Probably not a popular opinion but I think Jared Allen should get in before Peppers. Allen has less career sacks but had more per game. Out of that list I think the following deserve the call. Antonio Gates Eric Allen Jared Allen Jahri Evans Tory Holt Julius Peppers Patrick Willis (I never thought he deserved early contention but hes waited five rounds, and he may be the most impactful ILB outside of Urlacher)

Prostitution arrest: Ohio style
thenorthremembers replied to \GoBillsInDallas/'s topic in Off the Wall
Hopefully she was having them pay for the gas as well. Given inflation not having them pay for the gas, and only charging $100 for the actual acts is terrible business sense. Can only hope she takes some business management classes in the clink and puts herself in a better position for success on the next go around. -
From what I see they eat 35 million dollars in a release and close to 19 million if they trade him.

I was in 10th grade. Found all the madness incredibly odd, but also at that point in life I didn't understand the scope of the potential fallout. Stayed up watched the ball drop and was mildly amused when the power didn't go out. An early lesson in mass hysteria and herd mentality.

I think this is all very fair. My main sticking points are the passing yards and touchdowns. But to your point, there are extenuating circumstances. Outside of statistics, I prefer Josh's attitude. It may not count for much but having to watch a player for 10-15 seasons, especially at the QB position, it does matter as a fan. A very Happy New Year's, and a big time Go Bills!

Chance of Playoffs now, according to NYT simulator

A lot better shape than we were in two weeks ago. I thought they'd have to win out for sure but looks like they can probably afford to lose one game and still get in. -
Your Top 5 MVP vote if you were a voter

If the Bills win out and end up winning the division I think Josh should get the MVP. Right now I have it. Allen McCaffrey Hurts Prescott Hill -
I think I said it in one of my posts, maybe not, but I'd love to see Josh be the greatest of all time when he is done. I loathe the Chiefs, and would very much like to see them fall off the face of the NFL landscape. But, the question asked was why everyone thinks Mahomes is better than Allen, and I am not going to let my Fandom completely cloud my ability to have a real conversation. And to this point in their careers Mahomes has been better in every category. The conversation was never strictly about this year. Letting your emotional connection to something get in the way of your ability to understand reason and logic is a really bad way to go through life. I've been a Bills fan for 35 years, have coached football for the last 10. Never thought I'd have my allegiance and football knowledge ripped apart because I had the audacity to say a guy with multiple Super Bowl wins and MVPs is a little better than Josh. If it makes you guys feel better I've bought spent hundreds of dollars on Josh Allen merchandise for my family and truly think Mahomes looks like Darlene from Roseanne.

And how many Super Bowls did any of those guys win without him?

We are just going to have to agree to disagree. Won't argue that Josh is a freak athlete. But I can't get on board with him processing the game as well, or throwing a more accurate ball than Mahomes.
-
Again, Kelce is toast and Hill is gone and the team records and passing statistics will be virtually identical even though Allen has Diggs. Do I think Allen wins a Super Bowl in KC yes I do. But your question, along with many others here was, why do I think Mahomes is better than Allen. And because we can't look at the scenario logically, we'd rather talk about hypotheticals.

Josh is a better runner without question. Mahomes is more accurate and their arms are a push. It's incredible to me how you and the like give Reid, Kelce, and Hill all the credit when none of them had won crap without Mahomes. He was the missing piece not vice versa. Same group of people so clouded by Fandom they called Brady a system QB. Meanwhile the guy is playing with crap at WR this year, while Josh has a legitimate hall of fame talent on his team and their passing stats will likely be within a touchdown or 2 of one another and a few hundred yards difference. I guess my football eyes just aren't as well trained as everyone here who can "see it" enough to ignore every logical statistic out there.
