  1. He flat out quit on his teammates, coaches, and fans. You cannot break the code any more blatantly than that. I don’t care now talented a player is, but if he’s got that level of quit in him, especially when you’re vying for a playoff spot, then it just doesn’t matter. That said, I’m sure there’s a coach out there thinking he can rehabilitate AB and cure him of all that ails him. He can have him.
  2. From what I gather from some around here, Josh Allen is just wasting his time.
  3. The leading contributor to fixing a lower completion percentage, assuming no drastic problems with mechanics, is experience. As QBs gain experience and knowing where to go with the ball becomes routine, then completion percentage goes up. Simple as that. And that’s Allen’s biggest issue at the moment; experience. But he’s on an upward trajectory as we’ve seen amd there’s no reason to doubt it will continue to improve. Not for nothing, but that answer he gave to Romo about knowing what defenses AREN’T trying to do spoke volumes about his ability to improve mentally.
  4. Great call on Jack Ramsey. I’m embarrassed to say I forgot about him. I agree, take Punch Imlach off the mountain and put Ramsey on there instead.
  5. Lots of team related statistical outcomes placed solely on Allen here. And per the bold text, AGAIN, Allen’s growth is also the most stunted compared to his peers. Has Allen ever shown any passing skill? Ever?
  6. Willing to? Botterill already has. Those three will either hit next season or he’s gone. Simple as that. Personally, I doubt he will last the entire season.
  7. Precisely. Which is what makes Allen’s ascension all the more amazing. And he’s still early on in his learning phase to boot.
  8. And I applaud the effort. The offer was generous, but Jack has arrived and whoever gets the best player in a trade wins. Since Jack is the best player, it’s better to just keep him.
  9. Jerry Butler was so good. Just a damned shame he got hurt and had his career cut short.
  10. That’s really the ONLY answer at this point.
  11. The Monday morning quarterbacking on this pandemic will be unbearable. Baseless, useless, and perhaps even dangerous.
  12. People like me? That’s rich. But by all means, show me where I’ve dismissed any optimism by a scientist or doctor in this or any other thread. I’ll wait.
  13. We’ve taken science denial into a whole new realm when we not only deny it, but we also know more than the experts in any field of study or discipline. Acquiring knowledge and refined expertise to levels that used to require years to obtain can now be had in hours simply by watching a YouTube video or listening to our preferred news sources. Voila! Just like that.
  14. Being prepared for a worst case scenario is a hard fail? After the overrun health care systems we saw in Europe and China earlier on?
  15. Competition? I certainly hope not as that is beyond stupid. But when I hear references to the Hong Kong flu pandemic and how it killed 100,000 Americans, but we never shut things down, etc., I suspect some people are reaching for a false equivalency and seek to downplay the current situation.
  16. The Hong Kong pandemic lasted over a year. We’ve counted nearly as many deaths in just a few months and will most likely experience a second wave in the fall as well.
  17. Craig Bohl, QB whisperer. Say it with me! Craig Bohl has never been known as an some offensive minded savant . Indeed, his bio indicates strong experience on the D side; both as a player and coach. The ONLY reason he “produced” Wentz and Allen is because they both possess freakish physical traits that couldn’t be ignored by the NFL scouts. The point is college stats aren’t a reliable indicator of NFL success, regardless. But they come in handy when pushing an agenda.
  18. That classic route tree is known by most high school receivers and I’m sure Davis is more than familiar with it. The challenge lies in understanding route concepts in conjunction with various coverage schemes and combinations. Fortunately, we have three veteran receivers who have a good understanding of that and a QB entering his third year in the scheme. If Davis has a high aptitude, he should be ok in that surrounding.
  19. Prior to his last season starting? That explains it. NFL scouts don’t start the process in earnest until August and won’t have a preliminary book on most prospects until the Senior Bowl at the earliest. Even later for juniors who declare, like Fromm, who won’t be issued a preliminary grade until after the combine. I’m sure there was no shortage of talking head pundits, draftniks, and other wannabe scouts who took everything Fromm did his first two years and made projections based on that last summer, but that’s just not real world, brass tacks talent evaluation.
  20. Jake Fromm was never considered a day one prospect. Ever. As per the bold text, this defies all scouting logic.
  21. Good examples of the difference between quarterbacks and passers.
  22. I can find dozens with better college stats who never made it to the NFL, let alone became a top seven pick, let alone started 27 of their first 28 games in the NFL. All with precious little refined experience at the position to boot.
