For sure. That 117 game brought his career qb rating up to 66!

Even with 30 ints, he still is much, much better at taking care of the ball than Barkley. I think some of you underestimate how bad Barkley has been.

Wow, there are some wild stretches in here. Too bad, he didn’t opt out. Could have gotten a free check.

I loved the pick and he’s a great dude but he wasn’t tearing it up prior to the injury. Not giving up on him and I love Stanford players but I think we all just hoped he was Kyle Jr and that’s not the case.

True but this is a big issue that gets glossed over. Barkley is great guy but might have the worst QB rating of any current qb. When he has to play extend time, he’s been horrible. With Allen’s style, there is a risk of injury. Plus, there’s the whole COVID issue. look at this like Pittsburgh last year. With their defense, they make the playoffs with average/ slightly below average qb play. They had awful qb play. Barkley might be slightly better than what they had and it’s not that big of a gap. There were better options out there. Jameis is making less money that Matt Barkley. Hell if Allen flamed out, maybe Winston becomes the guy. I do think the team was worried about getting a guy in here that could beat out Allen. I think that’s a mistake but I do somewhat get it. they have put together a good roster. But too often, bills teams just settle at the most position in sports. We have a bottom 5 backup situation.

Darnold was completely overrated in college but now he is underrated in the nfl. He would be really good on the Bills. And we would laugh at Allen on the Jets.

Why are you the way that you are? Get your juice boxes ready for the team mom.

If they screwed up the Allen pick, why should they get another shot to screw up again? It’s the highest drafted qb in franchise history. And if Allen isn’t a franchise guy, there was overwhelming evidence that he won’t be. The Allen pick will either be genius or completely idiotic. Nothing in between. im fine with McDermott because he at worst is a very good DC. But if Allen isn’t the guy, we need a new GM (even though McDermott gets final say).

Pete Carroll is the Guy Greggo wishes he was. Gregg sucks. Such a wanna be tough guy. He’s the type of guy his family talks crap about he second he leaves the room. He’s the worst.

I really like Milano and he’s a playmaker. But you need to have a limit for him. OLBs are easy to replace and I worry about him staying healthy. Love the guy but you can’t sign everyone to max deals.

As someone who didn’t want him from the start (love him being a local guy, know he knows a ton about football but his results absolutely suck), I’m already prepares for him to be the scapegoat if the offense struggles. he isn’t a good OC but at some point, players need to execute.

I literally forgot it’s training camp. Everything is so weird. I was someone who hated how much some fans overrated the meaning of camp. Now, I miss it. You never know what you have until it’s gone.

Happy for my Eskimo bro. ? not sure if he’ll ever be elite but he’s super tough and a great character guy who works his butt off. The team is better for having a guy like him. He should be a team captain. Congrats.

Unless it’s something major, I would l look to move on from home ASAP. He quit on the team in the playoffs. That’s complete BS. I would never have his back as teammate again (again if it is something serious, I completely take it back). side note, I won my biggest hockey bet ever betting the Bruins would be fired up and win yesterday. ? Much different story opting out before the season than in the middle of a playoff series.

This is the year D’Rick puts it all together!!!

That’s a good point. but it would be hilarious if McDermott became like Haynesworth, showed up 50 lbs overweight, and just completely checked out.

There wasn’t going to be a bidding war. It’s insane. But he’s a top 5 defensive coach so I’m good with him. Now he needs to make the offense much better and he will be a SB type coach and everything will be great.

You are the most sensitive human being on the board. I make a perfectly reasonable post and Instead of countering it (because I’m much smarter than you and you can’t), you try to make it personal. You loved the Jauron extension. You love the Fitz extension. You love everything thing they do. Which is fine, you’re Easy money. But you have no objectivity and are constantly wrong. And at no point have I once said he wasn’t a good coach. Stop being a soccer mom.

Yeah, this won’t have happened. Just like it won’t have happened with Jauron (former coach of the year). Or basically with any coach ever.

They won 7,8, and 9 games the 3 years before McDermott. You act like they took over the winless Browns or Lions. Also, we can debate how good that talent was, but guys like Sammy (2nd), Tyrod (3rd), Darby (3rd), clearly had value in the league and helped with the “rebuild.”

I would have seen how this year went and gave them an extension during the season if they deserved it. But it’s not my money so whatever.

Isn’t that more of a product of extremely low expectations? Like someone who has had sex in 17 years is going to think anyone who sleeps with is amazing. this is where some fans divide. There are some fans who never criticize anything and praise everything the team does. There are some fans who hate everything and are never happen. And then there are other fans who see what happens with other teams and higher expectations. The Bills not making the playoffs is remarkable in an awful way. Bad teams luck into the playoffs. The 2017 team was a bad playoff team and McDermott made one of the worst decisions ever with Peterman. Allen’s rookie year, they understandably take a step back. Last year, they got fat on a bad schedule and blew a playoff lead. I’ve said through this that I think McDermott is a good coach but it’s silly to act like he is like Bill Belichick at this point. It’s like when people criticize Allen for his passing because if you want good QBs play, he is below average. Should guys like that be celebrated because they are better than other crappy, former Bills? I don’t think so. The Bears fires Lovie Smith after going 10-6. So teams have much higher expectations. In the nba, I think the New York Knicks is a dream job because they have been so awful than just being average will get a parade. i think this year should have been the make or break year. The “process” should be completed and on paper, they have a much, much tougher schedule than last year. If they regress, it could be a huge red flag. But it’s not my money and we locked up a top 5 defensive coach so no real worries either way.

And that’s what great head coaches do. Obviously they have their strong suit on one side of the ball. But it’s becoming an overseer of the whole team. and if Allen is legit, McDermott will look great.

Who is arguing? It’s just conversation. Im repeatedly said I think he is a good coach. But it’s worth pointing out that our offense has kinda sucked since he’s been here. But now, there are no excuses. He’s well deserved on that list but there have probably been so coaches on that list that would be laughable now (Rex haha).

I mean the reason might be that Daboll just isn’t a good OC and has no track record of having a successful nfl offense. Jalen Hurts, SEC player of the year as a freshman, regressed under him and then became a Heisman finalist at Oklahoma. but I hope you’re right because the sky is the limit if they have a good offense.
