John from Riverside Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Anybody else seeing Colin Cowhard changing his tune on Josh Allen Something to the effect of "I didnt realize his coaching was that bad at Wyoming looks like a totally different player with the bills" Well Colin when you have An OL that looks like they are TRYING to get you killed No NFL caliber talent to throw to at all that cant get separation and drop balls that hit them in the hands Having to contantly play hero ball trying to keep your team in games The bills front office is very good now.....VERY good.

Foxx Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 1 hour ago, CodeMonkey said: This is still preseason, they can "flip flop" as much as they want still. But that being said, in the "dress rehearsal" preseason game 3 you tend to see the week 1 starters play the first half and maybe a series or two into the second half. So for the "start Allen" crowd, this is very good news. However, with the news that McCarron does not have a fracture means he could still be considered, even though he likely won't play at all Sunday. We'll know when McCoach wants us to know and not before 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troll Toll Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 6 hours ago, eball said: I'm not sure people understand what is meant by "vanilla" defense. It doesn't mean teams aren't running their own schemes and looks. It does mean teams are not specifically game planning for what the other team runs. There's a huge difference. What was reported by some of the Bills defensive players is that they saw looks from the Browns -- particularly in the running game -- they had not prepared for, which resulted in some of the big plays. For the 3rd preseason game teams typically do a bit of game planning, as they are really trying to simulate a "normal" week leading up to a regular season game. Of course, no team is going to show everything during preseason but this is going to be a good, true test for Allen against a better than average Cinci defense. I’m aware of the “difference”, I just think the impact is way overblown. Good luck gameplanning for 60+ mph heaters thrown with anticipation. I saw Josh on the tablet between drives, Bills will adjust throughout the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domdab99 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 If any of you think Allen is starting the dress rehearsal game just to see how he does with the 1s, you’re crazy. No coach would do this unless he’s expecting Allen to start week 1 against the Ravens. You don’t mess with the starting offense like that and then throw in another QB two weeks later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it could be argued that a healthy KB along with zay jones in year 2 and the talent of a guy like coleman and even the kerley addition is much better on paper at the WR position than what we dealt with for the majority of last season. I still thinks its one of the lesser corps in the league, but I would argue its improved at face value.

I'm convinced that last year was a fluke for Zay Jones. I think he does much better this year. I'm concerned about KB's knee, but he's already proven that he will play through discomfort. Lastly, regardless of which QB gets the starting nod, each of them will be more likely to utilize the WRs more than their predecessor did. I like who we've got at WR and look forward to much better production out of them this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pi2000 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Allen is what... 245lbs? For a 22 year old? I'm somewhat concerned about his weight... I've heard he likes to eat and eat a lot. Part of what makes him a special talent is his athleticism, ability to move around in the pocket and escape. Let's hope he can keep his weight in check. He has a very round face which means his natural state is being overweight. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go "out on a limb" right now and say the only way Allen isn't starting in Baltimore is if he sustains a significant injury that keeps him out of practice.
