SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted November 12, 2020 Author Posted November 12, 2020 The Cardinals can be a good team for a long time. This can also be called be a statement game. Are both teams LEGIT. After the game you may see one or these headlines Are the Cards a fluke? Are the Bills for real? Are the Bills a fluke? Are the Cards for real?

Colleges pay lesser schools to play them almost regularly. It's quite hilarious when the lessee school upsets them. These are simple, one-off arrangements. A team from a power conference pays a six-figure (or occasionally seven-figure) sum to a lesser team for a visit. These payouts range from $200,000 or $300,000 for an FCS team to $500,000 to $1 million-ish for a mid-major from the AAC, Mountain West, or the like.Sep 22, 2018 https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2018/8/30/17431764/college-football-scheduling-cupcake-games-why#:~:text=These are simple%2C one-off,Mountain West%2C or the like. Scandal after scandal year in and year out. The BCS ranking is a joke. Wow, Slim, all I said was that Tua has all the makings of a good NFL QB, I have no interest in debating the BCS scheduling system. Looks like you've been waiting to go on a rant about the state of college football. Have at it but you can leave me out.

I think they are going to be the Bills main competition if Darnold stays healthy. Care to make a statement regarding this exceptionally bad take? 5 hours ago, SirAndrew said: I’m not the guy to get worked up about the media doubting the Bills. GMFB has always given this team a lot of credit, so I don’t mean this as a complaint. However, I did find some interesting misinformation in that segment. You’d think Kyler Murray was the QB of more than a 5-3 team, and we actually did very well shutting down Lamar last season. They discussed how poorly our D performed against Jackson, but we were actually one of the more successful teams at slowing him. Additionally, the Seahawks, even without a defense were thought of being better than the Cards. I’m not sure how a win over the Cards should stop anyone from doubting us. The win over the Seahawks should have been able to do that. I’m not guaranteeing a win this Sunday, but the Cards are just a 5-3 middling team imo. We held the Ravens to like 265 yards and 24 points when they were putting up 400-500 yards and 40+ points every week...we actually wrote the book that the other teams copied on how to slow them down. Tennessee basically stole our gameplan in the playoffs. Incredibly bad take by them. I expect more from that show and especially Kyle Brandt since he is a huge Bills fan.

I went with the topic of college success doesn’t always work in the NFL. Had you replied directly about Tua I would still have said Tua has played 2 games and has much to prove. Baker has / had the makings of a good QB Sam has / had the makings of a good QB Lamar has / had the makings of a good QB Rosen had the makings of a good QB many say Lock has the makings of a good QB of that bunch, as a QB Josh outshines them all.

I was never a fan of Mayfield (personality, college system QB), Darnold (didn't seem to have any extraordinary traits), Rosen (personality, mostly average overall). I thought Jackson was very underrated even after Heisman, superior athlete and leader. However, I'm still shocked he improved enough to win MVP. I doubt that he'll ever reach that level again but will still be a good QB for a sometime. Allen - I wanted him his junior year but I cooled off his senior year, and draftniks made me doubt he'd become a good NFL QB. I think Lock was overrated, kind of mix between Darnold and Rosen (with a good personality). Again, he does things well, but nothing that stands out. Herbert is different. That guy reminds me a polished Josh Allen without the elite arm or running ability. I think Herbert could be like Rodgers. Likewise, I think Tua has above average skills, great leadership instincts and seems to understand the game. It's a small sample size but he does not look like a three-game rookie. After last game, I was like, "Uh, oh." I like Barrows but haven't seen much of his college or NFL games to have an opinion.

I could see us going into the Miami game at 11-4 with our only other loss coming to the Steelers. That being said, I am not automatically chalking that up as a loss. Yeah they are a good team, but there is no reason why the Bills should feel like they can't play with them. They have played some close games and have not been great on offense in a lot of games. Their D makes plays but they can give up points too... I am not saying the Bills should be favored in that game but I am not saying that is an automatic loss either, especially as it is a home game for us. Also I think if the Patriots continue playing the way they have for the last 2 weeks that game in Foxboro is a toss up. Edited November 17, 2020 by matter2003

They are a complete joke this year....they will not come even close to winning this division or a WC spot.....no flippin way....who did they beat.....the NY Jets who put 27 on them and ok they beat the Ravens in a monsoon......sorry but IMO those games does not say anything to me that we should now be worried about the Pats...... 1

You realize they were a Zimmer forced fumble away from likely winning the first game here or at least forcing OT with a chip shot FG right?

Yes they have very good "offensive assistant" (official title) Ernie Adams who is director of spying; he scouts film legally and illegally obtained and provides weaknesses to attack. A longtime NFL watcher compares him to "Q," James Bond's master of espionage and gadgetry.
Mat68 Posted November 17, 2020 Posted November 17, 2020 Buffalo has played tough teams. They lost to 3 possible division winners. Most media heads pegged Buffalo with 9 wins. Buffalo ate NE best shot. Buffalo played a little sloppy but still pulled out the game. Kinda like one of the Patriots wins vs Buffalo a year, for the better part of 20 years. The team will be relativley healthy after the bye. Coming out of the bye they have LAC and SF both teams Buffalo can handle. Going into Sunday night football Buffalo should be 9-3 vs PIT. Buffalo sits in the captain chair of the Division. Meaningful football with playoff implication in after Nov is what Mcdermott brought to Buffalo. This season Buffalo has a shot at hitting their stride instead of holding on to it.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted November 17, 2020 Author Posted November 17, 2020 NE loses SF — diminished in talent IIRC Denver — diminished in talent IIRC Seattle by 5 — Bills won by 10 KC by 16 — Bills lost by 9 Buffalo on a poor weather day IIRC Bills losses Tenny on close to 3 weeks rest KC 3rd game in 13 days and Arizona on a Hail Mary 1
