I think Brock Purdy is an interesting comparator. He's succeeding because the '9ers have the #1 defense in the league, because they have a top-10 run game, and because Shanahan is able to craft a system which gives the QB easy decisions.
In theory, as a Shanahan disciple, Mike McDaniel should be able to do something similar for Skyler Thompson.
To date, it hasn't worked out as well, in part because who Miami is this season is very different from who SF is: much less run game, offense built to exploit WR speed, not as good defense, (I think) not as good run game.
I think McDaniel believes the Bills have weaknesses on D and on O he can exploit, but that remains to be seen.
We want to Just Play Ball. You see a play, you make a play, what happens happens.
If we play with "love" as @Simon quipped about parts of the Patriots game, or think about "kid gloves", we may lose; I don't think you can win playing that way.
OMG that first deep pass - it took forever to get there and the receiver had to come back for it. If he led him and hit him in stride, woulda been a TD
The reason why people didn't believe in Josh Allen's mobility in Wyoming, was because they looked at the competition he faced and said "yeah, in the NFL, he won't be able to get away because the opponents are faster and bigger and stronger".
Except that when Josh Allen got to the NFL, it was "Hold My Beer".
