You have to ask how many other teams would have nurtured Allen like the Bills did? I think most would have tossed him out there to sink or swim. He would have lived down to the draft guru takes. Players are more than talent. They are the sum of their coaching too.
Funny thing, I live in NH and never heard of the guy. But it's not surprising because prep schools are invisible. No one talks about them. No news coverage. They are in a bubble. I have no idea if prep football is good. I know NH high schools rarely produce D1 talent.
Haven't watched the entire game, but how can Cincinnati take such stupid penalties, as if Alabama needs the help? This is exactly what their coach was saying at the start of the game.
