Georgia Bill

D must win it for us now

They will

Peternan to the wall of shame

I'd vote no to the trade. We have to hold onto some semblance of loyalty/team chemistry, and faith in management, in order to be able to pull this thing out of the fire in as short a time as possible. McCoy takes some pressure off the budding Allen. Take him away and the whole thing could crumble. Draft picks, whether 1st, 2nd, or 3rd round, are all hypothetical future "wins" for the team, but often they don't pan out well and are thus just gambles. We'll be ok with the draft picks we have, no need to further decimate or gamble with what would happen to the current team.

Time for an awesome holy sh!t Josh Allen drive to win the game! It could happen...

They'll write it off to Minnesota looking past us to their matchup with the Rams Thursday night. Whatever... HUGE win for the Bills!!!

Half ain't over yet

Nothing about this stunner in the top news leads for todays games in progress on NFL.com home page. ?

Is McDermott the D-C (calling the plays)?

John McCain I know this has little to do with this thread, but it seems he practiced this move for his health care vote. No disrespect intended.

If he keeps this up they have to keep him as starter. I'll be rooting for him. Go Fitz! Gotta have a lil Swagger if you're a Buccaneer

Because no one has the benefit of hindsight at the time of the draft. Unlike posters ?

I miss Tyrod too. He can make a mediocre offensive line look halfway decent. He extends plays due to his mobility, and rarely throws interceptions. Say what you will, but without him we would not have snapped the playoff drought last year. And he also did not "lose the game" today for the Browns. I wish him the best of luck, and will be cheering for him to do well in Cleveland. I think he was underappreciated.

All the "Allen should start" hype came crashing back to reality today. As mentioned above he's not going to make a bad line look great. I totally agree that Peterman looks like our best bet for now to start. I am still a little worried that even he will end up on his backside too often with this O-line, but we are what we are at this point. Here's hoping that they start to gel (vs the jello we've been seeing).

I wonder how often these kind of deals for the QB's act as a de-motivator for other players. They might feel that if they are valued so much less maybe they shouldn't try quite so hard. When morale starts to slip, there is not a lot a QB can do about it, no matter how good he is. Of course on the other hand there are probably a lot of players (most?) who realize the best way for them to ensure getting paid as much as they can for as long as they can is to play really good ball. Doing so on a team that is consistently a winner is even better for them.

The issue with starting a guy too soon is, if he has a horrible few games, the haters will come out and tear him (and the decision to draft him) to shreds. That easily could happen when a kid from the country and a small school all of a sudden finds himself in the big city NFL media glare. I think that can screw with a guy's confidence, and mess up his game, at least for a while. And frankly, I don't see too many on this board having much patience before they start circling like sharks. It might be best for him to ease into this with some playing time, but not carrying the burden of the starter for a while. Also, frankly, we might be pleasantly surprised with what AJ can do for us in the interim.

Here's what I envision. Every time Allen has a bad game, we are going to be reminded that "we should have taken Rosen". It is going to go on for years, and it is going to get old. Here's hoping he can help us climb the big mountain and win a Super Bowl because honestly that's the only way I see the grumbling coming to an end. Sad.

Sooner or later the odds have to work in your favor. Let's hope its this time. Welcome to Buffalo Josh!

Aaron Rodgers?

That's why I was hoping he'd win the SB last year, so he would go out on a high note.

Tyrod Taylor - thank you, thank you, thank you. You helped us get that playoff monkey off our back and I'll always remember and be grateful for that. Wishing you the very best with the Browns (except of course when you play the Bills).

Didn't everyone start calling him "statue" because he got sacked so much, with no mobility?

Tough to say but, I'm pulling for the Patriots. Hoping Tom will decide to go out on a high, realizing the uphill climb that comes from losing both coordinators.

I'll be cheering for Brady and the Patriots in the SB, because I think if they win it is the best chance we have that he'll decide to go out on a high and retire.

a 3rd rounder with a conditional 1st, condition being he wins us a Super Bowl
