Bad bet.

A dangerous bet when 4 of those games are against the bills and jets.

The Bills are IMHO a little better than people think this year. I have them picked for 2nd in the ALE and they could sneak into a playoff spot.

The Bills are a 9 win football team

yeah that's where I have their o/u too. They don't really have the elite talent to do much better than that, but they also don't have any obvious deficiencies.

Sure, they play the Jets twice, but the 'Fins are actively trying to suck. When the Jets do that they win meaningless games down the stretch and then fork over additional firsts to move up a few spots to wreck another young qb. Long story short, i think the dolphins can actively suck worse than the Jets do by default.

The Dolphins are now roughly 20% implied probability to go 0-16, whereas they were only about 3% prior to this game. If the bettor wants, he could hedge this bet and still make a lot regardless of the outcome.

Quarterback.

Really? Josh Allen is looking pretty solid so far. Granted they're only playing the Jets and the Giants so far, but for a 2nd year guy, Allen looks like he's starting to round into shape for them.

I think the same.. When Rosen wins the starting job they will be (slightly) better and might steal a game or two
And never doubt the jets and bills ability to suck..
