Yesterday was my first exposure to Mahomes. He seems ok. He didn’t blow me away like many here talk about him. His team is ridiculous. Sammy Watkins whom many here act like he’d be our true #1 gem of an all time wide reciever isn’t even the third, maybe even fourth guy they look to in that offense. Am I a little jealous of that team, sure. But grow up. You guys are acting like the kid at the park that cries every time he sees another kids toy he wants. I think Allen will be just fine. We need the playmakers and oline around him now.

I’m surprised they’d even let this stat get out. This is the kind of thing that completely ruins your credibility. This is garbage data and anyone watching Allen behind that line knows they need to look at what they’re actually collecting. Next gen, hope not?

I’m so lost. What exactly are you trying to accomplish? If it’s an attempt at humor, it wasn’t done very well.

And there were passes Allen makes like that laser sharp td pass in preseason that Rosen couldn’t make in 1,900 years on this planet. So what? We can all cherry pick. In fact, how many amazing upsets with two rushing tds and 1 passing against a super bowl contender does Rosen have? Be honest.

This is such an old topic. Nothing has changed. Some players won’t want to come to Buffalo. True. Do you have a plan to change that or are you just starting the thread to somehow appease your unhealthy football anxiety?

Allen’s fine. When we finally get off our bums and give the kid some lineman and reciever help he’ll be just what the doctor ordered. Can take a hit and plays with a serious fire in his belly. I like what I see from the rook.

Josh still plays with fire in his belly. I like it. He’ll learn from this and when we finally help him out with reciever and o line help he’ll be a-ok!

Hard to quantify, it’s better than many really good qb’s in the Nfls best plays. So it might be but thats not necessarily a bad thing. Better than any of Trubisky’s best plays.

Yes. That’s how communication works. What do you think capitalized letters and exclamation points are? Why not just use periods for everything then?

Why are you screaming at him? All caps?

Yes, taking time out of your day to make an already spectacular crapfest even crappier means you are carefree and fun. Must be hard being a gentleman missing the man part. Maybe you should change the name to captain cave?

Nah... just take the loss gracefully like a gentleman. I can see that’s a very hard concept for most people though so congrats being part of the majority.

Is that something that would make you happy? I should have known a guy asking for that isn’t capable of photoshopping for himself. Computers hard!

Last week. Did you forget? This is football. You win some and you lose some. How do so so many people not know that?

Really going out on a limb here. You should be a GM.

Defeatists... smh...

Allen’s coming off a week where he was a god in wny. He’s a rook, he’ll settle down. Maybe not this game, but he’ll settle down. He’s playing against two icon type guys he grew up watching in Rodgers and Matthews, that’s gotta be a bit jarring.

Yeah, can we please just sit here and think about this when there’s a game on? Ugh... bills fans.

Nah... nah...

Insult? I called you a genius. You took everything I wrote in the first post literally, why change it up now? Oh... probably because you knew exactly what I meant in my original post but had to take the opportunity to agitate instead of have a grown up discussion. Speaks to your character.

Kelly played really well in the USFL as well, he and Steve Young played what anyone who ever watched it claims to be the best game of football ever played. The best game never seen, I think they called it. Kelly eeked our the win in the end. EDIT: “greatest game no one saw.”

Yes, that’s it, Gentry. And yes again, he’s not lightning fast. God I’m so sick of people thinking football is a combine. The field is full of guys that aren’t “fast” in nfl terms. That’s probably more than 70% of the guys out there. Obviously he dropped passes genius, it was an exaggeration to add a slice of humor. Are you always this dull or do you just try extra hard when you’re on football message boards?

He should never have gone anywhere to begin with. Of all the guys we let go, he’s the one I want back the most. He wasnt asking for a kings ransom. Second, Darby. I feel like that move was only done to soften the blow of losing Watkins. I was fine with Watkins departure. Will never understand the Darby move.

Honestly, there probably is something to the fact that Allen throws too hard. That’s not a bad thing. It’s a good thing if you have recievers that can catch it because it get to them faster and can fit in smaller windows. I just think the coaches have to be to be aware of this when bringing in recievers. Some guys can catch, but can they catch the heat? It really is a skill on top of a skill. Its why I’d really like us to try and trade for that guy on the Bears (if he’s still there) that caught almost all of Allen’s passes in college.

I wanted Rosen too. I’m not willing to say I was wrong about that just yet, but I am extremely encouraged by Allen’s progression. Kid looks like the real deal, and is focused on the right things. Better than I could’ve imagined. At this point. I’ve been fooled before, Trent Edwards, Fitzmagic, EJ for a game or two... Please let this QB seeking part of my life be over. As other Bills fans understand, It’s exhausting.
