Injured and on the mend, but was having a productive season before that.

It doesn’t if he’s going to have it repaired which is almost guaranteed

Maybe this year normally it wouldn’t have that much of an effect

I’m pretty sure it doesn’t matter they will have to graft another one and remove the damaged ligament either way

I am thankful for Josh Allen as long as he is QB there is championship potential

Outside Allen he is the only guy on offense w elite physical tools If he continues developing watch out

I walked off both my ACLs in fact the second one I kept playing for 10mins until the swelling got too bad

The ‘kook aid drinkers’?

Let’s see that ticket then

When Allen hits the top of his drop (I think that’s Moss) is barely at the LOS…I don’t see 7 easy yards there.A checkdown there imo gets 3 yards and then we punt.

There were no shorter options that would have gotten them into field goal range. A punt would have been a marginally better outcome.

Just re: the line being good enough at run blocking- to be frank they weren't any good at it last year either. If you exclude Allen's 2020 rushing yards, which I think is fair, the Bills finished dead last in total rush yards and very near the bottom in terms of YPA. For context, removing Lamar Jackson's rush yards from the Raven's total still locks them in at 9th best in the league. They were a decent unit in pass pro last year, imo made to look significantly better by Allen's ability to avoid pressure and extend plays. But they have been very poor at run blocking for the better part of two years now.

lmao I didn't even read the OP wtf even is this

Possibly. I think Allen would have succeeded in about 30/32 other franchises, personally. I don't know that I'd say the same for McDermott and Beane without him. That's why they had to move up to get him, which is to their credit. But to act like few wanted him is revisionist...for a while he was being talked about going #1 overall.

My comment was less a knock on Beane or McDermott than it was to illustrate Allen’s importance to the franchise.

I think Beane and McDermott both owe their extensions to Allen tbh. Without him standing on his head the past year and a half this is a sub-.500 team under their management the last 4 seasons, and they're likely both looking for their next team at the end of this year.

I'm not sure Palmer has seen tape of the INT he's referring to. If he had he would have known that was the design...empty shotgun set and a seven step drop lol. It's either a first down, incomplete, or an INT which is not much worse than a bad punt. The two checkdowns were each run short of the line of scrimmage and would have lost yards most likely.

You think Taysom Hill is exactly the kind of player that the Bills defense will struggle against?

It’s part of his game that needs some work He’s still pretty green

Don’t worry until it hits 7 any time the line crosses 3 or 7 something is up

Simply wrong.

Good thread, but you neglected the very important hydration component as it relates to sideline personnel. I have it on good authority that the Bills water dispensing program is rife with nepotism when it comes to their hydration specialists…is the team’s performance suffering as a result of this oversight? Need more eyes on this imo.

He has been. This is not a low-effort play:

How do you feel about the Titans?

There’s a decent amount of room between panicking and making excuses and imo this strikes a nice balance.
