He went on to explain that the Bills could never recover from losing to a ROOKIE QB in the playoffs. I I know Nick Wright is as popular on here as anal leakage, but you have to watch him more to get past the click bait his show does. If you watch his tiers today, he does give Buffalo respect. Sure he keeps up his cutesy language like "magic mountain Josh", but if you watch him more, you realize he does respect and fear 17. He knows if 17 brings his A game, he can take down 15.

He went on to explain that the Bills could never recover from losing to a ROOKIE QB in the playoffs. I would like to point out to Nick that: * The Chiefs are under every bit as much pressure as the Bills since along with the Bills they were projected as the lead Super Bowl contenders in the AFC. * And should the Bill's lose Saturday night, and I don't think they will, it will not be to a rookie QB. The loss will be to the greatest coach in the history of the NFL. * Allen is 25 years old and in his 4th season. If they lose it will only make him hungrier next year, Ditto for McD & Bean who are both young and at the start of a long & successful run in Buffalo. To suggest a loss would destroy Allen's career and the Bills franchise is delusional. * I would submit that the team and QB facing by far the most pressure this weekend are the LA Rams and Matt Stafford. The Rams have traded away their future to win a Super Bowl NOW. And Stafford is nearing the end of a long career where he has NEVER WON a playoff game. Should Arizona knock the Rams out of the playoffs and Stafford not play well that would have a bad impact on the QB and team going forward.

BUT sometimes his takes are so stupid and so plainly designed to rile up a fan base that you just have to laugh. The simple fact is that the team and QB who are under the most pressure to win this weekend are the LA Rams and Matt Stafford. And no other team or QB is close.

goober Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 3 hours ago, Ray Stonada said: Pretty funny from this morning's New York Times (gulp!): "The Patriots’ offense is more of a family SUV than a sports car, and while the rookie quarterback Mac Jones keeps his hands at 10 and 2 o’clock and signals before every turn, he’s not quite ready for rush hour on the turnpike. Jones’s efficiency rating on passes of 15-plus yards downfield of 58.4 ranks 27th among starting quarterbacks, per Sports Info Solutions. Force the Patriots out of their running-and-defense game plan, and Jones looks more like another Zach Wilson than the next Tom Brady." I liked the Steelers one too - "Ben Roethlisberger, who is expected to retire at season’s end, now throws and runs like a great-uncle playing a pickup game at a backyard cookout after three I.P.A.s and two helpings of potato salad, and the Steelers’ offense looks like archival footage of a 1928 Pottsville Maroons-Dayton Triangles game played in a vacant lot during a downpour." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunTheBall Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I don’t think the team feels nearly the pressure against the Pats* that the fans do. We’ve got 20 years of trauma forming our opinions of this WC game. The team has been very successful against NE the past couple years and were at least competitive in the early McD years. I don’t think they feel anything other than the normal stakes of a home playoff game and in fact I think they are pretty confident going into this game. It’s going to be won or lost in the trenches, as games usually are but especially playoff games. I’ve been very critical of the soft line play for most of the season. I’m happy to see that for the past 4 games, they’ve gotten on a nasty streak and you can see it on both sides of the ball. In most phases of the game they are peaking at the right time. I just hope Josh gets hot again even though he’s shown he can lift a team when the passing efficiency isn’t as good as we’d like. If that happens, look out because we are going to the Super Bowl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. K Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 15 hours ago, Generic_Bills_Fan said: Doesn’t seem to ever have to throw with much anticipation so he is impossible to evaluate…he is almost always hitting a receiver on a wide open drag or some other route 5-10 yards downfield. ‘ He’s doing a good job with what he is asked to do ‘ was just about the most positive thing you could say about him up until some critical afc tilts late in the season where he couldn’t even play at that level. not sure what the pats saw in him…I mean maybe I’m wrong belichick’s football knowledge far surpasses mine 😂 but it kind of felt like they threw an early pick away just to be kinda sorta competitive in the short term. They may beat us I mean anything can happen in a single game playoff setup…but there’s almost no chance they string together 4 wins in a row against these playoff caliber teams. I feel like a qb drafted in the mid to late rounds would be perfectly capable of what mac has been asked to do this season so it is a bit of a head scratcher. Josh was a huge risk sure…but the upside/potential was clear. I am in n o way shape or form a Pats sympathizer but from what I've seen he makes some pretty good throws, with anticipation and accuracy. His arm is nothing special but he seems pretty smart and relatively composed for a rookie. I know they are giving him game plans with training wheels on them, but I would not say that this point he can't become a good quarterback. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 3 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: Any game plan which focuses on Josh Allen not being the focal point of the offense is a bad one. Balance is good but a run heavy game plan or even 50-50 ratio is not when this offense is at its best. Hell, even a 60-40 pass run ratio is pushing it IMO. Eh. The GOAT of coaches considers it important so I’d say it makes a difference…. It’s possible to run the ball more than you like while still making Josh the focal point of the offense. Did you watch the falcon game? 11-27 3 ints- we ran the ball more than we threw. We won. A winter weather game in Buffalo….it’s unlikely that we will be throwing the ball all over the yard and have much success. Look back at our home games since November. How many “great games” did josh have throwing the ball? 72, 75, 91, 17, 83 qbr in home games since November. His TD/Ints in those games are 8/6. Our run game has carried us down the stretch…..ever since the NE loss. Go figure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
