  1. I’m surprised it’s that low for each game
  2. Whatever. They pick on the one overthrow to Brown to bring up the tired inaccuracy stuff and ignore the rest of his play. I’m sure they do the same to overrate and underrate other guys.
  3. Yep. He put it out there to, again, critique guys like you that harp on the percentage as well as anything else that could potentially justify negativity. You don’t like having your own words used against you.
  4. The point is you can’t cherry pick stats and look credible. Josh Allen is improving, quite a bit actually. But being familiar with his fan club here you should know that any negative stats associated with the kid (the horrid comp%, the ttr, and all the missed reads, etc from the first season) are ignored or explained away. Your words, not mine. Note you mention his “horrid comp%”.
  5. Yes. He started it to critique those like you who made it a big deal the entire off season.
  6. Good for them. Now let’s be sure no one else thinks of signing him.
  7. The O line. Bringing in so many FAs when so many other teams are struggling up front was an excellent move by Beane.
  8. I recall the Winston/Mariotta draft. Was back in the BBMB days. Folks there talked about them each being can’t miss; one guy in particular would have traded an entire draft for Winston. And look what we have now.
  9. We all need to stop parsing every single pass and every single catch as if they provide definitive proof of something. Allen put that throw away from the defender where only Jones could get it. Jones made a great diving effort to get it and just missed. Neither did anything wrong.
  10. Very funny but I can understand. I can remember back in the late 60’s-early 70’s going into a season knowing we had no chance.
  11. I doubt it. Doesn’t fit what we’re doing. And he’s not that good.
  12. The Electric Company fat exceeds the current group at this point. Let’s see the present group play together more and gel a bit. The Company was phenomenal.
  13. A chance? Sure. But you have to strongly favor the Pats.
  14. They all get an incomplete grade from me in terms of just how good they'll be. I think Allen is progressing as is Jackson. They have the benefit of more table coaching regimes around them, and they each have decent O lines in front of them with some decent receivers. Mayfield and Darnold should be OK. Mayfield will suffer from having a completely inexperienced HC and a very suspect O line, plus a man child at WR who despite being very talented would rather draw attention to himself wearing $100,000 watches to play football. Darnold's O line is suspect, he just lost a key WR, and his HC is a basket case. And you just have to feel sorry for Rosen. I think Allen, Jackson, Darnold, and Mayfield will have long careers, maybe not elite but long. I think Rosen may say the hell with football after this season.
  15. Culture or process aren’t important. Josh has a good game but this throw should have been picked or that throw was bad and on and on and on...... The terms homer, Kool Aid drinker
  16. And they scored that drive anyway. Allen also doesn't need purported fans tying to tear his jock off, picking on every single throw as if it is be all and end all of his career and focusing on just the negative because it matches a pre-conceived narrative that he' never make it in the league. He's a young second year QB that's improving. Good for him. Odds are he'll have some struggles this eyar too. As young QBs do. He's not an All Pro based on yesterday because he played well, and he won't be a bust if and when he has a tough game. HE is a young developing QB that appears to have a pretty good future.
  17. Come on now. Transplant is justhaving some fun with those who kept harping on the 60% completion rate as if were the Holy Grail. The kid is doing just fine. And he’ll miss some throws. So will Brady.
  18. I’m waiting for the post that says he has to be over 70%
  19. There are people here who would rather see the team lose or an individual player fail so they can say I told you so in an anonymous chat room. Strange but true.
  20. You’re allowed. You look like a spoiled brat for doing so but you’re allowed.
  21. Except Gore didn’t touch anyone. Great block by Morse.
  22. Every successful organization has a successful culture. To suggest otherwise is fantasy.
