  1. I never saw in him what the "experts" saw in him for sure & now he's showing me that i was right & i love it !!
  2. Being a Bills fan we have seen just about all of the epic falls from grace that we can possibly imagine but i am one that holds hope that this team will be different ! I am not convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that Josh is "The Guy" just because of his inconsistency, sure he has a great arm, seems to be a great leader, can move really well, but accuracy is what they said it was coming out of college . He has improved but he has some similarity's to former Bills QB's EJ & Tyrod so until he shakes those comparisons in my mind he won't be "The Guy" but i am & will continue to hold out hope & when he can beat the teams like the Eagles the ones that are above just average then & only then will i say Okay he's our guy 100% !!
  3. Not really surprised with your statement these are the fans that threw uno balls and cussed out santa remember ? Any big city with a team especially on the east coast has those fans they can't just do some fun jabbing about it they have to take it all the way ! Don't go to LA either remember the guys that got stabbed in LA at the baseball game ? Thats why i dig B/lo so much the city is small enough to have some moral structure left in it's thought pattern & way of life, sure Bills mafia isn't to smart when it comes to jumping off things onto folding tables (which is pretty foolish) but at the end of the day that's on them & not on other teams fans ...
  4. Thanks for the intelligent & insightful answer that i was looking for & figured the normal reply's but hey at least three is one worth reading !! I'm not in a area to watch any of the games so i have to see what little i can on video from replay so i don't really know how he is doing although i have seen him in the back field a few times i guess i was just expecting more form his early draft position ! Thanks !!
  5. Let me start by saying I really like Allen as a leader & as a Bills type player not to mention his arm talent but his knock was his accuracy & to this point it has come up a few times & i really hope he can be "The Guy" in Buffalo because he would be a great fit . That being said the Bills had another QB not to long ago that had a good arm did a lot better in college than did Allen & had the same kind of knock against him coming out of college about his accuracy & he is no longer in the league that being EJ Manuel . Then you have the fact that there are 2 QB's thrust into the position in the last 2 seasons that have tore it up in Minshew in Jacksonville & the kid in SF Mullens last year that have taken the opportunity & turned it into gold ! Plus Teddy Bridgewater ain't doing to bad to this point in his resurgence ! I hope Josh can turn it on but if what this post's findings are true & he doesn't show real improvement quickly do they need to move on & grab one of those guys before some one else does or can the QB coach bring him along ? Let's keep our fingers crossed !!
  6. Okay i have been thinking about this for a while & i know that you the Bills fans will give your honest & unbiased opinion on it & some of you may even call me a dum ass for suggesting it but my skin has grown pretty thick since posting here so i'll throw this against the wall & see if it sticks . In the Bills past there has been a few players that they had brought on board at one position have seen some potential in them & thought that that could be utilized better at another position, the one that we most recognize with is of coarse Jason Peters he came to the Bills as a TE & they changed to LT to be one of the best to ever play the position for his entire career ! Oh & don't forget George Wilson changed from WR to a safety or DB what ever it was . The Bills have recently gotten a rookie that was said to play out of position in college (but did better there than what i've seen in the NFL to this point) & that when they brought him here they would put him at a different position better suited for him but to this point i'm not really seeing it . Ed Oliver is the player that i am talking about if you haven't guessed already . Upon him being drafted they said by putting him in the position he is now he would be a lot better player but from what i have seen to this point he is doing okay but the players here in the NFL are so much bigger than him although strong as he may be when you are out weighed by any where from 30 to 60 lbs that's got to be tough !! So i was thinking given his size, his get off & motor would he be better suited to be a DE opposite Hughs ? I've looked at some resent & past DE's in the NFL & he isn't as tall but around the same weight . Boss in SF is 6'4" 260 ish Bruce was 6'4" about the same in weight Oliver is 6' 1" 286 ? witch could give him a advantage at getting under a O lineman to get around him on the edge . I claim to be a fan & want the players the Bills get to have the best opportunity to produce but i don't really see Ed being that super talent at the position in the middle they need more of the Jordan Phillips/Horrible Harry in the middle than Ed IMHO. So is there anything to this thought or have any of you had the same thought, or is this just a fan dreaming of what might be nothing but a pipe dream ?
