The Jets and the Bills are the future of the AFCE, and maybe even the AFC if these QB's evolve into the players I think they will. Miami is jogging in place, and NE is nothing without Belichick.
I've said this before, no waiting until Brady retires, beat them. Take control of this division away from them and be better than them. No riding off into the sunset
Jamal Adams is going to hit Brady so hard it will end his career like Steve Young's ended after the Aeneas Williams hit. For those to young to have seen Young's career end here it is.
Gotta be honest. I didn't care for Mayfield (or any of the QBs for that matter) but the guy I was LEAST fearful of going to an AFC East team was Allen. Add to that the fact that I think he'll be the first to step on the field, I have no worries. GRanted, he has upside and could end up being really good, but I think he's going to take ALOT of lumps before he gets there. Hopefully, those lumps come from our newly improved secondary. In fact, I want games vs buffalo to look like cold oatmeal. I want every it to look like Martin after he fought Tommy Hearns. I want it to look like shaving with a dull razor... ok sorry. but you get my point. I want us to make his life hell while he learns the position.
I think our Jets are being set up very nicely for AFCE success when Brady is a goner. Just hoping that comes way sooner than later.
Steve Young is a Mormon in a direct line from Brigham Young. Brigham Young, what a disgusting pig. No, no, not talking about the sins of the Father, which is very unfair; but anyone who believes this shit willfully deserves that hit.
Eh, not bad. I would've gone for the old my dog dry humping Brady's corpse, but maybe that's just me? :/
Unless they get surrounding talent, these two will end up the same as the last couple dozen "next superstar" QB's to enter the league. They may be very good, but they can't carry a team for 16 plus games.
Dolphins are going to be real bad this year. Will probably win 3 games at most. That should put them in a great position to draft a good QB next year. Will they though? Probably not. A new regime is likely going to come in and take the safe pick as always. I have zero respect for pussies who can't pull the trigger on a young QB when they are in position to get one. Aaron Rodgers and Matt Ryan come to mind. They should have been Dolphins. Tannehill is mediocre. I applaud the Jets and Bills for taking a chance on QBs. You keep drafting QBs until you get one. The backup Foles and those Ravens teams are the exceptions. It's almost always a great QB who wins the SB. Can't stand the philosophy of "building inside out" or "ground and pound". It's all bullshit really. You have to have the QB first.
I'd love to project either one of these guys, but it would be extremely difficult and a shot in the dark to do so. I don't believe Allen will have a long, successful NFL career, but who knows. Stranger things have happened. As for Darnold, I think he has a very good chance of being the next Andrew Luck, maybe better --- and hopefully without the shoulder issues. If he is, we will be winning a handful or more of AFC East titles over the next decade, once No.12 retires or finally hits the wall. Whatever comes first.
I stole this line immediately. Thanks! I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. I was terrified that the Dolphins or Bills were going to end up with Mayfield or that one would trade up for Rosen. I'm thrilled that we got Darnold but I think those two have star potential. I never thought it could work out as well as it did. Mayfield ended up in guaranteed irrelevancy, Rosen ended up out of the conference and a team in our division traded two picks to get the worst QB of the bunch. Things are going far too well... when's the other shoe gonna drop?
Reading the Bills' forums, it seems the majority of their fans wanted Rosen and are disgusted with the pick. The only one who liked the pick was Physco who had Pederman in the HoF.
Ideally Darnold is the next brady (although i see him of more of a rodgers type of QB but still) Allen is a bust Brady and bill hang them up and the pats fall apart the fins are doing a good enough job killing themselves so not too worried
