There's just something about him that screams lack of fire/determination to be great. Maybe I'm biased, or maybe it's because I watched him become the definition of Charlie Checkdown last year That was the knock against him coming out of college. Seems harsh that because a guy is quiet and an introvert it’s a bad thing but sometimes you do need to be the leader to get in your teammates’ faces. Personally, I’d rather play with a guy like Herbert than a dude like Marino who just would constantly scream at everyone. Allen has the perfect blend of fire and leadership. Honestly, I’d like him to get in Diggs face more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorned Fantasy Owner Idk about that. I give him a lot of credit for the way he finished that Chiefs game last year with I believe it was fractured ribs. Showed me something there as far as guts and wanting to win. He almost brought them back, too. I think some of his checkdown issues stemmed from that. I do agree there seems to be something "missing" with him though. Edited July 25, 2023 by BuffaloBillyG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He loves to sling it when he is physically able to. Let's hope these guys take a bite out of KC this year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I omitted from my first post when complaining about fantasy football, but yes, you have to acknowledge Herbert was dealing with a painful rib issue for parts of last season. Not saying he's not tough 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 IMO Burrow deserves $310M/5yr then........and all guaranteed and up front from "Money Bags" Mike Brown. https://clutchpoints.com/bengals-news-cincinnati-owner-pact-joe-burrow-extension-negotiations Bills Mafia needs to support Bengals Whatever they are called to get their boy signed with just a $62M per year cap hit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you are going to do this for every top qb that gets signed. “Wow, Dan Marino is a steal!” and he is a stud but it’s funny how Lamar Jackson gets crushed for not winning enough while everyone loves Herbert. I'm sorry. I didn't ask. Just pointing out what Rappaport tweeted. Settle down 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use the range of is Lamar a top 5-10 guy, everyone loves him too. 20 minutes ago, ngbills said: Beane wizadry at work. Signed Allen to a deal that only he knew would be passed by others in the following years. Pure genius at work. Just wait for the Trevor Lawrence deal. and after Lawrence and burrow… just wait for that Josh Allen guy to reset the market 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyBills Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 (edited) 28 minutes ago, C.Biscuit97 said: That’s valid. But the chargers always get talked about as SB contenders every year and they barely have a winning record with Herbert (flawed stat but elite qbs who make this money should have better than a 25-24 record). I really like him but if Jackson choked a way a 27-0 playoff lead, he would be getting crushed. I think Herbert gets the biggest pass in the league. Forreal.. And he had 2 great- really good wr and 1 of the best run games But la has no choice. Next year that # will just go up Edited July 25, 2023 by JerseyBills 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is that funny? Lamont is just another “exciting” regular season warrior who always misses time and sucks in the playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingBoots8 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Burrow just got moist looking at those figures. He’s gonna get paid big bucks real soon. The longer they wait the more it’s going to be. Considering the ownership Involved, I could see Burrow miss time or threaten to leave if he doesn’t get that bag in Cinci next year 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
