    Is "faith" a requirement under McD?

    in The Stadium Wall Archives

    Posted

    Whoa this thread is Deep..*adjusts my waders**  to bottom line answer the OP's original post I do not think faith in Jesus the son, Holy Spirit and the Father is the type of "faith" Mr McDermott covets....If there were Buddhists, Hindus, Jews, The Latter Day Saints, any other faith practice that promotes in a person  good character, good work ethic, men of conviction and high standards,  to have a broad Team focus and not just all about himself...Those are the guys along with great athletic talent belong in the NFL and whom you want on your team and whom imo McDermott covets.  The faith practice is irrelevant its the CONTENT of the persons skills and buying into the Bills Process and vision for success aka NFL Championships is what I think matters to him most.

    GM debunked this and said absolutely Josh Rosen was considered 

     

    Have they. There was a source reporting the Allen pick since Late Feb. 

     

    maybe now that Brandon is Gone all the leaks have been eliminated. 

    which QB wasn't rumored to be at top of Bills draft board...it was a smorgasbord pick your sourced rumor of whom the Bills would take Ridiculous amount of smoke this past pre draft.....SMH

    Annoyed at the negativity

    I don't think your looking at the full picture.. and there are just as many positive judgements on this draft as negative so look at all the draft grades not just the few negative, few positives or in between. There is plenty of positive grades. double edged sword isn't it.. Lets just see how he comes out at end :D

    and there you go. lol thanks for proving my original post true!

    Go ahead and slam me for saying witch instead of which or small me for saying no instead of know.. I think you need to get over yourself .. and these replies.. these posts.. that you just said.. is EXACTLY what I am saying. Your living in the past and its your choice.. don't make it my choice..

    lol sotier hasn't a clue as to just how textbook a case he made...for YOU ...lol WOW smh

    If he’s clearly the best QB in camp and pre-season then he should start week 1. Saying he should sit until we get better weapons around him is something I don’t agree with. The best players should play and I’ll keep repeating that.

    I wouldn't call an adequate offensive line a "weapon" it's more armor but I'm  not going to quibble I know what you meant.....and I truly hope the new offensive line will Gel and protect whomever is back there...But it is a Big question mark to me  right now.....the thing is we don't really know what we ultimately have with ANY of the Qb's on the roster OR the line now either for that matter...this roster will still be  churning  until after  the June cuts... moving forward McCarron starting the season just seems to make more sense to me as he is supposedly the 'Bridge"..maybe HE's the Franchise guy and Then the Bills have a GREAT Problem to have haha instead of no proven QB's we have one and decent backup with Peterman, or HE shines this year.... and as far as Josh Allen is concerned  I  hope he has indeed fixed with Mr Palmers help issues with footwork and accuracy going into the season...It's exciting times a head :-D

    I'm only saying that if he's clearly playing better in camp and preseason than the other two quarterbacks, you can't keep him on the bench, even if you would like to do so in an ideal world. Like coach McDermott said: "It wouldn't be fair to the other 52 guys".

    All of that being said, the best possible scenario, in my opinion, would be McCarron or Peterman playing so well and winning enough games that Allen can't even get onto the field. That would be fantastic. But what if the Bills get off to a 2-5 start and the season looks lost? Wouldn't you rather get Allen live game reps than plod along to 4-12 behind AJ or Nate? 

    The other thing that I always think: Aside from Aaron Rodgers, who was the last quarterback who sat a full season and went on to be good? I can't think of anybody. Sometimes, guys don't learn from the bench as well as they learn from live bullets flying.

     hahaha well Mr Logic that is the rub....I personally think that whichever QB wins the training camp competition will be the starter until/unless  there is an injury or absolutely dismal performance and then that guy may be pulled for the #2 and that guy is also trial by fire....we really have hardly any real time NFL game data on which to judge either AJ McCarron OR Peterman...(mulligan for that charger debacle Joey Bosa saying "They never blocked me" SMH anyway we don't know how any of them will perform in this new offensive scheme moving forward May the Best QB win  and stay healthy and succeed. we all want THAT. But to answer the question in red I do hate losing. but I'd hate also our rookie hope to be future franchise QB going in and it is disastrous due to he not being ready or the offensive line woefully inadequate...maybe he needs those flying bullets to progress and improve in his game but I Do NOT want another Andrew Luck situation on our hands.

    Let’s sit Shady this year while we are at until we make sure we have good guys blocking in front of him. 