  7. He was one i was sad to see go the guy always left it all out on the field ! But it's not really a surprise seeing as the Fins are in tank mode the only guy on the team that gives a crap about winning is Fitz & if i was him i would be afraid of being traded !!
  8. I don't think he would ever leave the Texans but that would be awesome IMHO he is the best in the game the guy is money you put it near him & 9 out of 10 times he's coming down with it !!
  9. To this point like McD says play the one that deserves to be on the field & if he continues to not play up to his contract then cut him & give the spot to Phillips he is playing a lot better & deserves more playing time ! I would love to see Leslie just let him loose to see what he could do !! He is a big man & probably a better run stuffer & he loves it here so pay him & play him !!
  10. Could he ? Maybe he could ? UMMM ? I don't know i'm scared . But if he has turned the page well i just don't know ! Buffalo is a very low key kind of city as a few ex Bills have portrayed it to be Marshawn being one so who knows it might just work ??? But then who would be let go ?
  11. That's a bit much & just a tad on the ridiculous side but hey it's the NFL as stated in a earlier reply the "No Fun League" !! I just wish that he would have done it last year when Kyle was still on the team because Kyle actually called him on it & Josh apparently afraid of the repercussions didn't do it so Kyle ragged on him for it !!
  12. A lot of Bills mafia mis the old red helmets & a lot of us love the throw back uni's with the standing Buffalo on the helmet & when they went back to the white helmet which is kind of a throw back there was a bit of back lash about hat even, but as i polled around i found this ! https://newarena.com/nfl/nfl-uniforms-ranked-worst-to-best/30/?amxt=azdt_919_ob_signal In the article they rank all 32 teams uni's & although i do not agree with quite a few of their choices especially some that are ranked at he bottom of this write up i do agree that our Bills uni's are where they should be in the top 5 ! Go ahead check it out & see what you think i don't believe the #1 choice should be where it is & most of the top ranked uni's are old school which i tend to agree with, sometimes you just can't beat the classics no matter how hard you try ! But the #32 uni is right where it belongs IMHO ! Well check it out & let's see just what you a ll think, i believe the writer of this is off in his evaluation of where these uni's are but lets see what the Bills Mafia thinks !!
  13. Given their play against the Fins i would say they better get with it ! The Fins were last in every thing in the league & they took the Bills to the wood shed in the first half of what should have been a much easier game than what it started out to be . Although happy with he Bills record to this point i'm still waiting for the game that shows me they are what they say they are but to this point i haven't seen all of that just yet . The talent i believe is there but they still struggle, the Fins should have been a game that they made a statement & they did in a way, they're not there yet ! Coaching, scheme & talent are all there i just haven't seen it all come together just yet & even though i really like Allen he hasn't shown me that beyond a shadow of a doubt he's that guy . Yes he's got the tools & i can see his improvement but i guess i'm just wanting to much to soon !! I hope that he & the team continues to learn from each game going forward & by the end of the season they are hitting on all cylinders ! I believe they will make it to the play offs that being said I hope they beat the Pats next time around that would do a lot for our collective confidence in just how far they have come !! One thing i will say that i really like is they seem to get things figured out & are a better second half team than they are coming out of the gate & i would rather have them be better in the second half as long as our D continues to play the way they are ... Go Bills !!
  14. Gase may not last the year if he doesn't show some kind of something the rest of the season ...
  15. I believe he has learned from his mistakes which is a good thing & will be something he keeps & it will stay with him ! I have always told my kids your going to make mistakes but the difference is if you realize those mistakes, learn from them & don't continue to do them then they weren't a waste of your time !! This guy reminds me of a Anquan Boldin type of receiver !! Anything you throw the guys way he will catch & when your in crunch time & your down by a score he is the guy you can put full trust in that he will come down with the ball in any situation !! I was stoked when he Bills picked up Anquan & it sucked when he quit but i think Duke will be the Bills Bolden & i hope he sticks around for a long time !! DUUUUUUKE !!
