Trentwannabe Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 This would have been and has been his response about every injured player ever. It’s only worriesome when McDermott calls some one week to week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could have traded the #1 overall pick I would have. TBH I was worried about Chubb's production without a viable QB, and then looking at what he's doing now, I realized that he did it for 4 years with Baker Mayfield, so that's kind of a stupid thing to have thought through. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also @Forge I typically try to shy away from Browns players so that I don't become more miserable watching them play/fantasy football. Dead serious. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soko Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 If the Bills are smart, they’ll sit him for a bit. Worst case scenario (standings wise), you’re a wildcard team, but will be putting your franchise QB in a much better position. Long term and short. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this I'm not saying it's as serious but this is the same injury that Ben Roethlisberger suffered and he was out for the entire season and when he came back he was not the same guy. No sure mind you that Ben was much older also, But I think it's a major mistake to rush him back for the number one seed or whatever your purpose is because if he goes out there and injures his elbow more it could be detrimental to the long term portion of his career 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going on the road the entire way is damn near impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going on the road the entire way is damn near impossible. Sample bias. Of course they’ll win it less than non-wild card teams - every year (until recently) you’re putting in 8 divisional winners and 4 wildcard teams. Probability wise, you’re only half as likely to draw a WC team, and that’s if it were random (which it isn’t). Now for further context, those 4 WC teams will almost always have worse records than the divisional winners - indicating that, generally, the better teams will be the divisional winners and the worse teams will be the WC teams. Going on the road shouldn’t be a death sentence for a good, hot team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going on the road the entire way is damn near impossible. Certainly not, but that's also partially because wildcard teams are typically worse than division winners (not always, but in general). While most wildcards deal with not only having to travel each game but also being outmatched while doing so, a healthy Bills squad would be a superior team than basically anyone they'd play in the playoffs. That said, the first-round bye definitely has a lot of value, but even that isn't a requirement. Regardless, I'd still have the Bills as one of the top SB favorites even if they had to play on the road in the playoffs. I cannot, however, say the same for the Bills without Josh Allen, homefield advantage or no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soko Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 I’m sure the Vikings are losing a ton of sleep preparing for Allen and…Case Keenum. McDermott’s not fooling anyone, lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, not sure this is the best idea - or maybe the plan is Keenum start and Allen is his backup. (Steelers did this a few times with Ben and Landry Jones). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
