I don’t know what a digital content creator does exactly… 

Get ready to see our Bills go viral on TikTok.  Josh rollerblading while drinking cranberry juice, Feliciano's OnlyFans account, two kickers one athletic cup, etc.

It was back in March and I don’t remember if she ever said what it was. I always assumed it went with the Ertz rumor. 

What Ertz rumor?

I hope she changes her tune because she picked the Bills to lose more games 

 

 

I'm sure she will. Gotta keep da bosses happy lol

Which football talking heads don’t spew predictions left and right on all types of topics?? It’s what they all do pretty much every day.  
 

I’m thinking some of the posters here really here dislike women who make a living in football…

 

It has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that she is a woman. (But thanks for making that baseless assumption.)  I really like Kim Jones for example and feel that she provides excellent insight on the Bills.  I could rattle off a ton of male commentators that I can't stand, does that mean I dislike men making a living in football commentary?  I have no issue with predictions, some of Frelund's predictions seem unnecessarily specific.  I don't enjoy her style of reporting and don't feel like she provides much to the shows that I have seen her on other than her computer generated predictions.

I agree. Wish I had that imogi that Shelock Holmes always uses...🤗

 

 

 That one? 

[billsherd]

I just can't stand how many times she keeps nodding her head when she talks. With her long neck it really stands out.

[wppete]

Another bad move by the Bills organization IMHO. She’s an awful “reporter”.

I have never seen her pick games, but that doesn't mean she hasn't picked them. I have seen her report on what team her MODEL picks. Two completely different things.

 

As a guy who spend most of his career in research, I was bound by duty to report what the research data suggested. But that wasn't always MY opinion. Fortunately my bosses and colleagues typically asked what I personally believed. Sometimes it matched the data, but often enough it did not.  I would have liked her cohosts to ask her, at least once in a while, "But what do YOU think, Cynthia?"

 

Anyway, I see no downside here. She's bright and having more quality content is a good thing.

Yes. That's the one. Now I just need to figure out how to save it to my phone...😁

🥰 I like it. Have had a low key crush on her since she joined NFLN.

 

Checks a lot of boxes for me:

A woman who loves football

likes math and stats/ has a logical mind

can talk business (MBA and Finance background)

loves staying fit (pilates instructor)

is easy on the eyes

is learning how to bake

and is not married 😄

 

It will be interesting what kind of content she provides, and if she gets into the analytics side of things.

From the announcement: Frelund will join the Bills as their sideline reporter during the preseason TV game broadcasts. She will also host a digital segment during the season that dives into statistics and analytics surrounding the Bills.

 

Predictive modeling is really intense, but is fun too. It often goes against a gut feeling.

 

Cool hire by the Bills. Welcome to the team Cynthia!

I’m not an analytics guy but you can’t really fault someone for doing their job. That was what they hired her to do. 

Agreed. I don't care for percentages and probable outcomes. Too many variables to take into account to used that method as a guide. 

 

Since we don't have the Jills any longer having Cynthia, Jenna Cotrell, Kim Jones and Maddy Glab isn't too shabby. 😋

[foreboding]

This is awesome news. Maddy is nice and all, but Cynthia is a legit writer and journalist. I like Jenna as well.
Welcome Cynthia!

I wasn’t specifically referring to you per say…, 

[Matt_In_NH]

She does a lot with models predicting specific outcomes in games.  Attempts completions tds etc.  I’m not a fan of that type of prediction but she is intelligent and seems to know football.   Sounds good.

Terry is cheap! Seriously, she must have cost a lot to hire away from NFLN?

Yes but Kim is all about hiring/empowering women  good for her !!! 

[Utah John]

Does anyone ever go back and see how well her predictions turn out?

[78thealltimegreat]

Seems like the Bills looked over things and want a more pronounced digital presence…With one of young Superstars in the game In Josh to build around seems like Bills YouTube, Bills Tik Tok, more interactive Bills chats I can see where this is going
