Again I would say more of an unsung contributor as he didn’t even suit up for a few games.

 

But I see where you are coming from. Definitely was a pleasant surprise, especially in the 2nd half of the year

Agree to disagree. Kid found his hands to match his feet the last 6 games. He keeps that up and he could be just what a big arm qb needs to keep d’s honnest.

How is Josh Allen not in the "stud" category

 

He IS our offense.....if he does not make it then no offensive player should make it

From schoop and bulldog to the buf news to a bunch of posters here, the bar of success seems to be the very best of any QB in the league.  He has read defenses and react like Brady, move in the pocket like Aaron Rogers and have Drew Brees pinpoint passing precision.  Anything short of that is a "huge problem" that he must correct.  Apparently putting up 42 points with a direct hand in 5 TDs just doesn't cut it.

He just misses IMO. The bar should be set high for that position. He was unbelievable running the ball this year. Stud for sure. But the QB position is a lot more than that as we know. Depending on how he develops in the off-season, we might look back at his rookie year and see that he had set career highs in rushing yards and TDs his first season. And that wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing. Although, given the fact that he missed about 5 games I wouldn't be shocked to see him reach or surpass these numbers again.

Edit....I just realize you have no offensive players on the "Studs" sorry

Fair point.

 

I love Allen. Just didn’t include him as he missed lots of time and he had a few bad games.

 

But I do really like him as I think the Bills have found their franchise guy

We are talking about studs for the entire 2018 season. If this was studs for one game, of course he would make the list.

Studs: Hughes, Tre White, Hyde, Poyer, Milano, Hauschka (before injury)

 

Duds: Benjamin, O-Line minus Dawkins, McCoy (I get his o line didn’t help him much)

 

Who do you got?

Great post, I think Poyer took a step back this year. He's had a few rough games. He was definitely more consistently solid last year. 

I would put Allen in as a stud. He is our offense. 

 

What is your opinion on Lawson? I think he had a pretty good year.

he was over 80% of the offense for the games he played. He was THE STUD for the team for the year. 

Reason I didn’t include him was because Allen played I think 11 games? Could be wrong.

 

And 2 or 3 of those games he was bad.

 

But. I do really like Allen. I think we have found our franchise QB

Thank you sir.

 

Was actually going to say Shaq as well. Thought he had a very good year and took a massive step. Just was including the top 5 guys and I think he falls just shy of that

You’ve only been here since September.  Everyone else here is thinking “wow, DC Tom let him down gently!”

 

I've been around longer, but just as a bystander.  But yeah, this guy is terrible.  Like depressingly terrible.  I didn't think people that belligerently ignorant came out of the shadows like that.

And if he played the RB or WR position that would be a great thing. At the QB position though being 80% of the offense doesn't automatically mean you had a great year. You have to take into account more than that. Josh is on the right track. He should make this list next year as we project him to have more games like this one next year.

Yeah, you are flat out just wrong.

Kid, it’s an internet message board.  If he’s bothering you that much, you’re taking this place and his comments far too seriously.

Being called an idiot by Tom is a TSW rite of passage.

LOL. okay.

 

Why are you so defensive about Allen not being a "stud" this season? 

 

I mean a QB should at least throw more TD's than INTs on the season to earn that nod. Or complete more than 50% of his passes. The funny thing is I LOVE Allen. I think he is going to be an absolute stud for us in the future. But I set a higher bar than you i guess. Allen absolutely was as stud as a runner no question. But I'm sure he would be the first one to tell you he needs to become a stud in the passing game.

i think Dawkins was a bit of a dud as well. TEs, WRs, RBs, OL except Teller

 

but the biggest dud of all was vonte davis.

 

 

Studs: KYLE !!! ALLEN ! Edmunds, Milano, Alexander, Hughes and Lawson, secondary. Phillips honorable mention.

Ya I should have definitely mentioned clay. Forgot about that one.

 

I think a few of your studs are a bit of a reach but fair enough lol
