I would like to see this, but as Yolo said, you don't get in with 2 losses.

Do you think they are just using this to keep Anderson off the field. He may have told management that " I signed up to mentor Allen, but don't put me on the field again"?

That is hard to believe.

I especially remember the two consecutive time outs Gibbs Called. This play may have been scripted before the defense took the filed. That would have been a class move to take a knee.

You make a strong argument. Do you think the Dolphins will put a "spy" on Allen throughout the game?

He was a good man. He was also the youngest US pilot in WWII at 18. He truly served his country in many ways RIP.

You're right, but it still hurts. maybe I need professional help to get past this.

I just Googled the free agent qbs in 2019. The top four listed are Matt Ryan, Tyrod Taylor, Teddy Bridgewater, and Nick Foles. I don't believe any of them would fit the mold you are looking for. We may have to find a lower priced retread that has something left in the tank.

Yeah, I would not want to see him in a gain again. You may be right. Do you have someone in mind?

I am indifferent to the Tide, but they again look like the best team in college football. Saban has had an incredible run.

That may be an option, but do you not believe an experienced backup is valuable as a mentor for another year?

I believe it is. I am a long time Penn State fan and I am still burning about them not making the final four a couple of years ago when the beat the Buckeyes and then got passed over by THE Ohio State. The results on the field should determine who is in the playoffs. (I know, I may just be bitter). It seams that the committee bends over backwards to get them into the final four. today's announcement will be interesting. To me, it is clear that the Sooners should be the fourth playoff team. There is still an argument that Georgia could still be in the playoffs. I know this won't happen, but they may be one of the best teams this year

I am still all about the development of Allen. I am really optimistic about his potential. I would be ok if they left the situation the way it is now. The only concern I have is if Barkley can be effective against a decent team or if he was taking advantage of an atrocious Jets team. I am not saying I want Barkley to start over Allen, but I do have that concern. I responded, but It did not load as a quote. I agree with you completely. I would live to see a proven QB coach with has been effective in developing young QBs. I never understood this hire.

If we can continue to improve for the balance of the season, who knows? Last year proved that almost anything is possible.

Yes for the remainder of the season. I do believe that Anderson is a good mentor for Allen. I would revisit the situation in the off season and see if the we have an opportunity to strengthen our backup qbs then.

As despicable as his actions were, I don't think he should have no chance for redemption. If he gets counselling, he is serious about it and works the process (sorry) maybe he will earn the right to play in the NFL again. He could turn this situation into a positive by becoming an advocate of domestic nonviolence. Maybe I am feeling the after affects of our Christmas party last night, but if he shows true remorse and turns himself around, why not give him a second change? I like your Avatar. That was a great movie.

I am ok with the backups we have on our roster. could they be better? sure. But it is getting a little late in the season to bring in a new backup qb to learn the system and expect to be affective. (or is it effective. I never know for sure.)

15 -29 for 247, 2 td passes. He will rush for 73 yards and 2 rushing TDs. Bill 31 dolphins 17.

I agree. Especially regarding Kyle and Lorax. They provide a critical veteran presence for our defense. Both are still effective in their mud 30's. Amazing.

I believe that if we can improve our oline, shady can still be effective. He has played his heart out for the Bills. I would like to keep him for another year

Lol. I believe I was attempting to type he is. I am not the greatest at typing on my phone.

5.5 dogs seems about right. The odds makers give 3 points for the home team, so tacking on 2.5 points is fair. We need to win this game.

I like and agree with everything you said. It is always nice to beat the Dolphins twice in one year. If we don't make the playoffs, it would be nice to rank 2nd in our division. This would be something to build on.

Really nice recap of the game and especially the review of Allen. Thank you for the time it took to create this writeup.

Hole is very inexperienced, but he show a lot of poise. Maybe in time.
