  1. Because they are scouts and not arm chair GMs who constantly get their scouting news from the TBD wanna-be General Managers and pundits out to make a name for themselves.
  2. Such a BS lazy take. If he wasn’t great, why after the 2017 draft was Allen regarded as the potential first pick in the next draft? https://www.denverpost.com/2018/01/18/nfl-draft-2018-josh-allen-quarterback/amp/ “When the 2017 NFL draft ended, ESPN’s Adam Schefter, relaying information he had gathered from an anonymous team’s personnel director, predicted Wyoming quarterback Josh Allen would be the first player selected in the 2018 draft.” His 2017 year wasn’t as good as 2016, because he had new O-line and skill players (WR, RB, and TE) who hardly played or never played with him before, then he got hurt at Air Force and missed a few games where Wyoming got destroyed by like the worst teams in the conference. Wyoming is not Alabama or Oklahoma where every year they have blue chip players. Bottom line, Wyoming sucked before he took over. They were 2-10 in 2015 and 15-33 over the 4-years prior. He took Wyoming to two straight bowl games before the draft. You don’t do that because you weren’t great in college. You have to have some context.
  3. If they didn’t want him up front, **** them! No sloppy seconds!
  4. That's what they said about Fangio too.
  5. Haters gonna hate; do you ever see any positive posts from these same people or ever see them show up after a win? Yeah, me either.
  6. There is a rampant lack of situational awareness! WTH.
  7. Well, at least your other favorite team still has a chance tomorrow!
  8. Thoughts and Prayers for your family!
  9. Even if Josh had similar turnovers to Lamar, he wouldn't win anyway. Remember in 2021 when Lamar was a Pro Bowler with a combined 3649/18 TDS and Josh was snubbed with a combined 5170/42TDs. No different today.
  10. Lamar certainly has less turnovers, but offensively, I'd would argue Josh, stat wise is just as good if not better. Lamar Jackson 2019 MVP Season = 4333 combined total yards and 43 combined TDs 2023 Season = 4499/29TDs (sat final game)* Josh Allen 2020 (4965/45 TDs), 2021 (5170/42 TDs), 2022 (5045/42 TDs), 2023 (4830/44 TDs).
  11. No Mahomes or Tua; but yet Allen is not a Pro Bowler. lol
  12. You're probably right based on how the defense played that night. However, just food for thought, the last two times we played the Chiefs (in KC) we had the lead and Mahomes threw an interception to lose in 2022 and turnover on downs in 2023. Nothing is guaranteed.
  13. Probably makes sense, but they need to nail the WR position wherever they draft one.
  14. Bills fans being saying this for two plus years now...Beane finally reading TBD! lol
  15. Good read: How Mike Martz and The Greatest Show on Turf kicked off an NFL revolution https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/05/23/rams-greatest-show-on-turf-mike-martz-dick-vermeil Let’s be honest,” Warner says, “we had a collection of talent that was ridiculous.”...The process started by retaining Isaac Bruce, a second round pick for the Rams in 1994. It involved the prescient and serendipitous signing of Kurt Warner in ’98, a grocer at the local Hy-Vee in Cedar Falls, Iowa just four years prior, as third-string quarterback. That preceded the unheralded drafting of speedy Az-Zahir Hakim in the fourth round of the ’98 draft, and the free agent pick up of crafty veteran Ricky Proehl that same year. It was officially set in motion with the heist of Marshall Faulk, in a trade from the Colts as a result of a contract dispute; and it culminated with the selection of Torry Holt with the sixth pick in ‘99. It was also a collection of talent that all possessed a rare quality, an ineffable quality, a borderline cliché quality, that allowed the Coryell system to operate at a level of efficiency and efficacy that had never before been seen: high football IQ. Bottom-Line, this team, in my opinion, is lacking in the "Ridiculous Collection of Talent" at the WR position to master any offensive system. We have a decent core with Allen, Cook (if he can improve his pass catching), Kincaid, Diggs, and Shakir. But we need two more WRs who are high IQ, fast, tall, and compliment each other. Davis was decent, but he was limited. I think his best role was as a #4 vice #2. Our WRs who best appeared synchronized as a group was the 2021 above-average core of Diggs, Sanders, Beasley, and Davis (with Sanders & Beasley at the end of their careers). We need two studs to go along with Diggs and Shakir, with one of those kids eventually taking over for Diggs in a year or two.
  16. Not feeling it with this coaching staff!
  17. Depends on if they can slow/contain their running game. I agree if Baltimore is able to run and control the clock. That’s their strength.
  18. Finished watching; can’t believe how poorly Brady called the game around the two minute warning.
  19. 5 Weather can be a great equalizer
  20. The play calling is on another level; jealous!
