Chaos Posted October 12 Posted October 12 (edited) Five weeks into the season, Las Vegas has the division winners all decisively odds-on favorites. This is not typical. Division Winners: They also have a pretty big front runner for Conference Champ. Edited October 12 by Chaos Quote
Low Positive Posted October 12 Posted October 12 (edited) Vegas still likes the Bills a lot more than their own fans do. But I do think that the team that they don't know what to think about is the Jets. Edited October 12 by Low Positive 1 Quote
Generic_Bills_Fan Posted October 12 Posted October 12 (edited) Is tua not on track for a week 8 return anymore? +750 for the dolphins seems like an interesting value bet. I think I’d take that before the jets +310 Edited October 12 by Generic_Bills_Fan 1 Quote
JaCrispy Posted October 12 Posted October 12 (edited) I still think ultimately the Jets have a stronger roster to sustain themselves through the course of the season… PS…If the Bills are looking to draft a WR in the upcoming draft, it doesn’t look promising…Last year was the year to do it, unfortunately… Early on, DT looks like the way to go in the next draft…There are some really good prospects from the mid to late first round… Edited October 12 by JaCrispy 2 Quote

The game is against the colts too so not a super impossible one Edited October 12 by Generic_Bills_Fan Quote

strive_for_five_guy Posted October 12 Posted October 12 For anyone that likes the Jets to win the division over the Bills, this is the week to bet them at +310. If they beat the Bills, those odds coming down big-time. I hate betting against my team though, so will likely bet the Bills H2H versus the Jets this week instead. 1 Quote

Sign him UP! 1 Quote

Division Winners: They also have a pretty big front runner for Conference Champ. I actually think the odds are pretty spot on, it’s pretty basic math to determine the chances of a lot of these teams digging themselves out of a hole and others having to completely collapse for things to be much different. Could it happen? Sure. But if you come back and look at this picture at the EOY, I bet Vegas wins. The AFC has kind of fallen apart haha. The Bills are “retooling” (or the failure to add talent where it matters is catching up, your choice of words), Steelers still have no O, Browns are Browning, Bengals had to pay their QB, Tua did Tua, Jets gambled on a 40 yr old, and all the other shots at QB missed the mark. You’re left with the Chiefs, Texans, Ravens and maybe the Josh Allen’s having a shot to win it. 1 Quote

You could have the first round DT rotating with Carter, if they decide to move on from Oliver… Think about it…Our #1 edge, Groot, is a solid #2…But we need a #1 on the other side… Our #1 3-tech, Oliver, is a solid rotational piece, but not a dominant player who impacts the game in a meaningful way… We need to improve the line…Whether or not McD wants to do it or not, is his prerogative…But we are behind other superbowl contenders, in that area… 1 1 Quote

The Bills have traded up to draft Elam, Kincaid and multiple other later round guys, but THIS is the one case you can’t understand? Quote

A move up for Thomas from 28 would have been of a whole different magnitude. What spot were we supposed to trade up to to draft Thomas (who I thought was WR2 in this draft, behind Nabers)? 1 Quote

They are behind in many positions, but their idiotic use of cap space on the line is their own doing. 2 minutes ago, mannc said: We traded up a few spots to draft Elam and Kincaid.

He was drafted 5 spots ahead of us, so I’d say roughly 23rd? 🙄 Quote

I thought he went in the mid-teens…absolute steal at 23. Still, the Bills would have had to find a trade partner and it’s not certain anyone would have been willing or what it would have cost. Quote
DapperCam Posted October 12 Posted October 12 Hard to argue with that, I actually think the AFC North will be the closest at the end. Those teams tend to beat each other up in the divisional matchups. Bills should have zero issue winning the division, but that's just because the AFC East is so weak. 1 Quote
