Josh Allen Admits He Made Christmas Present Mistake


Since1981

Recommended Posts

Rookie mistake. I see a lot of newbies do this in a new relationship. Jewelry, vacations, expensive electronics. Then how are you going to match or top that every year 5, 10, 15 years later? You need to keep expectations in check. It's not a track meet, it's a marathon. Pace yourself

 

Year 1 = Applebee's gift card

Facts. You start with jewelry, then you’ll be in a Lexus commercial on your tenth Christmas. 😂

“I started off too strong” (gifts to OL)

 

Josh has made my life better and I smile when he smiles. Merry Christmas all.
 

What should our boy do???

Maybe this SI article for reference.

Apparently the trend has been customized golf carts to the OL by both Mahomes and Lawrence.

 

Josh gave them customized golf clubs a couple years ago and customized golf scooters (last year I think).

When the OP quotes Josh saying he started off too strong with his gifts to the OL, I took it that his mistake was starting too generous or maybe too thoughtful  early in his career, and now it's getting tougher and tougher to top that or come up with better ideas every year.  idk, maybe I'm drunk🤪

 

That's how I took it, for what it's worth.  I'm currently not drunk.

Is Purdue planning for bowl game?  Last time I chatted with him he was enjoying teaching CBs there.

 

He should license his name and compete with youtube.

Seriously, Dick.  I was thinking about this today.  We're ready to come here for eleven months with all of our brilliant critiques and suggestions, but in December, when it gets down to crunch time, when nothing else matters by the W, when every game is a big game, all the armchair quarterbacks (and coaches and GMs) go silent.  

 

I'm an armchair kicker, to be honest... kick my feet up and bit*h about and praise the Bills. :P

 

To be honest, this whole season is all about put up or shut up time and so far the move to Joe Brady has paid huge dividends. McDermott has to produce, point blank.

"Josh Allen Jokes Christmas Gifts Getting Expensive for Buffalo Bills Offensive Line

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen made sure to reward his offensive linemen with Christmas gifts, though he thinks a better plan may have saved him some cash.

 

"That play has reaped the linemen some rewards come Christmas time. Allen joked on Tuesday that his wallet took a hit.

 

“It’s getting a little crazy now, so I gotta, I think I started off too strong,” Allen said. “I think I should have continued to casually build my way up, but they deserve it.”

 

There’s no word on what Allen had in mind just yet, but one-upping last year’s gift – personalized scooters – may be a challenge. For keeping Allen healthy, there isn’t a price too high to pay."

OL bought Josh a bat mobile golf cart? 

 

In other news McD let go of Morse today. Spencer Brown was moved to the practice squad. Rumor is it wasn’t a great day to be around the practice facility. More to come….

I think it was the Chargers game where Romo and Nance were talking about the golf carts Mahomes got his o-line then mentioned Easton Stick's wife made his o-line cookies for their gift.

Imagine that they'll expect when the extension really kicks in next year.   Each of them could easily ask for a nice house in Orchard Park. 

 

I mean... I don't know what the madden cover athlete and face of gillette make - but I'd imagine its quite a bit.  I don't think he's hurting for cash.

So what did he get them?

He set the up with 15 minutes each with Taylor Swift in a car behind a local Cheesecake Factory. 

 

No, wait, I'm hearing now that was Baker Mayfield's gift to his OL. And it wasn't Taylor Swift. It was Lizzo.
