  1. The performance thus far is encouraging, but it's something we've seen many times before. The monkey on the back of this team throughout their history is how they handle adversity. From our 4 SB's, to the Music City Miracle, to the Willie Parker coming out show, the Monday Night Meltdown, 5-2 to 6-10, etc. The pre-season by design caters to the opposite of that. I want to know if McDermott has developed better football instincts for adjusting gameplans at half time, when to challenge, punt vs go, etc. Can Allen be the first guy in 25+ years that we can expect to win us the game with a minute left at his own 20? Do we have the heart on this defensive group to steal games away in the final moments? Will anyone on this team stand up and become one of the most feared at their position? I don't think you can answer any of those things in pre-season and I think it's the biggest thing that separates teams that regularly run deep into the season and those that finish 6-10 to 9-7. Unrelated: Christian Wade has to make this team right?
  2. At this point I really don't think there's any reason to believe it's better than Manuel/Orton. I knowa lot of people are assuming that Allen will be here for 15 years, v and I hope he is, but he really have done a thing to earn that yet. If you redrafted today, he'd probably be the 4th QB taken.
  3. Not the reason any of that happened, but 100% of the reason he isn't signed. If you followed the stock market, you'd see that. This country lost A trillion dollars because of a tweet this week.
  4. Outside of Zay Jones I don't think there's a cut they would make that would qualify as surprising. No real tenured vets. No high draft picks on the bubble outside of Shaq. This team is mostly a bunch of replacement level players at this point. They could cut any of them or none of them and it wouldn't shock me either way
  5. No, he'd still be a starting qb if this country wasn't overrun with closeted and open racists who get sad pants when someone said this country has problems. Of and something about troops or whatever.
  6. Wins games, throw TDs, doesn't throw ints, and lead his team to back to back NFC championship games and a superbowl appearance. Shall I go on? Jackson can't even throw a football and Tenn has been a dumpster fire ever since he got there. The guy who benched him for gabbert was pretty immediately laughed out of the league too. I wouldn't use that as your shining example.
  7. Do you think Lamar Jackson or Marcus Mariota are starting NFL QBs? He wipes the floor with both of them. Btw, blasting all-caps doesn't validate your point. It just makes you look like a jim that can't use the internet.
  8. If he stepped on a field today he'd be one of the top 35 QBs in the league - minimum. Your take is utterly ridiculous and hides an obvious agenda
  9. Clemson and Alabama, no one else matters. You can write those both in permanent marker for at least the next 2 years as well.
  10. I think he'll be #2 behind Mayfield.
  11. Cutler was at least 3 tiers down from Favre. He was a good overall QB that sometimes played great, but that you could always count on to inevitably choke.
  12. When josh was drafted I made Upside projections to Cutler ->Elway. I definitely thing he's cut from that mold. but he's still got a long way to go to get to Cutler level. Right now, he's probably closest to Josh Freeman.
  13. What about whiskey? You still have to fight the lines. I think it's more of a problem that it's not, because people overdo it outside.
  14. Not allowing a QB to be himself is exactly how the franchise ruined whatever potential Losman and Taylor had.
  15. I only saw his last drive, but he looked pretty good to me, and I don't like the kid.
  16. He certainly isn't living up to his likeness.
  17. That's fine. he has plenty of time. If careers were written by rookie training camp, we wouldn't have quite a few HOFers.
  18. because he scored 33 TDs over 2 years in a major conference with no experience as a WR?
  19. You can always have another baby. There will never be another Peyton Manning.
  20. ya know, nine eleven tavern is on the way to Orchard Park
  21. Do you typically hear about 5th round picks a couple weeks into training camp? Most likely he'll play special teams for a couple years and be out of the league like 90% of 5th round picks, and there's nothing wrong with having him fill that role. anything more is a massive bonus.
