Definitely don't need Allen on thst list... Oh I definitely agree but he will at a minimum wind up with a gold jacket in Canton Ohio which is amazing from a guy with no college scholarship offers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His ball makes most NFL starters look JV by comparison. I remember when he first started playing, cameramen were so far behind his throws, it was like you didn't even see the ball on the screen it traveled so fast, you saw it once the receiver caught it. Took like 2 or 3 games for cameramen to get used to it. 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh is so unbelievable at times that after he retires I’m done with the sport I've thought about that too. He's so good that watching football post-Josh will be boring, no matter who they have. Luckily, he's 26, we get the next 7-10 years or so to enjoy this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny how on other games it seems the QB's struggle to throw passes of 25 yards or more and Allen simply flicks it 40 yards downfield like its a 10 yard pass.

However, and somewhat cruelly the league will now judge him on whether he wins consistently in the playoffs and collects any Lombardi trophies. All of the pieces, including JA himself, are in place. Time will tell if the Bills put a Super Bowl win and hopefully wins in the books. It's a shame time doesn't also judge Mahomes as a QB who has lost not one but two AFC Championship games on his home field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying I want to stop watching when Josh is done, but it’s going to be tough to really believe in anything after we’re seeing such greatness. id imagine if we had any real conversation with a Pats fan they probably feel the same way now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither was Johnny Unitas -who’s only Super Bowl TD was a fluke tipped pass and he quickly exited injured right after. WAIT! Yes they were. Ergo, your opinion is complete trash.

julian Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 2 hours ago, Gene1973 said: They are viewed in a diffetwnt light than the HOF QB's with rings IMO. Not sure how this is even debatable, of course we can all see Josh has the potential to be the greatest of all time if he keeps this pace and adds a ring and an MVP. Without those 2 things he may end up surpassing Marino as the greatest to never win and that would still be a first ballot HOF career. To me it’s not about Josh anymore, he’s proven to have maybe the greatest skills to ever play the position, it will be an organizational failure if 17 doesn’t win a ring and I’ll even say an organizational failure if he ends up with anything less than 2 rings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is, I can't recall if Beane informally shared this prescient gem in-person at Tempo to a guest plus us non-media workers, or if this confessional intel was uttered above-board via interview. 100% I remember him openly/"sarcastically" hoping that Allen kid/QB at Wyoming had a disappointing season so his draft value didn't elevate beyond their reach. Because I cannot find it online, and I have a clear memory of this humorous-but-honest quote being uttered between tables 2 and 5 as Beane was leaving, I'm forced to feel like i was privvy to his playful, but prescient admission: "Hope that Josh Allen kid at Wyoming has a bad senior season."
