I most certainly do have an opinion. I have an opinion about every single one of these guys. But I trust Beane because of his evaluation ability. He clearly sees ability in this kid and he clearly sees traits than can be coached and developed. He has the ability to be the best qb in this class. He has ability to be a top QB in this league. It may take him a little while, but it's not out of the question.

If Allen was indeed "Bad" every time he played, why would the Bills pick him 7th? Why would Mike Mayock rate him the 9th overall prospect?

That’s actually amazing how you “knew” so quickly.

When you “knew” that was before Allen actually learned how to play QB

The last couple years his major problems were ....... making progressions, accuracy issues (bombing it 10 yards past the WR), and some mechanics he sorted out.

Basically anything to do with being an NFL Qb he struggled with.

You can say you liked his talent and drive. That would be true.

But NFL qb josh Allen only showed up 3 weeks ago.

- Sabretooth9


Josh Allen was the middle of the pack QB last year whom made enough plays to win with a great supporting cast.

This year Josh Allen is a top 10 QB who is willing his team to wins and not putting up 17-21 points and hoping the defence balls him out.

Josh Allen has taken huge steps as a passer this year.

58% to 70% accuracy
193 YPG to 346 YPG

Even if the accuracy comes down to 65% and the YPG comes down to 275 YPG that’s a night and day difference as a passer of the football.

I don’t think anyone doubted what he could do with his legs, now he’s doing it with his arm too

My favorite of yours:

If/when Allen is terrible, this Coach/GM (whoever made the decision) doesn’t deserve a second chance

Yes, this year he learned how to make progressions and fixed his accuracy issues.

The last couple years he was playing off of pure talent. Now in 2020, he’s an actual NFL Qb.

I also mentioned before the season started. If Allen learns how to hit deep balls. He would be on the mahomes category. If he didn’t. He would have a Dalton ish career.

(frank) Beane...
YOUR “PROCESS” IS BULLSH!T
Worst pick in Bills history
Worse than (frank)ing Maybin over Orakpo
Worse than EJ
I'm so pissed

Rosen might have concussion issues,
but Allen plays like he has one when healthy

Allen f#cking sucks
We are screwed

Seriously, just because you FINALLY recognized Allen's talent doesnt mean he wasnt good before your magical revelation.

You and like 2 other retards around here kept bashing him, despite him winning and coming from behind to win games.

You are thick in the head. You were still arguing after week 1. Which was 2 weeks ago genius.

Tooph9 your football takes suck

The talent was always there. You can say that about ever single bills qb drafted the last 20 years

Allen put it together this year. The previous 2 years he didn’t.

Stop being a bias homer.

Allen has looked fantastic in most categories this year, still needs to clean up the fumbles, hurt us again yesterday.

I tried to find it, but I know I said somewhere: "Of all the available quarterbacks in this draft, Allen was the one I wanted the least."

So, the face-value review appears as follows: Eichel doesn’t want out of BUF; BUF doesn’t want to trade Eichel; move along, nothing to see here. Fair enough. But some rumours are worth checking out/mentioning. Which I’ve now done. Now back to draft prep.

Eehhh... fun rumors and of course gm’s are gonna call. I think jack has one more year before it goes nuclear. And hopefully Adams has some more staal like trades in him to better this roster... about 12 days until we have a real idea of Adams metal...

Were you and I almost the only 2 who defended the pick?

My favorite reply so far:

Is that the San Jose State game they lost 20-17 as the last game of their regular season, which is the game Allen did not play in?

http://www.espn.com/colle...all/game?gameId=400945309

Did you also know that the coach runs such an outdated offense that they call him Craig NeanderBohl?

- kingcong39


I defended the pick as did a few others. I never cared about Rosen, USC QB's don't have a great record of being great in college and bringing that to the pros so I loved the arm, the size, athletic ability and how he knocked the intelligence test out of the park.

The Bills scored 19.6 PPG last year.

There are 6 teams in the NFL this year that have scored less than 20 points per game.

Broncos 0-3
jets 0-3
Texans 0-3
Giants 0-3
Eagles 0-2-1
Chargers 1-2
Redskins 1-2

That’s a combined record of 2-18-1.

The Bills went 10-6 last year scoring sub 20 points.

So Josh Allen gets credit for riding a Super Bowl caliber defence and not even getting a playoff win out of it ?

Yell at Sabretooth all you want but he’s absolutely right.

The Bills wasted one of the best defences in the NFL of that decade.

What’s next Boss. Are Trent Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Peyton Manning (2015) all elite because they rose the coattails of elite defences to Super Bowl Wins ?

Josh Allen this past 3 games is finally worth all the hoopla you guys have been giving him for 2 + years.

Enjoy it and stop crying because the facts showed an average QB last year.

Hopefully for your sake and the rest of Bills nation the results you have seen the last few weeks are indicative of what’s next to come.

He doesn't want out of Buffalo but wouldn't cry about a trade. It wouldn't look good for him to say publically he wants out but would no doubt love to get out. That is what I think. Why would Bob post that and add fuel to it?
