BillsFan-4-Ever Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 At first thought I can see 75% picking the Cheaters. But we may see more bandwagon "experts" jump on board leaving 60% picking the Cheaters.
Dorkington Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 Rightfully most should pick the Patriots, until someone knocks them on their asses, they are the champs.

CodeMonkey Posted September 16, 2015 Author Posted September 16, 2015 Original post updated with CBS picks.
K D Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 i think it's going to be a close game either way. if they win it will be on a last second FG but I'm hoping we jump out to an early lead like we did vs the Colts so that we can run the ball down their throats rather than have to pass to play catch-up. any of these so-called "experts" that cite the Bills not making the playoffs for the last 15 yrs or our record vs the Pats over that span have no idea what they are talking about. this is a completely different team so those stats are irrelevant and it makes me furious when they try to defend their pick using such nonsense
Insomniac99 Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Correction for the OP. Cortanna went 13-3 according to them. And the pick is in! New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills — Bills win, 53.3% chance. (Patriots -1) Woot!
The Wiz Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Correction for the OP. Cortanna went 13-3 according to them. And the pick is in! New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills Bills win, 53.3% chance. (Patriots -1) Woot! But what did siri say? Mac vs PC showdown
offyourocker Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 As long as Prisco does not pick us, I am happy.
Playoffs? Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) As long as Prisco does not pick us, I am happy. You'll be happy then. 24-17 Pats. Edited September 16, 2015 by Playoffs?

stevestojan Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 As a gambler, I wouldn't touch this game with a hundred foot pole.
eball Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 But what did siri say? Mac vs PC showdown Siri's response? "The odds favor the Patriots over the Bills by one point."
Wazzu Bill Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 At first thought I can see 75% picking the Cheaters. But we may see more bandwagon "experts" jump on board leaving 60% picking the Cheaters. In week 1, the CBS crew went 50% colts 50% bills. This week same thing. Interestingly, some of the original bills pickers went to the Pats, and vice versa.
Oberyn Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 You all notice the jump in Elo rating 538 gave to Bills based on the win? Also their odds of making the playoffs are now 50%, after starting the season at like 42% or something like that. Very significant jump.
IDBillzFan Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Rightfully most should pick the Patriots, until someone knocks them on their asses, they are the champs. Not to mention...why not pick the team that cheats? The wins still count.
The Wiz Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Siri's response? "The odds favor the Patriots over the Bills by one point." Of course she cant predict it but instead takes the vegas odds. Typical of Mac.
BuffaloHokie13 Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 how does cortana work? electricity
3rdand12 Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 The fans are the tipping point and hard to quantify for those who do not know the affects. Bills fans better never sit, or STFU when Patsies have the Ball. When they are kicking or receiving. when they walk in and during commercial breaks. My money says Bills Fans make this a WIN. Rex and the D will be ready for the noise. Loud and Proud till the end !!!
