They probably have did that because people were hammering the Vikings. I know that i would have if i was a dispassionate gambler.

I am not worried about that game being taken down. That makes a ton of sense. If it wasn’t the Bills playing I’d hammer Minnesota on the ML. 
 

They took down the O/U total wins for Buffalo this season and odds to win the division.

Lucky thing the Bills are a great running team. 

Funny. And our best runner hurt his elbow

All the other major sports books still have it up.

If Allen gets a 2-4 week ride on the bench, that could absolutely affect both of those odds … especially given the absurdity that is the juggernaut AFCE now. 
 

From anyone I’ve heard in sports medicine, it seems a season ending injury would be a shock, but anywhere from 0-4 games seems on the table.

If Allen misses more than a game or so, this team is done.  There is zero chance.

 

Having written that, I may have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Realistically 9 teams fighting for Seven spots..all within a game to a game and a half of eachother.  Some garbage team will win the AFC south.

 

Still a good chunk of season to go but At least we get one more shot at the East teams at home. But they are going to be tough physical games. 

 

The margin for error will shrink each game Case has to play. I am not convinced we can run the ball without the threat of Josh legs. I’m not convinced the oline will hold up for Case.

 

If Poyer and Milano get back maybe the D can pull out a few for us but Josh to Case is a monumental drop off for this team.

I rarely put money on the Bills. I just find myself rooting for stats rather than rooting for the team or good football from my team. 
 

If I do put money on the Bills I never ever bet against the Bills no matter how much I think the bet will hit.

Case looks better when he has a full week of starter reps, which I expect he is getting now. Looks shaky when he comes in cold off the bench. 

Perhaps. I've seen little to nothing that gives me signs of encouragement.

You have no idea what Keenum looks like with the entire starting offense in a real game and a week of prep. 
 

None of us do.  
 

If you want to point to limitations on offense, in Keenum and in personnel.. fair game, but way too many people are drawing conclusions from preseason. 
 

Come on sir!  It's Casey Keenam we are talking about. He has a big enough sample size to know he's a career back up with big limitations. Weak arm and suspect vision. Go ahead and believe he's going to be effective with this running game and Oline. I will choose to take off my blinders and see reality. I know it's wildly unpopular. The likelihood of Keenam being good or serviceable is fair less likely than vice versa.

This is Case Keenum’s 10th season in the NFL. Everyone knows who he is - and didn’t need 2022 preseason to make a judgement. He did have a very good 2017, but has been pretty bad otherwise. STATS

Without Allen this team is an average 500 team at best. Thus far, Keenan looks abysmal.

“Thus far?” What the heck are you talking about? During mop-up duty? Preseason?

 

Listen, we have yet so see Keenum, Trubisky, or any of the recent back-ups to Josh after a full week of preparation and game planning. My guess is they’ll be okay. Certainly not Josh-level, but okay. Enough to give us a chance to win a game. Not enough to put the team on their backs, mind you.

 

You blathering is annoying as crap. One man does not a team make. There will be 52 other talented athletes to support whoever is playing QB. They’ll have to step up, for sure. But for you to insinuate that the Bills suck without Allen is just ignorant. It’s horribly disrespectful to some really good football players, and even worse, it reeks of the constant misery that you spew on here every week.

 

The Bills are a well-coached, talented and highly disciplined football team with very few weaknesses.  If you really are a Bills fan, then you at least owe them the right to show you what they’ve got.

 

Get your act together and support the team!

[NewEra]

Buckle up.  It’s gonna be a stressful 24-72 hours.

Here’s what I’m saying..

 

-Our OL is not as bad as some people here think.  
 

-I’ve, from jump, been part of the crowd that thinks our skill positions are overrated ..  but they’re also not bad. You can do a lot worse than Hines, Singletary, Cook, Knox, Diggs, Davis, McKenzie and Shakir if we start developing defined roles & usage for them. 
 

It’s not going to look like the hyper aggressive Allen led offense, but that may also not be the worst thing in the world right now.   Maybe we figure some stuff out because we’re forced to without a cheat code at QB for X amount of games. 
 

I know we’re all down on the defense right now, so it would be a great time for McDermott’s annual focus on getting the run fits correct.

Obviously, when (hopefully not) it’s time to support Keenum, most of us will do just that whether at the game or watching it. However to pretend that what we saw over last couple weeks and of Keenum earlier in the year doesn’t matter or is somehow an insulting others is absurd. Even with Allen in we largely just had one superstar WR, bad running game, and a below average line.  I hope someone steps up if Josh is out but the O is in serious trouble without Allen’s arm or legs. Honestly I think we will have to do what the Jets did to us yesterday to be competitive.  Lets Go Buffalo

Can anyonye verify this?

 

“On Monday Night Countdown, Adam Schefter said the Bills don't think this UCL injury for Josh Allen is as serious as the one he had in 2018, but they're still doing more testing.”
