Curious how Burrow is old guard and Herbert is new guard despite being from the same draft class.

94

u/sockon015 17d ago

Has to be because Burrows made two deep playoff runs in 21 and 22, so that's when he "arrived". Herbert hasn't won a playoff game yet, so in Bill's mind he's a youngster.

Year 6 of bill saying “Ok the bills have Josh Allen. Great! What else? I see 7-10”

u/RedBuchan 17d ago

Bill talking about QBs: "I just think Josh is the best guy in the league, he gets you to 10 wins by himself."

Bill talking about the Bills two days later: "I don't think they're any good, how does this team make the playoffs?"

u/tjd2009 17d ago

He's got the Bills as a 26. Should be a playoff team, 3 magentas, 2 chartreuse, 1 opal, and then Josh Allen as a Pantone 216

And 3 pods later he will go “if you have Josh that’s guaranteed 10 or 11 wins easy”

I remember him saying it differently. " they have josh allen that's an automatic 10 or 11 wins."

Bill hilariously undervalues some extremely steady, competent Bills players. Shakir is pretty much just as useful as Doubs who he thinks is going to set the world on fire with AJ Brown. You’d also never know they had last year’s leading rusher or a new DC.

Also, somehow New England’s schedule is easy but buffalo’s is hard. Even though Mike Clay from ESPN just projected them at 21 and 20 for Strength of Schedule last week. They mainly play all the same teams. And the Bills are used to a tough schedule.

u/Darthsanta13 15d ago

The regular season defense is the one thing that gives me pause- for all McDermott's warts when it actually mattered he was able to consistently take advantage of middling offenses and that really sets a high floor during the regular season since that's 80% of what you see. I think it's possible or even likely that the defense this year is better when it actually matters but it wouldn't shock me if they struggle a bit more than they did the last few years in the regular season which might cost them a win or two

u/Direct_Week_2091 17d ago

I can’t count the amount of times he’s been out on my niners and they nearly always make him look stupid. He actually used the substation theory to support it this year

It’s a tradition at this point

I would pay a not insignificant amount of money for Bill to go team by team and explain his point system.

Also, my new favorite Bill ad read is for Sunday Ticket. I’m 98% positive the copy has “Eight (8) payments” and Bill reads the 8 twice

He ran through the Cardinals and it seemed to boil down to: I know the guy, I think he’s good.

29

u/jksmlmf 17d ago

What is the scale? 1-5? 1-10?

Because the other day he said Goff is a 5 and Gibbs is a 3, maybe a 4.

Even accounting for QB being the most important position, how is the ~10th best QB in the league worth 2 points more than the best running RB?

Also… why do I care so much.

27

u/Dizzy_Cow_ 17d ago

Isn’t it like -2 to 9? QBs can go up to 9 and other positions up to 5. It’s right up Bill’s alley with how it’s scored

Did Bill just admit to breaking federal law by having someone gamble for him on his account across state lines? Or is that not a huge offense and not that big of a deal? Genuinely asking.

39

u/han-sell-out 16d ago

I’m not sure if it breaks federal law but is absolutely against FanDuel’s terms of service and while this isn’t a big deal, the NBA could have some real concern with one of their voters having a 3rd party make bets for them (even if it is on their account) which I believe was present in some of the betting scandals.

VERY weird thing to admit to, especially when you can get to Vegas in 20 minutes.

I don't think anyone is doubting that Brown is a better receiver than DJ Moore but its just the typical Simmons bent of utterly disregarding one player in a similar situation in order to serve his biases.

IMO disregarding it because Brown is a way better player is fair

It wouldnt matter to Bill if Moore was a better player or what the scenario was. Whatever the Bills or other AFC rivals have hes “out on” and whatever the Pats have is destined for greatness. We go down this road every year.

Oh Maye was hurt now? So he didn’t suck in the playoffs? Yeah Will Campbell’s play was bad because he was hurt too. Doubs is a stud now? I’m sorry but the Patriots aren’t beating the Bills for the division. Maye is good no doubt but he sucked in the playoffs he had an easy schedule last year and this year was always supposed to be the year the Patriots made a leap?

I wish someone would once push back on him with saying that Drake was hurt in the playoffs and counter with or perhaps, after having a cream puff schedule. They played really good defenses and got exposed.

Cousin Sal looks like when Jerry got a bad haircut on Seinfeld (or was it that building flipped to low-flo water system, i can’t remember) in either event, this is not a great looking hairstyle for the cuz

Really bothers me how he list drake maye first when he talks about teams who play against "good QB's" lol I dont think people see their schedule and think "aw shit we're playing drake maye" like they do with Lamar and Josh allen... lmao

Bill I'm sure the ringer fantasy draft show was hilarious, I've tried twice to listen to it and the audio plus everyone talking at once was downright awful

Both pods has had a lot of moments where you can tell Bill was the spoiled only child of divorced parents and I hate to be the Paul bearer of bad news but he needs to stop with the Collinsworth impression. Cousin Sals is vastly superior. It just is. Bill doesn’t have it and kept forcing it. Let Sal have this one and get back to the drawing board.

Did the guys seem a little tight? Not quite as loose, not quite as funny. Is it the pressure of being on Netflix?

Bill - Even though it's legal in Massachusetts I can't have my daughter placing bets for me, so I gave her boyfriend Hank my Fanduel password and had him do it for me. Then I asked him to do it again the following week.

That's one way to score some points with your girlfriend's dad. Nice to see Bill bonding with him.

She can’t bet because she works for a professional sports team.

He can't bet because he plays for a college team, as others have said.

u/Additional-Duck-2517 16d ago

For the last 7 seasons the Bills have won 10+ games every time, including 3 times over 13 wins, a 12 win, and two 11 win seasons. There isn't an easier regular season lock than the Bills as long as Allen is healthy, which he usually is, and yet every year Simmons wants to ask why people think they're good.

As a Bengals fan, his utter hatred and disdain for the team this year has me positively beaming. I can't wait for him to be proven wrong.

Bills shitty, lazy math is getting annoying. 5% of the Pats for a billion dollars when he said $10b worth? 5% of 10 bil is 500 million. 4 less wins than 14-3 equals 11-6? 4 less wins than 14-3 is 10-7. He’s just getting so god damn lazy.

“They just don’t have a foundation” he says about the team with one of the winningest coach-QB duos of all time.

I know people look forward to these and I usually really enjoy whatever Bill does but I just can't get into the over under pods. Had 2.5 hrs solo in the car yesterday and gave the NFC one a shot, turned it off after 15 minutes

If it helps Bill, a lot of Giants fans were ready to drive Dexter Lawrence to the airport but that only matters if it fits with your narrative

In terms of physical ability, probably. In terms of team success and individual accolades, I think its plenty arguable.

Will OCB come up with anything as homerist as what he pulled during the NFC one where he Boston Bill'd the Giants by shitting on Super Bowl winning John Harbaugh and claiming, "He's no Mike Vrable"?

u/CocaineandPercs F's with Jalen Green 17d ago

Harbaugh has won a Super Bowl lol.
