    Im a newer football fan, but came across this Josh Allen draft reaction. Was everyone really upset when he was drafted?

     



    There were concerns about a colege QB who has never thrown for more than a 56% completion percentage going on to the pros and doing what Allen is doing now. Basically Allen is well over 60% completion % as a pro, and anybody and everybody had to be concerned because he is an anomally

    It is with a heavy heart that I have to let you all know the doctors can’t do anything more for my beautiful wife. She had a massive stroke on Saturday night (on top of the massive aneurysm on Friday night) and we have decided to remove her air tube on Wednesday morning.

     

    This has taught me so much. First, how much I truly loved and depended on my wife. Second, how precious life is. Third, don’t say, do, or have actions that you might regret. Fourth, football is just a game.

     

    We all love the Bills and have different ways that we think they need to go, but in the end, none of it matters. Hold tight the ones you love. Don’t sweat financial issues, stay close to your spouse, and just flat out do the very best you can.

    I am sorry to hear the news....Hope you can find solice in family and friends. No amount of words can replace someone so close to you, I can only hope that with time you will be able to move forward with all the wonderful memories I am sure you have made over the years.

  3. Shakir is looking like a solid contributor going forward. However I do not believe he worthy of #1 WR duties and never will be.

    We need a tall, fast, top WR that will be cost controlled that can be WR #1b and can eventually take over for Diggs in a year or 3.

    But really the worst thing that made me pause was the treatment and threats to Bass. How embarrassing and really down right dirty low class. I haven’t lived in Buffalo for a long time, and this was the first year I didn’t make it back for a visit. So what’s going on up there? I would hope it was just a small sample size of fans who acted out like that, but damn they were a serious black eye on the mafia. Cant tell you how many friends and co workers mentioned how nasty Bills fans are this week, Buy the end of the eeek i just gave up defending and had to agree to a point. 

     

     



    Just like our politics, the most vocal and extreme get all the press.

    Just like the douche bags throwing snow balls at opposing players. I find it low class and patheitic... and as you say EMBARASSING!

  5. the reason we are not going to pursue Gabe is we want a young cost controled possible #1 WR in the near future. A player that be a #2 /#1b short term

    FA for WRs means over paying for good one or finding value in the scraps left over. If your QB is on a rookie contract you can overpay, but we are not that team anymore. Finding value for WR #4 and #5 in the scraps is ok, but not when we need someone to step up and force other teams to account. The only way we can get a stud WR worthy of catching footballs from Josh is to move up in the draft and find a gem.

    Diggs will still grab 80 to 90 catches in a down year, a stud drafted WR will only make the Bills better and by proxy will Diggs will be more effective IMO

    What our offense lacks is route technique and discipline.   This is why you get guys so close they could be covered with a blanket.  What was quite obvious in the videos is this.  What you also see is the absence of guys making themself available. How many times do you see Allen with the ball and EVERY receiver with their back to him.

     



    Yep... That is my take away. I always wondered why when we play teams with decent QBs that way to often they have guys with 2 yard cushions running across the field against our D... I knew something wasn't right but until I saw Kurt Warners all-22 i wasn't sure what the issue really was. Kurt really made it obvious now. Our WRs need to be taught how to run patterns more properly to create this space. 

    This should be WR coaching 101 IMO. To be honest I wonder if Kurt wants to coach because although I have seen other pundits show that Allen misses a open guy here and there I've never seen any pundit show us the consistency of what our offense is doing wrong in the passing game. You got to get guys running better routes and ceating more space for other WR's which obviously will make life so much easier for Allen.

    The question is can Brady scheme and coach this into our Receivers / RB / TEs, will the Bills brass bring in coaches who know these intricacies

    Even Jets fans have 1/12/69. 



    So I'm 3 months old on this date but if I'm a Jets fan that would fill the gap?  I do not think so... heck us Bills fans can point to our AFL chamionships, but that doesn't seem to fill the void for us does it?

    Nope I feel lucky we still have a team in the home town

    The new stadium says the Bills aren't leaving anytime soon. 


    Yes but there was a pretty significant stretch when we did  not know if that would happen. If the Bills did leave I would have ZERO interest in following football
