  1. So much for changing the culture. The guy can play better than anyone we have at the position. The hell with the culture.
  2. The idea is to win games, however it is done. Winning 13-12 boring games is better than losing 50-45. If Jim Kelley was healthy enough, and wanted to do it, Allen could learn more from him than possibly anyone.
  3. If Tyrod ever had a game with 79 yards passing, there would have been 20 negative threads about it. Allen gets a pass? Of course he should, because he is not ready. There was a story today about bringing in another ex Panther to mentor him. Another Benjamin maybe?
  4. If you think Castillo is a problem then don't give his boss a pass. The buck stops at the top. The head man is responsible for Castillo.
  5. You are right about Shady. He is one of the premier running backs in all of football, although you wouldn't know it if you came on the scene recently. Maybe it wouldn't make a difference if he got more touches because Santa Clause couldn't get through to deliver if he had this OL trying to open a space. If they don't know football 101 that the run game or the threat of a run game opens it up for the pass game, then something is clearly wrong. The Minnesota game plan never had to be used because that team came on the field acting like they just closed every bar in the State. The fumbles and horrid play of the Vikings was a aberration, as they almost beat the undefeated Rams the past week.
  6. The big knock on Tyrod Taylor was he was not a pocket passer. That is what will happen to Josh Allen if he has to run out of the pocket as defensive lineman bear down on him all the time. Also, defenses, the more they see on film, the more they know his tendencies, and how to beat him. He is not game ready, and a lot of these young hot shot QBs performances will quickly diminish. Sam Darnold, after his beat down of the Lions in game #1 was called a star. His next 3 games have been bad. This is the big boys league, and there are lot smarter people on opposing teams than great rookie QBs. Some people are calling for Patrick Mahomes to be a hall of famer. He has been great, but 3 games is too small a sample. He may be a all time great, but 3 games is not a career, and what he sat and learned last year can't be duplicated by rookie QBs who suffer growing pains, and how rookies succeed depend more than on talent. It is coaching and organizational acumen. Jim Kelley was more than a rookie coming to the Bills, Josh Allen is a rookie..
  7. With a combination of horrible coaching, OL and WRs of course they can wind up in the graveyard of QBs. There is no way you can tell me if Rogers was quarterbacking the Bills yesterday we would have won the game. If Allen wasn't so mobile there is no telling what would have happened.
  8. Call me a troll or whatever, as I got ripped for my last post for complaining about losing Woods, Watkins, and Goodwin for almost nothing and replacing them with this group of WRs. The Pats tried Decker and Gordon this year. They both may not work out, but at least they TRIED to improve their WRs. 1. We have no QB mentor to help teach Allen this year, unless you think he should learn the position from Nathan Peterman. 2. Low balling Incognito before his breakdown backfired, and we have been blaming OCs from before Marone's time for our OL problems, when the real problem is a lack of competent GMs who haven't had a clue on OL talent, and please don't tell me to trust the process. 3. Our WR core is among or maybe the worst in the league. You can refer to the first paragraph for my thinking on that. The bottom line is if Allen gets no help to correct his physical errors, and continues to run for his life messing up his mental makeup, he won't make it here.
  9. 4. I don't have a clue what this # is about. Our OC is a problem. On the first series 3rd and 1, the most predictable play possible was called. A run play right into the middle of the Packers D. Late in the 3rd Q, down 19-0 on two consecutive series, run plays were called. With this O Line you could have guessed the result beforehand. Call me whatever you want, but Beane and McD stripped the roster of so much talent for draft choices. Even with the best GMs that is a roll of the dice.
  10. Maybe this thread should be closed now before all the past negative comments and I told you sos' appear. When they were bad, it didn't need to be sugar coated, and when they are good, actually more than good, we need not be shy about it either. Total domination, how sweet it is. Let's build on it. 1. Amazing performance by Allen. Without sitting a year and no veteran mentor now, yesterday was the day his talent showed to the NFL. Whatever growing pains he will have, the future holds so much promise for him. 2. Jerry Hughes and Kyle Williams. A blast from the past. Where had you gone for so long, guys. Welcome back. 3. No matter what McDermott says about his DC. This game had the HC fingerprints all over the D. At the end of the year, if there is a award for game of the year to a HC, this was it.
  11. It figures. knocking the OP because he is telling the truth. This roster could not win the Grey Cup this year.
  12. Apparently a lot of people are missing the point of the post. It is not about salary caps or week 1 or 2 production. It is about the fact that Watkins, Woods and Goodwin are gone and replaced by Benjamin, Zay and whoever. If anyone wants to argue that what we have now for WRs is better than what we had, you can argue that forever. It was the GM and HC (they are tied at the hip) to replace what talent that left, with better talent, not worse talent, and they did not do that. End of story unless you actually believe they want to lose on purpose, to empty New Era, to set up Allen to fail, and to make the Bills the laughing stock of the NFL, and scare free agents away, and if you believe that, then there is no hope for you.
  13. For those who think this is idiotic, enjoy spending your money at New Era this year, and we will see who the idiots are.
  14. The entire NFL landscape is covered with ex Bills doing for their teams what they did not do for the Bills. Would the Bills have been better off with Alanzo rather than McCoy? Who knows. I just know we have not won with with McCoy and his production keeps going down hill because he has no OL to open space for him.
  15. If anyone thinks the entire NFL was trying to hire McDermott and Beane and the Bills got lucky, then maybe they should check out where they rank on the GM and HC pay scale in the NFL.
  16. Gugny, I call it the way I see it, and if you are having trouble seeing things from London, then do something about it, and enjoy this mess (sorry, process) because I and a lot of others don't.
  17. The most passing yards and $3.00 will get me some brew at Starbucks tomorrow.
  18. I know what I saw the past 2 weeks, why don't you tell us what you saw.
  19. The last 2 weeks are what happens when you quit on talent as the above statistics from Sunday shows. Like I wrote last year, Beane and McDermott got duped by Carolina on Benjamin. He is even on the injury report again this week. Jones made 1 long catch after he bobbled the ball. I guess running around naked with blood on his body didn't make him a better WR. Thanks for the discipline Sean and Beane.
  20. At least I haven't done over 60,000. Get a life hater.
  21. Just quoting Roy Batty. Don"t you ever read these posts?
