Erik Gustafsson is reportedly planning on testing the UFA market next month, according to David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period.
There apparently haven't been any contract talks between the Flames and Gustafsson. That could change before free agency opens on Oct. 9. The Flames acquired Gustafsson from Chicago prior to the trade deadline. Gustafsson had six goals and 29 points in 66 games last season.

You know i think he gets a bum rap in the media and I can see he's polarizing here, but I think if you do the research, he's doing bigly good.

I'm speaking of Josh Allen of course

biggest issue coming into the season

he is inaccurate




I have always felt this was a non story, as he had crap wr's in wyoming, and looked bad when he played the "better" ncaa teams


his first season, we literally had the worst wr group in football


last season big steps and with the same improvement from year 2 to 3, we could expect what we saw yesterday

- navinrjohnson


No, not really
His biggest issue was getting the ball out in time bc he couldn’t read defenses quickly enough
That’s what has always led to his inaccuracies,
even at Wyoming

Not saying he didn’t look good yesterday
He looked really good
But it was against a crappy Jets defense
So let’s appreciate it for what it was,
and see what the rest of the season brings

if they can't run by week 3, I'd be a little worried


right now it was week 1, mixed with the entire preseason yesterday


bigger issue IMO is lack of LB depth

Any word on the injuries from yesterday?
Haven’t paid attn at all today

Criticism comes with the job, and I think pretty much everyone said he had a good game, but still has things he needs to clean up.

Day to Day, kinda hard to have depth when 4 get hurt in 1 game.

Colin Cowherd did his power rankings on Friday and had the Bills out of the Top 10 for one reason: "Josh Allen scares me." That seems to be largely the national sentiment. If I were a "doubter", I would need to see more.

Yeah, hopefully atleast 1 of Milano or Edmunds can play, I mean I want both, because AJ looked slow in coverage.

Play a 4-2-5 all game?
Or even a 5-1-5 lineup

John Wall apologizes for being seen in a video at a party throwing up gang signs.

His Bullets, er, Wizards uniform would suggest that he runs with the Bloods, but perhaps he is rolling with Jimmy and Timmmmy(!).

Yeah, his takes suck. But let's be honest here, he's not the only one that has said Allen could be the biggest thing to hold back this team.

Josh Allen is going to get one of his receivers killed. He can not put the ball where it needs to be consistently. So many plays could go for long RACs but don’t because the receiver has to adjust for the catch many times falling down or getting crushed afterwards. Missing wide open receivers in the end zone isn’t a little thing. Accuracy for a QB isn’t a little thing. Hanging onto the ball isn’t a little thing.

I like Josh Allen. He is fun and a gamer, but we’re never going to win in the playoffs with him. He has succeeded because of the team around him. If we had a true top ten QB we would be Super Bowl contenders.

And the play calling is as bad as always. Putting Josh in dangerous situations when up by three scores is the sign of a moron making the calls.

A little creativity could help if we have LBs out
Thankfully it’s Miami next week & not a team like Seattle or KC
