But they are convinced. Many Bills fans think this is as good as we get with the current group. No high draft pick. No cap space. So the biggest changes will have to come from coaching. That’s their belief. The Bills can win the AFC with the right moves in the draft and UFA. 1 1 Quote

People don't seem to understand how the cap works. Beane can restructure to create a lot of cap space. He built these contracts to provide that flexibility. It has gotten tighter, but there are plenty of things Beane can do. People were saying last season that Beane wouldn't be able to do anything, and he ended up bringing in Von Miller, re-signing every worthwhile Bills free agent, and completely revamping the interior dline. I think fans just need to settle down and see how the off-season goes. And, you know, see if it is actually true that the Bills can't get better from here. 1 Quote
947 Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Will the odds change if Beane goes DL/Safety/LB in rounds 1-3 of the draft? 1 Quote
Jerome007 Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 The overall odds for all NFL teams will change according to trades, losing or getting free agents, the draft, etc. But yeah, the Bills are far from done. Quote

There's still plenty of time for this organization to make improvements to the offense. Plenty of time for the defensive coaches to adjust philosophy. Plenty of time for Ken to actually create an offensive identity. Plenty of time for Brandon to have a great off-season. Stop expecting Josh to do it all and do the right thing. We're not done nor is anyone panicking but it would be naive to believe we don't have reason for concern. Quote

boater Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Odds makers aren't predicting winners. They set the line to get equal numbers of people on both sides. The line is set as a function of popular sentiment, not who they think will win. 1 1 1 Quote

Those clowns in Vegas! If only they could see what YOU could see, in all your misery. Then maybe they'd know something about football. 1 Quote
nedboy7 Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Fans are too attached to their deep negativity and judgement. It is what defines them as a person. The ego hates to be disturbed. 9 minutes ago, boater said: Odds makers aren't predicting winners. They set the line to get equal numbers of people on both sides.

Unforgiven Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 All I know is they better try hard, I'm sick death of Mahomes getting all this recognition, I heard a poll today he was rated 3rd best ? Super bowl QB after Brady/Montana... The only difference between Josh and Mahomes is coaching and the players that Mahomes has around him. Josh has like a poor man's offense, no line, no weapons beyond Diggs. Sad. Quote

But they have certainly had more success in the Super Bowl then him. Based on championships they would rank higher than him. Quote
balln Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 They were “favored “ this year. They weren’t even CLOSE against cincy. Vegas odds for next year mean jack shiit Quote
The Red King Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Vegas isn't ranking anyone. They are setting betting lines. In this case they're hoping to fleece people who don't look deep enough into the Bills and free-pass them based on circumstances. Quote
ProcessTruster Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 (edited) Agree with Vegas. Money talks. Crybaby fans walk. A healthy Bills roster goes a lot farther than they did this year. Eagles had basically no injuries this year other than Hurts for a couple games that didn't matter. Edited February 10, 2023 by ProcessTruster Quote
