I'm not usually a big fan of hindsight drafting, and I think Beane et all have done a great job overall drafting high-character, high-motor guys. But I do think they might have whiffed when they drafted Cody Ford instead of WR DK Metcalf in the second round last year. It's too early to be sure, and Ford could eventually become a monster, but we really could use a big, fast receiver like Metcalf, and we already had a nicely developing guard in Wyatt Teller. (Yes, they were/are hoping Ford will be RT, but his feet seem just too slow for that position.) I'll take a whiff in the second for a hit in virtually every other draft spot, but, let's face it, they seem to have blown it in the second. Do you agree?
I remember character being mentioned somewhere regards metcalfe. That plays into this regimes thinking

Yes.
3rd quarter is absolutely the problem.
I saw Allen's numbers in the 3rd quarter in an article I think in The Athletic recently and they are utterly atrocious. On the flip side, his numbers in just the other 3 quarters are really impressive.
I don't know what's going on at the half, but it needs to be fixed.
Its a sign that killer instinct isn't close to being there yet. I remember Allen saying in a presser to the question of the after half slump that 'we need to come out with more juice'.
I found that concerning.

I can live with 3rd Quarter Josh if I also get 4th Quarter Josh.
4tg QTR josh is his biggest strength. The closest thing I've seen to him having that IT factor. That and his short memory.

Probably on his way to NE.

I think (just a wild guess) what he is pointing to is that in 3 of our 5 games we got a lead in the 1st half, looked like we might score a bunch and then stumbled offensively quite a bit in the 3rd quarter, for any given number of reasons.
That poster might believe that a slight or major shift in game plan is the primary reason for the slowdown. The old school "protect the lead"mentality.
Just a guess.
This 3rd quarter thing is a problem. I'd love to see the stats on the offence coming out of half time. We never score there!

Definitely, which is pretty amazing considering how good he was when he was with us.
I remember many people saying it he wasn't worth the kind of money he was wanting, but he's been one of those rare players who lived up to every penny of their contracts & then some. Pats definitely got their money's worth.Yeah, Their corners look hard to score on

It still bums me out seeing how good Stephon Gilmore is...
He was a top 10 corner with us, but he's gotten even better with the Pats, it's insane how much of a lockdown corner he's become.He's got better

According to NFL Draft Diamonds, Browns are beginning to listen to offers for Odell Beckham Jr.
I don’t l know that I would change the WR room drastically at this point. I think Bills need Offensive Line and LB help. But, fwiw...
Edit: Mods I didn’t see any threads with this info, if I missed it - apologize and delete at as you will, thanks.
Locker room problem? Asked for a trade?

Let's see if we beat the pats in foxborough. Hopefully we do

Your attempt to blend in as a "Bills fan" is exposed based on your seeming love for the Patriots. There are a ton of message boards (I assume) for band wagon Patriots fans.
Haha, brilliant. I was waiting for a post like this. So I have to be a homer to be a fan here right?
I know more objective posts are not appreciated by some. Being objective should still allow for 'giving credit where it's due' - which I will always do.
Look at the stats, you don't need me to tell you the pats are still good.

They only went last year because of a coin toss.
I guess what I'm saying is I'll believe the patriots demise when I see it.

I still think the Chiefs are the only potential challengers to the Pats (unless we get our offense together, so we can challenge them as well). The Ravens and Texans are much better than anyone they have played this season, but are also both overrated and not real contenders imo.
As great as the chiefs are, they really worry me playing the Pats. Their defence shows not signs of NOT FOLDING.

They have a stretch of @Ravens, @Eagles, Cowboys , @Texans and Chiefs starting in a few weeks.
We’ll learn a lot about them during that stretch.
Yes

Yep. A lot of lazy "analysis" in disguise of fan boy and girl drool. A few get it.
Teams still need to beat them.
Just now, Bubba Gump said:Plenty of teams would be 6-0 playing their schedule so far.
Plenty of teams would of been to their last three Superbowls as well?

There are a lot of people who will just look and see 35-14 and say Oh, Patriots blew them out of course. And they'll have no idea just how vulnerable the Patriots look
Its whether teams can exploit their vulnerabilities and then stay mentally strong to finish them off.

Who have also, in their first 6 games, played 5 of the worst teams in football.
The arguments not going to wash when they've been to the last three Superbowls come on!

This is not the best team in football
I would tend to believe people that say this if there was something to back it up.
They are 5-0, probably going to be 6-0. They are statistically the best team in football.

It's kind of weird they went for it on 4th down with a decent chunk to go like they were expecting something.
They probably look at the odds of flags in their gameplan on 4th down. Any edge to win

People talking about the patriots not being as strong..
Remember when the patriots HAVE TO be better they usually are.

If he's throwing 20+ picks for the next few years that's a problem. But at this point in his developmental and given the type of QB he is it's not a big deal.
Agreed. If they believe in 'development'' with Allen it's actually good that he throws a few. I say that because of the type of QB he is. He's not tyrod. Hopefully he can be a Rivers.

Metcalfe got into a 'heated conversation' at his pre draft interview with the 49ers apparently. ?
Not going to bode well when others teams that are TEAM FIRST places like buffalo hear that.
