  1. Duke is purely a situational player, who shouldn’t see more than 6-8 plays a game, in obvious passing situations. That would get him, maybe 3 targets. But those targets are in critical situations and create a hard matchup for the defenders. Think of it from a DC’s standpoint. Bills are facing a critical 3rd or 4th down conversion of more than 7 yards. Right now, you can be a lot more aggressive in going after Josh, because you know there’s a very low probability that any of the Bills receivers can make a contested catch in single coverage. With Duke in the pattern, that equation possibly changes.
  2. It’s a funny coincidence to see this thread and the Kelvin B poll next to one another. Duke fits the rationale for making that trade in the first place, and he’s delivered what’s been expected. But it’s silly to think that Duke can take McKenzie’s spot on the roster. McKittrick is much more vital to the overall offensive flow. When you put Duke in, there’s no guessing game in an obvious passing down. We’re going to throw to this guy and he will beat up your CB. There are at least 2-3 times this season I wish he was in the line up.
  3. Are you truly serious asking this question?
  4. Which cost the Bills an bonus draft pick for the obvious tampering behind the scenes.
  5. In all fairness, the rant was mostly directed at WEO and his inane points. You were caught in the flak because you appeared to agree with him.
  6. Nobody ever, ever disputed Allen’s arm talent. What has always been in question is whether he could effectively use that talent to be a good QB. The question still hasn’t been answered. Allen had that arm talent when Fresno State told him to take a hike, and it’s not like they were deciding among 20 5-star recruits. The arm talent was there after juco, and the response was the same from every Div 1 school, but one outpost. He then catapulted his talents to a 2017 Mountain West Honorable Mention title, behind Nick Stephens and Brett Rypien. (Even if people want to use his “Better” 2016 season as a barometer, he was still behind Rypien in the all-conference awards) And yet, we’re supposed to believe that after these amazing accomplishments as a QB, Josh Allen didn’t benefit at all from Daboll’s coaching, and if anything, Daboll is the one holding him back. The only time Allen started looking like a real QB is when he spent a year with Daboll. You choose to discount Daboll’s accomplishments with his Nuke Laloosh, but the rest of the league is certainly impressed.
  7. Leading in-house candidate, not leading candidate. Your help didn’t matter BTW, because you disputed the notion that Bill would even consider bringing back the assistant of the water boy to the videographer.
  8. He was, if you believe little men outside your oversized opinion It doesn't matter who decided to pull Hurts. The important factor is that the true freshman QB was ready to lead his team to a title. Whose job was it to have him that prepared?
  9. And yet was the top candidate to replace McDaniels. Not bad for a glorified video quality assurance assistant.
  10. I'm guessing that's why Darth Hoodie had him on the short list to return for that assistant TE job when McDaniel was about to flee. Love the characterization of Allen being a stud now, after he couldn't land a spot at his favored second tier Div 1 school, and after a less than stellar juco career settled for another second tier Div 1 school, where he certainly didn't light lesser competition on fire. I can't believe that the OC can't get a guy who still doesn't know how to set his feet, to be an AllPro in one year.
  11. I know The guy took a kid who couldn't consistently hit the broad side of a barn and turned him into a passable NFL starter in over a year, but it's his fault that Allen isn't Montana yet.
  12. Or Pellisero or Mary Cay Cabot? Whether you want to admit it or not, but the rest of the NFL, and the guys who sign coaches' paychecks seem to think that Daboll has done a remarkable job with Allen, considering where he started and what he was given.
  13. It would be worse to lose Daboll than it was to lose Pettine to the Browns.
  14. Spectacularly bad. He overpaid for the position, and the player rewarded him by playing worse than he did in Carolina. I see the rationale for the trade, but the execution was awful.
  15. That is correct. But a key takeaway is that the passes weren't close from 2 separate QBs, which should give more room for questions. Another takeaway is that Foster didn't have nearly the separation you'd expect from the fastest guy on the team. Yet, the guy who is slightly faster than molasses was usually at least 1-2 yards from the covering DB.
  16. Why did you feel the urge to inject your "opinions" into yet another subject that you're clueless about?
  17. There is no passenger train from Scranton to NYC right now. So the question remains, what do people do when this magic train reaches Scranton?
  18. Meaning you're talking out of your ass again by not understanding the terrain and logistics of building a new high speed train line to transport maybe 200 people a day from Binghamton to NYC.
  19. On whose property and who will pay for it? How will it cross the Poconos and Watchungs?
  20. Yeah, that's worth putting up billions for 1/4 of that distance. How would this magic train cross PA, NJ and enter NYC?
  21. Bills at Texans - 4:35 PM Saturday
  22. Tiny moral victory is that Jets dropped 2 spots in draft order to No. 11. Sadly they have the weakest SoS of the 7-9 teams, and didn’t drop into the mid round.
  23. I wouldn’t call two key players leaving in walking boots, minor.
  24. Why do we even need a gunner with Bojo’s punting lately?
  25. Of course they want Trump to denounce this brand of anti-semitism. Because then they will get to call him a racist again.
