I was NOT team Allen I wanted Rosen if we couldn’t get Baker or Darnold. I was actually so mad they picked Allen I left the draft party I was at. I really didn’t think he would do much.
The Minnesota game changed it all for me and I’ve been all for him since then. I am not sure if he will be an all time great but I absolutely think he is talented enough to bring a title to buffalo.
this is where i was at; i was upset to the point of being mad. My buddy (a lifetime fins fan) kept telling me it was going to work out "Allen is near the top of that whole 2018 QB class" and he still says that to this day.
- I was ALL Darnold but i knew he'd be gone long before us (I still think he ends up the cream of this crop when it's all said and done but Gase will do everything in his poer to destroy him)
- Secondly i wanted Rosen, i had bought into the hype and intangibles the media was peddling
- Baker was an enigma for me, I knew he was a winner and a gamer but for some reason i kept translating it to JohnnyFootball 2.0
- Lamar was intriguing and i was/am rooting for the guy but history tells us ultra-mobile QB's don't have long careers for one reason or another and as someone said his Wonderlic score can't be a result of not trying, that will limit him as D's get educated and his talent won't win every game.

Let me ask you this. How many schools in the last 40 years have a great track record of NFL QB success? How many have more than 1 QB with NFL success?
I can count Standford (Elway, Luck), Cal (Rodgers, Goff), Oklahoma (Jury still out obviously, but maybe Baker and Murray)....and that's all I've got off the top of my head. Every other "franchise" QB is the only one from that school in the last 40 years. So there is either 3 schools that develop QBs or your standard for the school is 1 guy. 1. No school has that success rate until they do.
ok, ok, you're a dog without a bone here; i made a statement and you thought it was dumb. My thought process is; isn't it weird a school like FSU (a bonafide NFL talent school) has yet to produce a NFL successful QB and you responded with "what about the 1000's of other schools?"; i'll let it drop.
if i offended you or your alma mater, it was unintended

The Bangles aren't even close to the worst team. Their not even the 5 or 6 worst team. Not says they are a great team, just saying they ain't the worst by a long shot.
glad someone said it, lest we forget, they've played 2 3-0 teams and their combined opposition record is 8-1...

Such a tired point to make. Question. Has Wyoming? Has Duke? Had Clemson before Watson? Don't get me wrong, Jameis is a terrible face of the franchise, but it has nothing to do with where he went to school.
ok, so the history and size of the school doesn't matter, and we discount the schools contribution to NFL talent over the last 40+ years, then, you're right, it's tired.

Just watching ESPN First Take where Stephen A Smith and Mel Kiper were taking turns giving Jones a tongue bath.
I guess that's what happens when you play for a New York team. Win one game (barely) and you are instantly the best QB since Sims.
Meanwhile the jury is still out on Josh Allen.
meh - nothing against the kid but if Eli was in that game they post a more convincing win.
Jameis is who we thought he was regardless of who's coaching him.
honestly - has FSU ever produced a strong NFL QB? and don't answer Brad Johnson, we all know what made that season go...

on paper his 34.6 yards per punt average for the 5 sounds not very good your post elaborates how sometimes numbers can be misleading. Nice post thanks.
it's cool - i hope i didn't come across as an officious jerk; lots of troll statements getting thrown around and I try to refrain from responding if i think it was intentionally said.

