My biggest mistakes were loving the trade up for JP, then when he proved me wrong, thinking his replacement, Trent Edwards would be the next Joe Montana.

They outsmarted the 6 teams that could have drafted Josh before the trade up. The only team that might not regret it is the final team of the 6, Tampa Bay, who used some of the picks acquired to help them win the Super Bowl with Brady. The rest have been mostly trash since 2018 although Indy had no idea Luck would retire. The worst is the Giants who one year later drafted Daniel Jones. They didn't outsmart Arizona, who also wanted Josh, they had the draft capital to outbid them. In reality, it was the Bills & Arizona who were the smart ones, but then Arizona picked an all-time bust, Mr. 9 mistakes.

When Doug Flutie signed with the Chargers I signed up for their board to troll on him. I named myself Traitor on their board because by posting on another team's board I was being a traitor to the Bills.

Josh Allen gets his perfect Christmas gift: Elvis Presley
Albany,n.y. replied to RobbRiddick's topic in The Stadium Wall
Why didn't they give him the Elvis from the stadium? -
2004: I blame Donahoe for not having the guts to offer enough to get into the top 10 & draft Roethlisberger. Remember, we started at 21 & went all the way up to 7 to draft Josh because Beane was willing to toss the draft value charts aside & do whatever it took to get his QB. There's no way that JP Losman would have ever been a decent starter in the NFL. He just didn't have it-he had one of the most respected offensive minds in the NFL coaching him, Sam Wyche, and couldn't be developed. Jauron hired the right guy to develop Losman & JP didn't have the goods. The Losman trade cost the Bills the chance to draft Aaron Rodgers with the pick that they traded to Dallas. So they did F up picking a great QB when they had a real opportunity to grab one. None of the draft capital from the Mahomes trade was used to draft Allen. Allen's trade involved 1st trading our own pick 21 to Cincinnati with Glenn to move up to 12 & then dealing our own 2nd rounder & the 2nd rounder acquired from the Rams in the Watkins trade plus pick 12 to move up to 7.

The whole article was very reminiscent of Ralph's years. He allegedly fired Polian because Polian disrespected Ralph's daughter's scouting opinions & called her the C word.

Penix officially replaces Kirk Cousins in ATL
Albany,n.y. replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
I believe the hit rates & failure rates are based on talent & it works for sitting or playing BUT I don't believe talented QBs are ruined. A bad organization can stymie a young QB, but if he has the talent, he'll eventually show it. A bad QB will never show it & all he will do is get his coach fired. Best examples of guys who played as rookies & learned more from their mistakes than by sitting & watching are Josh Allen, Peyton Manning, John Elway, Ben Roethlisberger, Matt Ryan, & Russell Wilson. I believe Josh learned a lot more by playing than watching. A MESSAGE BOARD is for OPINIONS. You're saying your opinions, I'm saying mine. That's why we are here. -
Penix officially replaces Kirk Cousins in ATL

Name the great QB talents that are being wasted. I vote nobody. Fans use the ruined excuse when their team's scouts, GMs & coaches pick QB unsuited to play in the NFL with high draft picks. More like good coaches' talents are being wasted by bad QBs. Guys like Rosen, Z. Wilson, D. Jones, etc are coach killers, not the other way around. -

Cousins has always looked better on paper than on the field. He parlayed a mediocre career into a stat boy's dream & enough GMs bought it to make him a very rich man. I remember in 2018 there were plenty of posters on Bills message boards advocating for the Bills to sign Cousins & save all their draft picks. I was rooting for the Jets to sign him since I'd seen enough of his pumped up on paper career to not want him anywhere near the Bills. Cousins is a classic example why I've always dismissed QB stats in favor of visually evaluating a QB. -
Why hasn't the Samuel signing worked?
Albany,n.y. replied to GASabresIUFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Was productive in Car & Wash. Maybe he can get a job at Delta Sonic. -
Bad survey! The biggest problem is outside of Benford & Johnson, nobody in our defensive backfield should be starting in the NFL. Douglas has played away any contract extension. Stop blaming the D line & coach for the lack of talent at CB & S. The D line weren't the ones letting Nacua & Cupp become spokesmen for 7-11.

Photo from his Facebook page. I'm amazed that CNN keeps posting the photos that don't show his entire face when a Google search gets his Facebook photo. They'll probably be shutting down his Facebook & other social media places pretty soon. -
Josh put his Superman cape on today
Albany,n.y. replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall
Josh plays like Superman, Defense plays like Lois Lane. This game shows that the defensive backfield needs a total overhaul. The only good to great DB is Benford. We could get rid of just about everyone else & they wouldn't be missed. Douglas has played his way off any new contract, Elam has inactived his way off the team. Elam is not on the team next year. The rest of the corners are backups at best. Cole Bishop better be improved next year. Pro Bowler 😆 Hamlin should go home to Pittsburgh or join his buddy Dane Jackson in Carolina.
