Was Drake Maye THAT good yesterday?

Can we hire Billacheat for next year?

Because you're giving him ***** for who he's beaten, meanwhile we are over here with wins over the dregs of the NFL. 

I'm sure this made sense to you when you were typing it, but this is nonsense. The Bills record has nothing to do with a discussion of Maye as a QB, and nowhere in my posts was I crapping on Maye. I was crapping on people acting like the sky is falling because the Patriots beat the Titans... were they really expecting Vrabel to lose that game?

 

Maye's time in the NFL is a small sample size. He's playing well against crap defenses right now. Am I supposed to anoint him as the next Tom Brady because of it? I'm not saying he's not capable of being a top tier QB, I'm saying in my opinion what he's done to date does not put him there at this stage in his career. There have been plenty of examples, Tua being one of them, of players not being able to continue to ascend after a promising start.

I have personally been impressed in Maye’s physical talent and ability to make big time throws all over the field and showcase his athleticism.

 

Tua’s limitations have been unfortunately kinda more obvious imo.

 

It’s always too early to anoint young QBs until it isn’t imo. CJ Stroud is looking like the gold jacket has to wait, and Jayden Daniels is giving Washington fans RG3 flashbacks. We’ll see how it all shakes out, but my money is Maye is closer to being the next Justin Herbert than the next Trey Lance.

Truly elite QB's don't panic when trailing. They embrace the challenge and conquer accordingly. They can beat great defenses and put fear into every opponent. Not to mention the ability to read defenses, readjust after defenses adjust and so forth. Let's see what he does in these types of situations.

The kid is good.  It’s nuts to boil success down to a single player with the most team dependent sport there is.   
 

Bills’ fans, more than any other fanbase, should know this to be true.   
 

The concern I have is that he’s getting higher quality decision makers putting pieces in place to give him success that won’t be his success alone but will be the team’s success and yet will be bestowed upon him.    Feel like we have been here before.  


 

 

Someone in another thread said the division goes through NE now. Ohhhh boy. Yeah maybe they're playing better right now and maybe they're in year but to go so far as to say it's their division is silly at this point. I hate that I'm writing in this thread cuz I'm sick of seeing all the Maye glazing going on. If I want to read how good he is I'll go to a Pats board or just watch earn or something.
