I agree that Dalton's quick release may pad the o-line's stats, but they're still one of the best groups in the league. They pass the eye test in every way.  The only area where I feel that they could improve as a whole is with their penalties.

I think the o-line is a little overrated, but they're still very good. I have no idea what's going on with my boy Hill, but the kid proved he has skills last year. Maybe they're too predictable when he's in there?

That was a very good D line and overall defense the Bills had and the Oline was able to shut them down today, which we knew was coming because of the shitty plays they gave up against the 'Hawks. The way they played today proves their moxy. They're capable of keeping Andy clean every game.

Hill isn't running with the same vision he had last year, I don't know why. But Gio has been excellent and even Jeremy too, in the redzone. Together, they're a perfect match. The run game may not be taking the NFL by storm, but it's keeping defenses honest for the most part and even better in the redzone. All in all, this Oline is right up there with the best in the league. It all starts with Big Whit, so finally he's getting the recognition he deserves.

He only gets rid of the ball about a half second faster than most other QBs and he is not avoiding sacks by getting rid of the ball a half second before he is hit.  For the most part he is not seeing much pressure at all.

It is not based on who is best. It changes due to money wagered as like at the horse track.....Now, a Las Vegas line on fantasy football probably works the same way, not who is best but players being wagered on the most, so the gamblers have to lay off some of the wagers to cover their rear ends....So if this thread is about gambling, and if the lines are based on gambling, then the line is probably based on money wagered. Gamblers and bookies do not look at who the best team/ player is and such, it is all about taking bets and then laying them off to cover the bets so that either way, the house wins. So maybe if everybody is taking one WR, they try to push some other WR's to lay off their bets. 

2 things about Fantasy Football or any gambling is that to the gambler, it is not about the sport, it is all about money......and, anything that can be bet on can be crooked. Now that doesn't mean they rig the games, but they can slip in false winners after the games. So you the customer think you did great but you then find others did better, but how do you know those others are not placed in the pool by the gamblers AFTER the games. Anything you bet on can be rigged and crooked.  Case in point would be a crooked football pool that is putting in fake slips after the games. You would have to pick every game right and the Monday Night tie breaker just to beat the rigged system.  Do I trust gamblers, no. For the most part, it is all a rigged game, and fantasy football can be rigged also.
