Yep. All that. Plus Josh could have certainly played better in the first half. it is perfectly OK to think that the kid will be our QB for the next decade or so as I do, plus be able to objectively say he could have played better Saturday. Not just that he missed a couple passes (and not the ones to Know; those were difficult throws), but that Belichick did to him what he does to young QBs; confused him. Josh needs to continue to improve on reads, especially pre-snap, so he can get the ball out quicker. He's done that better in many games this year, but those teams don't have Belichick calling defenses.

Guess you forgot the AFL?

Other than Schoebel being insulted to be compared to Denney, I'd agree with the positions. I think the WR, RT and DE can be pursued both in Fa and the draft. Rt more though the draft, as O linemen are at a premium in the NFL so teams tend to hold on to guys that are the caliber we'd look for. A big RB you can find in lower rounds in the draft. I would want an exhaustive opinion from the medical staff before going there. The guy is older and prone to injury.

Every year people say the schedule will be tough. Every year certain supposed good teams fail and vice versa. To put it another way, how many fans of other teams looked at the Bills as an easy win this year?

Is There a Chance McD Threw the Game Yesterday?

I would love to see McD’s reaction if someone said this to him. -

Regarding the D, maybe we were trying to not show all our cards, but how do you not defend Edelman better? Why was he not doubled? Why not get right up on him at the LOS and knock him off his route? -
Resign Lawson. He’s the modern Phil Hansen. Let Murphy and Hughes go. Sign a better pass rushing guy in free agency and use the rookie Johnson as a pass rusher.

Josh Allen - week SIXTEEN report card
oldmanfan replied to rayray808's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
B-. The two throws to Know were not as easy as some here believe; I will go with Kurt Warner's opinion over anyone here. But at least one should have been a TD. He had trouble reading the defense; and Belichick is who he is by doing just that to QBs, especially young QBs. But then you have him doing what he does in the fourth and almost pulling it out. He's still a work in progress, as is any second year guy. Still needs to work on pre-snap reads especially against defenses as complex as a Belichick one. Missed a couple throws he should have had, made some throws most QBs can't make. And at least shut those up complaining about not being able to complete the long ball. -

Agree for the most part. I felt our play calling on both sides of the ball was overly conservative, and coming from an old school guy that likes conservative football that is tough to say. And we got beaten physically on both sides of the lines, with very poor tackling by the defense in addition to that. Bottom line is Brady is Brady, and Belichick is Belichick. The two best ever at what they do. Brady can read what our D wants to do very quickly and get to the right play. Belichick can take away what offenses want to do and make life miserable for young QBs. They did what they do yesterday, and that's why they've won the division for what seems like forever. But we're close now, and it's going to turn soon. -

One of the brethren here who fancies himself a QB expert would have traded an entire draft for Winston. I don't think I’d give them a 7th round pick right now -
