Success

Zay has kind of become an underrated player here. He still had a few bad games, but the improvement from year 1 to 2 was huge. I still think he can be a good #2. He’ll benefit more than anyone from the Bills getting a true #1. And we got the most important piece - the franchise QB. We’ll probably keep a few more guys than are listed in the OP for depth, but I expect free agency and the draft to be very focused on O line and WR.

Hate to even post this, but it seems like the Pats are peaking at the right time. There are better teams, but it’s almost unfair how much more postseason experience they have over everyone else at this point. Wake me up when it’s all over...

Your point?

Some Boston outlet listed all of the AFCE coaches who have come and gone in the time of Belicheck. It was pretty ridiculous. Things really have to change.

Honestly, it’s a pretty exciting group of quarterbacks. This class could end up being legendary. i can’t tell if it’s the homer in me, but if I had a choice of any of them, I’d still want the Bills to have Allen. I wouldn’t rank him on top right now, and put Mayfield on top for sure - but Allen just owns some crucial intangibles. He he has that Buffalo toughness, and is a real leader. I think my favorite play today was his diving attempted tackle on the pick 6 - the effort to strip the ball was textbook.

Good to have the stats - but there is so much more to his game. He’s more fun to watch than any QB since Kelly. A true playmaker.

I enjoyed winning today.

Jets are a bad team. Last hurrah for the Pats. If anyone in this division was even competent, they would have struggled to make the playoffs this year. Next year will be a lot tougher.

You’re a Pats fan trolling the Bills board today?

Yep. This is it - though they may win it all this year. Peaking at the perfect time. I’d hate to see it, but don’t care if it’s their last hurrah. It’s time for this division to change hands.

I love Mahomes game. I just think we overplay it when Allen has a bad overthrow. Every QB has those.

I watch a lot of football - you probably do too. I see great QBs throw errant passes all the time. Every game. I think we get too hung up in Allen’s accuracy because it was the main concern for him coming out of college. So, every time a pass sails, it’s like “there it is! Scouts were right.” It just seems so minor to me compared to how he plays the game as a whole. And I just watched Mahomes sail 3 in a row.

Great finale - Allen’s play gives us a lot of hope heading into next season.

It would sicken me to have Edelman in the Bills.

This is the time of year when I simply don’t feel good until someone knocks the Pats out. ABP.

Yep.

Today’s hope is not the usual illusion. After a few decades, we finally have a QB.

Exactly how I feel. He has winner written all over him.

Brady flops and gets the roughing call.

But his scouting reports.

If you would rather get swept by Miami for a higher draft pick, chances are that you weren’t watching football in the ‘80s.

I’m surprised our resident Pats fans haven’t stopped by this thread yet to say how wonderful it is to be them.

Not what I’ve seen. He is hardly all over the place with his throws. A poor receiving corps has hurt the “stats” - lots of drops, and can you point to even one great catch? I judge how guys play - not scouting reports. Allen could easily still be the best overall QB to come out of this draft. We haven’t had a QB like Allen for a very long time. Get the the man just one great receiver.

I do not like him.

Receiver is a position that has a steeper learning curve than most. Rookies can sometimes make a splash, but it usually can take a couple of years before you know what you have. I see a guy who made a huge leap from last year, but is still inconsistent. He will benefit from the Bills adding a true 1 to the roster.
