Now I want to punch him in the face even harder, thanks.

Matt Prater is still mystified.

Maybe I'm a little old school, but I think it's a tad early for him to be talking so much smack.  He hasn't done anything in this league except get a ton of rushing yards on broken plays.

 

Brady talks smack because he's earned the right to.  I think Josh Allen very well could get there ... but he's not there yet and I find this to be a little immature and unprofessional at this point in his young career.

 

There was smack talking????

 

I'm so confused 

 

 

Geez, you must think Phillip Rivers is Satan incarcerated.

Nope.  But he's a first ballot HOFer who's earned the right to talk smack.

I always wondered if they were in the players around them that they are mic’d up. it was funny when he told Anderson the feds were hot and then said I’n Mic’d up today. ?

We have all been waiting 20 years for a guy like this in Buffalo.  It genuinely feels like we have a franchise QB in every way.    

 

He may still burn out or whatever, but at this point he is showing every skill and intangible we've been hoping for.  The sky is the limit (assuming they can put some talent around him).

I mean watching the plays especially when he's running more it seems pretty clear he's smack talking. But it's just the way he plays and he doesn't do it outside the game to the media.

Once again, (although I didnt reply to you with my statement so perhaps you missed it up thread) there is no earning the right to talk smack.

He very likely has been talking like this since Pee-Wee football.  He probably talked like this playing football in MS, HS, and college.  If it is a part of his game, there would be no reason to change it now.  That's how he plays...how he motivates himself and his teammates.  Seems to be working his way towards putting a C on his jersey.

They probably wouldnt put that in the video anyway, but the whole idea of earning the right to talk smack is dumb. It is usually done to either pump themselves up which in turn can pump their teammates up, or to get in the mind of the opposing player. None of which needs to be earned.

Perhaps what Gugny meant to say was it helps to have a body of successful work behind you before anything you say on the field really matters. 

 

On another note, I'm VERY concerned that he doesn't know what to do with his hands.

So when Kiko Alonzo talks smack to him, he is supposed to say “Thank you Mr. Alonzo, May I have another.”  Screw that.  Give that sh** right back.  Never give the impression they are in your head!

Can Kiko Alonso even utter a complete sentence?

McDermott talked about how Josh is already the leader of the offense. I'd be pretty surprised if he isn't one of the captains next year.

 

 

They don't get into a lot of his trash talking in the video, he's mostly encouraging guys, but it seems pretty clear he's a little bit of a talker. Someone on the jets said he was talking trash. I'm sure guys are giving it to him, so I don't see the problem. As long as he keeps his head in the game and it doesn't lead to mental mistakes. 

 

I appreciate how little he says to the media. When they ask him about other teams or players, he's always complimentary. Once you get between the lines though, let it fly.

Except Rivers talked the most smack when he was a rookie and hadn’t done crap.  Opponents hated him

1. That may lend more credibility to his smack talk, it doesnt mean he has to earn the right to smack talk, talking smack is a tool and can be used by whoever wants to, how impactful that is is another story and also depends on who they are saying it to

 

2. LOL

My point is that no matter how much smack a player talks, nothing speaks louder than your play. Smack talk, one way or another, doesn't require any validation. Anyone with a big mouth can talk smack and one doesn't have to do anything to earn the right to do it as you say.

So he can be called trash and be completely lambasted by everyone but he can’t talk back? He’s been told he sucked his whole life and look where he is now. Talk away buddy. And if he busts, well I guess they’ll be right and that will shut him up. 

He is completely respectful off the field and never has a discouraging word to say outside of the lines, but inside, that’s his field and he is trying to own it. Head games are real.
