Kirby Jackson

He’s never going to be the “quick throw” guy. That’s Peterman. Allen is going to play like Ben or Stafford. He’s going to hang as long as he can and try to push the ball down the field. He’s never going to be the 90% completion guy. He’s going to make big plays.

That’s just not true at all. That’s digging in because he wasn’t the guy that you wanted. He looked like other good young QBs do in their first start. There was a lot of positives mixed with a few mistakes. The 2 biggest mistakes were the 2nd INT and the last sack by James (that was his responsibility). He stood tall in the pocket, made plays with his feet and arm and moved the team some. He looked like the guy that we are hoping for. Obviously, he’s nowhere near a finished product and also plays with THE worst talent in the league. It’s going to take longer than “a few more weeks” but if you didn’t leave that game encouraged it’s because you didn’t go in with an open mind.

Um, Tre White might be a top 5 (at worst top 10) CB right now. Hyde was an All-Pro last year. I get your point that the team doesn’t have a ton of talent but the hyperbole isn’t necessary to emphasize that point. We can tell that this team isn’t loaded but there are some quality NFL players (just not nearly enough).

Passing yards don’t tell me much. Personally, I’m much more concerned with TD:int, 3rd down conversions, and completion percentage mixed with a high YPA. Efficiency is way more important than the gross stats. Are you making the plays at the right time? Are you making more plays than mistakes? Are you getting chunks of yards at a time? That’s what really tells the story.

Um, that was pretty damn close

Ha ha ha, I’m not going to edit it. You can’t call out a guy and then fall victim to autocorrect. Autocorrect 1 - Kirby Jackson 0.

Are we going to talk about Beurlein referring to Jordan Potter as “Poy-ay?”

I’m sorry Hap but “The future is ok” pretty much says exactly what I’m trying to convey. If you want to close it go ahead but the title is what I’m trying to get across.

Ha ha, I often go to a real place but bitcoin has been my preference for cashing out online. I buy amazon gift cards with it. At least I did until I donated this money to god knows whom.

Doug Marrone is a really good football coach and an a-hole.

Ha ha, I withdrew some last night to bitcoin. I lost my bitcoin password which basically means I am out that money. I’m so pissed. I have been looking for it.

It’s funny some say “you are so negative” and then others yell “quit drinking the kool-aid.” I always think that this place is at its best when people have honest debate. It isn’t always going to be sunshine and rainbows or doom and gloom. It’s somewhere in the middle. We aren’t good now but there are some things that make you feel that the future is going to be bright. It’s certainly early but we may have the QB (and he wasn’t my choice). He has a ways to go but today was a positive to me in terms of Allen.

To be clear, I’m not happy with the process. I liked what I saw of Allen. This team is not good but if they found their QB they can succeed. Today was a step forward IMO. I expected this team to be really bad and this year was about Allen. I have hope that we are heading in the right direction.

I’m just going to post this here. I have been on fire 8 of 9 this weekend. edit: I couldn’t post it but hit 5 team teaser this week and last.

Sorry but that’s not how I took this post:

I agree 100%. I’m just saying that losing him is not a big deal. It’s a story because he was playing 10 minutes earlier. He should have finished the game.

Oh, that offense is awful. There are holes everywhere. That was part of what encouraged me. He is playing with trash. The fact that he could make them function was a positive sign.

As always, what I relay here is based in fact. Again, I have no issue if people disagree with my opinions. They do all of the time. When I provide information though, it is fact. I wouldn’t bring it otherwise.

You called me out for my “deep throat source.” I sent you a PM as proof. I don’t like my credibility and honesty being brought into question. Whether you like what I have to say or not, I don’t care. Just don’t pretend that I am lying.

I didn’t end with trust the process. I said “trust the progress.” That’s the young guys. There are many, many posts where I’ve questioned this regime. I just think that they might have hotbed on the QB. That’s what this entire year is about.

Well I just sent you a PM with a text from 9/9/18 saying that was in the cards. You might not agree with me but don’t ever call my credibility into question. I have always told it like it is and shared information that was relevant.

I’ll PM you the text. Check your PM and the dates. I’ve ALWAYS told the truth here.

I never said that I was a process guy. If you’ve been paying attention I have been one of the last adopters. I think that Allen can play. That will cover a lot of the other flaws.

FWIW, I got a text from a poster here on September 9th that said Davis was about to retire. This wasn’t a shock in the room. Maybe they didn’t expect it at halftime but Davis wasn’t going to be be here for long.

You can watch with me anytime. I’ve been called a lot of things on this board but rarely am I called delusional. I’ve always been pretty fair when it comes to the Bills.
