Allen is a budding superstar
Mat68 replied to Victory Formation's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I cannot remember a time where a Bills Qb without much help on his side of ball put his team on his back and won a game going away vs a top 10 team. Without some drops and bobbles Allen has 3 or 4 passing TDs. Still early but doing that to Minnesota means they can beat anyone. Rodgers is great but Minnesota is a much better team than GB. Good defense and Allen making a handful of plays will result in W's. -
Catching balls 30 to 40 yards in the air is a skill alot of wrs dont have. They need to find Allen a guy who can get down the feild and track the ball. That takes him and the offense to another level.

Opposing defenses will adjust to Allen going forward
Mat68 replied to TigerJ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
His athletic ability makes defending him a problem. He looks like a more athletic young Roethlisberger. Most likely blitz and have him make quick decisions. The ability to recognize the blitz and attack it will be Allen next step. He does that we found ourselves our Qb for 15 years. -
Week 4: Packers Game Preparation - Inactives Announced

2-2 after the first two weeks would feel like 4-0. -
Steelers listening to trade offers for Leveon Bell
Mat68 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
A 3rd and shady. 3 years 45 mil. 40 guaranteed takes it down. Out of the backfeild and between the tackles he is the best in the business. All the cap space the next few years and Allen on his rookie deal, makes Buffalo a realistic player for him. -
I'm glad to see Allen playing well. I have been high on him since the end of last season. His performance today was why I was so against starting Peterman and continuing the competition. Allen clearly pulled even at Cleveland. That's a precious 3 weeks Buffalo's offense will never be able to get back this year. A good defensive effort some big plays by Allen is the receipe for success this year.

Week 4: Packers Game Preparation - Inactives Announced
Mat68 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Green Bay is a winnable game. The defense is not special, their offense is predictable and simplistic. Get pressure on Rodgers and keep him from extending plays Buffalo should be in it to the end. Glad to see the team rebound and beginning to rally around Allen. -
Brandon Bean failed to provide Josh Allen a mentor
Mat68 replied to GrizzReaper's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The real problem Buffalo had. They didn't just own the fact Allen was the most talented Qb on field at the very first practice. The offense and receivers should have been given training camp and preseason to learn Allen's strengths and weakness and how to take advantage of both. By given him the least amount of reps with the first team and then going to him after 2 quarters of real football creates a level of distrust for the direction of the franchise. The defense has played uninspired until Allen got in their faces. The fact it took a rookie in first start to get that out of them is impressive and startlingly. -
Shaq Lawson - Part of the problem, or a piece of the puzzle?
Mat68 replied to KOKO NFL's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He is here because no one has offered much for him imo. -
It's very difficult to find a scenario where that has been successful in the past 10 years. In most cases you are better off drafting the better player.

Heard that a comp for Oliver is an in shape Warren Sapp. Start from the inside out. Good safety play. Edmunds in the middle and put a beast in front of him.
-
Oliver. He is going to be special. Sure up the middle of the defense.

Preston Brown "There's some weird stuff going on up there."
Mat68 replied to zow2's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed, but everything around them is faltering. McDermott is a defensive guy. That unit has been putrid. The Peterman decision, the McCarron decision looks terrible. McDermott needs to bust out some tape and super glue to keep the boat a float or he may go down with it. -
Preston Brown "There's some weird stuff going on up there."
Mat68 replied to zow2's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I expected the year to be a tough one. I thought McDermott would have a competitive team though. The team needs to make a major change in effort and performance or McDermott will be on a short list of coaches that could be fired. If Allen shows poise and fire in these games, Buffalo could have a top 5 pick. A franchise Qb, a freak Mike with 100 mil in cap space. That's near perfect to takeover as any. Look at LA with Goeff, Chicago with Trubisky. Defensive minded head coaches who fumbled the grooming of the young Qb. -
The Bills First Offensive Play on Sunday Will Be...

Deep pass. Take off some steam and stress. -
How Safe Are Coach McDermott and GM Beane?
Mat68 replied to BuffaloRush's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Beane saved Peguala money and drafted what looks like a stud Mike and possible franchise Qb. The handling of Allen and the overall Qb position on a hole could leave McDermott vulnerable if the offense doesnt improve and lacks creativity. See Jon Fox, Lovie Smith, Jeff Fisher. -
9-12: Sean McDermott & Shady-Allen Pressers Live
Mat68 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It not hard to gather. If Allen had the lion share of practice with the starting offense, and the offense has been molded to his skill set the offense would be in a better place. Instead he has gotten a third to half to none of the reps. -
9-12: Sean McDermott & Shady-Allen Pressers Live
Mat68 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Taking 4 months to name Peterman the starter only to replace him after 2 quarters looks like one of the worst decisions in the franchise history. It's a blunder that could put him on the hot seat in Buffalo. The offense should have spent all the time Peterman got with the first team, running scramble drills with Allen. The offense would be light years ahead of where it is now. -
9-12: Sean McDermott & Shady-Allen Pressers Live
Mat68 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What did they want him so say. Peterman proved without any doubt he should never play professional quarterback. I thought he improved over the offseason, and the new offense would actually play to his strengths. Turns out he has no strengths and I have lousy judgement in terms of making decisions at the qb position. -
Confirmed: Bills to start rookie QB Josh Allen vs. Chargers
Mat68 replied to East TX Dan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes. Same reason you plug Edumnds into the Mike is why you plug Allen into the starting line up. By mid camp it should have been obvious that Allen needed to be on the field and how to prepare him to play. I am beginning to question Mcdermotts offensive leadership and how to create a productive offense. -
Him and Tellar may play sooner rather than later.
