BuffaloBaumer Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 Out of all the things (good and bad) that have been said about selecting (and starting) Allen, the worst possible scenario is now staring this idiotic front office right in the face. They deserve everything they get because first, they decided to pick the biggest project in the draft, and then they decide to ruin his career by throwing him to the wolves. He never progressed and now they have him injured. Yes, THEY got him injured. Any person with half a brain could see that Allen was not ready and they STILL went against everything they preached when they drafted him. Have fun with the surgery One Bills Drive because if that happens, you deserve it 100%. It was a terrible pick to begin with and on top of it, they threw away multiple 2nd rounders. You just set this franchise back at LEAST 3 years and ALL of it could have been avoided. Good luck trotting Anderson out there just because you're afraid Peterman will get bood. At least grow some balls and follow through with your senseless plan. 5 1 1 1

Huh I didn't realize people in the front office disguised themselves as Texan players to deliver that late helmet leading hit to his elbow. 2
MAJBobby Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 Ife he needs the surgery i dont see HOW the Bills cannot take a QB early in the draft. 3 1

COTC Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 It’s unfortunate, however typical. If you don’t like irresponsible leadership mixed with bad luck then I suggest finding a different team. This franchise just spins its wheels with excuses. Its primary concern is profit. Winning is not a priority.

colin Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 if he's hurt to start the year, we'll bring in a bigger time vet qb if he's not, we'll bring in a cheaper one eli may be there, frankly if he's there for a trade i'd get him now

So your rant is now moot, as if blaming them for a guy hitting right on the elbow with his helmet wasn't cause enough for this to be moot.

FearLess Price Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 this is def the worst case scenario for his development. even without the injury, you wasted all those 1st team reps in TC and PS on guys that will never start at QB for us. Ever. Then you dont get him a capable veteren to learn from or at least assist in his development. Oh and you never got him a weapon or OL protection after loosing 3 OL starters in the off season. Face it. OBD royally mucked it up. 3 minutes ago, Looper said: Allen is a rookie with a crappy OL and average receivers at best. And Shady is on the downhill slide ... Assuming Allen is OK ... Shady might be on the downhill but he can still play. Hes our only playmaker. Blaming him is only cuz u dont wanna throw it all on the rookie.

Ronin Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 (edited) Where they whiffed is in team-building. Too many fans think that simply having a QB will do it despite the notion that it STILL all starts in the trenches to borrow an overused cliche`. The fact that the front-office thinks like says little for them and frankly, they're both OJT types, Beane in his role and McD in his. They are responsible, but how many people and fans applauded what they traded to get "their guy?" Be honest. When you take such risks your career necessarily hinges on those risks. They could easily have had Edmunds, who was a great pick at 12th overall. So in essence their other 4 picks between 16th overall through the 65th (1st in the 3rd round) is what it took to get Allen. Think of the team that they could have begun building with those picks, hell, they could have completely revamped the O-line to the extent that any average QB would have looked better than Allen, Peterman, Taylor or anyone else, then used their 1st next year to get a QB. But NOOOOO! They've gotta do it their way with much support from the fans, many here, about "their guy." Well Manuel was "their guy" too under a different tag-team. The bottom line is that they clearly don't know what they're doing in the same manner that anyone that foolishly thinks a new stadium is forthcoming. Neither do the Pegulas, but that's another matter altogether. What the franchise doens't need right now is this. It'll be a minor miracle if they can turn this around by the end of 2020 much less keep their jobs til then. At that point we'll be in the option years for the lease when I doubt that any respectable coach or GM will want to touch this franchise and its 20+ years of abject misery. This is a classic example of what happens in style-over-substance management. As I started, they whiffed miserably at team building, actually, seemingly going in reverse, oddly. At this point it's simply a question of who's next and when and whether they'll be the next two undeserving candidates or whether they'll actually know what they're doing.

He was stubborn with NP and it cost us the texans game. stick any QB in there to back up allen and we walk away from houston with a win.
