Especislly considering at least Rosen is signed. 5 hours ago, aristocrat said: hasn't signed his contract yet. hopefully that's why he is there Use your noggins weirdos, do you think he came in early to put in extra work just to NOT sign? McBeane will sign Allen after they spend all that they can and Allen will take a smaller deal to help the team. ugh Edited July 18, 2018 by Threedollabills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it was mostly a joke about everyone at TBD being an idiot, per DC Tom's first law of dynamics. I guess it wasn't that clear. As a fellow idiot, I'll say that it was quite clear. And FTR, I interpreted the OP the same as others, that Allen is "there" as in "ready" ^ idiot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can't work with Daboll or QB coach Culley and there aren't any WR there for another week, he might be better off somewhere else, working with Jordan Palmer and some of our WR independently But if he has not signed his contract yet is he still constricted by the bargaining agreement seeing as he isn't on the team yet? That crossed my mind as to why he hasn't signed yet, because the way rookies a slotted there is not much leverage holding out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other guy finished his plan and there's no evidence he spent more than 10 or 20 hours on it. Both ways are just fine. If Allen is there, that's great. Where you do the work doesn't really matter, but it sure isn't any kind of disadvantage to be working at OBD instead of at home.

Edit: and still better than any starting QB we have had since 96.... He's played at a near-elite level several times during his career. Basically when the Giants had a really good lineup around him, particularly a running game. No, he's certainly not elite like a Brady or a Rodgers. But yeah, he consistently has played at a top ten to twelve level when he's had even a decent lineup around him. And top ten to twelve is what you need. Teams with a guy playing at that level stand a real chance at a Lombardi. Eli's good enough to be instrumental in your team winning a Super Bowl. Duh. If anything, he's underrated by many. 8 hours ago, Sky Diver said: I want a guy who eats, drinks and sleeps football and is laser focused. You'll get guys like that eight or ten or even twelve hours a day, maybe. After that, everyone has other interests. Including Brady, Rodgers, Unitas, Montana, and all the rest. Peyton spends a ton of time on charity and family. Brady on his nutty business and his family. Rodgers on his GF and visiting Sundance as he's a film nut and he plays guitar, and apparently a golf nut also, as the story of his funny remark to Josh Allen showed. Eat ... sleep ... laser focus ... those are the current cliches, and it all sounds terrific, but if it were actual it would be evidence of severe OCD.

If OP says "Allen is here" then we all get to wonder what in the hell our future QB is doing in the middle of nowhere California, you idiot. To be fair, Riverside isn’t as middle of nowhere as Hemet is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or actually any other QB ever in the history of organized football. Find me a QB who hasn't spent 10 - 20 hours off of football in the offseason and then get back to me. There is no such person, nor has there ever been. Again, as I pointed out, Brady has his dumb business and his family. Rodgers has his GF and plays guitar and golfs seriously. There is absolutely nothing to see here, except your apparent Rosen hate. Edited July 20, 2018 by Thurman#1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
