Who’s berating people? You’re the one calling me names because I won’t bend over to praise Allen. As homer, you’ve (and formerly myself) have been more wrong than right supporting the Bills over the years.

Bright enough to get paid millions to play a sport.

I’m just trying to take a realistic view. I wanted another team to take him. This is very new for me but I don’t know how to just blindly support a guy I have serious doubts about. I know Allen will work hard and has great physical skills. I’m just not fans of these type of qbs. that said, 60%, 1.5 td to 1 int ratio (very low bar), and 230 yards passing. I believe those are very reasonable 2nd qb stats. Sick burn bro. And PM me if you want to compare degrees. ?

We could have not traded up for Zay and picked JuJu in our original spot in the draft. You really believe that? Come on man. It’s ok to love the Bills and Buffalo but also live in reality. Buffalo was Pittsburgh saying 1) we don’t respect the Bills as a threat 2) instead of playing for a SB contender have fun with a team that never makes the playoffs and 3) have fun moving from Big Ben to Josh Allen. we were a punishment. The only way you change the perception is to win and have Allen become a franchise qb.

I believe it’s not so much about Buffalo as it’s about: 1). We’ve been a bad team 2). The league perception of Allen isn’t close league wide as it is here Brown would have went to Green Bay if they traded for him. Qb and winning are the real ways you build culture. Hopefully, Allen will get there. Because I call you out on your BS? You’re completely delusional if you believed what you wrote.

I agree but I don’t how why we tried to pursue him in the first place. All we was get embarrassed as a franchise and have unnecessary shots taken at Buffalo.

That would be impressive.

Was I this big of a homer??? ?

I’m guessing our over/ under will be either 6.5 or 7.5. But I generally agree with you. There should be a playoff type run or Allen showing major signs or changes should be made. They still need receiving and oline help.

Yeah, that should be the plan.

I agree for the most part. He also had the best receiver in the nfl and has a terrible record against teams above .500 (team stat but still). its also interesting that Ebron was a bust in Detroit but became a pro bowler with Luck. Yup. And while you certainly can do much worse than Stafford, I hope Allen is either a bigger star than Stafford or a bust because you are kinda trapped paying MS that kinda of money.

In fairness, he never has a good running game. But I agree. MS has a cannon and great attitude but I always watch him and leave underwhelmed. this would have been awesome for us if the Fins did this.

Well because he’s 30! If Gore breaks down this year, will anyone be surprised? This is a family board sir!

I remember when I was real young, some goon who owned a card store traded me two Sabres (Ruutu and Puppa) for some rookie I never heard of named Hasek.

I still don’t get paying old rbs $3 million / season. Who is bidding against us for Ivory and Gore? And Ivory had some nice moments. still, I’d always go with the young, cheap rb with upside.

I would have predicted you would post this. But hope you’re right. For the most part, can’t you say this almost every year? Most nfl teams (without star QBs) are basically 6-9 win teams and little things can make or break your season.

He is Tannehill with a much stronger arm or a more likable Jay Cutler.

Yeah, we really showed him!!! 1) he is a POS that’s why I didn’t know why they were trying to get him in the first place 2) if this makes you upset, you need to grow a pair

Are cards even worth anything now? I spent way too much money on cards and I couldn’t give most of them away now.

Agreed. But some of the bigger criticisms of Allen were the mental part of the game. So obviously, he’s not a dumb person. But guys like EJ (28), JP (31), and Trent did well too and it really didn’t mean much. i was called the biggest homer on this board for years. I always wanted players to be good. I freely admit I have a blind spot to judging Bills players. I didn’t want Allen. And it had nothing to do with his physical skills or mental abilities. History says that if Allen becomes a successful qb, it will be a huge expectation to the general rule. I wish I could just join the cult of Allen and just blindly believe. Sorry but years of blindly believing and getting let down made me real skeptical. I’m need much more than 52% and a solid wonderlic score to change that. And as always, I hope the homers are right. You’re welcome nerd. That’s fair. But like the SATs, there are other factors for certain scores.

You played JV as a junior, huh? Sorry dude.

Why get personal by pointing out things I’ve done. Don’t be jealous. Have a rational discussion like a grown up.

By using facts? Doesn’t mean Jackson is better but he did make the playoffs and have a better completion % and qb rating.

Holy homer! Relax. Of course, it’s better than him doing terrible on it. But read his scouting report (and if you took off your homer shades, you would see some truth) and his weaknesses. https://www.nfl.com/prospects/josh-allen?id=32462018-0002-5600-29bc-8750224414bd Pre-snap game plan appears unfocused field reading is spotty Needs to play smarter and place higher value on the ball Anticipatory throws don't seem to come naturally so I’m glad he is good at tests. But seeing a Belichick defense is much different than knowing which vowel is halfway between C and P.

He had better passing numbers than our guy.