The game plan on defense should be to get into Bradys face as often as possible...frustrate him. Offensive line I'd like to see them protect Josh Allen so he can go through his reads and run if he has to but ultimately keep the sack numbers low and I really hope we get Devin Singletary back I don t have a ton of confidence in TJ Yeldon.
Special teams Please have your best game to date Bojo had another bad punting game last week. Defensive or special teams points on the board would be HUGE. It's all going to have to click. I hope we smash em in the mouth.
Just curious, what's your baseline that is making you say this?
Bojo had 5 punts, 3 were inside the 20 and 2 were returned for an average of 4 yards. His average punt wasn't great but that's because he was dealing with a short field; touchback vs inside the 20. he was also dealing with the wind.
so 60% of his punts were inside the 20 and fair caught, the other 2 (40%) averaged 4 total yards. i'm not sure you classify that as bad when looking at punting standards.
now, if you want to change the NFL wide punting standards of 'inside the 20' metric to 'inside the 10' then that needs to be done across the board and look at all punters then.
I'm not insinuating he had a great game, but i think we need to temper ourselves on what we call bad, he did more than enough to contribute to the win and certainly wasn't a factor in a potential loss.
lastly, not on Bojo - the hold that called back the return TD was just that, a hold and it nullified the play meaning it NEVER happened, any 'what if' has no relevance.

i thought I saw that yesterday and was going to post it in the game thread but i was 4 beers in so i figured i'd wait for evidence.
I was thinking "what the heck did he think he was doing at that moment"

PED's from the TB12 rehab facility should take care of any cartilage damage; Horse Racing anti-inflammatories such as Pitchers take so they're ready for an aggressive rotation.
Edelman will be 125% (literally enhanced) for Sunday.

i thought about this last night, what if we sent out our 2nd and 3rd stringers to avoid injury, sure our stats would suffer but the potential save on injury would outweigh anything else.
as far as chance, we're not even David in this scenario, we're what filled in David's pants when he saw Goliath in the first place.

If Sweeney steps forward that is a TD.
just like that "almost" interception in week 1; if the WR GOES TO the ball that's most likely a completion and not even a close "almost" interception.
our receivers need to know when to go TO the ball IMO

*raises hand*
I saw it and was proud Josh was there, I'm not sure i'm believing Goff is there (his supporting cast might be making him better) but it's great to be a buffalo fan right now, am i right?
additionally, i'm not a Ravens fan but how proud i am of Lamar, i really hope he continues his trajectory, just as long as it's not at the Bills expense.
it's time for the next generation of QB's, if the NFL plays this right, it will catapult them into the future.

They waited till right until the season started I wouldn't call that getting out of his path. Not to mention the draft picks and cap space he's eating up. If there's a team that dodged this bullet it would be the Bills.
i understood, because of when the Raiders released him the cap hit was inconsequential, yes they lost some picks, i was focused solely on $$

Yeah but they weren't that smart. They did give up (likely to be high) 3rd and 5th round picks.
you're totally right Doc, i was focused on the $$

6? Really?
No joke, those Jets-Dolphins games could be epic. Desperation on both sides. Bad as they both are, the games could be really entertaining. (I'm assuming Darnold misses 7-8 games.)
i see 6 as their floor, if the injured comes back and they regain the level of their original expectation they may be able to squeeze out 7 or 8.
- Gase is a POS and i genuinely believe he's a mediocre-bad coach based on what we've seen
- their D is legit, love watching them fly around on MNF, it always appears they are full speed and hit hard
- Darnold is still a good QB
- Offensive weapons? they got em
- I will say Bell isn't what he used to be nor do i think he gets there but 80% Bell is still top 7 in the league
now - i'm not teaming with that SAR1 guy saying they are better than the Bills, he fails to see that the way that game played and the outcome defines who the better team is and by a HUGE margin. no amount of anything justifies losing a game where you're up by 16 late in the 3rd quarter AFTER you've gotten 4 TO's from the opposition.

I'd say it's actually good for rosen
1. He gets to play
2. 99% chance he looks bad-nobody will blame him
3. 1% chance he looks good-he's a hero
4. He gets injured-well at least he won't have to do this again for a while
would you willingly walk in front of a speeding car just to "get out of doing something"?
not sure that makes 1-3 worth it

for me it's Pete Carroll thus Seattle and they also had some very unlikeable players and the fans reached 'New Englandesk' for a while there; smug, uninformed and unaccountable. rooting for them in the SB was challenging.
