He's 35. People talk he's some old timer taken out of some retirement home But yeah, he probably wasn't in "football season" shape and been thrown into the fire

People B word and complain for so many things... but this one is spot on. A few big checks to Carlson Palmer to convince him to come for a few 2 week stints here & there would pay big dividends. Let's face it: McD's tenure rises or falls with Allen's success. You'd expect more urgency and awareness!

Gronk is a Cheatriots but I used to find him funny and obviously talented. But that dangerous cheap shot that only got one game leaves everyone wanting revenge.

footballzebras.com ? There are really sites for everything

Ridiculous also since if the Bills would want to trade him, concussion is not exactly making his stock rise!

How come is cap hit is lower then his salary+bonus? Isn't this just a one year contract? But you know, at over 750K for a few months I would arrange for my family to come over unless the kids' schooling prevent it. Just rent something fairly cheap - no need to sell his house and move. Per NFL standards he's paid peanuts. For real life? 750K ain't bad at all!

It was fun... until this last week. The Losman period wasn't fun either. If Shady is traded and Josh barely plays I kind of feel of waiting out till next year! First time it's happened. Best preseason (well games 1-3) was this year though.

While I was, was, of the opinion McD and Beane should get 3 years so we see what they do with the 2019 huge cap space and long draft pick list, this 7th blowout in 24 games should put him on the hot seat. Not fired, but certainly feeling the heat. If he keeps control of the locker room and players keep competing hard, fine. If they go belly up from this point on, he has a good chance to follow.

I thought it was CHIP Kelly and could picture Shady doing a happy dance

I don't get why people on here are seeing such disrespect from Brady. I of course want the Bills D to plant him in the dirt and that his afternoon feels miserable but he was just giving a shout out to us Bills fans. To see disrespect there is really pushing it. You prefer opponents just ignore us? It's all part of the fun & games... when there is fun to be had. Remember the 2nd Rex game, first against the Pats, which was at home? We fans were all so pumped up. This time it's doom''gloom galore. And I'm one of them fed up. I'm just starting to get back some fighting spirit. The blowout plus Allen and Shady out (even it McCoy is not ruled out yet) made me real blaaaaahh.

How sad this can be? Here is a MNF in Buffalo, and everyone is depressed and has given up - me too BTW for the first time in years. I hope the players take upon themselves to shine. A Win against the damn Patriots would still be sweet. Without Josh and most likely Shady, damn this has lost of its allure

I was one of the patient fans. And since the dead cap space is horrible now, but it will flip next year, plus the draft picks, I was on the camp of let them prove themselves. But this 7th blowout in 24 games under McD is a firable offense - at the very least he should really feel some heat now. Like he's lost his immunity he got from taking the team to the playoffs last year and being a new coach. And while I did agree with getting rid of Dareus, paying the same amount of money for an average player like Star doesn't fill me with confidence they'll pay the right FA next year. The QB handling, from choosing & shipping out McCarron, sticking with Peterman, no mentor or coach for Allen before Anderson, etc. Many huge mistakes. BUT, all that said, if the team keeps fighting he deserves to make it to next year. If the players quit on him, and they did last game, then sorry, but it should be over for McD. Next games will decide IMO. Or should anyway. With this yet another blowout, Shady injured, Allen injured, now this serious talk of McD getting fired, this season has really gone to hell unless a cure is magically found. Getting blown out and quitting are not acceptable.

The blowouts are REALLY concerning. But as for "losing the locker room", while it might sure happen, so far the Bills have bounced back time and time again under McD.

And hopefully Josh is back to play his first MNF

Because they have slightly more picks than the other teams, but mostly, the most cap space by far - AT LAST! So they can hire good FA. As it stands now, the Bills roster is the least paid one in the NFL because of all the dead cap space. So IF, and that's the big IF, they make some good decisions, they are set up favorably for improvement in the league. It doesn't mean it will happen but yes they have the best odds league-wise. Like most GMs and brass, they will make blunders, some bad decisions, overpay a few players, but odds are they should also make some amazing decisions. Now their hands are tied.

So only 4 WRs left including one just activated from the practice squad? Even Brady and Rodgers couldn't do much! It's not like KB and Zay are killing it. And idiots want to call Allen a bust already.

There is such a thing as credible "conspiracy theories". And there is this.

WR corp is one of the very worse in the league. OLine is not as bad as people say IMO but still below average. A rookie QB and a pick-6 throwing one, now adding a rusty average at best vet. Fine. But what do I expect to see? Creativity, misdirections, two back sets, more use of these backs though not always down the middle, more use of the TE, etc. I expect a LOT more scheme wise and play calling than what we've seen, even accounting for all the obvious talent limitations on offense.

Yes! I was shocked he could have missed all of this season AND THE NEXT with the operation! WTH kind of horror is that? The sooner he's back the better And yes, words can be cheap, but again he says all the right things. It shows he has a very good mindset and mental toughness. Those are very good traist to have obviously. But even more so as a NFL QB.

What's great with Hughes and basically ALL the players on that video is that they look legit pissed or dejected. None look aloof or "it ain't so bad and I still get paid". And that's good, very good! Now Daboll, do better damn it.

Plausible indeed but the Bills would never say it as they would be penalized for not disclosing Allen's injury

If he misses 6 games it's bad enough. If it's some of 2019 too, damn! Really, really awful. It looked so mundane as fro as NFL contacts go.

People forget dropped passes and schemes too easily... Also in shootout type of games, offenses get the ball more than in ball control type games And I wonder for my sanity why I even bother. You don't judge a player like Allen in 5 games. Edit: watching the game last night, I was something shocked at how wide some receivers were opened. On both teams. For the Cheatriots too on SNF too. And I recall slow guys like O'Reilly being wide open at times and other receivers too. Why? SCHEMES, the overall playcalling.

That Allen is 4th of the 4 rookie QBs or on par with them, it's close enough. And I, personally, have mostly a good felling about him. Add very suspect gameplanning and schemes, no QB coach (maybe now Anderson will be one of sorts), WRs that really dont help at all, very few deep throws which could be his strong point, slightly below average OLine (no I didn't say bad or worse), tough defenses so far, only 5 games. Give the kid a chance you downers! He might not pan out but again, no clear indication of that so far.

Rushed by Watt. Going backward threw to sideline for no gain. Showed his arm strength but not a great decision, should have just thrown it away. It was one of the best pass for zero yards I've seen LOL
