Ravens fan hopping in to say... "told you so"... to all the doubting Bills fans from 4+ years ago...

[asyranok]

Just wanted to rub it in the faces of the Josh Allen doubters. I told you Ravens fans know an elite QB in the making when they see one. You might think seeing tons of good QB's on your team for decades is the best way to identify a future all star. But the real litmus test for being able to spot a pro QB is having the worst (or most disappointing and underperforming) QB's in the nfl playing for you for most of your life as a fan. Makes it all so much clearer when you see someone good who just needs some time.

I'll make sure to come back and rub it in your faces more after he wins you a superbowl.

Glad you were right. 

[Aussie Joe]

Is he better than Lamar is the real question

[starrymessenger]

Don't know about their fans but their front office/scouting since Ozzie has been pretty darn good. I was amazed that the second best QB in Josh's draft almost fell out of the first round. Ravens are a well managed organization.

They're both gold jacket Legends

Yes. There is a demarcation between the two but both are gold jacket QBs. 

 

 

Ozzie is going to get in the Hof as a GM imo 

[GoBills808]

wasn't that hard to see imo

Weird flex but why not🤷🏻‍♂️

There's a lot of receipts being saved about Allen.

[Steptide]

Man last season all I saw was "Tua is just as good as Allen" all over Twitter and social media. Now it's all about Lamar vs Allen. I could not careless. I do not give a shiz who wins mvp. Give me a freaking superbowl a million times

I can't say he's the best until he beats mahomes in the playoffs and wins the Superbowl. 

 

That's how it's always been 

[Mr. WEO]

look at this guy!

[Rico]

Josh is scary, Lamar is pesky.

 

Good thing for them, Derrick Henry is also scary.

They match Josh Allen up every year with a different elite qb which simply justifies his foundational greatest.  The one thing that annoys me the most regarding the Lamer/ Allen argument is Jackson's abysmal playoff performances. I think we as fans obviously would love to see Buffalo get their first QB MVP.  But the true objective I'm sure for JA17 is the Lombardi. 

[Dr.Sack]

Only thing that matters:

 

Lamar 2-4. 1-1 WC, 1-2 DIV, 0-1 AFCG

Allen 5-5. 4-1 WC, 1-3 DIV, 0-1 AFCG

 

Mahomes 15-3. 2-0 WC, 6-0 DIV, 4-2 AFCG, 3-1 SB

IMO, with the Bills vulnerability on D, Josh will need to be Superman for a month for the Bills to win the SB this particular year.   He can do it, but can he hold up for a month doing it.  Hope so.  

 

Next year all the Diggs, Miller, etc monsterous salary cap baggage goes away and Beane will be able to do in FA much of what he wanted to do for this season. 

 

This season has already been a success in my book.   Getting past Ravens, Chiefs, Lions on consecutive weeks?   Hard to see that happening.  Hope I am wrong.

I’m tired of people bashing the other QB over who’s had the better season.  Media doesn’t help it either.  Both Lamar and Josh are deserving of the award but unfortunately it only goes to 1 person.  Of course i want it to be Josh but if Lamar wins it he’s very deserving of it.  The “he has Henry” argument is ridiculous.  Allen has Cook who’s having a great year ass well.

Cook is nowhere the near the level of Henry though, and he has barely half the rushing yardage. To act like they're similarly impactful players is ridiculous imo

I'd push back on that. Lamar has not been abysmal in the playoffs. The Ravens have been. Every time he's been in the playoffs, I've felt like he was the only one making ANY attempt to win. The rest of the team around him just... chokes. Don't get me wrong, most of his playoff performances are on the "worst of his games" list, but he is always the only one in those games getting anything done. And then his team lets him down and he gets the lionshare of the blame for it for some reason.
