Let’s talk about this Drake “marvelous “ Maye 😅
Buffalo716 replied to Italian Bills's topic in The Stadium Wall
That's literally an opinion and not a fact tho I'm 100% certain he's not hiring bums and putting his job on the line just to do it... Of course he wants the best coordinators Andy Reid is not walking through the door to call plays... Joe Brady is not taking an offense with a bunch of pro bowlers at skill positions and making them lethargic No I'm not saying Joe Brady's a top five offensive coordinator but he's absolutely not a bottom five... We're doing all this without our best pass catching threat in Kincaid and Pittsburgh knew what we were going to do and still couldn't stop it.. that's execution which comes from coaching -

I'm still not 100% sold that Mike vrable is a better Coach than Sean McDermott He's a player's coach and has players playing hard right now... With an infinitely healthier roster McDaniels yes I would take him as a millisecond as a offensive coordinator because he's always been considered one of the best in the world But I still think Sean McDermott is going to out coach the Patriots in 2 weeks and I think Sean is severely underrated around here He's not taking rosters with seven pro bowlers every single year and underperforming... He always maximized players and develops at a insanely high rate Even our pro bowl guys were late round picks or castaways or good players he helped make great like Hyde... Tre White was our pro bowler who we took 27th first round... And his entire prime was derailed by injuries Poyer was a browns castaway.. hyde was a solid jack of all trades but not elite in GB... Milano was a late round pick ... McDermott got these guys paid and turned them into household names and all pros -

With the way the AFC is so wide open.. realistically anybody can do it .. no team is Head and shoulders better in the AFC or NFC than anybody.. even Los Angeles and Philadelphia have their own issues If the Patriots had Josh Allen I would say they would 100% be Super bowl favorites so I think the roster is good enough to win with the top-tier quarterback I would not say they are Super bowl favorites this year with the second year Drake May who has never been in the playoffs yet.. If we flip-flopped Allen for Drake Maye.. Patriots are still 11 and 2 if not better and the Buffalo Bills are not 8-5 imo It's not like if we had Drake Maye the bills are 11 and 2... We have 9 years of McDermott on tape.. there's less than 13 games of this Patriots team of tape.. sometimes it takes a little bit for NFL defenses to understand how to attack a new upstart offense that's playing well There in a stage where the league has not caught up yet but they always do eventually -
Dude he's not just magically going to turn it on lol I had some hopes for him but he's literally a walking turnover when you target him.. Look at Josh Allen's passer rating targeting him... He's not a friendly qb Target anymore I don't think it's magically turning on

Think people are underestimating the talent on their roster they have a better defensive cast and better wide receivers than the Buffalo Bills.. the bills just have a better offensive line and James Cook .. getting Dalton Kincaid back is going to change the Buffalo Bills offense Not throwing the quarterback in there Sure they have cap space but that means they have to also get the right guys.. it doesn't always work out sometimes you pick the wrong ones I don't believe this is a 5 win talented team that Drake Maye is propping up.. jarod Mayo was severely over his head last year.. it is a good football team I watched Blake bortles throw for 4,000 yards and 35 touchdowns which would have been Buffalo Bills records at the time and he was a top pick who was big and strong and mobile.. the arrow's not always up for everyone when they have a great year... even if Drake Maye is fantastic and will probably be a really good quarterback.. doesn't mean he's guaranteed to be top three to become a top three All pro you're going to have to knock out the current all pros... Josh is knocking out 40 touchdowns a year and he still has people doubt him Odell Beckham was getting called the next Jerry Rice and he's not sniffing the Hall of Fame.. there's a lot of ebbs and flows to football even with a supremely talented guy like maye Even with Josh breaking NFL records left and right he still goes through Lulls... Drake Maye is going to experience the same How he bounces back will tell everything The way some people talk about him rn you would think he's a guaranteed four time first team All pro though -

Mac Jones threw for 3,800 yards as a rookie and like 68% completion Now obviously Maye has more physical talent I don't believe your offense is without weapons... you have better wide receivers than the Buffalo Bills .. you literally have guys running way more open than the bills have for 12 games I think Drake Maye is in a great system and is playing with a lot of confidence so he is looking very very good and is a really good quarterback I have just been coaching and playing an scouting long enough that I don't crown anybody after two seasons Patrick mahomes came out of the gate throwing 45-50 touchdowns and will never reach that high again.. he's actually regressed slightly Not always Straight arrow up.. but yes I think Drake Maye is very talented I got to watch him in high school I thought he had pro bowl plus potential.. but he had to clean up some things.. he had a little hitch in his delivery it was a little long Nobody doubted his ability to throw the football.. but it takes a lot more than just the ability to spin it to be a consistent top three or five quarterback in the NFL Nobody has really seen how he will bounce back in the NFL from rough stretches.. but he did have back-to-back rough games in the ACC where he did lose playing with his confidence and swagger against Clemson and North Carolina State .. how he bounces back in the NFL will show a lot -

Maye is very solid again But to think he's never going to go through a bad two or three game stretch in his career is literally not true They were nowhere near a playoff team last year they were not getting playoff caliber game plans.. and it's about to get ramped up to that time Every single quarterback whether it was Tom Brady Peyton Manning Aaron Rodgers or Josh Allen has gone through some lulls Every quarterback is going to hit a slump.. the difference is the all pros bounce back from that slump still at an all pro level while the vast majority do not People like Blake bortles threw 35 touchdowns and 4,000 yards before and never ever came close to that again and he was a number three overall pick with talent too maye is playing light out.. how he bounces back from a rough stretch will show a lot more about his decade-long ceiling He literally has faced very little adversity this year which if you watch football you should know that's not good coming into playoff time.. the bills have seen so much adversity that I'd be willing to bet we match up in the playoffs and Josh Allen will rise above Drake Maye because we're going to have a playoff game plan that he's never seen and adversity will hit He's definitely already put himself in the top 10 but that doesn't mean he's guaranteed to be a top three quarterback sure fire HoF The ebbs and flows to a player's career in the NFL are massive The way New England is playing a good amount of NFL quarterbacks would be looking good with them right now.. it's not like Drake May is taking a non-skilled team and propping them to 10-2.. they are very good and Bought in.. you have wide receivers running open you have solid running backs and a hard hitting defense it's a good team -

Kids definitely talented but let's not act like he's on Pace for 40 touchdowns He's solid.. NFL game plans have not caught up to them and the game planning gets better for the playoffs He's playing with a lot of confidence but people remember Jaden Daniels was considered a superstar rising last year and that fell really fast.. CJ Stroud was supposed to be the next big thing that fell fast Every quarterback is going to hit a slump how you bounce back from it tells a lot more -
Remember last year or two years ago when that family said a Bills fan knocked or pushed there girl over? It got tons of airplay on new stations everywhere And it was never verified from the Buffalo Bills.. or witnesses .. and the eye in the sky never caught it .. Buffalo News never did a story on it Because it probably was slightly fabricated Not saying the girl didn't fall down but a angry drunk Bills fan definitely wasn't shouting obscenities saying he's going to knock over 49er fans like they said just rampaging people The Buffalo News never ran with the story and the Buffalo Bills would be able to catch it with their eye in the sky Maybe this woman dropped the towel? Maybe someone did take it But she doesn't even remember it getting stolen so how could you even blame a Bills fan? What if it was a Steelers fan there without a terrible towel and wanted one Who knows

In my original post I said there was definitely 5+ division 1 football players on the field when I was talking about it with weo Whether FCS or FBS Iwould never say the football talent on the field for that game between both teams was mediocre I've seen them twice this year and I thought they were really good.. not top 25 National but still really good
