    So last week my running backs were Ingram, Ellington, Bradshaw, and Lacy. Widely regarded to have the best and deepest RB squad in my league. So I give Lacy to my father-in-law as a pity trade since his team imploded. Then of course bradshaw goes out... from 4 down to 2...

    Blount back to the Pats for the minimum + incentives. Probably the only team that could pick him up and not have him be a cancer, so good deal all around.

    Bills game may be postponed or held at an alternate location. I'm now hearing that 9 feet is predicted in some areas. I'm about 2 miles from the stadium and we have 5, will probably be 7 by tomorrow.

    My most sincere hope is that it gets delayed and we have the game on Thanksgiving, but I'm betting it will either be Monday or Tuesday.

    This might be the most Belichick signing ever.

    Let a dude the fanbase wants back (whom you traded for pennies on the dollar) walk for an overvalued contract and get him back less than a season later for even better pennies on the dollar because you turned some nobody into a somebody who will himself probably be traded for overvalued draft picks.

    Fucking yes

    Apparently, all those people shovelling snow for the Bills won't even get to see the game this Sunday as the league is debating moving the game out of Buffalo.

    Don't worry. Due to the driving ban (and the condition of the roads in general in Orchard Park) no one was actually able to make it there.

    So a normal home game for the bills?

    We're firmly in the middle of the pack (16th) in attendance. Not bad for one of the smallest markets, with a consistently shitty team, and an open air stadium in an area prone to lousy weather.

    I figured as much, but Buffalonians are naturally defensive at even the smallest slight, perceived or otherwise. :)

    We were actually 19th last year and that was with a game in Toronto that didn't even count.

    Drives ya nuts to have a game blacked out with 50k people there only to see tarps on the seats at a Jags game.

    I know I'm a bills fan, the bills are generally a joke in their division despite being in the same division with the jets and the god damn dolphins.

    This storm probably will nix our chances at going 3-3 in the division too.

    Then again, the Jets are pretty bad.

    The jets do suck, but the bills get surprisingly incompetent when playing a bad team. Then again the jets...

    Hey the Dolphins haven't stupidly blown their season yet. Wait till we miss the playoffs by losing to the Jets two years in a row.

    When snow makes your home stadium a giant mess, Detroit will provide a field for you to play on. Jets vs Bills is moved to Detroit on Monday

    Edit: If the Bills win, I wonder if they carry Jim Schwartz out on their shoulders again.

    Back in the 80s, the Giants used to clear snow out of the stadium by telling LT it was coke and letting him go wild.

    Putting the Jets and Bills in Detroit just makes sense. No city knows terrible football quite as well as Detroit, it'll be like seeing the Lions playing the Lions.

    If the Patriots win, I think that coaching is their edge. Detroit's defense is terrifying, and Megatron can score TDs out of nowhere. I think that on paper, looking at player skills and abilities, the Patriots and Lions are about even, maybe even favouring the Lions.

    However, I expect the Lions to make terrible descisions. It's just what they do.

    Patriots still have a chance to win if Detroit remembers that they're the Lions and does something incredibly stupid.

    Player skill and ability definitely go to the Lions.

    But as it has been show multiple times this year, Lombardi is a horrible OC that can be outcoached like whoa. I trust Austin to have our defense as ready as he can, but Belichick might just give him a clinic on exploiting weaknesses.

    I'd take Brady over Stafford on short throws, Stafford over Brady on long throws.
    I'd take Gronk over Megatron, but the overall recieving corps of the Lions over that of the Patriots.
    I'm not entirely sure which offensive line I'd take. If the Patriots can keep Brady up, I'll favor them.
    I'd take the Lions defensive line over that of the Patriots, but the Patriots secondary over that of the Lions.

    Bill Belichick as coach is like having a cheat code.

    Er, wait a minute...

    Exactly. I think Belichick makes his players better. So raw skill and talent goes to the Lions, imo, but the Patriots play-up and are put in better situations due to superior coaching.

    If Beli was coaching the Lions, with the talent they have, they'd be undefeated right now.
