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

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

More than worrying about Allen I'd go with whatever helps the O line. I think Allen if given any time will be competent if not even make some exceptional plays The line seems to either get overwhelmed physically or make costly mental errors that kills drives

Two things Josh should be aware of. His hard count so far has only hurt the offense Stupid linemen evidently cant remember what count they are going on. Second change up the count go on one more often that hard counting till play clock is near zero

I dont think they had any idea they would win 9 games last year That in of itself changed the dynamic of the rebuild by forcing Beane to make more moves to have the shot to draft a qb this year. I wonder what they would have done if Allen was gone? Which of the FA signings besides Star is more than a short term rental to fill the roster for 2018? Maybe the plan is to tank and they it right this year and get lucky and trade out to a qb needy team and land a bunch of help in 2019

19/31 2 tds 230 pass yards 1 int 60 rush yds and a td

Defense will do a lot better They had some stops early against the ravens but the offense just went three and out plus there was the stupid penalty during a punt. Then it all got out of hand

He might not last out the year if he keeps dogging it. I root for him to get it together One less need if he can at least be a functional #2 WR

that just reminded me, he should be used to catching fastballs

He's got to get it together or he will be out of the league or playing for vet minimum. Contract year and he's dropping everything thrown at him

He'd have to go to a team with tremendous stability or it would become a huge circus of distractions . If he ever signs to play again I could see him in New England. Honestly that guy is so polarizing I worry some nut would shoot him. Plus did he or didn't already turn down some opportunity to return?

PFF gave Allen a 80 rating

Well you have to help your qb which they certainly did not against Baltimore. The few decent runs McCoy had all got called back. False starts, plus the many drops. Whole offense was a hot mess. Plus the penalty on the punting unit that gave the ravens a 1st down Team cant overcome all of that right now. I think the Bills will have success running the football. That should help a ton to keep all the weight from being on Allen. Can't have 3rd and forever on each conversion. We likely lose again but should be more of a game (least one can hope)

3. I disagree For the most part he was on point even in pre season 4 . Benjamin needs to catch with his hands Yeah it was a bullet but KB tried to catch it with his gut Your a professional football player playing WR Go sit on the juggs machine, no excuses for body catching football rest I agree with

Well if there is any hope for this team being even moderately competitive it starts Sunday. KC's defense sucks. Chargers offense might have a tougher time away against the Bills So maybe if we can keep drives going it can at least be a watchable game. Heck if we just even move the ball a little its progress, lol

Billy Joe Playbook but we have some many fine choices, lo

Gotta keep the door open for the Peterman project. I think he's undermining Allen's development but no just saying this is our guy and lets go get it done That's just me

well were going to need a #2 qb beyond this season as well. Matt Moore seems a decent option. No young players, you need a guy that can prepare with minimal snaps during the week and can offer some guidance on the sideline

bring back the delay middle screen Gailey liked to run Allen can see over the line where they couldn't run that play with Tyrod Find creative ways to get Shady the ball in space. Take some shots downfield when given the opportunity get more out of the TE's Croom looks promising, design some plays to get him the fb More crossing routes/slants/jerk routes

Titans, Cardinals, Browns, possibly Cowboys
