The guy running away from the receiver on a crucial big gain? No no, he’s too good in coverage to lose. Looks even worse when they are on the same field. If I were him I’d be done. Real life is way more important than football or any job for that matter.

No idea why they didn’t force a return there, would have burned at least one play off. Really poor game management

How do you know what he actually does better than those guys?

Done growing for sure, but body composition can change and weight can go up or down pretty easy. The guy looks solid, but almost everyone coming out of college can gain on strength with NFL trainers.

That sucks, not sure if he was going to get to play Sunday or not, but he has been solid when he’s gotten a shot.

You always have a shot when you have an elite QB. That said, Allen’s style of play does not lend itself to a Brady like career, more like a Big Ben, so I’m saying we have about 10 years of high level play left. The key is how long you can keep a team around guys like him. It can’t become any more Josh Allen and a bunch of guys in matching uniforms or he won’t be able to get it done. It will be a Rodgers situation. IF the D line can improved next season and you get Tre back, you have a shot for a couple more years. The cap will be going up enough to retain most of the key pieces and you have to draft well. We probably are seeing the last year for 2-3 guys who “start” or play a key role on the D line. They have to be replaced and the replacement will need to cost less than them. I expect Diggs to get a contract tweak to keep him happy, which means they have to think about Beasley possibly leaving. Sanders could come back in that slot role for less I would think. So that will free up some capital. They have to deal with Edmunds or his replacement soon too. There’s still a need for CB, and you need to re-up Hyde. Basically, it’s going to be a lot of shuffling of dollars to field almost the same team, the draft is going to have to fill holes quickly.

Yeah, but I’d like to win, not prove that Edmunds is who we thought he was.

I think it’s pretty fair to say you haven’t watched Watson if you don’t get the hype. He’s put up top 5 numbers with bottom 5 talent around him. He’s a special player, arguably enter than our own Josh Allen. That said, he’s pretty obviously a giant ####### and I would not want him as the face of my team. I also certainly don’t want him in our division.

His drafting put him solidly in the hot seat from day 1. I have no problem with WHO he decided he wanted, but man did he over draft. If you were going to take the Dae nobody knew, move down.

I would love to have Fitz back here. It’s obvious he isn’t taking JA’s job, there’s zero chance of it, he would be a true back up, if he’s cool with that reality at this point in his career, which one would think he would be, it would be great to have him here for the next couple years, assuming MT moves on.

I don’t think that was a good move on his part, it only takes exposure to get the virus and regardless of its impact on your health, a positive test is a positive test, you’re sitting out. If I’m McClappy, he’s isolated until Saturday. It would suck to have your star WR out, but it would suck way more if he knocks other players out too.

I don’t think Josh has a snowballs chance in hell of MVP this year with the statistical regression along with more losses, all of which can essentially be put in his lack of performance in the last minutes. That said, IDGAF about any of that. If we get the QB that’s been playing the last few weeks, through these playoffs, there’s a chance finally win the SB. To me, this week is the biggest hurdle. KC is still the AFC champ until de-throned, gotta go to their house and take it from them. The early season win means nothing now, their early season struggles mean nothing now, you have to go throw down in the playoffs and come out with the win. If they can get it done, I like the chances against either of the Bengals or the Titans. They should have curb stomped the Titans this season and the D couldn’t hold up, the Bengals are very good, but beatable for sure.

Well in fairness, Allen was never going to get more accurate, was never going to see the whole field and would never be more than an athlete trying to play QB. That thought pattern failed. Jones may not pan out, but it’s too early to know.

He’s made some progress, already looks better than 57 out there, not the bar is high there.

This was a playoff game, not just a regular season game. That means the other team is a contender, they are fighting for their lives, and this particular team boasted a top 5 D all year. The Bills dismantled them like they were playing a high school team. That was epic. It might be the best offensive performance ever, forget about just the Bills.

No, I’m not kidding, rolling with Peterman and Allen is/was one of the worst cases of roster management one could make. Tyrod wasn’t the answer, but he was/is a fringe starter and they went into the season with zero starting reps at the most crucial position in the game. Even McCarron had next to nothing, that was stupid.

I think they’d find a backend player to move to the PS and then bench Basham.

I would like the move, if he were able to play against NE this week. He would slot in right behind Groot, which would be a nice upgrade to the run D. One would think he would come in with his hair on fire to try to get paid again in the off-season. Too bad it’s not gonna happen.

I honestly would roll with another punter off the street for the playoffs and let Hack be the holder. One player at the end of your bench isn’t going to make or break you. Umm since when is Edmunds even good at pass coverage? That’s just the crap they try to say because he’s fast, he gets looked off so easy it’s pathetic. Umm since when is Edmunds even good at pass coverage? That’s just the crap they try to say because he’s fast, he gets looked off so easy it’s pathetic.

Isn’t it obvious? He’s got so much arrogance, his body actually ignores the rest of his muscles to keep it pumped up.

Trading Taylor was a mistake, period. That was AWFUL roster management. Still not sure why they won’t play Edmunds where he belongs.

Agreed, scares the Chit outta me

I’m betting Hyde is back there for every punt in the playoffs.

Interesting stat for sure. The obvious big factor is the rules make it so favorable to pass you have to. The other major note is the majority or good running teams are going to a RB by committee. Elliot barely broke 1k with the extra game, that’s mostly because Pollard took a lot of carries, from such a high paid back it’s nuts. Also, I can’t recall a year ever before there have been so many injuries to RBs. Henry would have had close to 2k, McCaffrey, all of Baltimore got hurt, most of the guys we are familiar with being on the list missed a bunch of games.

Ok, the list is debatable, I get that. I personally feel Herbert is too high and I would take JA over Murray any day, but I can’t argue Rodgers, Brady, Burrow, Maholmes, being above JA as of today. The case can be made for the other 2, but my bias says JA is better. Here’s the good part, we have the last guy on the list who you would feel good about as your QB right now (Russ is criminally low on here, even if he’s beat to hell this year) Carr is the next best option? Woof. To show how bad the QB situation around the league is, Jalen Hurts is 14, yeah that’s right, he is ranked better than over HALF the starters in the league.. yikes. For all the years spent wishing we had a QB that could even be debated as a top 10 QB, I’m not going to worry about one guy putting our guy at 7, especially given that 2 of the guys above him are two of the all time greats. It’s really nice to not have to debate if Tannehill would have been the upgrade we needed to squeak into the playoffs. Forget it, we have it really good. Josh has been up and down this year, but as it’s been pointed out, even his down days are better than most guy’s good days. His good days are absolutely unbeatable. I sure would like to see him even that out to be more like a Rodgers level, but let’s not forget he’s still very young and still earning the big boy stripes. The only QBs I have ever seen be so damn poised and polished at such a young age are Burrow and Maholmes. They haven’t been perfect either, and both faced much better competition their whole lives. As long as Josh keeps growing, he will be a first ballot HOF player, if he stops right where he is, he probably still will be. That’s a nice place to be. Wilson has been beat up this year, hard to hold an injury riddled season against a guy with such a great history.
