Doc Brown Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 May all your wishes come true but particularly the one where you wish to host the Lombardi in a Bills uniform. For those worried the Super Bowl window with him is probably over I'm just going to list some notable NFL QB's who won their first Super Bowl after turning 27. Included only NFL players that are in HOF and/or were drafted in the top 32. I excluded the first five Super Bowls because they may have won one before their age 27 season if they existed. I also excluded Trent Dilfer because he's well Trent Dilfer. Roger Staubach - age 29, Bob Griese - 27, Ken Stabler - 31, Jim Plunkett - 33, Phil Simms - 31, Steve Young - 33, Brett Favre - 27, John Elway - 37, Kurt Warner - 28, Peyton Manning -30, Drew Brees - 31, Aaron Rodgers - 27, Eli Manning - 31, Joe Flacco - 28, Matt Stafford - 34 14 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Happy Birthday Josh! He’s only 27, and he’s still learning. The people who act like we are out of chances are just full of drama. I hate drama. Surround him with weapons and protect him. We have at least a decade of high level football to look forward to. Time will tell, and fingers crossed. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And players, especially QB’s, are just lasting longer and longer with better training and nutrition, etc. Josh can do that too, he just needs to adjust his style a bit and be more judicious in picking his spots. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great list, though, and point well made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This crap about Allen’s window is closing as well as the Bills is just that.. CRAP. Elway’s Broncos finally won his last two years in the league. Our window closes when Super Allen retires. That will be about a bakers dozen years from now. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the feeling that our front office in now smart enough to be able to find the “next Josh” without letting a couple decades pass. I vote YES on a smart FO! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Ravens you are discounting what he did. Ravens did it and replaced him following year and the success was all due to their defense as many Ravens fans claimed was wrong.

JJGauna Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Considering how raw Josh was coming out of Wyoming I’d say his window is just now opening. We finally made some upgrades on the offensive line plus another 1st round target. It’s time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 On Jim Kelly's 27th birthday, he had played only 1 year in the NFL and didn't play in a Super Bowl until he was 30. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
