NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Bigger issue was the stupid decision of the Bills to not leave until Friday. Most teams playing the London game leave after a workout Tuesday. People need to time to acclimate themselves to the massive time change. Shitty job by the Bills organization.

Yep not good. Thats a game that could cost them the division

Yep. Potentially could.

Yeah i looked at miami schedule...very nice

Bills with 2 losses that shouldn't have happened. Them and Baltimore should both be 5-0

They aren’t though because they have deficiencies. Ravens can’t finish because their pass game lacks. Bills can’t finish games and opponents because they can’t run the ball. So they’re really 3-2. You are who the record says you are.

Agreed, the Bills didn't handle it well at all. But allowing a team to play two weeks back to back is going to be an unfair advantage regardless. The team already in residency should be considered the home team though; that first game last week should've been the road game if necessary.

Bills losses had absolutely nothing to do with running the ball (Bills are 14th in rushing yards, 12th in ypc and 6th in rushing TDs). Jets loss was due to a ton of turnovers by Josh and the Bills trailed all day yesterday vs the Jags and lost a bunch of defensive players due to injury recently.

Only threat is the Dolphins. Jets and Patriots are trash. Bills have owned the Dolphins in recent years.

H2h is only half the battle. The Dolphins if they can stay healthy likely going to end up with only 4 or 5 losses. They have a very favorable schedule

 

[bksballer89]

Bills schedule is much tougher as all of their remaining tough games except 1 are road games

Yep.

There are no moral victories. No shoulda, woulda, coulda.

3-2 is 3-2.

Road games in Cincy, Philly, KC, and Miami wont be easy at all

Also get the chargers at a neutral site in sofi which wont be easy either.

Im leaning towards Miami winning this division at the moment....hope im wrong

It’s really not. It’s a bigger disadvantage being there for two weeks and now having to adjust back to time in the states. Nobody wants to go across the pond except for the Jags who step up every year and reduce the number of teams that have to deal with that bull shit. If they get an advantage out of the deal it’s one they’ve earned through experience of going over there every year.

He's not Stroud or Fields (and realize you said that in 1st half) but looks like he could at least be decent.

I was wrong in saying that. Addressed it the other day. I was just frustrated when I posted that incorrect comment. My bad on that.

 

[Wamu]

It's too bad he does not have a good arm for the deep ball, but other than that he seems pretty good.

No doubt better run game and OL will be needed to beat better teams.

See ya saw that. Already said something about it in a different comment.

Both have to play Eagles/Chiefs/Cowboys/each other as their main remaining opponents. Miami has a potent offense, but that defense is pretty much trash. We'll see how each fares, you might be surprised.

The whole thing should be dropped IMO, or the games should be at least midseason with teams getting the bye the week after. The Bills turned down the week 6 bye this year because it's just too damn early in the season if you have the choice.

It's not a bigger disadvantage. The Jags likely flew home last night and have a full week, just like you wanted the Bills to do to fly to England. Same disadvantage for one set of round trip travel. They get the unfair advantage having two games back to back with the Bills losing a home game in the process when the other team clearly had the no travel advantage.

Wasting your time? LOL.

Thanks for posting that great laugh.

He ain't even worth 5.5m a season. And looking at his career numbers he hasn't had a winning season since 2017 and only three winning seasons in eleven years.

 

[Wamu]

I looked at the Cowboys schedule...they aren't winning more than 10 and will struggle to make the playoffs

Aw dammit.

Acting like he's not currently employed because he has standards lol. Nothing to do with his awful play whatsoever...

5.5 mill isn't much for a QB in the NFL
