Am I the only one impressed by how the spreads are so small? Cardinals Bills at just 6??? I feel like I am missing something

41 sats \ 0 replies \ @Jer 4 Sep

Week 1 is always a wild card.

31 sats \ 1 reply \ @Wumbo 3 Sep

Just a hypothesis (may not be correct):

Generally do spreads grow or shrink as we get closer to kickoff?

31 sats \ 0 replies \ @Cje95 3 Sep

I feel it is going to change just based off of betting action as well as possible injuries to be announced!

31 sats \ 0 replies \ @siggy47 3 Sep

Yes. I noticed that too. Maybe it's the unpredictability of week 1.

31 sats \ 17 replies \ @Undisciplined 3 Sep

There are a lot of question marks week 1, because we haven't seen anything yet.

67 sats \ 16 replies \ @Cje95 3 Sep

For some of them yes but I mean Cardinals at the Bills??? All of them being ~3 or less is just insane

51 sats \ 8 replies \ @HardMoney 5 Sep

Cards have a sneaky good offense this year imo

0 sats \ 6 replies \ @Bell_curve 6 Sep

who is their OC or playcaller?

21 sats \ 5 replies \ @HardMoney 6 Sep

Same as last. Drew Petzing, kinda an unknown.

Main reason I like them is Kyler is a year removed from his ACL and they got Marv Harrison. Trey McBride is a top 5 TE and Michael Wilson / Dortch are solid WR 2/3.

James Conner + Trey Benson are pretty solid runners too.

A lot of talent on offence that is pretty under the radar.

21 sats \ 3 replies \ @Cje95 6 Sep

Do they have an O line though? With Kyler continuously getting hurt he is going to need it to protect him!

21 sats \ 2 replies \ @HardMoney 6 Sep

On paper their oline should be serviceable. They were a top 5 rushing team last year believe it or not.

Kyler’s only had 1 major injury too being a non contact ACL tear. Made him miss end of 2022 and beginning of 23

He was an assistant under Kevin Stefanski in Minnesota and Cleveland

Good? or better?

31 sats \ 6 replies \ @Undisciplined 3 Sep

I've been kind of surprised how many commentators seem down on the Bills this year.

132 sats \ 5 replies \ @Cje95 3 Sep

Yeah I am not sure if I missed something or not but Diggs wasn't some super-needed piece for them. I will be pissed though if he is the cancer rumors say he is and messes with my Texans!

I was also pretty shocked to see the Browns favored over the Cowboys... look I hate the Cowboys but again what pieces did they lose that would make you think ahhh nope. Dak is playing in a contract year and cannot be tagged thanks to his contract wording. Do people still rally expect Watson to perform? Again bias Texans fan but he seems just beat and washed.

36 sats \ 1 reply \ @Bell_curve 3 Sep

Diggs contract is for only one season.

Browns are at home, their defense played better at home last year

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @Cje95 3 Sep

Yeah I was a fan of voiding the two other years tbh. This will either make or break him and I like the Texans depth at WR already

122 sats \ 2 replies \ @Undisciplined 3 Sep

For Buffalo, I think missing Milano on their defense is the bigger deal, but I'm not worried about them.

I think people forget how good the Cowboys are in the regular season, because the last we usually see of them is an embarrassing playoff exit.

22 sats \ 1 reply \ @Bell_curve 3 Sep

Milano is a big loss for their defense

edit: looks like he is done for the season after missing most of last season

60 sats \ 0 replies \ @Cje95 3 Sep

I mean the Bills didn't exactly struggle last year though which is why it just seems odd to me esp since who knows what the Cards will look like

reply on another page

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @grayruby 3 Sep

Cardinals should be better this year. Not good, but better and I think Vegas isn't sure what to make of the Bills yet with all their departures and a couple notable injuries. Seems a little light but for week 1 it's not too far off.

20 sats \ 1 reply \ @Bell_curve 3 Sep

The Seattle spread seems high

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @Cje95 3 Sep

Yeah it does esp. when you factor in how the other ones are... 4 seems more likely than 6

73 sats \ 1 reply \ @Bell_curve 3 Sep

Friday game is in Brazil

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Bell_curve 4 Sep

I wonder if highlights will be on X or Twitter

Will anyone attending the game like American journalists be able to use X?

386 sats \ 2 replies \ @grayruby 3 Sep

Stepped up my game this year and actually created a spreadsheet that I will post each week.

Thanks, but me track record isn't great.

131 sats \ 3 replies \ @Undisciplined 3 Sep

I'll put the nostr survivor pool link here, too.

I'm going to wait for injury reports and whatnot, because I want to start out with New Orleans and I know that's insane.

21 sats \ 2 replies \ @grayruby 3 Sep

I will join the other pool too. I don't like that I have to sign up for some random website to do it though.

50 sats \ 1 reply \ @Undisciplined 3 Sep

It does seem completely unnecessary.

Im surprised you haven't standardized a submission format to make things clearer/easier for yourself. Anyway, thanks commish

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @StackerSports OP 3 Sep

I like to make things difficult for myself. I actually created a spreadsheet this year so things are looking up.

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @Bell_curve 4 Sep

Like type form or Google forms?

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @sudocarlos 4 Sep

Just something simple like:

#mypick seattle

And maybe create a bot to see and record that automatically. Even without a bot it kind of sticks out. Are there tags or hashtags or something on sn?

21 sats \ 1 reply \ @Carresan 3 Sep

So here I go! My knowledge about NFL is very small. However, thanks to @Bell_curve , I could check some websites. I will go for the Buffalo Bills in week 1.

That's the spirit. You are not alone. The Bengals did a number on 8 players. Recap post will be up tomorrow and then those that got eliminated can buy back in and make a pick for next week.
