WIDE LEFT Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 So this genius calls into Sal’s show this morning with this wonderful take. “Before the trade deadline Bills should trade for a QB”. His reason - Josh Allen needs competition so he doesn’t get too comfortable & and doesn’t get too careless ie turnovers. Initially Sal thought this was a joke, but no, our caller was serious. When he picked himself off the floor, Sal pointed out that JA was having an MVP like season. But there is so much more wrong with this take. Let’s start with the fact that what team with a QB good enough to give Allen competition would trade that guy. Who is this great QB that could threaten Allen, but doesn’t start for his own team. Unsurprisingly our genius caller did not name a candidate. You have to wonder how long this guy waited on hold to share this wonderful idea. 1 18 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoPoy88 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Seems sorta par for the course for talk radio callers. 5 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'm Spartacus Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I wish we would have gotten a better back up QB than Kyle Allen though. He scares me if Josh goes down with an injury. 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearNorth Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Not to mention that yesterday Stafford, Cousins, Tyrod, and Pickett all got dinged, and wouldn't be surprised if Cousins and Tyrod are done for the season [might be career ending for Tyrod].

Big Turk Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) The more you listen to sports radio, the more you realize that if you are of above average intelligence, it will be exceedingly hard to think like the majority of callers who call in and try to make sense of their "logic" since it makes no sense other than to people like them...which unfortunately, are a lot of the American population these days. Sometimes I listen to people calling in and I just can't even get myself to a spot where any of what they said makes any sense whatsoever...but the problem is, trying to explain to them why would leave them with glassed over eyes and not understanding what you are saying anyway, so the best thing is not to even bother saying anything to them and just move on 😂 Edited October 30, 2023 by Big Turk 1 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QB Bills Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 That was me and I stand by my call. Josh knows he's got zero competition back there. It was different when he knew trubisky or keenum could take over at any time and do as well or better than he did. So he had to keep his head more in the game. Now he's free to galivant at celeb parties and golf on off days instead of watch film or sit in the cold tub. I wrote a letter to the Bills detailing this also. I'll report back once they reply. 1 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) There have been a few bad ones already this morning. Sal was on a heater a few minutes ago about a tweet he got related to wanting any defensive player over DHop (paraphrasing).

Yeah, well they cut me off before I could suggest they bring back Brian Brohm. He never got the chance he deserved. They bring Brohm back and Allen is on borrowed time... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes you can just look at the thread topic, who replied and you don't even have to read them sometimes. 😉 PS. This wasn't directed at you.

They’re just waiting for you to stop talking so they can talk again. I used to like debating when I was younger. Now once I realize the person is incapable of listening or understanding I bow out. Not enough time on this planet for that type of shenanigans. One of the reasons I refuse to debate certain topics ie religion, politics, etc. they don’t want to hear a counter to their points. It’s rare to find someone that disagrees with you that will actually listen and discuss hot buttons.

I suspect that shows like that actually want people to call in with ... let's just say "unconventional" ... ideas. It probably increases ratings by making the other listeners feel good about themselves by comparison, in the same way that everyone on The Simpsons (except Lisa) makes us feel good about ourselves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
