JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS

Kid is going to light it up. Start him, please.

Nate Peterman. Maybe they are the same?

is that what the kids are calling it these days?

LOL OK Socrates … you are fixating on a technical incongruity and missing the overall point completely. But as another poster said, we will know more when JA plays this weekend.

I am guessing Allen's awesomeness would you say he has Chroise?

Concur. There have been many years since the SB days where we've had plenty of talent, but not the leadership needed to make a good team. Last year, we had less talent than many other years yet made the playoffs. One word: leadership. I firmly believe the Pegulas have found the best young coach in the NFL and he has brought tons of leadership talent over to us in the form of Beane, Frazier, Daboll, etc. Clap away McD!

Kid is going to light it up. Imagine how the home crowd will react when he makes a 78-yard TD for the go-ahead score. Drooling.

I think he's questioning Rosen's commitment to football. He has certainly made it seem like he would be equally happy doing other things with his UCLA education.

Negative. The days of Russ Brandon urging personnel moves to sell tickets are gone. The Pegulas trust the process. Allen will start this year. I think its more about making sure the new O-line is ready.

I didn't see the tape until this a.m. but just from listening on WGR I also thought "wow"!

Obviously your co-workers didn't watch the game … their perception will change when Allen plays on a Sunday.

true, but no way we move up for JA without paying more for the privilege. Bucs had no idea what they were giving us.

I don't think he is being evaluated … I think they are deciding which of the others will be kept as JA's backup.

Not untrue, but he is closer than many thought. I havnt seen video yet but from the radio coverage it sounded like he was plenty accurate. Foster did not help at all.

True dat, regardless of who our starting QB is, we have our #1 WR.

I had to listen on WGR radio stream but sounded like the kid made some impressive throws and reads. He is soon to be The Guy.

There are no longer news "reporters", only news repeaters. The host likely never read the actual scouting report, she was handed a couple bullet points on the teleprompter and picked one to talk about for oh, 10 seconds. Of course whoever put the talking points together didn't do any real research either and just repeated the "conventional wisdom" that the order of precedence would be based on which team guys are playing with. No journalism required … throw some inaccurate information out there, next bullet point, does my hair look OK? Most of what some people call "fake news" isn't so much false reporting as lazy reporting. Just look at the substandard editing in major big-name newspapers (even WSJ, NYT) and you will see that journalism in America is dead. Pity.

says the dude whose avatar is making an obscene gesture...

Watching the Bills choke on almost every primetime game the last 15 years could have something to do with it... But yeah, I'm with you. Its a whole new era so to speak. Starts with ownership and works its way down. I think 8-8 minimum, likely 9-7 or better and possibly wildcard again.

A summary of my comments in other threads: Rosen is a talented QB who may well outshine Allen coming out the gate. However he is not a franchise QB. I predict he will be highly successful on the field but routinely crap on his teammates, coaches, and management. He will change teams often and end up leaving the NFL to do color commentary for ESPN and/or run for political office, probably in California. I give him 5 years in the NFL. He'll leave on his own terms, and forever say "I could have been the GOAT, if NFL football were not beneath my dignity."

tks Defense. I've been on the Allen train since BEFORE the pick (that could well go on my profile some day) but with a questionable O-line and possibly losing our HOF level RB do not be surprised if he struggles coming out the gate. I am fully prepared for Rosen to outshine Allen this year assuming they both play. But as McBeane continue to build a playoff team Allen will eventually emerge as the best QB of his class. As for Rosen, I predict he will be highly successful on the field, will routinely ^%^* on his teammates, coaches, and management, will change teams annually, and end up leaving the NFL to do color commentary for ESPN and/or run for political office in about 5 years.

I honestly don't care what private schools do, but public schools already spend too much taxpayer money being the NFL's farm teams. The NFL should fund its own farm teams, like baseball.

free tuition, room/board, big man on campus status, oh and don't forget the really good ones get a shot at multi-million dollar NFL careers. yeah, lets also give them cash.

Philadelphia PD may beg to differ...
