I don't hate Zach. I pity him.

I believe both of those things. I still don't see any reason for removing the cushion of having two warm bodies in front of Allen on the depth chart. Performance of those warm bodies is irrelevant. Regardless of the "why", they acted stupidly.

So Beane valued a 5th round pick more than he valued not throwing his raw rookie QB to the wolves? A 5th round pick for Josh Allen's elbow.

I don't care if they were planning to throw this season in the toilet. Why was Allen playing when he needed more time and the season didn't matter anyway?

It's all dumb. That's the point. They are feckless morons.

So the better option was to trade him so that you had no choice but to start your rookie QB and then get him hurt? Sounds dumb as sh*t to me.

He didn't have to outplay Peterman. He didn't even have to outplay Allen. He just had to stand there and take as many sacks as possible.

So what if he got "outplayed"? The plan, supposedly, was to develop Allen. Which means Allen was supposed to be #3 behind Peterman and McCarron regardless of whether or not both of them are trash (they are). They were signed to be red-shirts in a tank season. And then they decided to bail on that plan immediately and force their rookie QB in. So the plan was for Allen to start games. It's the only justifiable reason for getting rid of your 2 QB buffer in front of him in the lineup.

I will continue to assert that McBeane are incapable of evaluating offensive talent.

Correct. If Allen was supposed to sit then why did they trade McCarron? Easy: because they never intended for Allen to sit this season out.

Hmmmm let's see if the dead pool gets a winner today....

Time to trade Shady.

If I can't grab a nap after work today there's no way I'm gonna make it.

Maybe if it wasn't all somehow intrinsically and inseparably connected...

It's because if you talk about God and The Troops enough it makes you a good person. American Patriotism 101. I will continue to assert that McBeane have no idea how to evaluate offensive talent.

So what do we think the team does if Allen is out for any considerable time? Gotta think trading Shady becomes much more reasonable since winning with our other QB's is terribly unlikely.

Man, this kinda stuff just gets me. I love hockey.

God he's fun to watch. His skating is so smooth and effortless.

It's not gonna happen. They like him.

Thank God I didn't watch a moment of this game.

Great bounce back win.

I haven't been this satisfied with our goaltending situation since... Miller and Biron?

I don't think I've ever seen delay of game called for sending it over the glass behind the bench

It was somewhat unsettling watching them get drizzled
