There's a guy who squandered more talented teams with playoff one and dones. That's ballsy if Dungy dumped on Reid. Smith is as good as Cousins...and cheaper. Who knows, maybe Mahomes will be the second coming of Donovan McNabb and Reid will be able to win another playoff game to make it 2 wins over the last 11 years. Huh? I’m no Dungy fan at all, but to be fair to him, he did have Peyton Gump (Big Game Chump) for a lot of those one-and-dones. As for Andy Reid?

At least Allen ran a more pro style offense. Mahomes ran that shotgun single look spread - has a QB that played that offense in college done well in the pros? Aaron Rodgers?
KRT88 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 It’s exceptionally difficult to make a seamless transition to QB in the NFL. Like all young QB’s he will have growing pains. However, he’s got weapons and when he puts it together, they’ll be some big numbers put up.

They have weapons, but no o line. What's the point of weapons if the o line is abysmal? I want Allen to sit a year so the Bills can take another year to build the o line up. KC had a year to build the line and they did nothing.

Then there's Kyle Boller
Hapless Bills Fan Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 18 hours ago, Mr. WEO said: Wow Tony Dungy, of all people, was ranking on Reid?? Yeah, my jaw dropped. It was right after the playoff loss to Tennessee. I can't find the clip, but as I recall the talking heads were recapping the loss and Dungy said something incredibly blunt like "if Kansas City is looking to win a Superbowl, they will not do so under Andy Reid". I was like "whoaoaoa!" 18 hours ago, Mr. WEO said: Smith is as good as Cousins...and cheaper. The stats actually say Smith was significantly better than Cousins last year, but my eyeballs disagree on even "as good". I think Smith had an incredibly talented stable of WR/TE to throw to, a strong run game, a very good D that could keep them in the game and protect a lead absent Mariota heroics, and play calling that suited him perfectly. With Washington, I see Smith having at best 2/4 of these things, arguably 1/4 or 0/4, and regressing to a 200-220 ypg guy. We'll see. Time will tell.

As for Andy Reid? Dungy's trademark move was, after running it up on a crappy division every year, he would "rest" his starters and then get bounced in the first playoff game. But yeah, Manning shared that same 7 one and done record with his coach. No excuse given the talent on those teams. 2 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Yeah, my jaw dropped.

I'm surprised Tony didn't say "If KC is going to win its only SB, they will have to play it against Rex Grossman". He and Reid belong in the "Regular Season Wonders Wing'" of the HOF... As for Smith, I think he looks better than Cousins as well. We shall see.

Reid has "had his eye on" Mahomes sicne the lad was a fetal ultrasound image. He'll be fine.
HappyDays Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 I dont understand the hype around Mahomes at all.

I'm sorry but if bean gets fired it will be because he passed on Rosen.

First of all Bean was not even the GM when Mahomes was drafted , I guess I missed the announcement that Rosen won the QB competition and will be the week 1 starter ! IMO Mahomes in his second year is still a bigger Question mark then Allen , i watched quiet few of Mahome games and there were some IMPRESSIVE throws but for every one of those ( impressive throws) there were 2 or 3 WT@ was he thinking ????? Lets NOT forget Mahomes had a whole year to sit and watch/learn ,
