Please name Josh Allen the starter
Mark92 replied to PlayoffsPlease's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I still think we should sit him. Yes he has done a really nice job so far and I am happy with his progress. I just remember Jordan Palmer saying "SIT him a whole year and you'll have something Nobody has ever had, BUT you can't rush him no matter what". I think we are at the no matter what poimt right now. Yes it's sooner than most everyone thought but we still need to be patient. -
National Josh Allen buzz after 1 preseason half
Mark92 replied to transplantbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Now we can reach the end zone from the opponents 20 yard line at the end of the game if needed ? Can you imagine what might be if Allen gets speedsters who can catch the ball. Damn. -
Allen already a factor in QB race ?
Mark92 replied to Buffalo Barbarian's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No but you can lose it. Allen is doing a little better than expected and the other two a little worse. Even if Allen hands down wins the job I still think they should wait on the kid. Sit him until the bye week I say. -
"Josh Allen is blowing people away" - Chris Simms
Mark92 replied to Estro's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Simms father is a BIG Josh Allen fan also. Makes me wonder if they know something we don't or if the families are connected?? -
Josh Rosen already impressing in Arizona.
Mark92 replied to Klaista2k's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Honestly this doesn't shock me. Rosen is a good QB. He has injury concerns and he his kind of a jerk. I think all 5 first round QBs will be good. It was a great draft class. It's all about the fit from here on out to see who has the best career. -
I think our defense has top 10 potential. The OL and WR positions worry me but I think our defense will keep us in games and maybe win a few for us. I'll go 9-7 which will be quite a feat for a team that starts the year with AJ and finishes with a rookie. I think we just miss the playoffs. Look out for 2019 though. Tons of cap space to upgrade the offense and maybe final touches on defense. I think this team will be ready to roll come 2019.

The Bills teams of late 80s and early 90s
Mark92 replied to Ice bowl 67's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The 1990 and maybe 1993 team. -
I'm glad to see the numbers on this poll. I will admit I was in the Rosen camp but even he had red flags for me. I was quick to become a fan of Allen's and so hopeful that he is the guy we have been searching for. I can't say I was shocked by the overall disappointment when the Allen pick came in. I was shocked however by the hatred pointed at Allen in the days following. This poll shows that Bills fans have warmed up to this kid are willing to give him a chance. Definitely nice to see.

Stop trading players for picks. We needed the draft capital plus we had to remove players that were not Beane and McDermott guys. We did it, it's over. We got Allen and Edmunds in exchange for pretty much all those players we traded away. It's time to add players from free agency and draft picks we have.
-
I don't think it would wise to start Allen at all this year. He needs to learn the NFL game better. He has all the tools and smarts to do just that but I feel rushing him won't help.
-
That's usually the way it works when drafted players boom. Look at the Cowboys with Elliott and Prescott. When you hit on impact player the payoff is almost instant. God I hope they hit on Allen and Edmunds.

Start Allen from Day 1/ QB competition
Mark92 replied to BuffaloBud420's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think years 3 and 4 for McDermott are going to be huge. We load up on free agents after this coming 2nd year, Allen becomes starter in year 3 and we are rolling in year 4. -
Enjoy!

I believe the bills made the right call drafting Allen. The question I have is..... Will the Bills give him the coaching that he needs to develop? I would seriously consider bringing in a QB whisperer for this Kid. I don't think just having Daboll create an offense for his strengths will be enough. Jordan Palmer was a good idea but if Palmer can do it then I am sure anyone with proven NFL QB coaching skills will do. One more thing about Palmer really saying great things about Allen..... At least he didn't pull a Mora and say that Sam Darnold should be #1 and not his college QB Josh Rosen. I would be pissed if my coach ever did that to me. Actually Allen's head coach at Wyoming said that Allen deserved to be #1 just based on what he expects Allen to become.

Adam Schefter stated that it was well known for a long time that buffalo was in love with Allen. He was almost positive that Allen topped their board. I only wonder why we didn't hear that. Some experts thought it was a good match but we never got the news that the Bills loved him. Also.... We traded to 2nds to move from 12 to 7. The deal with Denver was going to be 12,22 and a second rounder. The Jets gave up 3 2nd rounders for only 3 spots. I think we paid what the market was and did a good job keeping 22 and not tossing im any picks for next year.

Time that changes

So how many of us will spend the money to buy an Allen jersey before we even see him behind center? I'll admit it, I'm thinking about it. I am all in on this kid, anyone else?

Start Allen from Day 1/ QB competition
Mark92 replied to BuffaloBud420's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You can not compare where Rosen is with his talents right now to where Allen is. Rosen is clearly the better QB right now. Allen is so raw right now. He's like a a pitcher that has a 102 MPH fastball but can't strike anyone out. Once he learns how to do it watch out! I really like the Allen pick and I think the debate to sit him or start him is foolish at this point. Let's see how this summer goes first. -
Opinions on why we passed on Rosen?
Mark92 replied to Klaista2k's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Any college QB who has already had concussion issues is an instant red flag. Yes the kid is talented but if he misses half the season and has his career cut short what's the point? -
And now the plan is a lot clearer...
Mark92 replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
All the so called "experts" say he needs to sit. The length of time to keep him on the bench is all over the place. I personally say don't rush him. Nobody knows for sure what we have in AJ. Let AJ play this year so he can hopefully find a starting job somewhere else. No matter how well he does this IS Allen's team. If AJ sucks then give Peterman another chance to display what he can or can not do. Josh Allen is a project with huge upside if he hits his potential. Hopefully the Bills will put the right people around him so he can reach it. -

Mark92 replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You're right I don't know. But I do know that Baker Mayfield was not and is not the BEST player in this draft! But the browns needed a QB and he was at the top of their QB list. So yes, he was probably on top of their board but it doesn't make him the best player. Just the best fit. Same goes for Allen at #7. I love the kid but he is not one of the best 7 players, hell none of the QBs were. -

Mark92 replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
And there is no way Mayfield is the best player in the draft! Give me a break with this line of thinking. Teams draft for needs and best fit at the top of the board. #7 best player of course wasn't Allen but he was the best player that buffalo needed still on the board. -
GDT: 2018 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
Mark92 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
They can't trade up though. We need the picks for depth. We just need to wait and hope we can find a starting caliber players of need at 96.
