FireChans Posted Friday at 03:27 PM Posted Friday at 03:27 PM (edited) These jamokes have edited their draft article about Josh. The title used to be: “If Josh Allen succeeds, the Bills will have outsmarted basically all regular humans and the entirety of math itself” now it’s this: “Josh Allen’s college career wasn’t great, but he’ll be a first-round pick anyway” https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2018/4/24/17271686/josh-allen-nfl-draft-2018-stats-analysis-comparisons We see you trying to hide the evidence Jason Kirk!

Even stupider, the article is WRITTEN after the Bills took Josh at 7. It’s the first paragraph. But they shadow edit the headline to “he’ll be a first round pick anyway,” like it’s pre-draft? I know I have too much time on my hands but still. 2 4 Quote
SF Bills Fan Posted Friday at 03:35 PM Posted Friday at 03:35 PM Most everybody has been proven wrong and a lot of crow has been consumed. I remember hearing some jokers on Austin sports radio here talking about how dead wrong they were on him and this was before he reached the MVP level that he is at now. Quote

Fleezoid Posted Friday at 04:04 PM Posted Friday at 04:04 PM (edited) That's the media for you. Truth, is only what they decide it is at any given time. And integrity is a word that has been erased from their vocabulary. Edited Friday at 05:18 PM by Fleezoid 3 1 2 Quote

RobbRiddick Posted Friday at 05:00 PM Posted Friday at 05:00 PM This really illustrates how all these jerks in the media care only about being proven correct and nothing else. They fall over themselves to get the clicks with their hot takes, then they're so desperate to be the ones to say "You heard it here first" or "I was right" that it clouds their view of said player for the rest of time. There were still guys desperate for Allen to regress this season so they could say the last several years were all down to Diggs 3 4 Quote

Politicians lie to our faces and try to scrub their content. In human history, truth has never meant less than it does now. I wish I believed that this behavior didn't have a trickle-down effect to the general public. 2 Quote

They refuse to be wrong but now too many people are realizing that they were and don't have someone to back them up. 1 Quote
K-9 Posted Friday at 05:13 PM Posted Friday at 05:13 PM Regardless of the change, both articles were/are not factual. There was never any doubt at all, AT ALL, that Josh Allen was gonna be a high first round pick. 2 Quote
ALLinALLEN Posted Friday at 05:19 PM Posted Friday at 05:19 PM Journo's are so weird to me, especially sports ones. Most to all journos have no pro sports background in playing or scouting so their opinions are no different than yours or mine. It's ok to be wrong but journos are so weird about that 1 Quote
