He's been a great compliment to our big three. Gets open and has Velcro hands. Guy looks legit.

Unpopular take here...Tre is playing very meh
TheBrownBear replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think it's more about the need for the opponent's offense to play more aggressively when Facing a prodigious offense. -

TheBrownBear replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
We played well for a half and then its like we hit a wall and had zero in the tank. I'm guessing a conditioning issue with the truncated training camps? Our line applied zero pressure in the second half and Goff had forever to pick apart the secondary. The d-line appears to be a serious issue. -

Ryan Fitzpatrick: Hall of Famer? or First Ballot HoFer?
TheBrownBear replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'd love to see the guy get a chance to start a playoff game. Would be a great story if he came in as a backup and led a team to a Super Bowl win. Not likely, but it would be a fitting end to the ultimate underdog story. -
I thought all of the big name guys were overrated (Mayfield, Darnold, Rudolph and Rosen), but thought Rosen was the best pure passer of the bunch. Plus, I'm a UCLA alum and saw all his games so I felt comfortable with him. Still shocked by how he's fallen flat on his face. I really wanted nothing to do with the other guys, particularly Darnold and Rudolph who completely lack any elite skills. I didn't want Allen since he had mediocre numbers in the Mountain West and just assumed he would be an enormous bust based on the experts opinions. I knew he had a big arm, but had no clue about his awesome athleticism or leadership skills or personality. I didn't know what to think about Lamar, but would have been on board wth us using our second 1st rounder on him.

It's amazing the pain and punishment these guys put their bodies through to play the game. I broke my ribs in a mountain biking accident in June and I could barely sleep for 3 weeks, and coughing or sneezing felt like getting hit with a baseball bat. These guys just take a shot, go out and get pummeled by 300 pound he-men.

Type "Josh Allen" into a Google search and you'll see that he's getting tons of love from the national media. There are always going to be detractors and contrarians and those just looking for clicks. Hell, Tom Brady has 6 Super Bowl rings and there will always be a contingent who views him as a "system" quarterback or labels him a cheater. Peyton Manning, as great as he was, was often knocked for his lack of Super Bowl appearances and rings compared to Brady. Anything short of perfection and you'll find someone popping up with a negative critique. And even those who touch perfection will get labeled as "too perfect" or "robotic"...lol. It is what it is. Obviously, some Bills fans are extremely sensitive to this criticism and the outside public opinion about our team and quarterback. It's completely understandable when you consider that we've been desperately praying for good quarterback play for the past 25 years. There's a fear that maybe Josh won't become that elite guy that he's showing flashes of growing into. We seek the outside validation to allay those fears and protect our own egos. For me, personally, I don't care at all what the outsiders think of Josh, because my eyeballs and the results on the field are telling me that Josh is THE GUY. I feel very good about our chances of reaching a Super Bowl in the next 4-5 years with Josh leading the way.

Josh Allen's stats the last 16 games..
TheBrownBear replied to aceman_16's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What's his record over that span? -
I don't really care or get worked up by these types of things, but this is just ridiculous and seems to completely discredit their entire approach. I could almost see the argument if he just dumped off a bunch of screen passes and guys were taking it to the house, but he was throwing the ball downfield and dropping dimes everywhere. Russ, Dak and Josh were clearly the top 3 QBs yesterday by basically any measure.

Anthony Lynn: Backs Tyrod as Starter
TheBrownBear replied to BullBuchanan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That's debatable and it really depends on the player and their mental readiness. I think it's been widely acknowledged that Josh benefitted from the 4 week injury rest he had during his rookie season. Remember that Lynn and his staff have a much clearer picture of who Herbert is right now than we do. I agree he made some nice throws. There was one he zipped into a tight window to Allen in the second half that really impressed me (and the announcers if I recall correctly). It was the type of throw that Tyrod would never ever attempt, but the kind of throw your quarterback needs to make at some point to move the ball against better defenses in this league. -
Anthony Lynn: Backs Tyrod as Starter
TheBrownBear replied to BullBuchanan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Can't imagine Chargers fans being too happy with those quotes by Lynn. Oh wait, the Chargers don't have any fans. But seriously, I'm guessing Lynn is pissed about the terrible interception that Herbert threw near the goal line at the end of the third quarter. Chargers were about to stretch it to a 2 score game and that completely changed the momentum. Herbert looked pretty good for being thrown in the fire minutes before kickoff, but they kept things really simple for him with play action and lots of roll-outs/one side of the field stuff. And his stats benefitted from an inordinate amount of YAC on the part of his receivers. But yeah, he definitely passed his first test. -
It's never too early... MVP of the Quarter: Trent Edwards, QB, Buffalo. "My MVP is tied for 12th in touchdown passes with four, 10th in passing yards with 930 and 10th in passer rating at 93.5. But the Bills are 4-0, and the difference is an efficient quarterback who, like all the great ones, plays better when the game's on the line than any other time of the game."
