White Linen Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I hope this kid keeps progressing and becomes an excellent QB - because he's got all the other stuff needed to be loved for a long time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatdrought Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I always wonder if pro players wish for a minute they could strap up and play a game like this... be a man among boys. It’d be fun to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rochesterfan Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 (edited) I just love the fact that there was no media present - so it is not designed to be a photo op. It is real. I also love two small schools - typically groups that get ignored by high level players and here is a QB on his bye week making their entire year. GREAT JOB!

folz Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 That's great! You've gotta love this kid!!!! So happy the Bills got him instead of any of the other 4 QBs in that draft. No knock against the other guys, but Josh is soooo Buffalo! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" I suspect, though, that it's still something he chose to do, and it sounds as though he really got into it: "Alden will recall Motz asking Allen “how is his head (feeling)?” along with Allen reciting the Bulldogs’ team creed with players. ..... Burgard players will remember Allen joining them in a circle in the locker room and jumping up and down, reciting the team’s chant “Dogs in the dog pound, woof!” .........He told them he did well academically in high school but wished he did better in college, where he changed majors. Allen also provided some inspiration to those who didn’t remember he had to take the junior college route to Division I because he wasn’t highly recruited coming out of high school. “It’s how much you want it, how bad you want it,” Allen said. “There are different routes to the NFL … it’s not about the destination. It’s about the journey to get there.” " So yeah, it was a PR-arranged appearance, but done in a way that focused on the HS players and the kind of stuff that means a lot to players, not on media and photo ops. Still a cool thing to do. And now we know how Allen usually spends his Friday nights during the season ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JESSEFEFFER Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Josh is getting better and better at being Josh Allen, franchise QB. It's like a real good politician, winning voters one handshake or hug at a time. It is smart to do this for a game involving smaller BPS and suburban schools, imo.

Or maybe that's the difference between growing up in Firebaugh/Wyoming vs. East Brady/Miami. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d be fun to watch. There probably isn't a kid on either team who could handle the heat on Josh's passes. He would be knocking those kids down with the ball and the ball would be doinking off their helmets. But yes, that would be hilarious to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
