Kind of bummed that NE will get one of the top picks. But I also think Williams and Maye are overrated.

 

I watch a lot of UNC and Maye def has skills but not sure how it will translate to the NFL - esp with a trash team I think he will struggle

Well you have been building him up pretty high. Comparing his "success" to Josh, which makes no sense. How has he proven to have bigger success than Josh?

Huh? I said some people complain about how bad Allen’s surrounding cast is and not a single person wanted a Texans skill player before the season. 
 

with all due respect, you’re making up arguments. Never said he was better than Allen (who is a top 3 qb and said Stroud might be top 5, though it is insanely earlier I know).  
 

the Texans were picked to win like 3 games. Stroud is a legit MVP. It’s nothing against Allen. And our surrounding cast isn’t that bad either.

That the Patriots beat the Bills says volumes about the Bills. The Bills don't belong anywhere near the playoffs this year.

Dolphins going for it on 4th down twice inside the Wash 20 to get the TD, already up 23 points with 2 mins left seems like a dick move

I will admit I was not a fan of the team built around Stroud. Yet he was still my top QB going into the draft.

Because outside of Hopkins who does Tennessee have to pass to?

I watched him in college. Never impressed. He was older, too much muscle (I think that is a legit problem for qbs), and very inconsistent. 
 

he was like a poor man’s Allen. And Allen is the ultimate unicorn. I would be shocked if he becomes anything more than a backup

Dorsey. It was all Dorsey. Shouldn't have even been close at the end of the game.

Bills were kinda like that for a couple years, when they were good.

Kind of...but I think most teams would kick FG.  Just something about the whole dolphins team that bugs me.

Titans TD.

 

Tannehill holding for the extra point... which is missed. 25-25.

[Nitro]

Stroud is taking a beating.

Pre Ken Dorsey, yes.

He was over hyped in the draft as was the kid the Colts took. Yet he fell to Round 2 which not horrible value. I agree Allen is an exception not a rule when drafting QBs.

I just think there’s some narrative that we have bums surrounding Allen. I would love to have a poll who would have traded Davis for a Texans receivers before the season. 
 

and it’s no knock against Allen. I just think it’s pretty special what Steoud is doing on a team that was complete garbage the last few years. And he’s doing it with his arm so it seems legit.

we’ll see. 

[Unforgiven]

and of course titans miss the pat, because, of course

Sure, but as the season has gone on we see that Stroud’s cast isn’t too shabby at all.  Nico Collins is great, Tank Dell is cool, Dalton Schultz is a savvy vet, etc