     

    Give me a break with this nonsense

    Shady an experienced veteran vs a rookie QB from small school Wyoming in not a great analogy .. trust me I'd be thrilled if Allen completely beats out his 'Bridge" QB to become a starter in 2018 and subsequently succeeds.,...If he shows readiness and beats out the competition so be it.....could it be a disaster as what occurred with Nathan Peterman just last year throwing him in unprepared and not ready and what was an inferior offensive line Last year.....  And maybe that game  has given me doubts about throwing a rookie into soon.... just a thought....

    I think there's a pretty decent chance that Chris Simms had it right: Come training camp, Bills players and coaches and fans are going to see Josh Allen thrown 10 passes, and then see McCarron and Peterman throw 10 passes, and realize how superior Allen's arm strength and physical talent. Now, obviously there is more to playing QB in the NFL than having a big arm and physical talent, but it won't exactly be shocking if Josh Allen so significantly out-throws the other two guys that he winds up winning the job.

    Remember, too: As much as everyone says Allen is a project, the system he played in at Wyoming was closer to NFL offense than any of the other top prospects from this year. 48% of snaps from under center, advanced route concepts, RPOs, you name it. The same system that Wentz ran in college. Oh, and he has that 37 Wonderlic score. People shouldn't be that shocked if he wins the job. If not by week 1, then certainly by week 6 or 7.

    well now....by this narrative Mr Allen would be brought in by game 6-7....which infers to me failure of likely AJ McCarron/Nathan Peterman...whomever is starter, so Josh Allen somehow is offered the starting job......wouldn't it matter WHY the other QBs failed and would they be throwing him to the wolves...I doubt highly Mr Allen will be a starter in 2018  I don't care how many losses the other 2 rack up tbh... if the line doesn't hold up do not I repeat DO NOT put him in there to be killed...just sayin.....2019 will be the optimal year in my opinion. ....

    Middle linebacker because they are key to both the running game and the passing game. And they can pass rush also (Like LT did pretty often).

     

    DE is very important, but to me they are not as  big a help against the run game.

     and my understanding also is the middle linebacker is the qb of the defense. calls formations and plays that position is hugely important. Interesting thread.  I tend to think of how to answer this by seeing the players whom were the very best at that position and what impact they had in games.... Me personally I think the template is Bruce Smith DE and then a guy like Polamalu as stated previously as a linebacker..very convincing arguments for both sides there....I choose DE myself jmho.

    My guess is we'll get a Thursday game

    me personally I wish Thursday night games were not on the schedule yes it is nationally televised in prime time which the NFL loves ...I might just have bad flashbacks from last years Thursday night debacle against the jets..one of the UGLIEST games Ive seen the Bills play....man that was BAD.....I hope they DONT schedule the Bills on Thursday ever again actually.

    Have You Ever Gotten Into A Fight Defending The Bills?

    well i'm no shrinking violet  and twice that I recall I know for a Fact that hubby was  THIS CLOSE to having to defend my honor when I would unabashedly SCORN bad calls against the Bills and yes even be prone to rubbing AFC East opponents noses in it if their team made a bad play or choked in some regard... it was more young and dumb than anything...My Favorite was taunting the fish fans in my Bills colors at a Monday night Football game here in San Diego against the stinkin Fish Years ago.... true story there was a bedsheet

    painted with "Bryan Cox  You are Wanted In Buffalo" it was during that era....I was in rare form that night along with all the other proud Bills fans in attendance LOL

    They say Vitamin D is good for seratonin levels and helps increase energy. Also, try getting an hour or two of sunlight each day. 

    You forgot Exercise  I hear that helps too TCK.

     

    lol 

     

    I think. OP has some really good points just sayin'.....and to the boxed quote  I'll  make this plain: Cordy Glenn GONE Eric Wood GONE Richie  yep he's gone too. And that leaves the bills offensive line staffed currently with whom exactly?  I trust the process  but these are some trying times until we see how this all plays out. 

     

    I feel bad for AJ McCarron. He is getting a raw deal before starting.

    Are We Losing The Off-Season?

    BLM the Bills to sum it up have neither won nor lost the offseason yet imo the Draft will be a major determining factor  but dang we have clearly taken some good hits  and  I do NOT think McBeane saw this richie situation happening...at all. It's like a forearm shiver the team didnt need blech :-(

    Love that it appears we have a strategy...

    The hiring of Rex killed Whaley. Whaley will get a 2nd chance like Rick Speilman and he'll do a great job with his new team.  

     as director of pro personnel YES but general manager again..I'm not so sure...I think he should stay in his lane what he excels in best arguably imho is as a scout./talent evaluator.  :huh:
