The most sacked NFL QB in a season is David Carr.
Sacked 76 times in 2002.
Will Josh Allen take that record from Carr this season?!
The fact that Groy is terrible doesn't make Wood better.
He was not as good as his reputation suggested IMO.
agreed, never understood the love affair with Wood

I miss the old days when posters hated on Wood.
He used to get pushed around a lot as well Every time we played the Bengals Geno Atkins would throw him around a few times Not a Wood fan but he's probably better than what we got going now

Of all the throws he made, the one to Murphy was the one that bothered me the most. He just lobbed it when it should have been a dart. That was a QB aiming it instead of throwing it.
He might no trust Murphy's receiving skills He had a drop or two during the game Don't know how he catches in practice I would think a young qb might have a tendency to baby passes to guys once they drop a few

I took a peek at free agents for 2019 and its not awfully exciting Maybe Geno Atkins

You have 10 draft picks and lots of cap space What should be fixed first to have long term success?

What’s frustrating is our Oline is terrible but yet they’re having Josh Allen take 5 step drops and reading the defense.
Id be calling quic hitters, pivot and throw. Substitute the run game with short passing game. 1-5 yd hitches, quick outs, slants, short crossing routes, WR screens, TE screen, RB motion quick outs/hitches, swing passes..... that would be 70% of the plays id call.
i just felt a lot of the play calling was 5 step drops requiring Josh to read the defense and asking the Oline hold a pocket for 4-5 seconds. Vs get the ball out in 2 seconds.
think the wrs lack the explosion to get open I too would like to see mindless rhythm throw to get him comfortable Quick outs/slants jerk route from rbs Seems they need longer developing patterns to create any room

To be fair you have a rookie qb playing a much better team. He's being asked to move the team pretty much on his own Running game is non existent Easy chunk plays nowhere to be found He missed some throws forced some balls leading to two preventable picks and a sack or two was probably on him for holding onto the ball. On the plus side he looked calm and composed in the pocket. He didnt check one read and immediately check down regardless of down and distance. He fit or tried to fit some balls into tight window. He also broke away from sure sacks for just about any qb on several plays. The two really bad throws to me we both rolling out One to DiMarco that he makes a great effort to haul in and the one rolling to his left to Peters. Lets take a deep breath and watch and see I'm sure were going to see some bumps and knocks. People have been calling for a round 1 qb for the Bills for over a decade Give it a chance

Eli pick or fumble coming up
-
think you have to watch tape to see his impact if any DT playing as a space eater typically dont register a ton of tackles. Pretty sure 40-50 a season is good at his spot Still 0 after two games isnt encouraging
-
hard to watch Eli. I figure Barkley will break one of the next 20 checkdowns into a big play
-
Certainly more hopeful after watching half #2. Defense woke up, KB even caught some passes including a td. Excited to see the progress Josh makes. Almost wish the Bills would just go hire a good retired qb just to sit with him during the games and show him stuff, Does Peyton want to b a q whisperer?
-
I'm excited to see him progress and grow over the course of the year. Saw more good then bad. I'm very hopeful we finally might have the long term qb
-
Lets just say they trade for him and give up 4th or 5th rounder. He comes in stays out of trouble and plays well. Then what? Who is going to ink that guy to any long term contract with guaranteed money. How are you going to trust he can stay out of trouble? I love the talent but what kind of contract do you draw up to protect yourself?
-
could happen if both sides get desperate enough Just a 1 year deal. It might make the games more watchable Today's Dez is maybe 60% of the guy he was in that three year peak period Never a great route runner but a physical 50/50 ball guy (though that was supposed to be Benjamin)

This is such a hard thing to do because comparing across generations is pointless.
Would Brady Succeed in the years WRs could get mugged and QBs could get hit?
Debatable, lot of the stuff they run now you could not do then because of all the contact with receivers All that quick timing short stuff would have been very tough to consistently do back then

the Browns Julio Jones deal looks even worse in hindsight Point is passing on a elite prospect that has a much higher % of hitting is easier than throwing darts at board

Arguably that seems to Beane's stregnth, trading and negotiating draft picks. It would be good to have 5 or 6 picks in the first two rounds.
Need some top QB's to emerge for 2019 if they want to trade down
and do a better job with the haul than the Browns This is what the browns ended up with in the Wentz deal Ugghh is there even two decent starters in that list?
Corey Coleman
Shon Coleman
Cody Kessler (Since traded for a late round pick)
Derrick Kindred
Spencer Drango
Ricardo Louis
Jordan Payton (Since released)
Jabrill Peppers
Deshone Kizer (Since traded, along with picks, for Damarious Randall and picks)
Denzel Ward
Chad Thomas -
Rules were not there to protect the qb Its easier now Brady doesn't have to worry about Dick Night Train lane trying to cripple him on every down Also WR get free run of the field Back then you could shove the wr around all over the field and then Ronnie Lott could come over and decapitate the receiver. Marino's 48 tds in 84' is ridiculous when you compare the eras
-
There are some good young trench players in FA They have money to make a few long term FA investments and dont have to do it all in the draft Just make sure they continue to add several quality grade starters each draft. Its well worth a top 5 pick to get a elite LT/pass rusher/shut down corner
-
prediction we sign Devin Funchess in FA Cant have too many panthers

I'm glad everyone isn't ready to jump in front of a train.
1 week in, less than 2 quarters for Allen and now half the fanbase hates McD? I just don't get it.
I have tons of hope for Josh, McD, and the team in general- but not today. The success (if achieved) will be in the subsequent years. The biggest surprise is that fans are now just realizing that, as I believe it has been blatantly apparent the whole time (since last year).
We can look terrible every week this year, but as long as Josh shows progress, I'm happy. Remember how bad the first years were for guys like Wentz, Goff, and Peyton, and how good the first years were from guys like Prescott or even RG3 or VY. There is no defined path to success with a QB, it takes all kinds. I believe Josh has IT, and will force himself to succeed.
Stay the course. Trust the process. Don't panic. There will be pain, hopefully followed by a long sustained period of success. That's the whole point of this, whether it works or not.
That's a good point and the qbs you mentioned (Dak, RG III, Vince Young) all had great play action from a strong running game plus RPO Each struggled once having to read coverage and make plays from the pocket was asked of them. They looked better early on because the line play was good, they were all athletic and able to make plays out of the pocket. If a qb can make plays from the pocket under duress early on I think bodes well. Especially if he has to make throws into tight windows and from we saw that is going to be the case till they get better play makes and the line improves.

Ravens fans are probably calling for Lamar Jackson I expected a 17-13 type slugfest This is crazy

Were talking about this after he's played less than two quarters of regular season fb. Wow just wow
Is anyone THAT upset being 0-2?

If the Bills second half defense show up week in week out than Allen has a chance to win some games Run Chris Ivory more
