Josh = Phil Rivers (just messenger)

[Over 29 years of fanhood]

I’ve spoken with numerous fans of football, many teams…. 
 

Common consensus is Allen is an afterthought. Somewhere between Rivers and Newton. 
 

Mahommes is new Brady, Burrow is new Manning….

 

so far it all holds up. 
 

sucks we could’ve had that guy

I don’t see Allen as an after thought at all. He was many reporters 1st overall QB entering the season. He was the MVP favorite. We got numerous prime time games because of him. He has a national commercial (gillette). He is playing at Pebble Beach and was in the celebrity golf match with Brady, Rodgers and Mahomes last season.

Allen is more Favre to me. 

 

In some respects they're not totally wrong. 

 

Mahomes has proven to be the Michael Jordan of this era. He is a mega-star. 

 

Burrow is the processor, the high football IQ, throw to the open man.

Step away from the keyboard before you hurt yourself

Definitely more farve

 

What people tend to forget about Brett Favre is he was dismissed early in his career whenever he was a falcon. I believe I could be wrong on the team, but basically he wasn’t much thought of.

 

Josh Allen has similar traits similar playing style and had to prove himself just a little bit more than some of these other guys

Burrow actually kinda sucks in the playoffs. His stats impress no one.

These sound like the opinions of simpletons who just regurgitate the sports talking heads, talking point du jour.

What possible value is consensus of your knee jerk opinion and the partisan fans of other teams, about our HOF QB, who has played through a serious elbow injury and came up short when the rest of the team stunk up the field in a snowstorm. Did you consider that Josh is 26 and has been in the playoffs 4 out of 5 years, winning 5 playoff games. What was Rivers and Newton’s records through 5 years? Josh set records for  TDs passing and running combined  this year with an injury that most QBs would have sat out the rest of the season. Your post is silly and you embarrass yourself with it as a fan of this team. Josh puts this mediocre roster on his back and wins 14 games. Tell the numerous, clueless fans you speak with, those comparisons are insulting to you as a Bills fan , if you really are one.

Can he be Big Ben instead?

I think the OP is doing a parody of some sentiments that are out there.  I hope that's it.

 

Speaking to that sentiment - fans do it way too much.  Allen is Allen.  Mahomes is Mahomes. Using the same logic, Burrow is Burrow.

 

Fans & pundits can't resist comparisons and "this guy is the next that guy."  No one is.

Nah op is saying what a bunch of football fans said about the different QBs in the league

So far, Allen hasn’t gotten it done, Maholmes IS the unquestioned best, Burrow looks to be #2 at this point and he’s actually taken Maholmes down in their biggest games.  Allen has yet to beat Maholmes in a meaningful game.  I think Allen is more Farve than Rivers, he’s got that wild man to him, he’s fun to watch, he tries to do it all and his team is built just like GB, all the resources dedicated to anything but weapons on O and there are plenty of teams that are better overall, so he has to be perfect.
