wins (+100) $400 bet return $800 > 8.5 wins (+200) $400 bet return $1,200 Make playoffs (+325)$200 bet return $850 If the Bills win 9 or more games & make the playoffs I win $2,050 on my $1,400 bet for a return of $3,450. I break even at 8-8, win $1,200 on their 9th win & hit it all if they make the playoffs. My tickets say 1/22/20 6:30 PM, so I guess I can't cash them until then, but I'll check with the casino before then to be sure.

The same people who only look at stats and don't watch the games will blame Mayfield. The same ones who blamed Josh for the 1st INT vs the Jets. Stat boys gonna stat. -

A steal to get anything higher than an 8th. -

If Josh started a game playing like Mayfield is playing tonight, the (dwindling) anti-Allen crowd would be calling for Barkley and trying to figure out how to draft a QB in the next draft. -
Bills' Super Bowl odds leap following 4-1 start
Albany,n.y. replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I didn't go past the playoffs but I got the playoffs at +325, over 6.5 wins at -200, over 7.5 wins at +100, and over 8.5 at +200. My break even point is 8-8, profits start at 9-7. I'm feeling pretty confident of cashing them all with the current record at 4-1 with 2 Miami games & Washington still on the schedule. -
Easiest prediction in sports: Redskins interim coach names Dwayne Haskins starting QB.

Revisiting Beane's most subtly brilliant move as GM
Albany,n.y. replied to cage's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Buddy Nix did the same thing except he slept at the games and the stadium clean-up crews had to wake him up & tell him to leave. Whaley tried the same thing, but would end up staying in the hotel room watching the porn channel instead of going to the game. -

I went to the Giants game yesterday. When Minnesota scored in the 4th quarter the stadium broke out into a "Let's Go Yankees" chant. -

I noticed your post after I posted mine. It looks like we both thought the same thing at the same time & I type very slowly, so you beat me to the board. -

Trading a 7th for a former 1st rounder was a shot worth taking even with the unfortunate cap hit. Amazing thing is a 7th usually is a throw out pick with less than a 10% hit rate & Beane looks like he hit a homerun with Darryl Johnson and then came back up to bat and got at least a base hit with Tommy Sweeney.
