    Bills at Lions this Friday night on the NFLN at 7:00 but Allen won't play per McDermott.



    Per NFL Network 10:15 AM



    Josh Allen will not play in preseason games Per Mc D


    I guess it will be the Mitch Trubisky show.

    He was good last season but I dont think its smart to pay a guy $150 Mill for one good season. Especially when that was an odd season like 2020 was. Good for Allen & his agent to strike quickly and take advantage of that 1 good season though.

    maybe it will work out for the Bills. Or maybe they will be paying an average or injured QB $40 million a season in a couple years. That would suck for them

    If you think about it. Allen got them to an AFC Championship loss. Sanchez did that here, 2 years in a row.

    How fucked would we have been if the Jets had given Sanchez $150 mill guaranteed for that? We were pretty fucked when he only got a $20 Mill contract extension. Several good players had to leave due to lack of cap space and Sanchez couldn't raise the replacement players level of play

    just some perspective

    Wow. He won't play in any of the 3 preseason games?

    That's awesome.

    He'll be rusty week 1 vs. Pittsburgh.

    Yes but he didn't play any preseason games last year and he had no trouble beating the Jets week 1. Besides Ben looked like he was done last year. I see the Browns and Ravens finishing ahead of the Steelers. The Bills should beat the Steelers week 1 in front of their home crowd.

    Beating the Jets last year shouldn't be a measuring stick for anyone

    Allen was treated like garbage by this Board the year he was drafted ...otoh Phil Simms knew he would be a Winner

    ROFL at what opinions Jet fan have

    Right now Allen trumps any QB the Jets have had in 5 years including the new kid in the Clubhouse ..so obviously the Bills made a wise choice in 2018 but Jets like myself got sold on Darn-Old

    Wilson has blond hair like Phil Simms so maybe we get lucky

    To be fair, Allen is on a team that is far better than any team we've had in the past decade.

    Youre a good poster and not an idiot. Man, this comparison is bad though. One guys team had the #1 defense and offense revolves around ground and pound while limiting the time the qb threw the ball, and the other literally RAN through the qb, with no running game to speak of, an average defense and the qb having to be the entire show. Yet you compare them bc they both played in the same afc game? Lol come on

    Bills defense is above average

    Allen wasn't the "entire show" ... that Stefon Diggs guy is pretty good. You may have heard of him. Allen was pretty average until he got there. We will see how long he likes being paid like a slightly average WR though

    The offense ran through Allen and you know that. You can just admit that it was a bad comparison instead of trying to find other things to discuss to derail the point.

    With the exception of Mahomes I would take Allen over any other QB in the league factoring in talent, and age. I hate that he is on the Bills being a Jets fan but he is one of the best QB's in the game. Anyone who says otherwise isn't being objective.

    Guys, Allen led his team to 13-3 and accounted for 46 TDs last year.
    The year before he went 10-6, which included a loss to us when they rested their starters in week 17.

    Is it really that hard to admit they have a solid FQB who is getting paid the going rate?

    It is not the "going rate" though. It is literally the most guaranteed money ever.

    What Buffalo Bills forum do you post on?

    What's your username over there?

    • Too ashamed and embarrassed to let us know?

    Answer my questions because if not I'll never stop quoting you... Just to ask.

    I have to admit, it's pretty entertaining to have a Dolphins fan stalking a Bills fan while posing as a Jets fan on a Jets fan board.

    Hey man. You're ok with him having a username of "Bills over Jets" in order to harass a longtime suffering fan base but you're not ok with me giving him a taste of his own medicine? Cool. Nice to know. .

    PS: I'm not really going to quote him 24/7 just wanted to give him a piece of my mind as he laughed at our favorite Football team. :D

    Him supporting a RACIST pos scumbag of a hillbilly redneck QB in Josh Allen?

    That I was serious about.
