Chicken Boo Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 With this regime? Only as long as Allen has a Diggs type of threat on the outside. Without that, Allen will be Phillip Rivers territory. Great stats, winning seasons, but ultimately go nowhere. A different regime could bring about different results.

Ya Digg?

I think the set up in KC is closer to Brady and NE. The Bills are closer to Rodgers/GB or Brees/NO. There will be a lot more ups and downs, but we will always have a chance vs. being the favorite. I think once KC loses Kelce they will be just like everyone else. Mahomes is great, but it certainly helps that he has possibly the greatest TE ever (after also having possibly the fastest WR ever). When you don’t have guys that can get open, your QB play all of a sudden drops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent post, Beane is living off of Allen because outside of Diggs the roster has no other elite talent. Beanie needs to get this team younger, too many older guys making big money that are not stars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think about Hill often because they found just as much success without him. Mahomes is much more equitable with the football. I think some of it is Andy Reid. Some of it is talent of the WR room. But I also think Mahomes does a better job of making you cover everybody more often. I don't mean this as a knock on Allen. I just don't think there is any more 1a/1b at QB anymore. It is Mahomes first with some discussion between Burrow/Allen as to 2a/2b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Anything less than the AFC Championship game this year with a healthy Allen and it is time to move on from McDermott with or without Beane. I know many on here think this is insane and I also know many agree with me. On paper this is the best DL and secondary McD has ever had, albeit a bit on the older side. On paper the OL looks as good as it ever has. For me it is win now for this head coach. He robbed us of one championship with 13 seconds. He was masterful last year dealing with adversity and he deserves credit for that. Now it is time to at least make the Conference Championship game again. If not I want Allen to have another head coach to give us a shot at a SuperBowl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew21PA Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 As long as Josh is here and healthy? Always open look I get it - but the same would be said for Mahomes as well these guys are so rare. Yes you want to load up your team but how quick we have forgotten before diggs josh Allen MADE 1,000 yard recievers - John brown and coke Beasley beat years of their careers people really need to chill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some fans are so soft... This is accurate. With a top 3 QB anything can happen. Need a little luck with injuries and need to hit on some rookies and first year players to contribute. Probably need your QB to take a bit of a hometown discount and probably need a couple vets to give you a Championship opportunity discount. So the window with Allen playing at a high level will never be closed, but it could be more or less open from year to year depending on the supporting cast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dudes get old fast. I know Cam Newton is not the most popular guy but he won a Heisman, Rookie of the Year, MVP, and carried a pretty crappy Carolina offense to the SB. Then his body broke down. There is zero guarantee on health. Additionally, once qbs get their big contract, it becomes so much difficult to keep contending teams together. the team is in a tricky place. You can’t mortgage the future but you can’t just assume the window is open because they shut really fast in the nfl sadly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffaloboyinATL Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 1 hour ago, Success said: The "window" is a myth. It will be varying degrees of open - but as long as Allen is QB, it's not closed. Agreed. As long as we have Allen, and Beane can figure out creative ways to build a competitive roster, we will stay in the play-offs, more often than not. That said, the team will evolve throughout Josh Allen's career, with different strengths and weaknesses, based on where we spend money, and where we try and invest less, and try and work around the weaknesses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
