Boludo Posted April 28, 2018 Author Posted April 28, 2018 I have an idea that Wayne doesn't understand how ideas work.
MiltonWaddams Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 I know many will disagree, but if he was in a jogging suit, with headphones and a clipboard through the first 5 weeks, I would think it's the best thing for him. I want him as connected to Daboll as can be, so if games are called from the box, put him up there to see what Daboll sees.

Expand Did I say I think that? No I didn’t, I said what if he beats out McCarron and is clearly the best QB on the roster. You then said starting him would be a mistake, which you have no idea. At this point it’s way too early to say anything before he’s taken a snap with any of the Bills players.
Boludo Posted April 28, 2018 Author Posted April 28, 2018 I have an idea that anyone who disagrees that Allen ought to be red shirted is objectively wrong. The question is will coach have the balls and nerve required to actually sit him once they start 1-5. Gonna be tough.

It’s a fair question. You seem to think you already know he should sit before he’s taken any snaps with any of the Bills players. Notice how McDermott hasn’t said he will. Why? Because he wants to evaluate him. On 4/28/2018 at 6:18 PM, akm0404 said: Do so.

Expand Cool, you have no idea if they would be throwing him to the wolves. I can close my eyes too, and see a raw QB improving over the course of OTAs, Training Camp and the Bills coaches going, woah... this kid is ready. See the difference, I’m not ready to make a decisions before he’s taken the field and either have the Bills coaches.

There's more to playing QB than throwing a ball. Also consider who else is on offense with him. It looks like the Bills are not building the offense in the draft. If McCarron sucks or gets killed out there, that's fine. You don't want to wreck Allen right off. Edited April 28, 2018 by PromoTheRobot

The Bills don’t know that either, hence why they haven’t said that he will sit or announced a starter. Could he end up sitting? Sure.

The depth chart is 1) McCarron 2) Peterman 3) Allen. If McCarron gets injured, Peterman plays, not Allen. Your asked what if Allen was ready? That's like asking what if the sky is orange? 1
Boludo Posted April 28, 2018 Author Posted April 28, 2018 I would hope that even if he is CLEARLY better than McCarron, they still roll McCarron out there. That offensive line as things stand is garbage. Sure, maybe they sign Joeckel and Robinson or something dramatic and the landscape could change. I just HATE the thought of the kid running for his life will our sieve line lets greedy pass rushers gobble him up for sack after crippling sack. I feel like that is the sort of situation that permanently affects a developing QBs mindset and play and can legitimately ruin his long term development. 1

Expand LeSean McCoy Charles Clay Kelvin Benjamin Zay Jones I understand nobody thinks much of these guys (outside of Shady), but with our QB situation, Buffalo was the place WR's went to die. I bet with a capable QB, Benjamin, Clay, and Jones take a step up. I also think we use McCoy a bit more as well. On 4/28/2018 at 6:31 PM, PromoTheRobot said: Stop playing games.
