    1. Tale of box score: Bills 314 total yards. Jets: 289. Wow. Almost even with Zach Wilson at QB.

    3. Jets are now obviously more talented overall other than QB. Rodgers promised to partly close that gap. That won’t happen. But still … more talented overall. 

    The Bills don't have any players on defense with the same level of elite playmaking as the truly elite defenses do. They are a good unit and definitely did enough to win today, but they aren't going to hold up against better teams and QBs the way that the Jets contained us. We don't have the personnel for it. If Beane hadn't have drafted Josh Allen I really think he should be gone by now.

    I'm starting to wonder if Allen is slightly overrated. 

     

    He is a turnover machine, perhaps struggles to read coverages, and can't win an overtime game. 0- 5. 

    He became magical for a stretch where it seemed like every first down you needed you would get. He went toe to toe with Mahomes in the playoffs and had him dead to rights.

     

    There has been a ton of regression since then. That feeling of always being a moment away from a chunk play has passed. It's hard from a fan perspective to identify how much of that is losing Daboll and the scheme, how much is other teams adapting their strategy, and how much of that is simply Josh Allen's personal regression.

     

    My gut at this point is that Allen has some sort of mental issue going on as it relates to performance and confidence. The scheme making things more difficult could certainly be tied in with that, as making his job easier could help him settle in. Also he suffered through some awful line play last year, which can develop some bad habits.

     

    The raw ability is still there, but he's not performing anywhere near his public perception for quite some time now.

    It's funny.  So many folks thought it was Super Bowl or Bust for McD.  Apparently, Terry didn't see it that way.  

     

    I'm personally happy.  After 17 years of hopelessness, we finally have a legitimate shot at the Lombardi with these two.  

     

    You can't win the dance competition without a ticket to the dance.  These guys give us tickets.  

    I'm not particularly negative on McDermott, but Josh Allen is the ticket. Let's not kid ourselves.

     

    Beane hit with him and he's going to be riding that goodwill for a while. It's not easy to take a risk and find a QB. 

  4. Given the lack of injuries here, it's fun to imagine the perspective of the occupants of the car that went flying. That had to be so unexpected and so disorienting to just suddenly be flying through the air as if the laws of physics suddenly stopped applying. I wonder if they even had any idea what had happened prior to an eventual explanation or seeing the footage.

    So was Dan Marino. 

     

    You mentioned Jordan’s Bulls. At this point, Mahomes is Jordan. And Allen is Malone.

    Isn't Dan Marino one of the only QBs in the modern era who was top 5 in his day who didn't win a Superbowl? Most of the other ones eventually seem to get around to it. Jim Kelly as well maybe?

  6. I don't think it's anything other than talent in the trenches and at skill positions. We aren't competitive with the top of the league in either. Josh could probably overcome the deficit at the skill positions with a clean pocket, but we aren't going anywhere with these lines regardless of anything else. 

     

    At some point, drafting a star QB is going to be too far in the rear view mirror to keep justifying the glaring problems with the roster construction. Beane should be on the hot seat right now, let alone McDermott
