Rochesterfan Posted February 21 Posted February 21 And what if instead of this stupid thought process that the “fans” have - we look at the fact that Josh seems to really like playing for McD and Beane. Maybe he has spoken to ownership and stated his preference to play for these guys. Maybe - he realizes that the last several years he has had the ball at the end of the game with a shot to tie or win and the lack of plays has been on him and the offense. He is always hardest on himself and that is part of the frustration - the game has been in his hands and they have not come away with the win. I think he realizes how much of a say he has - he gets input on players that stay and go and draft picks - he stated Coleman was his guy - he thought he would be a great fit and that is the guy they made work. If he wanted new coaching - he could talk to Terry and would before a change is made, but I believe the exact opposite - I think Josh likes McD and the freedom he gives the team and that helps ground him here. I also think you are more likely to see Josh leave if we make a change to a coach that doesn’t foster his attitude - someone like Bill Beli and his attitude. 1 1 Quote

If for instance his wife is making his life miserable, this means more than playing football 3,000 milies from home (if there is an option). Should he put his foot down if she makes it an issue and demand a divorce? And again,, we are talking about six years down the road. Expand In this scenario you've concocted Josh allows Haillee and the kids to go live in Los Angeles rather than in Buffalo where his job is and then she issues him ultimatums and his marriage depends on him playing for the Chargers or Rams? Why is she such a horrible B word in your fantasy? 1 1 1 Quote

This offseason, we should anticipate discussions about an extension. It's possible that Josh could express his desire to play out the current contract, which might lead Beane to trade him for four first-round picks, only to have those picks turn out to be busts. Expand First, Josh will be getting his 2025 salary guaranteed when they restructure it in a couple of weeks. At that time too, he gets his 2026 option bonus guaranteed. Josh will most likely sign a new contract sometime in the 2026 season. Removing the big "cap hit" for 2026 has no doubt been planned. 1 1 Quote

Buffalo716 Posted February 22 Posted February 22 (edited) Rob Johnson rented the suite at the Hilton for years lol you don't need to plant roots if you don't want to Josh isn't even a Los Angeles or San Francisco city kid He literally was raised in the small town of firebaugh, exact opposite of glitz and glammer He he doesn't need to be in Los Angeles to be happy and I'm pretty sure like Jim Kelly he's going to stay here and if anything hailee Steinfeld likes the small town love Josh can spend the off-season at his California properties like he always does but he's embraced Buffalo and he certainly is now considered an adopted son and one of our own Edited February 22 by Buffalo716 Quote

I liked the Huntington beach area. But close enough to LA to continue to grow her career but not in the middle of the city. I know that Josh lives in Encino I believe and she is pretty close to there. Expand Not Encino-- that's in the middle of the San Fernando Valley. He has a house in a gated community in Dana Point, which is South of Huntington Beach. If Josh Allen lived there year-round, he would not be playing football (unless he didn't mind driving about 3 1/2 hours every day). 1 Quote
