ShakAttack Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 I’ve watched this guys highlights and I think he’s a meltdown waiting to happen. Kinda like how Kyle Allen, Minshew and arguably Brandon Allen came down to earth once they faced a real defense. In Brandon Allens case that defense was of course the Bills. When I watch this guy all I see are screens and little dump passes. We know all about captain checkDowns; that strategy doesn’t last. Sooner or later he’s going to face a defense that will force him into some real NFL throws and we’ll see why he is an undrafted QB. I’ve watched some of his intermediate / long passes and they seem to hang in the air for an eternity; “a pick waiting to happen” as Jalen Ramsey once famously said about our boy Josh Allen (but for different reasons). To me, a poor man’s Doug Flutie even comes to mind when I watch him ? couldn’t resist. I think the NFL and fans just love these backup QB stories but the fact is, for all of them, they initially benefit from the lack of film available and sooner or later they face real adversity when a good defense takes away what they do well (and since many of these guys are one dimensional it becomes an issue) now, having said all of this, I am still nervous as hell about this game because on the flip side, our QB seems to ALSO struggle against real defenses... and the Steelers have one. I would give Buffalo the edge, but this may as well be a wild card playoff game, and it could get crazy. I don’t think I’ve been more nervous for a game this season. Heck I spent all of this past week being more nervous towards the steeler game than the ravens game! Dont know how I’m going to get through this week (and it’s also why I was bummed when we got flexed to SNF... don’t know how I’m gonna make it through the day anxiously waiting for the outcome of this game)

cDAVIS Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 i agree, i think delvin is going to run into hard times against buffalo, our coaching staff puts together a solid defensive game plan every week it seems. its really impressive. i am worried about JA a little but i think facing this Ravens team gave him a glimpse of what he will be seeing on sunday night. Lets Go Buffalo!!!!!! 1
Nick the Greek Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 He isn’t Big Ben, so I’m less worried. I think we can shut him down.
wvbillsfan Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 More worried about our offense against their defense. Ravens have a stiff defense. Steelers are even better. 9
JoPoy88 Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Duck doesn’t arouse too much concern. Pitt’s defense? Different story 3
Dr.Sack Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 If Allen completes under 50% of his passes we lose. We need Allen to be efficient. Duck Hodges doesn’t concern me. He’s a sitting duck if we bring the pass rush. 1
RiotAct Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 is that going to be a lyric in next week’s SNF Carrie Underwood intro song?
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Whoever wins the turnover battle will win this game. 3

billsfan714 Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Fitzpatrick took that D to another level......Watt is a constant concern. They are playing as well as anyone over the last 8 games 1
Flip Johnson Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 The Steelers can't beat you with their offense and they know that. Mason Rudolph was killing them. Hodges isn't killing them - they just hang in there and let their defense and ST try to win it. 3
Ralonzo Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) It's a helluva nickname for a QB. When someone yells "Hey Duck!" does he turn around, or hit the deck? Edited December 9, 2019 by Ralonzo 1
Sherlock Holmes Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 I'm worried about TJ Watt, can singlehandely win games 1
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Duck has a really nice deep ball too. He will dump it down mostly but will chuck it down the field too a lot.
ganesh Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 That TD he threw yesterday to the left corner of the endzone is a pretty big NFL throw.

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 He hasn't faced a good defense yet. He will on Sunday.
