I'm frustrated bro.
We haven't had a quarterback in forever and I feel like we drafted a bust.
Negativity and bringing everyone down at this early stage is surely not going to make good though. I think it matters when a ton of vocal critics and local sports writers attack a young QB. There are those who claim he should be impervious to it and somehow not human but that's crap - he's a young guy with half of new York state holding the past 20 years on his shoulder - and he has no talent around him other than RBs and maybe Dawkins. Many great QBs had rough rookie NFL years and were not run out of town for it - so to speak.
Next year will likely see a very new and very young bills offense; complete with its own, new problems. What will JA be in 2021? Nobody can even intelligently guess at this point. He is good though at the very least.
How about that defense? ?

He's just a boy!
Cripes. Let the be for two years. Let's talk about what we do know - the rest of the offense and who might we keep. Going to be a very young and fresh offense next season I suspect.

As far as contextualizing Josh Allen's performance, he's been terrible by any metric. Rookie metrics, vet metrics, Pee Wee metrics, sabermetrics. The guy has been bad. I don't know how you establish a baseline.
I'm glad we have a Head Coach who knows how to win close games because we're not gonna be blowing anyone out anytime soon.
Just why? Why attack this kid? Crab in a barrel. Who is our offense right now?
Who are the studs? The #1 and 2 RBs. Who else? What is this kid working with? The only people who catch reliably are also the RBs. If those many catchable balls had been caught then the stats would be very different. So damned toxic.

Taylor was not good enough AND Josh Allen may not be the answer. The two are not mutually exclusive
Why are they not exclusive? They are two different players. Those two opinions are not conjoined in any way.
I've seen JA make passes in tight spaces this summer and fall which I don't think I ever saw from tyrod - and he's just out of the gate. Not hating tyrod mind you. . .I never bashed him but did admit he would require a top 1 or 2 defense to ever win it all.

so far Josh has more rushing TD's (3) than passing (2).
his poor accuracy, even on short throws is worrisome. most of his long passes are overthrown.
he's not even close to Tyrod...yet !!…….last year TT ranked around 15th in both passer rating and total QBR
Josh isn't even in the Top 32 for either.....not good !!
Man, you are just toxic. I was thinking this would be a week where your type were mostly silent. Thanks for peeing in the danged cornflakes.

I love WNY but when it comes to QBs we seem to be just crabs in a barrel - pulling the new QB down into the barrel anytime he gets near the top. We have a history of this and so a history of a long string of failed, young QBs to match.
JA looks like the best chance we've had in awhile. Let's let him become himself without all the hate. Meh, never happen though. . .too much bitterness around.

5 games in and Luck shows he can take a hit, run well, and throw short passes. But the long ball and even intermediate ball are still missing (At least consistently.) I hope as the season goes along Luck shows greater progression.
He threw a fantastic deep pass last night which was inexplicably dropped by his receiver. Gave me a deja vu so intense I had the pee shakes.

We are thin at CB after Vontae pulled a Vontae and Phillip Gaines (who is terrible to begin with) has a robot arm right now.
But while it's necessary, I have to admit it is extremely frustrating seeing them consistently addressing their Defensive holes and completely ignoring their Offensive ones.
When dumpster diving one needs to accept what is at hand, not what one wishes might have been found. Confuscious say or something. . .

Any of those would still be an upgrade over what we have. We could also try and trade for somebody defeat considering that we have 10 draft picks in next years draft.
Are you in denial regarding this season? Why would we trade draft picks (our near future) for 2018 players?
And the dez talkers - why throw away so much money on 2018 like that?? Development for JA perhaps but that's a lot of money for a short term play friend for him.

As for removing players with personalities that don't fit are we sure it's badasses that are undesired? I think it's more prima donnas, lazy guys, those afraid to tackle and such that get removed. Who was a bad ass which was cut or traded by McD? Richie was not shunned by McD.
As for this guy, he might be an exception as the cost is so very low. Not much risk to try.
Rebuild - let them do whatever they can with the defense now - it will only mean that much more love for offense come draft.

Three years ago, rex year 1 I think, my son was 8 years old and was watching the game next to me. He had really gotten into football that fall and was watching way more games than I cared to. I turned and saw he was crying. He saw me and bawled "do I have to be a Bills fan?" Ha. I let him root for an NFC team (seahawks to date) but told him simply "yes, son. It's what we do." Lol. True stuff.
OP said he was age 13. That makes perfect sense to me. Those who make it to middle school, when grades have real letters and not just stock qoute sweet nothings from a teacher, without caring about the Bills will soon be indoctrinated via brainwashing.
I was into baseball and not much for football in elementary. Then the grades were real. "Please, please let the bills win this weekend! Report cards are being mailed in a few days." It's a fact. I doubt I'm alone here.
Meh, builds character - something cowboys fans know nothing about! So, we got that at least.

you sound like a typical troll that just supports whatever the team does.
You sound like the typical bills fan who just complains instantly and is the reason why we never get nice things. Had Peyton manning started here in his first season against the four teams we just played and with this offense you would tarred and feathered him out of town.
Try decafe or may an herbal tea tomorrow.

The theme of the day for Biils passing game was our WRs cannot catch and josh was quickly under attack most every play.

Shoulda tried the elusive onside punt. /s

So we can’t wait for Allen? ?
Well, he can't - he made his username based on it. Everytime JA completes a pass he looks like a dork.

At least the packer who's pitching is gentleman enough to give Josh a reach around. Respect!

KB isn't worth anything. Will probably be a FA after this year that we'll hopefully decline to sign.
IMO, trading a player chosen team captain is sending the wrong message to the rest of the team. I think you have to hold onto him.
As far as his performance this season goes, we've seen time and again that the nation does not watch bills games and generally just go with the talking points. We know what he is but I bet there's a team out there not in the know and will assume he could be an addition.

Oh, man - was I wrong! Dood has seven children per Wikipedia. He's 25 yo. That explains that. Concussions be damned I reckon. What's wrong with these guys?

Bailing out of the pocket early.. A clear sign he’s not trusting or processing what he’s seeing. Clear sign of being rattled
Or maybe a clear sign that he has learned to not have faith in the oline holding together.

I have said over the years that buffalo destroys young QBs. Seems to be a habit. I do also agree though that barring critical injury, this oline and WR problem should not ruin him.if we can fix it in the next year or two.
I suspect it's us that gets to these QBs. Us includes press and fans. Buffalo is hard on them and lacking patience maybe. This kid and this mgmt staff need at least until then end of next season before all of this negative, start over talk. How can we expect to have nice things when we run everyone out of town?
Ajayi out for season, Bell and Shady possible trade targets

I think you forgot the mark this as sarcasm but with some of the other crazy replies in this thread it's hard to tell.
Trade him. Sad for sure. Fun player and our best receiver and a captain but he's not part of 2020- and this is not our year. Do ot soon befor possible injury makes him worthless this year. Sorry shady. . .process first. No one likes dieting but we all like the female attention at the other end. Do it. . . Do it !
