nedboy7 Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 (edited) This is what’s annoying. No one is rooting for him to fail. How about people stop posting we aren’t gonna win the SB this year anyways so blah blah blah. Edited October 11, 2018 by nedboy7
DtownB2 Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 I agree that I don't want to make any judgement too early buttttt The Bills drafted Josh Allen with the 7th overall pick who many considered the biggest project with all the right tools. And for the year they surround their first QB taken this high in the history of the franchise with no WRs, a bad offensive line, no veteran QB to mentor him, and a QB coach who doesn't have a history with young QBs. LOL

Nailed it.....Is this what the young people say?

ghostwriter Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 Count me in too. We may know sooner though if he starts to dominate, but 1st year doesn't count, too many great QBs SUCKED their rookie years, the list is astronomical. I'd actually go as far to say that more good QBs have been bad year 1 than good.
4_kidd_4 Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 If only I could get the broad two rows behind me at the NErF to vow to stop calling him “Joshy”.

The Bills have played 5 teams that the experts predicted would be in the playoffs this year and now have 2 winnable games that could make them 4-3 for MNF and the Pats. Nice post OP! I'm with Mofo and Degenerative Mike..........except if we are going to keep an open mind we don't need to manufacture real-time excuse narratives like "he's learning every game" when we don't know if that's really the case. Just gotta' be OK with the unknown this season. 2

If Allen gets benched, I think we need to consider another QB next year. Won't happen. Whaley was all in on EJ Manuel.....both gone now. Bean and McD are all in on Allen...if Allen doesn't make it, Bean and McD will be gone. So, Allen will get all the days Bean and McD have to give him....maybe 3 more years. Then, if things are still bad....adious Amigos 1
Steptide Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 Imo baker Mayfield is a better qb at the moment, and the Browns only have 2 wins. I fully expected Allen to struggle this year. The big thing is can he get better this year and going into next

But as someone who I think was extremely flawed and picked by a regime that makes a lot of bad offensive decisions, it’s hard to blindly trust them. i hate this feeling. But as someone who supported EJ, JP, and Trent until the end and overlooked many warning signs, when is it enough time? Why two years? Thinking you have a QB to then pass on a better prospect, is way worse than admitting the mistake and taking another QB. How many years can we go with saying we have a QB, when we really don't? Allen right now is projecting to be one of the worst passing QBs to play the game, in the pass happy era.
BuffaloBill Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 5 hours ago, Like A Mofo said: Dear Social Media and message board watchers, I as a Buffalo Bills fan will refrain from making a definitive conclusion as to Josh Allen and if he 'is the answer' at QB for the long term for the Buffalo Bills for the rest of the season. After reviewing mine and other opinions over the weeks, I realize that the knee jerk reactions are not needed during this time. I will allow time for Josh to develop. I will stay even keel if Allen has a great game or a bad game in 2018. I will tell myself over and over that 2019 will bring in an infusion of talent which can help the young signal caller. I will remind myself that quarterbacks can take different amounts of time to develop. I sign off on this vow the rest of the year, for my betterment as a fan of this team. Who is with me? Signed, Like A Mofo No, it is best to agonize about this play by play then game to game. By default Bills fans are irrational so trying to be logical just will not work. Signed with affection (possibly confused with irritation and frustration), BuffaloBill

No point in getting too high or too low about his or the team's performance any given week. We will know more by the end of the year, and there will hopefully be some entertaining football in the interim.

This is really what I dont understand Did ppl really think that a raw rookie QB was going to overcome the lack of talent on this offense.....I mean....REALLY?
