Thank you. Allen, Jackson, and Hurts are very similar in how their careers have been - got a lot of hate and made themselves into MVP caliber qbs. That’s impressive. 

Let’s not act like you didn’t give Josh a lot of hate for awhile. You were saying the same junk about Allen as others are saying about Jackson.

Loud mouths and dirty hits 

I haven’t seen them do much yapping and posing since their Lord and Savior went down.

I'd much rather the NFL did away with it but it's too late now, too much money involved. 

 

Crazy thought-I'd rather see more Sunday morning games overseas than Thurs night football. Tailgates are even better when there's a game on.

What would you rather watch on Thursday nights?

That's because they have solid competition in their division...unlike a certain AFC West team.

I’m leaning toward injuries as the major factor for both teams mediocre records

I agree...primarily.  But without competition within your division, you could end up on top despite the injuries.

Another drone.  Maybe Jim’s not the only Harbaugh stealing signs. 

[Dick_Cheney]

Chase without a single target tonight.

Even with good teams TNF is bad football. Just not enough time for players to recover 

Cincys been struggling all year people just assume starting slow and getting hot is always gonna be their thing so they’re way overvalued.  This is a pretty big mismatch in baltimores favor imo

My stalker is back!!! And I 100% did. Would do the same thing if the bills ever draft an another guy who completed 56% passes from the mountain west and hadn’t developed a qb since Jim Kelly. 
 

and guess what? Allen is better than I could ever imagined. So guess what I stopped doing? Hating on him (more about that type of prospect and the Bills than Allen). And if he won a MVP after winning Heisman while winning 70% of his games and kept hating on him, I would think I was an idiot.

He just caught that long pass out of bounds on the last drive

Huh? He has 4 targets and 1 catch for 10 yards. Still low but not nothing.

The one thing we don't want is the Ravens to be resting everyone vs the Dolphins.  We need that to be an important game for them.

They have been losing all year (top 3 lowest time losing all time through 10 games), a rookie is on pace for over 900 yards, and Edwards was on pace for around 1,000. And they about to be 8-3.

 

lamar sucks though because he slipped tonight though! But clearly, you aren’t a hater! 

 No Lamar sucks because he has had 45  TD passes (including tonight) the last 3 years whereas Josh has had 90 and some feel they should be called equals.

People love Lamar runs and gets credit for it yet Josh does and he's putting himself at risk. 

I think the distinction for me anyway is that the Ravens offense requires it of Jackson

 

And not for nothing but they're different kinds of runners wrt avoiding contact

No Lamar requires it to be effective as he's not an above average passer. I agree they different runners, Lamar is a running QB like Vick was and Josh is a QB who runs like Elway was. To me totally different players.

His 118 qb rating against the bengals sucks!!! 
 

It’s just hilarious you keep comparing them. This is wild but both guys could be good. 
 

but honest question, would rather have the Bills be 8-3 and Allen have Lamar’s stats (and his terrible 3rd best mvp odds) or what we have right now? You seem awfully hung up on numbers.

So now that guy who is completing 70% is a below average passer!!! You’re killing it tonight!

I'll keep the Bills because Lamar's teams have not done much in the playoffs but I know, that's not on him.
