All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
He's a fifth-year veteran that has seen just about everything he's going to see.
No coordinator is going to push a button and stop Josh from chucking the ball downfield to a covered receiver instead of hitting one of the other three that are wide open over the middle or in the flats. That's all Josh.
Mahomes has Andy Reid who gave him the softest landing g into the NFL possible. PM went to the perfect spot for his success.
Burrow was a highly successful high school recruit and had 4 years of college ball winning the MVP and the National title.
Both have solid foundations.
Josh's foundation, or lack thereof, is well documented. Wanted by no one except 1. Played in a cast-off conference in the least populated state in the lower 48. Raw talent coming into the NFL with questionable mechanics.
Daboll was his cheap man's Andy Reid, but at least it was something.
And now Josh has an OC who is still finding himself in this league and a defensive minded HC. It's no surprise that Josh is reverting to bad form. The foundation isn't there to be on his own and I saw this coming.
Bull ****. We didn't lay a hand on Burrow. Josh was bleeding from being pummeled. I'm sure you'll say there were plays he had time. So what. I'm not defending him. He played like crap too. I'm just saying the statement that the Bills would of won with Burrow is asinine.

Sorry. I thought I replied to Yardrat. I agree with you!

Josh's foundation was putting in the work to get where he wanted to be. Constantly improving because he was putting in the time and effort. That may not be a foundation that has a pedigree or a coddling coach but it's still the foundation that led to him walking off the field in the KC loss as the best player in the entire league. Instead of building on that, he regressed, and he doesn't need a babysitter to make him aware of that.
5 years of observations of 'we lost' or 'we didn't win like we should have' because of 'Dumb Josh', 'Bad Josh', and 'Hero Ball Josh' showing up and all of sudden it becomes "NOT JOSH'S FAULT, FIRE THE COACHES!!"

Burrow embarrassed our 'top ranked defense' behind a line of second team scrubs by getting the ball out quick and not making himself a sitting duck. That was a huge factor in the outcome.

Look, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't trade Josh Allen for any QB in the league. It sucks to look at KC and Cincinnati and admit we're just not that good. It sucks to look at Mahomes and Burrow and say Josh just isn't that good. But that is the reality we watched on Sunday and live with today.
Josh regressed this season and he failed to take that next step that Mahomes and Burrow already have. He needs to correct that and come back next year and play at the level that puts us and him back into the conversation.
And that's on him. Not coaching. Not the rest of the roster. Him.

I’d trade Josh for Mahomes and not even have to think about it. That’s not a shot against Josh, he’s just not at his level right now.
COMING SOON...

That is ridiculous and I'm not trying to defend his play. Burrow had all day to throw. Josh had someone in his face all day. Swap QB's and the results the same.
1000% correct. Ravens were in Burrows face all game and they won on a lucky defensive play.
My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.

And the times the quick throws weren't open he still had all day to find his 2nd or 3rd option. I'm not defending Josh. His bombs away mentality is pissing me off too. Someway somehow that has to change. I just vehemently disagree that putting Burrow on the Bills and changing nothing else would have changed the outcome.
