The closest comparison I could come up with to a former Buffalo QB besides Jim Kelly (gunslinger attitude) is James Harris, and I really don't know how close they are besides being big bodied, strong armed and athletic.
Mostly, I think Josh Allen is unique in Buffalo's team history.

Remember when they gave him blank video cassettes and told him it was game film and he lied to the coaches about watching it? Dude was a waste case.
Never heard that story, but it fits.

I've wanted the Bills to go get this guy the last two offseasons. Not a starter anymore but can provide depth.
Just not sure he is a better player than Justin Zimmer right now.
Not sure what the heck is going on with Oliver. Knew he would be a little undersized, but he is playing horrifically right now.
Is Zimmer playing 1 tech? He's small for that. Then again, so is Jernigan if you're looking for a run plugger.

A lot of big name kickers have missed kicks they should have made this season. I'm not going get down on the kid. Let him develop a while and see if the consistency improves.

It's kind of irrelevant since JaMarcus Russell was such a dud otherwise. I don't recall if the Raiders ever started him at all. He had been a first overall draft pick and was like 6'6" and 250 lbs.
-
Supposedly JaMarcus Russell had arm strength much Like Josh Allen's. Unfortunately, Russell's lack in other areas made him one of the all time great busts of the NFL.

I could see that. Is he a bigger DT? Sorry if i Can’t remember
I don't think he's huge - maybe 6'3" and somewhere close to 305, give or take a few pounds. He's got some wheels though.

Harrison Phillips isn't exactly old for a player.

Their physical traits are similar though Allen has the stronger arm and is more athletic. It's hard to make a direct comparison because the team surrounding the player has a great impact, not only on the success or failure of the QB, but the habits and discipline of the QB. Wentz's lack of weapons and poor blocking will tend to make him want to try and carry more on his shoulders to help the team. Ans as we all know, that can become hero ball and end up being counterproductive. Over time, I assume that can be habit forming, leading to some regression as a player. It may take a smart, process oriented coach to help him through it. I don't know if Wentz has that in Pederson or not.
-
I don't think adverse weather affects either team more than the other. Devin Singletary and Clyde Edwards-Helaire are more alike than not, though Edwards-Helaire has been a lot more productive this season.
-
There is no other running back in the league like Derrick Henry. He's one of a kind. There are other backs who are more elusive runners and there are faster backs, but nobody combines Henry's speed, size and power like Henry.
-
Too bad for Bush and the Steelers. Bills Steelers is coming up in mid-December. That will give the Steelers time to acclimate to life without Bush, but there's no way they can completely make up for the loss of speed in the middle.
-
Certainly John Brown's contribution is part of what makes this offense special when living up to potential. Not having him means a significant adjustment for Josh. Still, Hapless also has a point. Josh himself admitted he can be too greedy at times.

The Patriots loss knocked me out of my second and last survivor league, but I'm OK with that. The Patriots are going down.
-
I'm fine with the question. We knew going into the Titans game that the Titans are as physical as any team in the league, and they showed it in the game. Buffalo didn't measure up and both players and coaches needed to ask themselves if they are going to accept the disparity of physicality or do something about it. That's what Kim's question was getting at. I'm not going to dis anyone named Jones. LOL

The Jets were afraid that McLendon was exerting some positive culture. Can't have that on an Adam Gase coached team.
-
Sure, and we could also duplicate our loss to the Titans. It all comes down to execution, with a little health and good officiating thrown in.

I agree that Gase is a terrible head coach and should be fired. The question is, who is going to evaluate the Jets executives. Unfortunately for the Jets, they are the root of the problem and it's hard to imagine that the team will be able to make meaningful long term improvements until the head gets lopped off of that giant mess.

There are lots of observations made about Josh Allen that are true, or at least have some grain of truth. He did seem a bit off in the game on Tuesday. I have felt that Patrick Mahomes was a little off in a couple of games he's had this season. No QB is accurate on every throw. I've seen misses from Mahomes, Rodgers, Brees, Brady and others I've seen this season. I think the Tuesday game was a perfect storm of mistakes for the Bills. Allen missed some passes through some accuracy issues. The second interception looked like a misread. Had the defender not been in that spot, the pass was a completion. Josh needs to account for that defender before he lets go of the ball. The defense missed tackles and had its own misreads. The offensive line didn't block well. The defensive line didn't get pressure. The officiating was bad. The whole thing was a mess. Hopefully the team takes it as a wake up call.

Usually for a day, no more. Today, circumstances kept me away from the computer through the first part of the day.

Evil eye genius strikes again. LOL. Gase and his GM may manage to completely destroy the entire franchise.

I mean that the lack of respect for the Bills will drop them to the bottom of everyone if they lose a game, or worse if they lose 2.If they lose two, then yeah, they're out of the top ten.

I think if they win the next 2 weeks there’s no denying they are the hottest team in the league. If they lose one or both, they won’t be in the top 10 😂
Not sure about the second half of your comment, but it would be hard to imagine them not being #1 after winning the next 2.
Trevor Lawrence Advised to Avoid Jets

The problem goes deeper than Adam Gase. I'm assuming Gase will get fired during the course of this season, but it was a broken organization that led to the hiring of Gase in the first place. Until the owner shows evidence he has fixed that, starting at the top, I sure would be wary about going there.
PatsFanNH is right in that Trevor can easily choose to stay for his senior season. There's always a slight risk that he could suffer a catastrophic injury or just have a terrible senior season, but there are worse things that staying one more year on a team that could win the national championship. I understand that Dabo Swiney is a fun coach to play for.
