    If you think that the last 5 months have completely transformed him, we don’t agree. I don’t even believe that the Bills conditioning program is better than. Alabama’s. 

     

    I'm beginning to think we may just never agree on this topic ;)

     

    Yes I believe 6 months of practicing against other NFL players day in and day out have prepared him better than a bunch of guys playing against other college players all year long. And he wasn't elite today, he made plenty of rookie mistakes. He also had 4 other NFL players next to him. They are not even comparable situations to what the Alabama o-line has been doing.

    Our OL took a massive step forward today. They started a 5th round pick 6 months out of college. 

     

    Yep and that 6 months of experience and NFL conditioning was invaluable. Now take 5 guys, even really good NFL prospects, with zero NFL conditioning and put them next to each other tomorrow. They would be erased by any NFL defensive line.

    It's one good game in an otherwise pretty poor NFL career , against a team that seems much worse than the Bills.

     

    Sure but he's only started a total of 6 games in his career, all in 2016. Since this year is meaningless what's the harm in giving him another game and seeing if he is for real? Worst case scenario he sucks and we start Allen the following week. I like Allen but no one is anointing him as the guy yet. We might as well see what we have in Barkley while we can IMO.

    LOL The DB was in way better position and somehow misplayed the ball so badly he let the receiver catch it instead.

     

    Nope that's just how defenses have to play now. You can't touch the receiver before the ball gets there. It is immensely more difficult to defend a pass in the modern NFL - that's why a receiver like Tyreek Hill is blowing up the league instead of ending up on IR. Peterman could have been the beneficiary of these rules but he sucks.

    Foster!! 

     

    just about every recent move McBeane made is paying off today. 

     

    Teller, Foster, McKenzie, Barkley

     

    $50 million is being spent on players no longer on the team. Let's give them some credit for building a working offense out of scraps. Even though it took a little longer than I would have liked.
