Screen passes to Shakir are working well. When’s the last time we had a good screen game? Thurman?

Not a lot of Allen discussion. Another MVP level performance. Making more amazing intermediate and long distance throws and dimes than we’ve seen in years. Allen is currently playing at a top tier HOF QB level. Favre-like but less dangerous throws and turnovers.

Prisoner of the moment is a great way to describe casual football conversation in general. No second level thinking. What happened in the past will be projected to the future into infinity, until the next new thing happens.

Lots of Bills fans like to put low ceilings on everything, as if it’s fact.

13 Seconds though. Allen has done the same time and time again. The team lets him down. Mahomes comes through, but so does Kelce and Butker time and time again. Another common narrative that falls apart under the microscope. Ah NOW the WR talent matters. Funny how that didn’t factor in when Mahomes had Hill and Kelce and Allen had Brown and Beasley and Gabe Davis. Another nonsense narrative.

Because Allen broke out in 2020. It’s a huge sample size. Allen is and has been the better QB. It’s been a nice ride, after the Chiefs playoff exit this year you should get used to a lot of losing and coming up short from now on. Long way down.

It’s clear as day if you can read data. Allen >= Mahomes Bills < Chiefs Great job with the playoff win loss projections if those 50/50 plays went the other way. About time somebody did that. Simply put, anybody that say Mahomes is clearly better than Allen is wrong. The universe has a way of balancing things out, so you can predict what the next 5 years will bring. Allen holding trophies.

The guy had concussions two games in a row. Let’s be real. Of course he’s a bit hesitant to run. In the long run it’s good because it’ll force him to throw the ball.

Bernard alone is enough.

“That’s a bad bad step losing man.”

250+ before 29. 300 before 30?

Not clear yet. Milano was really healthy before the recent breaks. Bernard we'll see. He is a bit undersized.

I wouldn’t pencil Darnold in as a resurrection case yet. There’s plenty of time this season for the Cinderella story to end on the bench.

I watched MVP Lamar fumble the game away against the Bengals in OT. The Bengals kicker missed a FG and Henry broke a long run and the Ravens won. Now I need to hear about how “Lamar is balling out” and Allen has no shot. Nobody has any idea what they’re talking about.

Glad the casual fan is finally realizing this golden boy has been carried by invisible forces his entire career. Allen is and will always be better.

It will be Lamar or Mahomes, but I suspect Allen’s stats will be so good that the casual fan will slowly start waking up to the narratives against Allen.

You don’t know anything about winning.

At this point I’d bet on Rosen being a bust at Wharton too.

I’m more worried about him mentally. I don’t like the look on his face every time they show him on the sidelines. Coming back from two major injuries to get back to an All-Pro level is only for the toughest of the tough. We’ve proven everything there is to prove in the regular season.

So tired of the same stale arguments over and over and over. Here’s a new one. The Chiefs are a mirage. They are on a slow decline and are not as good as their record. They will lose in the 1st or 2nd round this year. The Allen vs Mahomes narrative will switch to Mahomes can’t beat Allen in the playoffs because his team is not as good as the Bills. This will all happen with McDermott as coach. And lots of fans will need to look inward and figure out why they picked a scapegoat when it was only chance and the flip of a coin that prevented the Bills from winning the big one sooner.

An absolute blessing to have him as our QB. The fans deserved this.

Fans are sick of Mahomes. And the casual fan is on to the preferential treatment shown by the refs leading to multiple questionable wins this season alone for the Chiefs. The Chiefs record has an asterisk to it. The surface level knee jerk reactions to why Allen doesn’t get the credit he deserves, don’t survive close scrutiny. The answer to OP’s question is simple. Allen came in with an EXTREME bust label, and he went to Buffalo. It’s one thing to admit you were wrong about a bust. It’s a whole other thing to triple down on that bust and then watch that bust become the best QB in the league and an all-timer. It’s credibility destroying. There is a movement to prevent that from happening by very selfish and insecure people.

This is what it comes down to at the end of the day. People are arguing over technical minutiae invented out of thin air by corporate employees of the NFL. Any rule that tells you Coleman’s catch shouldn’t count, should be thrown in the dumpster.

The respect is coming. The stats are too good. 1 Super Bowl and all narratives shift.

Cook is a poor man’s Kamara. Samuel is still injured.
