  1. We're not bashing Watson, we're just saying Josh is better and even in his rookie year with no talent around him he still won 5 of his 11 starts, something Watson, when saddled with a bad team couldn't do. Don't be stupid (to use your word) & use the 9th best rushing #s in 2018 when you know, or should know, that Josh Allen was the leading rusher on that team. Let's take both Allen out of the 2018 Bills rushing stats where he rushed for 631 yards on 89 attempts for a lofty 7.1 yards per carry in 10 starts and parts of another two games and Watson in 2020 where he rushed 90 times for 444 yards for a 4.93 yards per carry (while NOT being the team's leading rusher). What you're left with is the Bills 2018 yards per carry was a pedestrian 3.56, while the Texans rushers, who had fewer carries than the 2018 Bills because they had a better receiving corps with a veteran to throw to them , ran for 4.02 yards per carry without Watson's rushing plays. To show how bad the Bills running game was in 2018 without infusing Josh Allen into the stats, the most telling thing is that none of the 2018 halfbacks were on the 2019 team. If the Bills running game was as good as you say, why was the only guy back in 2019 FB Pat Demarco who had only 1 carry for 9 yards in 2018 and did not affect the Bills 2018 rushing stats?
  2. Josh is better than Watson & always will be. Watson was 4-12 this past season. No team with Josh Allen as the starting QB would ever go 4-12. Even in Josh's rookie year, with no offensive line or WRs, Josh willed the team to 5 wins out of the 11 games he started. Watson loses, Josh wins. Wins are the most important statistic because a QB makes everyone around him better. Josh does that, Watson doesn't.
  3. Same problem with other guys who look good when they're running around in shorts, but once a team puts the pads on him he's a bum.
  4. Back in the days when Mike Williams was playing RT I used to go to every game with Petrino & every time fat Mike messed up I'd turn to John & say to him "Should have drafted Mckinney"
  5. You didn't learn anything from this year's game. You never want to play a team in their home stadium in the Super Bowl. It's a huge unfair advantage. I said from the beginning of the playoffs that if Tampa won the NFC, it would be too hard for the AFC to win this year. If the Rams are in next year's Super Bowl they're a lock to win the game. Same thing goes for the Chargers if it's any NFC team other than the Rams.
  6. I'm pretty sure the prices quoted in the article don't include service fees. On Location fee was 18% this year.
  7. Unfortunately I passed on betting the game because I bet other stuff with my gambling money, but as I said home fie!d was huge. Fortunately I won the other bets so it all worked out.
  8. People are overlooking the obvious. So before the conference fans I said there was no way I wanted Tampa to win the NFC because they would have a huge advantage due to playing at home. Everyone underestimated how big that advantage was. It was even bigger when the league ruled that the Super Bowl teams wouldn't travel to Tampa until right before the game. Tampa would have beaten any AFC team because they had an unfair advantage.
  9. It was his time as a Bill that put him over the top. 😁
  10. It was his coach Barry Switzer who said that about Aikman. At the time I thought Switzer was lucky that Aikman was a bigger man & didn't knock him out. I'm sure if another coach told that lie about his star QB, a lot of them would have slugged him right in the face.
  11. Please Stop. It's going to be a long off season.
  12. Anyone who bets the Chiefs will get a lesson on what home field advantage means. Here's what I think: Having home field in the Super Bowl is huge. Combine that with KC's injuries on their O-line and it's Tampa all the way. If the line is KC -3.5 I'll probably split the bet between Tampa with the points & Tampa on the money line as insurance in case KC gets lucky in a close game & wins by 3, but if it's 3 or under the whole bet is going in with Tampa on the money line. Last week when I thought the Bills would be in the game (I wouldn't have bet it though) I wanted nothing to do with playing Tampa at home. I believe KC is in big trouble being the 1st road team in a Super Bowl. I think it's even worse with KC traveling within 2 days of the game.
  13. He was interviewed using social distancing & had to use a microphone. When they asked him why he thinks he's qualified to be their next coach, Culley answered the question with a question. He said "Who is the best QB of the 2018 draft and who was his 1st QB coach?" Houston's management answered "Josh Allen & you" Culley then looked at them & dropped the mic. Houston management immediately said "You're hired" Seriously, I agree with the other poster who stated it was similar to when the Bills hired Chan Gailey. Nobody with any decent credentials wanted the disaster that is awaiting Culley in Houston.
  14. Houston should not take Tua as part of the trade. They should only accept draft choices & draft a QB of their own choosing at 3.
  15. I hate to say it but the only landing spots for Watson are NYJ & Miami, with him probably preferring Miami since they're a lot closer than the Jets. They're the only teams that have two #1s including a top 3 spot to draft Watson's replacement. Houston is only trading Watson if they have a high enough pick to draft his replacement. The OP's trade would leave Houston in a spot where they wouldn't have a shot at a top 5 QB & worse, has them relying on a 4th rounder who didn't see the field in 2020 and has a good chance of being the next Jarrett Stidham.
  16. We're getting a huge break playing Washington. That game might be the decider for home field in the playoffs.
  17. Their top RB averaged 4.0 yards a carry, our top RB 2.8 yards a carry.
  18. Man, get it through your skull our RBs suck. I can't argue with you anymore because 1) You don't know what your talking about when you refers to modern football & 2) You're too blind to see we have no talent at RB. Bye, Felicia.
  19. Not with our RBs, Josh Allen was responsible for the rushing yards because we were lining up garbage at RB. Chiefs RBs outrushed Bills RBs 109-32.
  20. Modern football: All the teams that won playoff games with the exception of the Bills had a potent running game. KC, the defending champs drafted a RB in the 1st round last year. You have no clue what modern football is, it requires a threat at RB, otherwise the D tees off on your one dimensional offense.
  21. Then we have no chance of making it to the Super Bowl. No, the draft is about finding the best players at a position of need, not some grade that you gave someone. 3 years ago a lot of people thought Josh Rosen was a good value at #10, because they gave him a top 5 grade, what good did that do him?
  22. A RB who can actually gain yards when he carries the ball and not drop passes would do wonders for Josh's nerves.
  23. Beane totally understands that the Bills are inadequate at RB, that's why when the Jets released Bell he tried to sign him but lost out to KC (where he was injured & out yesterday). While there are other positions of need, the Bills need to spend their #1 pick (30th) on a RB, just like KC did last year with pick 32. After the game I declared Singletary is the Terry Miller of the 21st century-best season as a rookie & then fades away.
