ESPN BET which is basically ESPN+$+$.

 

 

Teddy Bruschi is a clown. “Every time you say Josh Allen, I believe you can insert Patrick Mahomes…. we’re talking about the same beast here… I’ve see. Patrick Mahomes make runs like that…”

 

No Teddy. You haven’t. Wtf is he on about? Woody literally just before, for those that didn’t listen, said about Josh “whatever way you want to play… air it out, throw it all over the yard? He can do that! Want him rumbling and tumbling all over the field? He can do that!”

 

Pat ain’t rumbling, tumbling and running over, around or through any defenders. They choose not to hit the guy when he does scramble.

Rex Ryan: "44% of the time he runs as a ball carrier he's run for first downs. There's no player in the history of the National Football League that can say that. Only Josh Allen."

Did not know that. Yet another incredible stat. Gives more context to Rex's comments about "best football player."

 

When Rex made that known, Teddy had a look of distaste on his face 😂

Agreed.  Everyone talks about the 13 seconds game, but Allen played near perfect football in last year's playoff game against a really good Chiefs' defense...there were four huge drops by the WRs (and Cook), and of course the Bills' defense was just bad.  

Defense has easily cost us 2 games in the playoffs against the Chiefs.

Josh Allen's buddy T*m Br*dy should explain it to Teddy; clearly he has comprehension problems and Br*dy probably knows how to talk to him so he understands.

 

You do not think Teddy is acting like an idiot like wrestlers in WWE ?

He probably only comprehend what Brady says lol

Brady absolutely loves Pat. 

But yeah, there is an Element on an act. He gets it. He’s a legend of a player and knows the game in his heart. I’ve bumped into him a few times over the course of attending games, he’s not the knucklehead he can appear to be lol
 

He just absolutely hates seeing any team other than the Patriots get some credit. I admire it to an extent but you’re on a nationally syndicated program as a panel member. Not a Patriots driven talk show. Got to have some neutrality to the game.

Lamar looks to me more like the best football player while not being the best QB. 

 

Some of you don’t deserve Allen and deserve to be banned from earth.

Yeah, what a ridiculous statement he made. Please point to a single Pat Mahomes run that is anything like what Josh Allen routinely does nearly every week. Mahomes can be an effective scrambler for sure, but he is not a runner like Allen is. He has NEVER had a run like Allen's yesterday.

Lamar is definetely in the conversation, but Allen is more of a complete player. 

And you call Josh Allen by his last name and Jackson by his first. That is an insult.

[TheFunPolice]

Rex wants to come out of retirement to coach the Jets. 

 

So I can't take him too seriously

I know this is a popular take but I don't get it.

 

McD and his coaches have a routine.  They study film a certain way, run meetings and practices a certain way, build teamwork a certain way, develop game plans in a certain way, etc.  It's a "process" based on years of wisdom and experience that has been proven to work.  The Bills follow the same process in the postseason that they follow in the regular season.

 

Reid has his own process that's probably very similar.  It also works - Reid and McD are the winningest coaches over the past few years.  

 

So what happens in the playoffs?  Does Reid have a "turbo boost" that's only available to him in the playoffs that magically makes his way of preparing a team better?  Did Reid's secret button make Bass miss that FG or Diggs drop that long ball last year?  

 

You need a sample size of at least 30 for an analysis to be scientifically valid.  Reid and McD haven't played each other that many times.  Most of the games are close and often determined by a few feet or seconds or injuries here or there.  I'm not convinced KC is playoff-better.   It could very well be just random gridiron luck.

   

 

I think this is a HUGE point that just gets ignored in the "all that matters is how many rings you have" blinders view.  Same as taking the Bills 0-3 vs KC playoffs and just ignoring any context.  Most SB runs involve a lot of luck and circumstances.  Factoring just Bills alone, KC doesn't have two of their rings without the miracle of 13 secs and the Bills having no LBers last year - and there's plenty of other examples other games.  Yet it all gets boiled down to "Mahomes is the best in the universe wihtout peer bc he has 3 rings!" (even though rings and wins aren't QB stats regardless) and the Chiefs are this unquestioned greatest team by some even though as we've seen even this year the luck they've had (and assistance from refs)

True to form with Rex, those are two things that make a lot of sense until you start to think about them.

Lamar had a "4th and 2" play when he took the designed run for the two point conversion yesterday.... where he ran into a wall of Steelers and threw the ball towards his lineman. lol

[Ridgewaycynic2013]

Bruschi's just miffed because Josh Allen actually does all the things that Super Tedy Bruschi supposedly could do.

He wouldn't have made it through the arm tackles. Someone wrote that tackling Allen was like throwing yourself in front of a race horse.

I've tried to make the same point here many times in the past but much less successfully. Cheers.
