That Aud Smell Posted July 7, 2022 Report Posted July 7, 2022 I recall reports - fwiw - that Beane would have preferred Darnold to Allen, but he wasn't getting up into the top-3 in order to get him. So they resolved to move up from 12 and choose Allen ahead of some other QB-needy team (Arizona, iirc). Accepting that as true: It's funny how random success can be in pro sports. OTOH, if Darnold had come into the McBeane-led Bills, maybe things go very differently for him. Maybe? (Who cares.) Also, it never gets old to shoutout Jeremy White's pre-draft devotion to Josh Rosen. What an absolutely brutal take for someone in the takery business. Allen and Jackson as the successful QB's from 2018 seem to confirm: Don't play it safe. Go get the guy with the upside.

Is the bolded the takeaway or is it make sure you get somebody competent working with the guy by year 2 at the latest to keep from ####ing it up. Maybe a bit of both. Could see Allen having developed under Gailey too, but could ANY of the other coaching staffs they've had this century have been trusted to help him reach his potential? Shudder to think what Jauron would've done to him. 1

That Aud Smell Posted July 14, 2022 Report Posted July 14, 2022 That looks fun. The NFL will presumably be learning a lesson from European soccer, where clubs with long histories tweak their main uniforms every year and come up with entirely new alternates/thirds every year as well. It’s like printing money.
Eleven Posted July 14, 2022 Report Posted July 14, 2022 Jeremy White this morning was mentioning a red Bills helmet. I really like the current look--it's very sharp. I'd rather they not tamper with it. 9 minutes ago, That Aud Smell said: That looks fun.

Porous Five Hole Posted July 14, 2022 Report Posted July 14, 2022 Honestly, I miss these. I like the current, but would be happy if they went back to red. 1

MISabresFan Posted July 15, 2022 Report Posted July 15, 2022 AFC East Main Helmet colors- Patriots Silver, Jets Green, Miami White, makes sense the Bills should go Red.

This may be the all time regretville move in Browns history. Mayfield is a good young QB who needs to grow up a bit. Good/potentially excellent QBs are a rarity. Nice work giving CAR a gold plated gift. 1 1

Doohicksie Posted July 25, 2022 Report Posted July 25, 2022 I'm mildly interested in that the Arlington, TX, team is playing in the old Texas Rangers stadium that's across the street from the new Texas Rangers stadium and also across the street from the Dallas Cowboys stadium, which is about a half hour drive from where I live. It will be interesting to see how they reconfigure it for football.

This is some record-level bad management, here. It's like Art Rooney is controlling Cleveland's team or something.
