H2o Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 From most accounts I've read on here I thought Allen had been the best of the 3 QB's. His article said Allen is struggling. Which on is it? 1

His article said Allen is struggling. Which on is it? Not even close. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a full red shirt year for him. I wouldn't mind it either. Would love to see Mack here next year!

I’ve been saying that McDermott won’t rush him out there if he’s not ready. 1

I’ve been saying that McDermott won’t rush him out there if he’s not ready. Pat Kirwan was on wgr today saying that he thinks they need to identify the starter, at least internally, by next week. He said they cannot continue dividing up the reps this way among 3 and that one guy needs to get at least 60% by next week for that guy to be ready for the season given the relative inexperience of the group. 4 1

I'm guessing they name a starter after the 1st preseason game unless McCarron struggles or Allen looks amazing.

This is true. But contrary to some fans reports Josh Allen has had a dozen snaps with the 1s. So it’s betweem AJ and NP. 16 minutes ago, TheTruthHurts said: I'm guessing they name a starter after the 1st preseason game unless McCarron struggles or Allen looks amazing. 12 to 14 plays with the 1s Allen isn’t ready
FLFan Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 (edited) Pretty balanced take by LaConfora, although I think the Center position is less of a tire fire than he indicates. I think there has been a huge difference in LaConfora's reporting on the Bills under the new regime. It makes me think he had some big issue with Whaley in particular, and perhaps Rex as well. Whatever it is, his attitude toward the Bills is reborn. Edited July 31, 2018 by MDFan Spelling

Whatever it is, his attitude toward the Bills is reborn. He was the author of the St Doug story. i always thought there was a mole on staff feeding him stories to make Marrone, Whaley, Rex look bad and now that guy has been gone so he’s not getting the dirt Edited July 31, 2018 by YoloinOhio
