PFF are still clinging to their (last) hope that Josh's 2020 was an anomaly. Maybe. Regression from where he was isn't saying he's bad. He might be a a better more efficient QB but his numbers drop.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 24 minutes ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: At least they're on the list. It's hard to rank a top 50. It really depends what players at their positions are ranked higher. In terms of ability to impact the game, it's hard to put any position above QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is literally the first time i've even heard anyone mention Brown in the same breath as Diggs.... not sure what your aim is here. do you honestly believe that ranking is justified? thats a really weak hill to die on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't rank Brown over Diggs. I don't care about opinions. Why do people get sensitive when their favorite players are ranked lower than they think? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Brown? no way. and the fact that you even entertain it is absurd to me. It just looks like you have some sort of odd allegiance to PFF. thats the only way i could see anyone not just downright scoffing at that ranking over Diggs. Brown has absolutely no business being in that convo at this point. Edited June 23, 2021 by Stank_Nasty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen can have a 5000 yard 50 TD season but I think he will be a consistent 4000 yard 30 TD QB. 1 minute ago, Stank_Nasty said: I could deal with mike thomas being ahead of him. proven elite track record.

eball Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 Just now, Buffalo_Stampede said: I think he will be a consistent 4000 yard 30 TD QB I'd say that means your answer to my question is yes since those numbers are significantly lower than what Allen did last season. "Ceiling" is a player's sustained best, not one crazy good year. Let's just say we disagree about what Josh's "average" year going forward will look like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite weapons usually get more looks. That how it works. Anyone even entertaining the idea that Brown is better than Diggs cant be taken seriously. Good talk. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malazan Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 pff knows Bills fans get their panties in a knot every time they write something and don't say Allen is the best so they do it on purpose because they know a bunch of idiots will rush over to be outraged. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it's not as bad as their ranking for Allen. AJ Brown is a great WR, he's a better YAC and contested ball WR than Diggs. Diggs is more consistent and is more crafty getting open. Brown is a freak of nature athlete.. He doesn't get a ton of looks in that offense though for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushypeaches Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 What's going to be interesting is as Josh gets older and his athletic abilities start to decline (as to when he's just a great athlete for the position and not a FREAK athlete), how his game evolves. He's worked a ton on being able to read defenses and become a smart passer, and an excellent leader, so I think it's quite possible that his stats never again approach 2020 levels (especially in rushing), but he continues to be a top 5 QB.

Bangarang Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 So many hurt feelings. Why do you all keep going back to PFF for their nonsense when you know you’re just going to get upset? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 49 minutes ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: It can't be a straight 2020 performance ranking. Some injured players are ranked higher. It's just a top 50 overall, not 2020. Good point. The ratings would make sense if they’re factoring in things like consistency, longevity, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still have him top 7 for QB's. lol top 7 he was the best QB in the league last year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
