Betting $5000 on sports is just silly. I doesn’t matter how confident you are there are too many things you can’t predict.

Apparently you're just a troll and should go sit at the kids table if you have confidence in your team.  These keyboard warriors are the peak of athletic knowledge and you dont deserve an opinion haha.  I think the bills after a bye, in November, against a similar team at the Ralph absolutely have a chance.  Shoot I have them 0% against the Vikings so

I think the Bills have proven they can beat teams that we have no business beating.

 

It depends what Bills team shows up.

I hope I am wrong but take a look at that Jaguar defense . They are completely shutting down the Steelers offense  

How are we going to manage that ???? 

Last I checked we have the #1 D not them.  Of coarse I havnt checked this week

The only start that matters is with the Bills. And he looked like the best quarterback that has played for the Bills in a long time. 31 points in a half against anyone is a miracle with a team that couldn't score on anyone.

True.  It probably had nothing to do with the changes at WR, Oline, and Special teams.

Why would he look better? He just played last week with the same offense Allen has had and scored 41 points. That’s why. The same offense that sucked all year, was good. The only difference was the guy throwingbthe ball.

Actually it wasnt the same.  There wasnt a big pile of Ducasse to his left and the team had several more weeks in a new Offense that is the most complex system in the NFL.  People seem to forget we have a new Offense and new verbage.  That is a really big deal.  Some guys may pick up on it right away.  Others it may take more time.  Some may never grasp it.  You forget what the change in D did to our #4 ranked D when Rex came.

I think this is winnable game. 

 

Need strong defense of course and we need special team to make a few plays too.

 

Allen has to protect the ball and make some throws.   This game is key to Allen's development and it will show if sitting out and "learning" has helped the game "slow down" a bit for him.

Marrone is going to try and run the laces off the football.   Stop the run, sack Bortles.   Win 10-3

[Matt_In_NH]

This game is likely to be low scoring which means a turnover here or there could easily swing it either way.

Minnesota's defense is not Jacksonville's defense. This defense will eat Allen for lunch.  Or any rookie for lunch. He will have no idea what is going on.

with ramsey and bouye(sp?),  they will be able to send the corners on blitzes nonstop. not only does that not bode well for shady... that means for allen...look towards first read then run/panic.

 

we can't afford to start the first half with 3 and outs.  we have to get the lead early and slam the door.

Changes at WR, Oline, and Special Teams helped, so did playing the Jets, but the eye test is what matters. Barkely visually is just much better than the 3 quarterbacks the Bills have started this year. He is talented and polished.  Allen is talented and unpolished.  Anderson and Peterman had moments where they looked ok for filling in for a few downs or plays but never could not put entire games together.

If Allen wasn't coming off a long layoff I think he could fare ok. He has not seen a live defense in a long time. Starting him makes little sense. I would just go with Barkley until the Jets at home.  If the goal is to give him reps and confidence then the Jets at home in a few weeks looks like a much better spot to return. If Barkley beats the Jaguars and Dolphins you just have to stick with the hot hand until they are eliminated from the playoffs.

Vikings called and asked “Didn’t you say that about us?”

If it's OK with the OP I think I'll still watch the game.

[Coach Tuesday]

They need to stop the run (Fournette is back and was running hard during the first half yesterday) and, unlike last January, bottle Bortles and don't let him scramble for first downs.  Do that and they should be in decent position to win.  Not gonna be easy for Jax to prepare for this one - Allen will be back, along with three new speed elements (Thompson, McKenzie, Foster) and better interior line play than what they put on film during the first half of the season.

It’s funny because we’re gonna watch Bortles and Allen both complete 50% of their passes and scramble all afternoon. It’s the Spider-Man meme.

"likely"  reality is does not always follow what things look like on paper.

[Bills fan since 87]

Bills 17 Jags 13...Book it

[reddogblitz]

If Barkley starts we got a really good chance to win. If Wonder Boy starts we have a decent chance.  If whoever starts respects the football and makes a few plays we should be in good shape to win.

Look for the first read and run over Ramsey for a 10 yard is What I hope happens.  Maybe step on his face mask as he takes it for a td.  If that happened I wouldnt even care if we lost.

Something similar was said about the bills vs vikings. The league outcome is unpredictable if it were there would be extremely wealthy gamblers and vegas woulndt allow betting. Its un uphill climb no doubt but not impossible. Sean and Brandon dont have the word cant in their vocabulary.

I remember. Boy some hot takes!

Man I love it when Buffalo makes people look stupid.
