I don't exactly know how to qualify that but I will say....Josh Allen set the bar for himself at the end of last season and in the playoffs. For better or worse that is his measuring stick now. He hasn't played to that standard in some time. Neither has Gabe Davis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Just now, Mark Vader said: I'll put it this way. If Josh Allen played for the Patriots*, the sports media would be bowing down before him. We have been SB favorites for quite some time . The Buffalo Bills SB status and odds have been part of every nationally syndicated sports shows schedule for months. All of these talking head shows need conflict. Nick Wright has taken the role of the WWF heel for Bills fans and it plays off other talking heads. Skip Bayless loves the Cowboys and Brady, I don't think Shannon Sharp hates either. But somebody has to take the opposite side. I don't know what the expectation is, every show to unanimously anoint the Bills? I find Nick Wright annoying, but I don't think he is far off here. QB play has not met the standard that JA17 set at the end of last regular/post season and early this season. I don't particularly care if he is fellating Josh and I don't get the sense that the Bills have not been given enough respect by sports journalism at scale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's true that Josh Allen is not having the same year as he did as last year, and if that merits criticism, fine. There are people out there who do give the Bills praise as a team too. The thing is that when Allen makes a mistake it is highlighted and is pointed out every which way possible. Front page story. Mahomes makes a mistake, and it's posted along with the liquor ads. They don't have to gush over Allen and the Bills, just keep it even. They are not the only team and player that has made mistakes this year. 3 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heading into the Cincy game, if there’s a matchup we can exploit, looks like it’s our pass rush versus their O-Line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, anything that is a threat to Chiefs dominance sets him off. The man has argued that Josh is an below average QB and that Tua/Herbert/Lawrence should be in the Pro bowl over Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best chance for the Broncos to upset the Chiefs this weekend was firing Hackett. Now everyone on that roster is on alert. One of two things will happen -- they'll be super motivated, or go completely in the tank. No in-between. Don't get me wrong, KC is still likely to win by double digits, but if you're looking for straws to grasp... 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
