Other than the Chiefs, this stretch looks really doable. No worse than 2-2, but 3-1 seems likely -

Allen is going to be a superstar in this league. -
Pump the breaks. He averaged 5.2 ypa. Tyrod could throw for 300 yards if he dropped back 61 times.

Bills vs Jets Postgame Thread
TheBrownBear replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Same here. Doesn't give off strong leadership vibes based on that presser. He seemed sort of clueless. -
Stefon Diggs All22 from 2019
TheBrownBear replied to Aaronthebaron's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Really polished and can be used in a variety of ways. Not as explosive as i expected. Trying to think of a former Bills receiver he reminds me of, but nothing comes to mind. -

If You Could Take One Bill to Lunch...
TheBrownBear replied to NoHuddleKelly12's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Josh Allen. I want to have lunch with the QB who leads the Bills to their first Super Bowl victory. -
I don't even particularly like (or dislike) Reich, found his Tebow-esque proselytizing annoying, and always knew that Kelly was the far better QB. I just couldn't sit back and let the "one bright moment in a career of awful play" comment pass without correcting it. Reich was fantastic as a backup and spot starter for the Bills. The passing numbers and his record back this up. I don't particularly care about what he did for awful teams late in his career. But to insinuate that he was some sort of bum while he was with the Bills is a straight falsehood. Also, the 2 losses you reference with Reich as a starter in '90 and '91 were the final games of each season where we rested the majority of our starters and all of our star players. And Reich only played one half against the Redskins in '90 before giving way to Gilbert. The previous week Reich helped us wrap up the division and home field advantage against the Dolphins, throwing for 234 yards, 2 TDs, no INTs and posting a 139 QB rating. So, from '89-'93 in games in which he started for the Bills that mattered, with a full complement of talent around him (and he didn't even have that against the Oilers since Thurman and some of our best defensive players were injured), Reich was 6-0, posted QB ratings of 80.2, 126, 146.8, 139.8, 115.9 and 118.0, and threw 14 touchdowns against 2 interceptions. The only loss he had as a starter in a game that mattered for the Bills (meaning playoff games, regular season but in playoff contention, not resting starters, etc.) was the '94 New England game that knocked us out of the playoffs. I was there and he was actually quite good for the first three quarters, but we fumbled on our first three possessions of the third quarter (all on pass receptions) and what had been a 17-3 lead had evaporated and was a 38-17 blowout by the 4th quarter. If what I presented above (without even mentioning the greatest comeback in NFL history), isn't considered "clutch" for a backup QB, then I'd love to hear your definition of clutch.

This take is so laughably terrible i can only assume you are too young to have been a fan during the '90s run. Reich was crazy clutch during those playoff years. And many, many fans were calling for him to take Kelly's job at certain points during this time frame. Fans love for Reich had nothing to do with race...lol...and everything to do with his clutch play.

The guys here dissing Frank are being very disingenuous. Reich went 4-2 as a starter from '89-'91, threw 15 touchdowns to only 4 interceptions and had a passer rating over 100 (when that really meant something). His '92 regular season stats all came in mop up duty. In his two playoff starts that year he threw 6 TDs against 1 interception (which was the deflected pick six). He was a GREAT backup QB.

Moss is a tough workhorse back. He'll play the role of Frank Gore, but much more effectively. Singletary is the shifty guy who can get to the second level and has a nose for space. Only thing we are missing is a homerun hitter.

Can't hate on the guy. We have no clue what's going on with his personal life. For all we know, his wife could be unstable with post partum or something.
