Truth. I think you're on to something mentioning defense. Denver is not going to have one and they won't be able to outscore the other teams in the division. [Reply]

Do you think, if he traded them all now, that he'd be able to get a decent swing tackle for them?
5 starters on the best team in the league? A DE who dominated the playoffs en route to a SB victory? I’ll take it!
And he does even more in later rounds!
Think about it…even without Hill, King Veach has put together a roster with 7 times as many players with an 80+ PFF as the loooooooaded Broncos! Plus a pair of first rounders! Dayum! Dy-no-mite! [Reply]

If Simms turns out to be correct...the Wilson trade will go down as one of the biggest blunders in recent NFL history.
Giving up all those future assets only to break even or get worse...then having to pay him $45 million+ with no real means to improve the team.
It will actually top anything Horseface did...at least the crappy QBs he brought in didnt hinder his gift to waste top draft capital or overpay average players. [Reply]

They won't need the defense if they have the refs and the league. [Reply]

We saw an awful lot of head-scratching upsets in the inaugural NFL/Vegas collaboration season...more than I can ever remember...spread out through the entire league. It wasn't just one good team having an off week...
That's what the NFL is to me now..."Which team tanks this week...hope it isn't the one I like."..."Why did KC stop running the ball when they were getting 7 YPC in the first half" ...."Checks the over/under and point spread...the shift in play calling suddenly makes sense"
Just so you know...the money was on the Bills in that "best game ever played". They also had the point advantage....which I pointed out before the game...that KC could score at will and Vegas would still profit.
End of the game with 13 seconds...no need to protect the borders...KC had timeouts. Buffalo does exactly what you would never do. Nevermind a squib/short kick takes some time off too. KC throws two passes in the middle...Vegas profits. Casinos won on EVERY post-season game last year...and how many came down to the last play? The odds are lottery level...yet they still pulled it off.
Some black arts voodoo they have going on... [Reply]
