That Aud Smell Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 @Randall Flagg did you say Edmunds starts season as 2nd string?! Kid’s green, but an absolute freak out there. Preseason week 3 will determine a lot. Given this first half, it’ll be hard to keep Allen off the field. The opponents in weeks 1-3 (4?) counsel in favour of sitting the kid. But ....

Hoss Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 McCarron broke his collar bone so looks like it’s Peterman or Allen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s gonna be really good once the game slows down a bit. 4 minutes ago, Hoss said: McCarron broke his collar bone so looks like it’s Peterman or Allen. I read hairline fracture. So maybe he’s back in 4 weeks (?). Peterman was really good in mop up time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFIVEOH Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 I recorded the game. Don't even know the result. Just finished up the first half. Seeing what Josh Allen has to offer, he has ha massive arm and a ton of confidence. I'm super impressed so far. I'm a huge fan of pocket passers, which he is, He reminds me of Jim Kelly and JP Losman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were expecting to have both Incognito & Wood on the O-line when the off-season started & though they addressed other holes in the lineup, the line is, at present, a train wreck. Would much rather have Peterman get the snot kicked out of him than the guy that, should they develop him properly, be THE man for the next decade +. About the time Peterman breaks, McCarron should be available to take his licks. Give Allen the last 2 starts of the year & let a new era begin. TRULY don't see a QB playing behind this line for 16 games and surviving. (TRULY hope that's incorrect as well.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel the same way, but if any of the 3 guys has the build to survive that O-line its Allen, but Petermann doesn't look bad either tbh. I'd start Petermann and try to trade McCarron when a team needs a QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If by green you mean currently not ready and currently playing terrible because of that, I agree. I don't think he's playing terrible. But even if he was, look at the LB depth chart and tell me there's legitimately a better option at the Mike. There isn't. Kind of like people would rather see Allen take his licks than watch Peterman, I'd rather let Edmunds learn on the fly than sit behind a practice squad caliber player.

Hoss Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) Haven’t seen it mentioned here but Kyle Williams suffered a right leg injury last night. He refused to talk to reporters after the game and was in a full cast on his right leg.

LGR4GM Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 It's no secret I'm not a big Josh Allen fan. That said he looked good last night. Granted it was against the browns in preseason but he made some good throws. His pocket presence was better too. On his sack he did exactly what he should, protected the football. I feel a little hopeful about him now and I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erickompositör72 Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 I like the theory that if JA had a full career with a top college team, he would have gone 1st overall. Maybe not true and/or hyperbole, but it gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But also ignores the purpose of a “what if.” Based on where he comes from and his development he never had a shot. Maybe if he elected to transfer before his final year but that would’ve been useless for him. Edited August 19, 2018 by Hoss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
