Oh I don’t even care if it’s completed to be honest.

All I want is 1 snap with the 1st team, flea flicker from Shady to Allen right into Coleman’s &$@$ing surgically repaired bread basket....while Zay Jones blocks downfield. That’s it. I don’t care. This is supposed to be entertainment. Give me some of that. I want it now...

Flea flickers from Shady to Allen to Coleman. Visions of grandeur

Thank you

Yes. Thank you. I was mentally obliterated by the same thing.

Right next to an indefinitely clapping McD ?

Really just thought this was so positive that it should be reposted. I wouldn’t even ask for a Christmas present if the O-line ends up being reliable enough to not have to be a focal point to address next off season.

Agreed. I also think Daboll being OC hedges the odds in Allen’s favor. Coming from the college ranks his familiarity as far as communicating and on the fly adjusting with young players may lead him to press McD on handing Josh the reigns. Just because he doesn’t have that “I like me some veteren QB” mentality. Dont get me wrong if Allen didn’t have the frame of a Norse God I may have more reservations about throwing him in week one...but Josh seems like the type of guy who would want you to close the gate up and be afraid of what he’s about to do to these wolves...Kid’s got the mindset.

I feel like I’m the only person pumped for Wyatt Teller. I believe he was an absolute steal and will develop into a stud, hopefully gelling with Dawkins and Co. for a good while. I’m really hoping similar to last year that we will have a couple 3rd+ round gems. Very excited to see if Kyle Williams can mold Harrison Phillips into a KW Jr. and whether or not Adolphus Washington will be fueled by the new additions as far as turning his corner. It would be great to have the DL revitalized from within as opposed to being a main area to address next year. Same goes for Shaq. Really hoping that Lorenzo Alexander has one more good year in him because if he slows down and Milano doesn’t return to form there’s only so much Edmunds can do. I believe the defense will be better this year almost strictly because of Edumunds, hopefully enough to where we can only focus on filling the offense with playmakers around JA in 2019. Josh Allen takes the reigns after a 1-3 start, Bills make it again as a wildcard 9-7 GO BILLS!

Long time thread peruser, first time poster. I’d like to thank you all for the countless hours of mental stimulation you have been responsible for. That being said... From what I gather many of the people here seem to be leaning towards either AJ starting a few games, whatever that number may be, and then handing over the reigns to Josh Allen. Me personally. I believe even just based on his Senior Bowl development and the seemingly huge strides in his footwork, that Allen truely does have a 50/50+ shot at starting, and I would love to see that because those defenses he will be seeing will really give him an idea of what will be coming for the rest of the year/career, and really after LA, you would hope that...as far as pressure related decisions go...coaches as well as Allen himself will have A TON of high caliber film to review. And I feel as though JA has already shown an above average ability to adjust and correct problems in a rather swift fashion based on intelligence. (As shown by his tone with Palmer and the Senior bowl) As far as him losing confidence, I feel he has had enough trials and tribulations not to let a few hiccups (non-injury related) slow down his growth. It will only serve as more processible information as opposed to a reason to shy away from trying to make play. Based on how well his testing went in the wonderlic, I think one could argue that the entire NFL game could slow down for him immediately after going up against Bosa and company. —————— My vote is for Allen. But I would like to raise a question I haven’t really heard yet. IF we don’t start Allen, let’s say he is a 5-6, and we want him at 7-8 before starting...does it make sense to just go ahead and throw NP in and keep AJ an unknown for the rest of the league? I ask this because, if we assume JA will start soon enough and AJ = NP(or at least close) I would think that Beane would at least be entertaining the thought of using AJ as potential trade bait for the eventuality that someone’s QB1 goes down. QB needy teams love to overpay for bridge/fringe starters when in need—and no team would be hesitant to pick up AJM’s absurdly cheap contract in exchange for draft capital. With him being an unknown, wouldn’t that trade value stay higher than if he were to go out and have a string full of 1 TD games behind an unsettled Oline before we hand Josh the keys? I know it’s an out there question, just wondering if anyone else had considered it? All his trade value goes away especially in the event that he ends up injured while the line is getting cohesive. Does that make Nate the best bridge to preserve overall QB room value? Or does AJM just give us THAT MUCH better chance to win? Jeez. That was long. Sorry!
