Rookie QB in his first start behind an O-Line now christened "The Red Carpet" struggles the half he plays?  Yes, he is quite obviously a bust, cut him now, fire McBeane...  ?

He was a bust on draft night...

That was an absolute s##tshow around Allen.

 

It was rather ridiculous.  He did make a couple of bad throws, but the OL pretty much gave him no chance and Benjamin let him down too. 

[Bing Bong]

Bengals just scored points with a guy that's never played football before

[Yeezus]

I've seen some stupid things during the drought era

 

but nothing worse than this offseason with fans claiming we can turn into a playoff team with Allen.

we really need Kyle in this Defense. They look lost

They looked lost with Kyle in game with browns... In fact our run defense improved with Kyle out of the lineup

The Jets move to trade up to get Darnold forcing the Bills to select Allen is a 30 for 30 waiting to happen. McBeane got played hard.

Yikes man... go root for the Pats. Im embarrassed to root for the same team as you!#truestory

[PromoTheRobot]

The bright side to this game is it gives the negative nancies a chance to go nuts. Kind of like the Purge. Gotta blow off some steam. Too much positivity lately.

Didn’t Peterman already get a start vs another team’s 1s?

 

Hes looked pretty consistent no matter what unit he’s out there with.

 

People are letting their desire to see Allen start get in the way of what is plain as Day: Peterman has looked like the best QBs in the pre season. I want Allen to be the guy too, but he ain’t there yet.

Preseason game 3 is not the same as the others, and you know it. 

 

Don't be surprised when you see 3+ picks in game 1, if Peterman starts. 

 

Either way, this OL/WR group has looked insanely bad. I'm not making excuses, I'm just going to say I wish whoever starts at QB godspeed and good luck. The need to invest in some good injury insurance.

Haha, dude seriously this is one pre-season game. This board is !@#$ing bi-polar. One week the team plays well this is a potential dynasty the next week the results aren't as good and everything and everyone sucks. The one big thing this game showed was that the O-line is pretty terrible and Allen is indeed a rookie.

If football makes you this sad there are plenty of other things to watch on TV.

Just stop.

You are becoming increasingly annoying with your lack of appreciation for well informed knowledge of the bills

I disagree.  Definitely a tough situation, but it was pretty clear that Allen needs a bit more seasoning.  

I agree with you.  Obviously, plays where the line disintegrated and Allen was chased around should be thrown out of the evaluation pile, but there were plenty of other plays where that did not happen, and there is no reason why you can't evaluate his performance in those.

Explain what makes it clear. 

I don’t think he looked terrible, but there were quite a few times when he should have gotten rid of the ball sooner and, as I said, he did not look in control.  Getting the team out of the huddle late is one indication of that.

You literally said all our other TEs are better blockers. It’s  not true. Now you want to backpedal.

 

Regardless, you want to cut a guy, which saves us no money, who has been one of our most productive receivers, because we have 2 or 3 other guys who do some nice things here and there against backups? Cool story. 

Nah, I said Croom and Khari from the start, I later generalized which I can see how it included our currently 4th string TE. We need to Cut 2-3 TE's anyway, so even without cap savings, it frees up roster spots for... I dunno some more Oline or Defense for one to maybe stick around

[leonbus23]

I wish McDermott would have played Peterman in the second quarter. Then, we'd have a better comparison between qb's. The question is would Peterman have played better than Allen against the Bengals starting D?

[Boatdrinks]

NP will look just as Allen did if he was running the exact same plays. Those weren’t quick hitters, by and large. They will have to run a quick game behind this OL in reg season. It’s apparent now. They wanted to see Allen throwing deeper stuff and this line isn’t up to it. 

[Yeezus]

Louliteli or whatever his name is 

 

going to be cut next offseason. guy is a bum. how tf do you trade Darius and then proceed to give a mediocre DT big money.
