Big C Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I get risk vs reward in this situation, but this is like jumping over a set of railway tracks with a train 10 feet away to save an extra few seconds. Picking the Browns over the Colts is a better risk vs reward I don't think the loser dies here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Linen Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Risk vs. Reward No you would look at what the people did on the middle games (harder to chose) and go against those. You don't make the most unlikely picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metzelaars_lives Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 (edited) When you are losing and odds are against you sometimes you need to take chances to win, Or you could proclaim you knew loss was INevitable and brag on how well you saw that in future. a) so clever with the "IN" there- I'll tell ya that still hasn't gotten old yet- and b) what in the world is your signature about. I thought about it for a minute and I have no idea who you are supporting or what point you are trying to make. And c) I don't understand your post either.

CodeMonkey Posted December 5, 2014 Author Share Posted December 5, 2014 If he's trying to make up ground, why would he pick the Bills in this game where it's highly unlikely they win, it's not like the odds makers have the game close, this would just put him deeper in a hole...... Equate it to going for it on 4th and 30 when you are behind by 14 in the 4th quarter. If you hit it, you still have a chance of winning. If not, you were going to lose anyway. I get risk vs reward in this situation, but this is like jumping over a set of railway tracks with a train 10 feet away to save an extra few seconds. Picking the Browns over the Colts is a better risk vs reward If the Bills win, Ditka gains one on everyone else. That's the reward. he does love him some good defense! That actually is a really good point too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

947 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 If the Defense can get a hit on Manning & knock him out of the game, it's on like a mofo. Hopefully it happens before he throws his 3rd TD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a reason they play the games. I've seen the Bills beat teams before when no one gave us a chance. I've also see us lose to teams that we should easily beat.

26CornerBlitz Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 PFT’s Week 14 picks Bills at Broncos MDS’s take: The thing I like about the way the Broncos are playing right now is that they can win with defense and the running game: Peyton Manning doesn’t need a big game for Denver to win. On Sunday, I expect the Bills’ great front four to pressure Manning all day, but the Broncos to win anyway, thanks to the defense and the running attack. MDS’s pick: Broncos 28, Bills 20. Florio’s take: Kyle Orton returns to Denver, after Tebowmania gave way to Peyton Manning. The Broncos are simply better in every phase of the game. Florio’s pick: Broncos 42, Bills 20.
