    Let's wait to see what transpires with what we got in OL. I mentioned in another thread some time ago. I don't think the Bills neglected O-Line. This past two years they invested 3 out of 7 picks on O-Line and a mide level FA in one year; a 3rd round pick this year + another FA. You can't say they neglect. You may argue their investment is not very good.

    Still think the three they drafted last year have good chance to become long term starters for us....

    Kujo is still only 21 younger than Glenn when we drafted him..

    He will be a stud..

    Not that it happens a whole lot anymore regardless, but you can now officially say goodbye to fake field goals for 2 point conversions

    Hmmmm.....good point. The LOS is now different. Can they line up for the 2 pt conversion and then kick it through?

    The NBA should take note and do something - ANYTHING - about free throws.
    Lehner's history. He just doesn't know it yet.

    Actually, I think it does exactly the opposite.

    Since every team plays every game in the same conditions, when a game is played in a dome, both teams have the easier time of making a kick from 13 yards further away.

    When a dome team plays in a bad weather city, like Buffalo, they will be at a disadvantage because their team is not used to playing in such difficult conditions as the home team.

    Its days like this that I am happy Jake Arians has not been our kicker in 14 years.

    i wonder how vegas changes the spreads. they have no data to go on, but maybe looking at 33 yard field goals over the course of the season. imagine they need to take this into account plus the unknown of when coaches will go for 2 knowing that it is much closer to endzone.

    especially late in the season.

    The spreads work on the way people are betting not game factors...they try and make the spreads such that people bet on both sides equally then they win all the ties and make a killing.
