Weeks 2-6 will determine if we actually make playoffs, not the 1 seed.

I have always thought the playoffs were made in November and December.

In terms of Bills podcasts, I much prefer cover 1 over him.

Hey.  At least you can take props for your clear lack of prejudice.

Yeah, Cover1 has been steadily moving from an X's and O's centered approach (which is hard to find) to an analytics/fantasy football centered approach (which is kind of dime-a-dozen IMO)

 

When the X's and O's type guys are talking, I listen. 

 

There are 3-4 guys who post here fairly regularly who have stronger football backgrounds than the best of the Cover1 guys, Spoiler: if they disagree on a point with Cover1, pick them.

agree with that. Plus, Turner is great. 
 

agree on Aaron. Used to like him, but he has become sort of whiny, and too shallow with analysis.

Greg Tompsett for one. I particularly enjoy Buffalo Plus. The Rockpile Report, if you can get past the obnoxious opening.

 

Expand  

Greg IS good, just too long and don’t care for his sidekicks. I’m a fan of Buffalo Plus as well. Albeit, they’re a bit irreverent.. Not a big fan if the Rockpile. Assuredly, he knows his stuff, just too full of himself for my tastes.

Yeah sometimes when they veer off into personal stories it gets bleh

I saw your post after I posted mine 😂

If you follow baseball, he looks exactly like the Blue Jays manager John Schneider lol

I started to watch and it was interesting, but I wish there were a transcript to skim over.

 

I don't do podcasts or videos--I am a reader.

Same. Podcasts take forever to listen to, and if you skip around you end up missing important moments.

They are moving from X's and O's because podcasters can't keep subscribers or generate any revenue by being honest with the team's fans.    

 

The name of the game is to stroke the subscribers until the revenue comes out.  

 

If you want to be in that line of "work" and be honest or ever have a pessimistic view you need to have an audience that includes all team's fans...........not just the homer's of 1 team.

Whenever somebody posts something about Marino the post is like "one of my favs, take a look"  or "best in the biz, worth the time". I just want one of these posts to be like "likely a bad person, check it out anyway".

He’s probably a really good person. That makes me hate his guts even more. Can’t trust people that appear to be nice and caring. The definitely have something to hide.

To be fair I think Cover 1 were always homers. Even when they were doing more Xs and Os stuff. The list of times I think they were wrong in their breakdown because they were trying to put a positive spin on it is too long to repeat.

Is it that wild? The Bills have won 4 division titles in a row. They are the dominant force in the AFC East. The only team on a longer active streak of division tiles in the NFL is the Chiefs. 

 

The Bills are the class of the AFC East until someone knocks them off. Miami had a chance to do it in their own backyard last year and fluffed their lines.
