I'd say more know the punter, but I can only guess Brian Moorman. I do know Spiro T was Nixon's VP,  I was in high school back then.

 

Another punter question, who was the punter that also played linebacker?

 

ez.

Paul Maguire.

What about his wife? Can we sleep on her?

Can we have a list of the players we shouldn’t be sleeping on? It’s tough to keep track of them all.

I am perfectly happy, no matter how poorly he plays, starting McCarrot for at least two years and developing Allen on the bench.

All jocks have hot girlfriends and/or wives. Why do y'all make such a big deal about his?

I totally disagree with this. There are so many times I see a players woman and wonder what the hell he was thinking automatically hope for his sake he’s taking advantage of being a star athlete and has a side chick... or 10.

ah yes, typical Bills fans obsession with mediocre QBs that are just waiting to be discovered for the Tom Bradys they are. We can't ever just draft a guy high, support and develop him into a 10+ year starter like almost every other team, always a stupid project that we know will go nowhere.

how about one year and i will send you case of Perrier ?
I think Allen Should sit as long as AJ is at least middlin'  for the Bills.
Have some real hope AJM can hold down the fort till next years FA stacked cash blitz o rama. When all the pieces finish the "Trust the Process " puzzle

Dumb, so we "stack" our roster with talent in 2019 and have to start the process of developing Josh Allen from scratch and will have wasted all of 2018 on watching AJ McCarron struggle to get us to 8-8 9-7 instead of letting Allen take his rookie lumps then, I just don't understand you guys

The only way you develop is by playing. Learning on the bench is a myth. And if Allen starts and plays bad 1st couple games and people worry about him losing his confidence then he doesn't have the mental toughness to be a franchise QB anyway.

You really have reading comprehension problems.

Almost every single response you give people has nothing to do with what their post was pointing to.

You asked if they had a good line that year.

I gave you the sack % with Dalton at #13, then said AJ would have been second to last on the league behind the same line, but included that it was a small sample size, so not that accurate.

I never made ANY inference that aj was at fault there, and said that I just felt they had a better offensive line than we will this year.

I then went on to talk about how tyrods mobility masked a lot of fault with our oline, and that I think AJ, being a pocket guy with less mobility, might get killed back there.

You, as usual, went on to respond with some random aj crusade that had nothing to do with what I posted.

We get it.

You love AJ and all things 'bama.

Try reading the posts you're quoting before responding sometime though, since you seem to fail at that.

 

It's really not even worth it with him.

 

When you make points he finds himself unable to defend, rather than concede it, he just mutates the argument into something you weren't talking about.

 

He's very good at reshaping the debate. It's really weird, this Alabama obsession. I mean that's how they are in that state so I get it a bit, but if he's from there, why the Bills?

 

Go like Dallas

Agreed.

 

My point is, if you called him a "dud" in his second season, then he went on to all-pro and probowl and praise 3rd and 4th....you might have a hair-trigger on your "dud" caller.

 

 

Again, whenever the guy says something that is flat out wrong, or he can't really defend. The argument mutates into something that it never was. 

 

So he was a dud and this guy knew... Said it in Dareus's second season, but everyone knows that means he'll have a couple exceptional seasons after that, but it's fool's gold.

So you're gonna take Marv Lewis' opinion on this? Marv Lewis? Really?

 

I'm gonna wait until he plays at least a few PS games before  I make any evaluation.

 

Brett FAvre  couldn't beat out Chris Chandler btw.

 

Chris Chandler and Brett Favre were never teammates. 

 

But I see one moron thanked you for your post that makes no sense... So let's roll with it.

Learning on the bench is good for becoming comfortable in the film room/prep/ mental side of the game. But no practice in life for any task is better than actually doing it.

 

Do you think a golfer is more prepared for a tournament by being someone's caddy or actually playing a practice round? 

 

He gets practice rounds, they're called practice.

 

It's a completely false equivalency. Practice rounds have no pressure, you can take different shots, try different strategies without the pressure of it being scrutinized and broadcast to the public.

 

It's very similar to an NFL practice where he is still throwing, trying to make reads, working on footwork and what not at a slightly greater pace. Rather than dropping back, getting destroyed, feel the anxiety of 70,000 fans. Getting the football equivalent of the yips, then having his break down in mechanics broke down and broadcast across the nation. 

 

I think some guys benefit from playing early, and others benefit from sitting a year. I think Allen might be a guy who benefits from a year to just focus on muscle memory without pressure.

Ok sorry, hope I wasn't too rude. They both were in Atlanta, so I thought you were just making that assumption.

 

Edit- On a second thought, Chris Miller makes your point so much better than Chris Chandler lol. 

 

And I agree on your second point.

My nomination for "Psycho-Chicken?" moment of the week

 

When were Brett Favre and Chris Chandler on the same team?

Favre:  college ball at Southern Miss, 1 season with Atlanta 1991, then GB

Chandler: college ball at U Washington, Atlanta 1997-2001, never played for GB

I think the Bills brass did a nice job bringing in 2 QBs that have great potential.  One is clearly physically gifted. The other definitely knows how to win though not as gifted physically.  There is a good chance that both of these guys can compete at a high level in the NFL.

There is nearly no chance both can. We have an ok chance one can.

Sorry, sorry....

 

of the 15 or so good QBs at any given time, odds are both the last free agent to fall AND the 3rd qb taken will be in that group, leaving just 13 to go around the league ;)

Nobody outside of Buffalo is excited about McCarron. He got 2 offers in free agency. Me, being the homer that I am, I think he could be a steal. But realistically he’s probably not going to do much

 

Who was the other offer from? I don't think I caught that in the news during free agency frenzy. 

 

And I don't think anybody is sleeping on the kid. He bet on himself to land a nice contract and a starting gig somewhere but ended up being one of the last available QBs to be signed. That tells me that teams around the league haven't really changed their value on him.

I had read that New England offered him a contract. But obviously he wouldn’t have a chance to start there...

Are you sure? From what I read on TBD he's a super star in waiting. Brady can't play forever.

Bills Today: Why fans should be excited for the QB competition   

http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/Bills-Today-Why-fans-should-be-excited-for-the-QB-competition/70bf0a3c-82bd-4c16-9863-da58f9de44e6

 

When the Bills traded Tyrod Taylor in March, Beane made it clear that the Bills wanted a QB that would become a franchise player. For Bleacher Report, the competition at the QB spot is a great way for the Bills to pick out that player, and it is something fans should be excited about.

 

So kudos to the Bills for getting a third-round pick in exchange for Taylor in March before moving on to a pair of intriguing young passing options. They got good value later that month for AJ McCarron. And then they craftily moved up in the draft to add physical marvel Josh Allen with the No. 7 overall pick.

 

McCarron's making just $5 million a year, and Allen is considered a long-term project, so there isn't much pressure on either signal-caller right now. The Bills would surely love to get back to the playoffs, but this isn't a Super Bowl-caliber team at the moment. The silver lining is that the Bills and their fans will get to spend this season assessing two high-potential fresh faces at the game's most important position.

 

and more
