theRalph Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Schopp talks Bills in the same manner that one might discuss, say, constipation. There is no media personality, even on the national level, that goes to the extremes Schopp does in dismissing ANYTHING of a positive nature with the Bills and especially Josh Allen whom he despises. Schopp, that insufferable douch bag, used to have ex-QB now fine analyst Dan Orlovsky on the program regularly when Dan was down on Josh Allen. Now, Orlovsky is praising Allen and the douche bag is dismissing it with the notion that "nothing in preseason means anything" and no assessment is possible. With deepest apologies to all the haters, Debbie Downers, and the like, it must be said that Allen is meeting the eyeball test this meaningless preseason. It's OK to be optimistic, it really is. Mike Schopp, please bottle the Bills acid and STFU. And Bulldog, grow a pair and stand up to this idiot once in a while. 14 2 11 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAGA-Man Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 So, instead of whining, why don't you just wait until Allen is awesome in the regular season when it counts? Then Schopp won't have a leg to stand on. There is only one person that can stop the Josh Allen bashing and that is Josh Allen, it's all up to him. 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TroutDog Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I was a road-warrior today and listened to parts. He is just gross. It is possible to have an opinion and not be rude to someone who has an opposing opinion. His argument of JA’s stats is technically correct but leaves out the fact of who the receivers were, how the line performed, drops, etc. I’m not offering an excuse for JA, but if you’re a media personality, you would think you’d want to paint the entire picture and add in how he’s performing this year. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like The Buffalo News and Jerry Sullivan they will eventually realize he is bad for business, but by then it will be too late. Seriously try listening to Locked on Bills some times. Joe Marino is a professional. He is not a homer but he is fair and he treats his listenere with respect. Schopp is the radio host equivalent of rug burn. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chargers showed the formula. Just like with Tyrod and just like with Kaep, keep him in the pocket and he can't beat you with his arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Days Lois & Clark Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Schopp is an embarrassment to sports talk radio. He keeps changing the subject of sports to things no one cares about such as condiments on food, or way too much personal things in his dull day to day life, or he will asks Bulldog about his music interests, etc... Who Cares! I’d like to listen to Buffalo sports talk on my way home from work but have to turn him off quickly to avoid his useless boring rambles about nothing. The only reason to turn it on now at all is hope to catch an interview with someone who can actually offer insite about Buffalo sports. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And whether you agree with him, he does at least have some reasoning behind his thoughts. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t listen that much to GR but my take on the Allen pick is the far overwhelming evidence is guys like him struggle to become consistent NFL qbs. And the Bills aren’t exactly a model franchise in developing qbs. He has all the tools and has a great attitude. But as much as some people want to take a victory lap, a 52% and 67 qb rating doesn’t mean he’s made it. And while I have doubts, nothing would make me happier (and I assume Schoop because it’s not fun talking about an irrelevant team) that Allen proves to be the guy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the impression that Capaccio was critical of comments Drunken Fool Fahey made regarding Allen’s preseason performance. Shtupp was noticeably quiet about that, and a little while later seemed to be mulling over worrying about what others think about his opinions.
