Mickey Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 I'd love to know what he saw in Josh's game that he so strongly feels needs to be changed. More touch? Use the TE's more? Launch it earlier? Run less? Never pay retail?

Dude acts like hes was a HOF NFL QB or something. Hopefully JA doesnt listen to him. JA really needs to track down Jeff Tuel or Trent Edwards for advice on what he needs to do. 1

He broke down the defense and called his own plays that were usually the perfect offensive play call. The knowledge that Kelly could give Allen would be invaluable. Jim Kelly, Bruce Smith, Thurman Thomas, Daryl Tally and Andre Reed are fans of the Bills and want them to do well. I would say if any of these guys wanted to help out that they should have a green light to do so. Kelly also had an offense with 4 HOF'ers and I think 10 players that made the pro bowl. Let's get Allen some talent around him and he'll be just fine. That should be up to the coaching staff.
BuffaloBillies Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 I would love the BB to win the super bowl in JK's lifetime. My father's lifetime too.... aint many years left. Get it done!

And thats just the avg taking into account some people are in exhile or solitary and some are telemarketers. Id venture to guess professional football players often have conversations about... yep, you guessed it - football!!
MJS Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 Or the things he tells him will be valuable and help him develop... You have no idea what you are talking about. Ridiculous OP that has no bearing on reality.

Where I'm from we call that Mentorship. Same as Bruce Smith mentoring Miles Garrett, or other people who are experienced in various industries taking less experienced people under their wing.

Mikie2times Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 (edited) I think the OP has a point. All due respect to Jim, the game he is trying to give Allen advice on is not the same. It’s not even close. Maybe it doesn’t do any harm per say but why are we reading about this.....AGAIN? We know Jim loves football and Buffalo and we love him. But I get where the original poster is coming from. This is like the 3rd-4th straight QB Jim “needed” to speak with. Its a bit undermining to leadership even if the staff would never say it. Its a bit “keep me in the spotlight” even if Bills fans wouldn’t like to say it. If this wasn’t the case why doesn’t Jim privately schedule his conversation? Why do I always hear about his need to speak with our QB’s in the media first. Edited January 28, 2019 by KzooMike 2

oldmanfan Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 If I were Josh Allen I'd ask to sit down with Jim Kelly

Can't the old guard just go about their business quietly. Yes, why bother with people who made it work, far better to stay in the muck of 20 years of high suckitude Maybe bring in Flutie so Allen can be instructed in failure and unending self-pity

They had their chance to be champions and they blew it in historical fashion. Let the current players/coaches do their things and go find a hobby. Unless the HC approaches Kelly and asks him to speak to Josh Allen, then Kelly should mind his own business and stay out of Allen's ear. I'm sure he means well, but he needs to go dance on his own pole and let the CURRENT Bills do their jobs. 2 1
