Kelly to Allen

Looking back on everything it is pretty incredible that the wide receiver room had a few injuries with Samuel had to make a trade for Cooper and then he got hurt, Kincaid got hurt , Coleman got hurt and yet Allen still had a MVP season.... And that's with sitting out the last game!!! I said before that Allen obviously took a superstar jump in 2020 but then he took another jump this past year from the pocket. Many of the games including the Seattle game I could swear Josh Allen reminded me of Tom Brady just sitting in the pocket and taking with the defense gave him. There was definitely another level of growth. All that being said, OJ Simpsons 2000 yards in 14 games when everybody knew he was getting the ball is one of the greatest single seasons in all of sports history. Not only that but OJ ran with such a unique style of Grace and speed that has been rarely seen from that position. Outside of Barry Sanders he's probably one of the coolest running backs just to watch play from an eye test standpoint It was almost like OJ was skating or gliding across the football field

Kenneth Grant reminds me of Cortez Kennedy but I fear he won't be there. I'm really warming up to the Boston college de or Golden, the wr from Texas. I like a CB in Rd 2

Exactly. Elway and big Ben, even favre took much more violent hits and more often and played well into their late 30s.... Same with Steve Young and Staubach. This question should be asked of mahomes who is Allen's doppelganger

That is a fair point. He doesn't play up to his athletic abilities and talent consistently. I think a lot of that is he doesn't have a true enforcer at nt next to him tho. But maybe that's where I'm wrong. If he needs that type of upgrade next to him, maybe he's not as talented as I think.... It's a tough question Your point is totally fair. He's too inconsistent. But his flashes are incredible. I just wish we saw it more

None of those guys are better than Oliver. Oliver is as explosive as it gets from a 3 tech archetype. The problem is a formidable NT

I agree generally. Although my faith in this regime has lost momentum with the same issues on defense in the AFC championship. I will say if we add Garrett or Crosby I'll be ecstatic. Simultaneously it's important to not get tunnel vision on a big trade when this draft is loaded in dline all across the top 120 picks. It could be a greater move to keep all our picks, and use free agency to fill out our needs. It does feel like if we do make a big trade it has the feeling of 2 steps forward 1 step back...

This draft is loaded in rbs and davis is really good imo. Ty Johnson and Allen have a connection too. Trade him for picks and take a RB like Devin Neal in Rd 4

Can you link this? I don't see this anywhere bro

Not happening

I think it's much more historical. This could be a Jerry West vs Bill Russell situation. Only difference is it's in the same conference It's completely possible Allen vs mahomes happens 5-7 more times in the next 10-12 years

Yup I agree

Yup. This eagle roster is awesome. It's pretty much elite almost everywhere. It's the one roster that I agree is better than Buffalo. Not Baltimore.... If they lose it will be because of hurts. It will also let the bills off the hook so to speak a little bit. Ppl will say " hey if this eagles team couldn't beat kc maybe Buffalo was really the only team authentically in KCs way" This will especially be true if kc blows them out. Mahomes in a dome with a fully rested and healthy worthy, Hollywood and kelce could be lights out. Thuney at Lt has calmed things down. I also think trey Smith is the best guard in the NFL and can hold his own with Carter. Caliendo is a issue tho

Hurts is good but he's not a great QB like Allen. The difference between those teams and the bills is it's generally the lack of a few blue chip players around Allen that have failed in these games. Mainly on defense The only player that truly raised his level in a big moment was Gabe Davis. Diggs was really good vs Indy and Baltimore in 20... That's it.

That's true. I can't remember but has McDermott ever brought in an established outsider on his side of the football that he didn't really know? I think this is the first time but I'm not sure

Koonce is coming off an ACL I think. Obviously he's much younger and should be fine but he could be had much cheaper in fa

This is a good sign and tells me McDermott is not ideologically rigid. Just being willing to listen to new ideas tells me a lot

Gambling in one degree or another infects/corrupts everything and more importantly the perception of everything. It's generally an environment of con artists/ liars/ low quality ppl It's a problem ( even if only in an optics context) and it's something that won't be fruitful and good for sports in the long run. I think you're naive about the world if you don't think organized crime, corruption etc exist. There are much greater conspiracies that have been proven in history, some very tragic. It's a tale as old as time The NFL needs to get away from it's partnership with legalized gambling. It's just going to get worse imo Just look up on how many of these gambling institutions even came about. It's pretty evil

Considering it became one of the most toxic conversations I've ever seen in a while with sports and both QBs didn't get to the super bowl. If I was Allen I'd rather go to Applebee's

I really hope you're wrong about Coleman. He didn't look right after the injury and it's concerning. I am hopeful but I'm not sure beane can just count on him taking a big step forward. I don't think he sucks or anything like that but it's possible that maybe he's just a big play target number 3 type wr. And that's not enough for a top pick. I was extremely disappointed in him and Kincaid in the playoffs. Basically gave us nothing dynamic That has to change As for Elam. I was an Elam truther and was wrong. It's time to move on. I think his confidence is gone. That pick still pisses me off in contrast to kc getting McDuffie

I never hated kc or anything like that. They're great and mahomes is great. Can't take anything away from them. We're right there but we need a strong off-season

I don't have a problem with the Kincaid and Coleman picks. Obviously they gotta take that next step. A lot of this is diggs screwing us over. So I can't get mad at beane for diggs turning into a nut job The Elam and basham picks are indefensible and ridiculous. The fact that Elam and basham aren't even avg starters and could be out of the league is a massive failure I forgot who said it, but he's right that 1st Rd picks are incredibly overvalued and so I'm not opposed to trading some higher picks for proven players. Especially with Allen entering his early prime

They took a catch away vs Seattle. He basically had back to back 100 yd games

I mean he was pacing 45 for like 850 yds and 6 tds as a rookie. He looked pretty dominant vs the Titans and Seahawks

It makes me sick seeing kc on TV during the super bowl media week. This should have been buffalos spotlight. Pissing me off

Yeah I'm pretty high on Coleman. I just think he needs an off season to work on the nuances of the position. Working out with Moulds is something he should do