  16. We have all seen how the NFL can take a young prospect at the QB position that show's really well in college & then sometimes for reasons that are out of their control they show very poorly when they hit the NFL . We have had quite a few over the years in Buffalo, a certain few immediately come to mind that IMHO could have done better if circumstances were a bit different ! Losman was one that i thought with some better coaching decisions & a possible attitude adjustment could have been a better QB because as the one good year he had it showed that he could do some good things in certain circumstances . Another that i think could have been better if given a different coach was Manuel, Marrone being the moron that he was didn't have a clue of how to bring along a young player let alone a QB which just added to his short comings in his development & to his eventual demise when it came to his NFL career ! Josh has shown that with a good QB coach Dorsey & a good support system D.A. & Barkley that you can develop & make baby steps into becoming a better QB yr to yr & eventually/hopefully becoming the franchise guy we thought he would be when drafted ! Then there are the young guys that just get a raw freakin deal & the one i am talking about is Rosen, this kid can't buy a break ! He shows good at times in absolutely terrible situations but given the circumstance the kid doesn't have a snow balls chance in hell of coming out on top !! Last year before the Bills draft he was one i wanted the Bills to draft given his college play, accuracy, & what seemed to be having that drive in most any position in a game to come back & win but as it stands & looks as of now i am glad Beane is the GM & not me !! That said I hope this guy can keep his head together long enough to get that coach & support staff not to mention a O line that can give the guy a fair shake to show what he might be able to do if he is in a decent situation because up to now on both teams this kid has been thrown to the wolves with a pork chop necklace & a T bone vest & his confidence has got to be taking a beating !! Maybe given the one person that can help him in Fitz, because let's face it he is a very resilient NFL QB for sure, maybe he can keep Rosen's head in it to become better when given the legit chance . But for now if this young QB can out last the storm he's in he might be able to become a better NFL QB ...
  17. I couldn't understand why they let all of their stud defensive guys go last off season & now it's coming back to haunt them literally ! Justin Houston in the Colts game gave them fits & he was one of the afore mentioned studs released ! Tamba Ali was another i couldn't understand why they let walk I know age had something to do with it but the dude was still producing & their D is less for letting him go too !! The Chiefs are the Bills alter ego they have a offense that can score with the best of them but their D is like non existent & their opponents can score at will to where our Bills D is awesome & the offense has a hard time scoring points . I hope after the bye the Bills come back & Josh gets into a groove with the addition of Duke & they run the table so this post will be just me blow smoke !!
  18. I think we got it last week when they brought Duke up & got rid of Zay ... Duke will make the catches that Zay missed especially in the red zone !! I believe moving forward Duke will become a favorite of Josh .
  19. I'm calling BS !! Bills are set at that position & thats not the way Beane works !!
  20. Man i hope not given the fact that Josh has a good relationship with Dabol & that having the same scheme is paramount to a young QB's development ! If there is a change it could hold Josh back in some instances which could put him in a long line of Bills QB's that have taken a very different & winding road to the trash heap & i hope that's not what happens because it looks like the Bills may have a good chance of him developing into the guy they have been in search of since Kelly's retirement . Not to mention Josh seems to fit the exact type to be a Bills player on & off the field !!
  21. If Jordon Philips continues to play the way he did last week he's got my vote !!
  22. We should be back to full strength after the bye & the rest of the yr if the guys can stay healthy & given the depth & the way the back ups have played one would hope that the play offs could be a definite this year !! GO BILLS !!!
  23. I thought because of the previous misses that this kick was going to be a gadget play of some sort but i'm glad it wasn't !! Those misses helped in the Bills win & McD needs to pull back his ego on the 4th down go for it plays that missed 4th down play where they could have had 3 points instead could have been the difference if their guy would have made a couple of those kicks !! I get having confidence in your offense but don't get to cocky put the points on the board when given the chance !!
  24. TAH DAH WE HAVE A WINNER !! ?
