NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Yeah it is now or never for the Bills season

They need to think that way but it’s just not true. They can likely make the playoffs at 9-8 this year. The AFC is a mash unit.

Started 6-2 and things were looking good and then we lose 3 of our last 4.

The Raiders play the Chiefs today....

Fuck my life.

Chiefs off of a loss too.

I would feel okay about it since our defense is pretty good and KC''s offense is the same it has been but Crosby is unlikely to play.....

 

[DJ Fieri]

And KC's defense will get penetration on our OL and get to O'Connell.

I disagree unless they get help today. Lets say they lose while Houston and Pittsburgh win. That would leave them 2 out with 5 games left. Pretty hard to make the playoffs almost needing to run the table for the rest of the way if those 3 things happens today

Still can't believe we lost to fucking Cal....SMH.

Ain't it the worst? Last (regular season) PAC 12 game ever

Yep.

I know you like unders. Supposed to be a rain game in Philly today and the number seems kind of high at 48.5. Something to consider.

The Broncs are hot right now and don't have a difficult schedule to close out the season. They could be in the hunt for a WC.

Damn. I just looked at their schedule and you’re right. They really need to find wins anywhere they can. They’ve got KC Cowboys Dolphins and Eagles left in their last 6 games. They should beat New England and Chargers. They need to find at least one win in that group of 4 to get to 9. Cowboys are the only home game.

Already took it.

Buffalo is capable of winning some of those tough games though....especially with a new OC.

I don’t disagree. As always with Buffalo, it comes down to the Josh Allen they get. He can be tremendous but he has a tendency to force shit and turn it over.

I can see them beating Dallas in Buffalo in middle of Dec at home. Plus, the Pats and Chargers....not to mention Philly today.

Got 5 hours sleep and just ate....

Fucking tired now.

That could cost Chip his job actually....

Upon further review, I don't understand the "Fire Chip Kelly" stuff. I know it took a little longer than expected for him to start winning, but he's had 3 straight winning seasons now and is still building them.

If they were expecting "Oregon results", that was never going to happen, at least not as quickly. Oregon had already been quietly building themselves up when the Pete Carroll era was happening at USC. Chip just finished the process.

They've had a couple of "inexplicable losses", but it's the PAC, those happen. Especially when you're building a program. Cal isn't as bad a loss as it seems. They lost 6 games and 5 of them were to PAC teams ranked in the top 25. The other was to Auburn by 4.

Plus, didn't they just extend him?

I didn't eat much today....LOL

Breaking here that OU offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby is taking the Miss St job.

Yeah....forgot about that in March.

3 of the last 4 losses though....just irritating.

Maybe if he struggles next season they think about it but after a 6-2 start I was expecting something better than 7-5.
