If he's a supposed "fit" for Daboll, that would imply the FO picked him because of that. Doesn't really mean he'll go far and it definitely doesn't mean he'll replace Allen. Expand Just relating that fans' particular take. I think Allen likely will be a franchise qb. I'm a UGA fan, so I like Fromm, but I don't think he's in the same talent category as Allen. He is bright and a natural leader.

I think it did play a factor in the Bills coming back. Expand When he pulled up limp breaking up a pass, I was quite happy. He was having a tremendous day
SCBills Posted May 8, 2020 Posted May 8, 2020 I think Fromm was a great pick. I live down south now and watch plenty of SEC Football and the guy is much better on the field than a bad day at the combine. That said, if he were the “perfect” fit for our system, I would think Beane would’ve made more of an effort to grab him, instead of simply taking him because the value was too much to pass up. That’s if we’re believing Beane to be entirely truthful about the selection, which I have no reason to believe he’s not. 1

Expand I watched him play a few times, and you're right, he is quite smart and he had quite a college career. And yes, Allen is a franchise QB for sure. I don't think the Bills have had a QB since Flutie get this much attention

He was having a tremendous day Expand For some reason Mosley gets fired up more for the Bills than any other team. I live in NJ so I get all the Jets news. Last year he mentioned prior to the week one matchup how he hates us. Says their is a lot of trash talking between the teams. He gave the whole "we hate them and they hate us" speech. When its Pats or Dolphins week their isn't a peep out of him at least not on the level that he talks about the Bills.
Bruce Harper Posted May 8, 2020 Posted May 8, 2020 On 5/7/2020 at 6:53 PM, Ecmic82 said: Bills were -3 in turnovers that game, but if I remember correctly the Jets “fumbled” on a wide receiver lateral on the last play of the game deep in their own half of the field, so practically Buffalo played a -4 turnover game. There were 12 games last year with a turnover differential of 4 or more, and the team in the negative lost all 12 of those games. Average margin of victory was over 19 points. it funny Jets fans try to find the silver lining in that game, when the fact is they were unable to do what literally every other team (even Jacksonville!) that was spotted four turnovers was able to do: handily beat their opponent. (and the Jets defense scored 8 points! Has a team ever lost with a +4 turnover margin and 8 defensive points scored???) Expand The Jets had one of the worst offensive lines in the history of the game. They have worked on it over the off-season but we will see if it is enough.

I think things are looking promising.

Technically you can say the same about Josh in Metlife he's 2-0 counting the Giants. Edited May 8, 2020 by Warcodered
buffalo2218 Posted May 8, 2020 Posted May 8, 2020 (edited) Well, if they're gonna say Darnold is 2-0 at New Era, then technically, Allen is 2-0 at metlife Edited May 8, 2020 by buffalo2218

Expand Pull up Darnold botching the snap in Miami and what he did after, then pull up Allen's botched snap in Dallas on thanksgiving and then maybe you'll see the difference? There's a reason we say Allen has more fire. We can also nitpick ourselves

Expand He beat the 90 mil dead cap Bills by 4 points, and then barely scraped a one score victory against our 2nd and 3rd stringers, with essentially zero of our first stringers playing,and certainly nobody CARING.
