Have you ever played football? You are jacked after a big hit. He probably didn’t see the slow motion replay to see he hit him the right way.

If you didn’t complain about Cam Newton taking these hits, you shouldn’t complain about Allen. That’s the issue with running qbs. They don’t get those calls as much as pocket passers.

Honestly, he’s pretty much what I expected him to be. It’s going to a roller coaster. Some fans tried to overlook some of the questions about him coming out that are very valid. Right now, running is too much part of what makes him an effective qb. He won’t last in this league if he keeps this up. I did see some nice things in first few games but there is never really any consistency and I’m not sure there will ever be. Luckily, we have a great defense that never makes him win games and hopefully the highs outweigh the lows.

A 67 career qb rating is pretty awful. I think you would be hard pressed to find a qb with that many starts with a worse one. That said, our defense is awesome and he just needs to not lose the game if he plays.

Tennessee has played a much harder schedule. Honestly, I have no idea what to think of the Titans. Every time I think they suck, they win. Every time I think they might be ok, they lose. This game is a coin flip but the good thing is it will be like a home game with all the Bills fans there.

Not trying to defend Zay but I do wish there was more information on that stat. Not all catches are the same. Beasley gets a lot “easier” catch opportunities than Zay.

Wasn’t a huge fan of the signing but he looks awesome. Great pickup.

Allen plays the way I wanted EJ to play. Allen has a great attitude but I do think some fans are too willing to overlook the very serious concerns that “haters” had about him. At this point, running is too much a part of his game. Teams might not be able to do it as well as NE but the game plan on Allen is out. Hopefully, he adjusts because I did see some nice things in the first couple of games.

God, it was so embarrassing. Fans were still bitter because he didn’t smile when he got drafted (he never smiles). They laugh at NE for giving him that money and he’s the best cb in the nfl. theres a world where the Bills keep Gilmore, draft Mahomes and JuJu/ Kupp, without giving up picks to trade up. Oh well.

Agreed but EJ was benched with 5 tds, 3 ints and an 80 QB rating (Allen has a 69 right now). I actually had flashbacks of what would happen if Barkley looked good and won the game. But you obviously are riding with Allen this year and he plays the right way. I just hope he gets smarter with the ball without losing all of his aggressiveness. I agree. I think if you draft a qb in the 1st, you need to give them at least 2 years as a starter.

He also signed Incognito and Antonio Brown. this guy shouldn’t be in the league. He would be amazing back in the day where the players weren’t really athletic so they just tried to injure each other. He would have been a HOF in the 70s. They do they when Cam Newton takes those hits.

JuJu would have overpowered his brother and jumped out of the window and landed on his feet.

I saw the Diggs thread. I just got to ask. Why would a team that has SB aspirations trade a really good wr? I’d love Diggs, I just don’t get why it makes sense for Minny.

Look Hughes is far from a problem with this team but at some point, can we stop making excuses why he doesn’t get sacks or make more impact plays? All great pass rushers get held. Aaron Donald gets tripled teamed. This D is an elite pass rusher away from being one of the best groups in Bills history.

NHL regular seasons are so bad. Every sport besides football should shorten their seasons.

Strong take haha. I’m sure every fan base has a player they feel that way about. The Eagles had a backup cb who got murdered by Adams on Thursday. He was really bad.

It’s awful to play defense in the nfl. With the way Allen was playing, folks really think the Pats wanted him out? It ended up being a dirty hit but it looks a million times worse in slow motion. It’s a physical game and dude is flying to make a play. I don’t believe that was his intention and he should be fined. But thats the danger in running the ball for a qb. It also seems like some karma from some “fans” who wished injury on other players on this board.

My only counter to that would be is Allen benefits from one of the best defenses in the nfl. Allen would have much worse W/L if Arizona drafted him. Allen gets more chances to “win” games because the D is awesome (?). Thats what makes what Mahomes is doing even more amazing. His defense is terrible and he just lights up the scoreboard to overcome them. I don’t want our defense to give up points but I’d love to see a game where Allen wins a shootout against a good qb.

He’s 42, won 6 SBs, just beat the Bills like always, and played awful. Literally, I don’t think he really cares and it’s all about the playoffs at this point of his career. He’s on autopilot and trying not to get hurt.

I don’t hate the guy. He belongs on a nfl roster. But when you trade up for a guy in the 2nd and pass on JuJu and Cooper Kupp, it looks terrible to see how unproductive Zay is. He has no elite skills. He is a dime a dozen NFL receiver who was drafted by us because his college coach was on the Bills.

I think it was stupid how early we gave up on EJ. You draft a guy in the 1st, you need to ride with him. I think Allen is a lot closer to EJ than Tom Brady at this point. that said, a big part of EJ’s problem was he played like a robot. Allen, who I have been critical of, lays it all on the line and goes down firing. I respect that.

I’m just amazed that some people have convinced themselves that Barkley isn’t anything but a journeyman. There’s a reason he has a 68 qb rating. that said, he is probably better at reading the field and making quick decisions than Allen.

This has happened to Cam Newton like 20 times in his career. It’s why running should never be a franchise qb’s best skill. Look at Newton now. Allen simply needs to become a better pocket passer. I love his guts and toughness but he will not last doing this.

It’s much harder to do it in football but you are right. As entertaining as it is, it does kill the small market teams. at the same point, this is the same league that cuts you when you get hurt and doesn’t owe you anything. They need to something fast about the CBa.

Man, I really like Michael Robinson. He is awesome at his job!
