Either Nathan Peterman or Terelle Pryor will start for the Bills at QB this weekend.

And Todd Gurley has still scored more points than the Bills this season - outscoring them 8-6 this week.

Nathan Peterman gets no respect. He might be starting this week, but Yahoo Fantasy football currently has him as their 70th ranked quarterback.

Johnny Hekker is a better, more aware QB than Peterman.

Bills current QB depth chart - Peterman, Matt Barkley, Terrelle Pryor.

Bears -10 is a gift.

Whatever the hell a Nick Mullens is will be starting tonight for the 49ers. Tonight on paper is maybe the worst game in NFL history.

I read it is the worst combined records in a post-Halloween prime time NFL game ever.

Frisky start though. 7-3 and Mullens with a long TD drive and his first TD pass.

Also had Raiders D. Hadn’t watched them and was unaware that the entire team had quit on Gruden weeks ago. Honestly, that was the most blasé, emotionless team I have seen in a long time.

I mean, completely quit. Totally mailed in. That TD run from Mostert (pre-broken arm) was a we-don't-want-to-do-this collective effort from the Raiders D.

That team's only win was a gift from Gregg Williams and the refs. I am a Bills fan who feels a hell of a lot better about their future than Raiders fans should feel about their team.

I picked up the Raiders' defense and sat George Kittle when it was announced Mullens would start, so it appears I have one-upped some of you.

I tried to come up with something I could put together, but Adams and JuJu are the only players you could use, and I need to keep them for next year. If you see anyone else on my team you want (Cousins or Demaryius Thomas?), feel free to float a trade, but I can't give up a keeper for a 33 year old mediocre RB.

I picked up Arizona's defense two Thursdays ago a few minutes before they played Denver on the "bad defense against worse offense" strategy. Apparently this is a bad strategy.

Gareon Conley would need GPS directions to follow a WR's route. It was pretty obvious yesterday why nobody traded for him.

I thought Mike McGlinchey would be meh at best in the NFL. He looked All-Pro running down the field on the Mostert play (and he's supposedly been good all year so another miss for GPJ).

The Raiders quit harder than a Bill O'Brien team.

Yeah, it happens. The league site still has me as a slight favorite even after the Raiders' D posted a -4, though, so hope springs eternal.

The good news is I was able to pick up Fitzpatrick on waivers this week with the last choice and then the guy I cut (Alex Smith) got snapped up on our second waiver cycle. No idea how that happened.

Hearing some pretty strong rumors that Mark Davis is considering selling the Raiders to the Fertitta family. (LV casino billionaires, UFC, Red Rock/Stations resorts).

Presumably sale price would be about $500M more (or maybe more!) from pre-LV move evaluation so we might have to consider that Mark Davis is a smart dude actually.

Someone’s going to get holding the bag pretty soon on Big Five franchise evaluations. It’s the one bubble that’s never burst. $2 billion (or anything near it) for the Raiders or any team that isn’t throwing off massive cash in profits is fucking crazy.
