Heavy Kevi Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 Man, I forgot how much ambush "journalism" sucks. Also, not much in that interview. Not sure I saw much swagger, nor a "putting in check" of TMZ. I like Josh, I just feel like I watched a different video than the OP. 2

I think he handled it in a really mature way for a rookie. He had the chance to be all over the internet with a cocky response but he wants his play on the field to do the talking. I've been wrong about players may times before but there's a chance we have something special here So sad he doesn't have yours He's been coached for months by his agents on how to respond to the media, along with every other rookie in the NFL. This is a non story that proves nothing about his ability to play in this league. If we want to talk about swagger, I don't know, Allen doesn't strike me as the type. Seems like an "aw shucks" type Mayfield, Jackson and Rosen have more of it, for better or worse. Edited May 17, 2018 by TheElectricCompany

BillsFan4 Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 Wow he handled that very well. Whoever that was asking questions is an idiot. 1

I think he has the swagger of a star in the NFL. He put TMZ in check without breaking a sweat. I'm in, im ready to give this project my full support. http://www.tmz.com/2018/05/17/josh-allen-jalen-ramsey-trash-talk/ He didn't really put anybody in check. In fact he had more the look of a kid on a playground trying to avoid being goaded into taking up the schoolyard bully's invitation to a fight than a guy full of swagger. Not saying Allen doesn't have thick skin (I hope he proves to), I just don't see what you see...at least not from this video. Really sucks that they'd be poking at one of the more unassuming rookie QB's this early on. Now if they tried the slick talk with the other Josh... Video's probably going viral in a few hours and Cardinals' fans are feeling like proud papas and mamas.

Rosen has gotten the golden pass through national media attention, even out west. It helps when you have nothing to worry about except proving people wrong about when you were drafted, if that's actually a thing. Leaked tweets on draft day will do that though.

Josh handled it well even though that guy was being annoying as hell and asking stupid questions. There’s no doubt in my mind that you were the “reporter” in that video.

Prototypical QB who can run if needed, has accuracy issues, is a hard worker, and is a really nice guy we can all pull for. I'm not saying they're the same prospect. Allen obviously has far more potential and upside. But they share similarities.

Yeah and you'd be the one to show me door I'm guessing? Mr. Pro-Josh Allen-from-the-start himself. I can assure you that I didn't become a Bills fan via you and won't be going anywhere at your suggestion...lol.

I actually felt Rosen and Allen were the two of the big 5 QB's who displayed one of the most important traits needed to be a successful NFL QB while in college despite Allen's low completion percentage and meager production in a smaller conference. I was a proponent of drafting Rosen because his stats suggested that he the more accurate of the two by far. When Allen was drafted I immediately began watching more videos on him to pick out the other traits that may have justified the selection in the minds of those who made the pick and so that I could be more accepting of the pick. I'm all in with Josh Allen as the Bills QB. Given Rosen's personality he would have been perfect for this situation. That's all.
