I think Darnold was considered the more talented player with more flaws which pushed him to not be the consensus number one Baker Mayfield might not have the size that most teams covet.. but he had a stronger arm than Darnold.. fit in multiple systems better and was basically as good as an athlete Sam was a high ceiling guy who also had to correct stuff while having a pretty good floor... Baker's floor was higher and their ceiling probably not far off Josh if he would have went to the NFL draft the year before could have been the number one pick... A lot happens when you return to school and you get nitpicked even more He needed that extra year in Laramie with all that fire and pressure around him Baker's makeup of walking on it Texas tech and giving up scholarships to a school like Washington State.. and then earning the starting job as a freshman.. then abandoning that and going to Oklahoma where he had the red shirt... And then just ball for years really cemented himself as a guy with a crazy high floor because his work ethic was undoubtable A franchise like the browns if you can get a guy with a fiery personality that the Cleveland natives will love and he's talented that's probably a no-brainer.. Sam darnold is too laid back for the Cleveland franchise -
Kincaid has the third highest yards per route ran in NFL history for a season for a tight end That's crazy to think if you don't think people are going to game plan for him lol He literally was a focal point as a rookie that defensive coordinators would game plan against and he's much better today

You must be so cool! So a Hall of Fame quarterback a hall of fame wide receiver and a hall of fame tight end made two plays lol That's why the games never over... It was three Hall of famers that connected on the two plays And it was sloppy tackling that let them get those yards.. the coaches aren't missing tackles on Tyreek Hill You're also making my point even more.. that game the Chiefs lost two players.. and Gabe Davis looked like Jerry Rice The Buffalo Bills have played the Chiefs without 2-3 starters multiple times and never made an average player look like Jerry Rice They can't handle injuries as good as we can You thought you had a smart quip but it actually is going to bite you back because the Chiefs couldn't handle two injuries lol the bills have never made an average Chiefs player look like Jerry Rice The bills also didn't get the ball in the playoffs and the entire NFL changed the rules because of that.. Josh Allen had to be screwed before they changed the rules

Kincaid has the third most yards per route ran by any tight end in NFL history this year Keeping him healthy is the difference between a Super bowl run and leaving un Happy

I had a friend working with the browns during that draft and he was adamant it was down to Baker and Josh But the question marks were too much to Hitch the first overall pick on them And Baker was a Heisman winning quarterback with a great work ethic and a fiery personality and a high floor Look at Sam darnold now.. he's much better than what the Jets showed because the organization you go to means a lot -
By your standing you think just because they played their backup they would score more than 31 But FYI the dolphins scored more with their backup than their average with tua... Nothing says tua comes in and scores 37 Yet maybe the bills took Skyler Thompson lightly and thought they could just waltz to a victory and then they showed up to a dog fight because it's the NFL playoffs We literally out gained Kansas City in our playoff game last year.. they did not statistically dominate us Sure tua is better than Skyler.. these are also professionals with egos.. maybe they took him slightly for granted.. he was sub 50% completion lol Josh also threw a pick six.. that's a big momentum swing in the playoffs The score was not indicative of the Bills dolphins playoff game .. that is true We outgained the Chiefs last year and had the ball at the end to Win or tie.. versus a team that was at two straight Super bowls before that game They had zero defensive starters on the injury report we had seven fresh injuries including losing Christian Benford and our best safety Elam got abused because he was forced to play.. that's a three-point difference right there

Without a doubt Josh's not only the best quarterback in the class but probably the best in the world The browns were stuck in a situation of do we want to try to develop a kid with great size and athleticism and talent but he needs a lot of reps Versus the ready to play NFL quarterback who has a really high floor Thank God they took the guy who didn't need to learn much... Because watching the bills these last 9 years I will never take for granted -
I was at that game and literally out game them by 200 yards Score was not indicative of the game... They played valiantly with a backup quarterback It still was not indicative of the final score We didn't lose but if we did sure that would make you rethink things.. but we out gain them by 200 yards the score was not indicative of the actual game

Other teams are also putting out their best effort versus us lol the Bengals game is an outlier where we had a player die on the field basically and that could suck a lot of wind out of your sails.. the team was emotionally spent by that playoff game Point stands we went toe to toe with the AFC champions back to back years severely outmanned That's not even questionable.. we had fresh injuries they did not And we played them to field goal games with the ball in our hands at the end of the game That's not getting out coached or out played.. that is right there.. 100% I believe with a healthy team those Chiefs are not beating us In fact we have the same talent level right now and they're six and seven

I think Baker is still very good he has the talent and the work ethic and fire But thank God the Cleveland browns didn't take Josh over him because by all accounts they were down to Baker or Josh Allen -
You need to be dominant for 4 years before you ever get into any true territory of being the best at your position I've seen this way too often at every position Odell Beckham's first 3 years were better than Jerry Rice's and everybody was anointing him Guess what he's not even a Hall of Fame player... There's way too many circumstances to anoint players after one or two good years Blake bortles has a season with 4000 passing yards and 35 touchdowns something Drake May will not have and he's a footnote

Our injured defense has cost us plenty of times And it's not a excuse when you have seven fresh injuries from 6 days before going into Arrowhead lol We're not talking injuries from 9 weeks ago which NFL professionals adjust to We're talking we had seven fresh injuries and we played on a short week .. and lost by three to the AFC champions who had zero defensive starters on the injury report 2 years ago we were so injured we were trotting out AJ Klein at middle linebacker versus the Chiefs where again we lost by three lol Playing replacement level players in a game of inches in a winner-take-all game is truly the difference because we lost by three We did not lose by two touchdowns FYI the Rams are not A step above the rest of the NFL lol that's a team where I can absolutely see the bills winning because they're not going to be able to stop Josh Allen and McDermott is terrific with two weeks to prepare

It was the same thing when Herbert came out He was always compared to Josh because of his size and athleticism... Drake May has been getting this comparison since high school And he is very talented and there are shades of Josh in Drake.. but history doesn't bring clones of people that fast There's only one Josh Allen.. and Drake is not surpassing him anytime soon despite his natural talent
