Despite last Sunday’s shocking 20-17 loss to the NY Jets, Vegas claims the 6-2 Buffalo Bills are 6 1/2 point favorites over the 7-1 Minnesota Vikings. The Bills are suffering from a number of key players being injured so I’m dreading to see what will happen in this game if Josh Allen, who has an elbow injure, can’t start. How will your favorite NFL do today?
We play the Bucs. If we don’t screw up, we ought to win.
Bob, Gino Smith and the Seahawks have been the Surprise Team in the NFL this season. Hope they beat Brady and the Bucs!
The pitiful 3-6 Saints journey to Pittsburgh to take on the equally mired-at-the-bottom 2-6 Steelers. The Saints—plagued by injuries, inconsistent play, and expensive self-inflicted penalties—now limp their way to the end of the season. I’ll have the game on tv, but I’m not sure I’ll be watching it.
Deb, it looks like the Saints will be drafting high in the Spring. I’m guessing they’re going to go for a new Quarterback.
Hopefully the rams and chiefs will prevail against whoever they play. And hope the chargers lose dramatically. Hoping good things for the Bills.
Amazing that Philly as of last week was the only undefeated team
Maggie, the Eagles have faced some weak teams. I suspect they will lose a game in December.
Nice picture!
For once, the Giants (coming off their bye) are actually favored, as they host the Texans at the Meadowlands. Its a must win game, especially with the later part of the schedule loaded up with Division rivals.
Jeff, the Texans have played a lot better than I expected. This could be a close game with the Giants.
Well, so far, so good for the Giants and the Bills.
I’m not a sports fan but this report I had to read:
https://www.spiegel.de/sport/american-football/erstes-nfl-spiel-in-deutschland-tom-brady-brilliert-in-muenchen-buccaneers-schlagen-seahawks-a-911b7a9f-6e3b-4b99-98a9-391b90b8c527
Around 70 000 people in Munich watched the buccaneers down the seahawks
And:
45 years old Tom Brady was the winner!
I’m at halftime, watching the Red Zone. Bills held after turnover, then marched down for a TD and a 2 TD lead. Allen looks OK so far. Niners go this evening. Maybe we’ll both go to bed happy tonight.
Evidently not in Buffalo. Insane game!
Art, the Bills keep making mistakes that result in defeats!
What a game. WHat a finish! Sorry the Bill scame out on the wrong end.
This is totally NOT hindsight, but…why didn’t they take the safety? They were up 4 with 44 seconds left, on their own half yard line. You take the safety, then kick it away from the 20. Yes, they would only need a field goal, but …
Jeff, I’m with you. The Bills should have taken the safety and then forced the Vikings to go the length of the field with the seconds left on the clock. Another winnable game…lost!
