    We’re talking about JD? I thought we were talking about Simms. Either way if you are going to question either one I figure a fan message board would be where to do it.

    I don’t know but he’s holding up pretty good. Can’t say I would look as close to sober as possible under the same circumstances. Maybe that should be positive on his scouting report.

    I was an allen supporter so could have been said in jest. context is key. I also wasn't high on allen to start but the more film I watched the more I loved him. case in point

    Actually just bumped the 1st thread since it's 34 pages of arguing about the QBs so interesting since we are in the same spot now

    To be fair, I don't think most would have your colleges booster clubs shoveling over a manila envelope filled with cash to pay for the legal fees. He does look like he can withstand pressure pretty well though as there's nearly a smirk in there.

    It was said in defence of Mac and in a Mac thread, in fact, it was in Mac's fired thread.

    But without opening up old wounds it is pointless giving up as evidence the Allen v any QB over Mayfield thread, now that is context right there lol

    If you can't see how obvious it is we're taking Wilson at this point you're deep in denial.

    Looking forward to all the revisionist historian Fields fans when we take Wilson on draft night. Receipts are being kept.

    I'd have to find the thread. I was a big allen supporter. in one of the links I posted I said stay at 6 and take allen or trade down for lamaar. both would have been better options. I'm reading through the allen vs mayfield thread though. it's pretty funny to look back on it since it's happening again with fields/wilson

    It was awful enough the first time around, I have no wish to read it again and it will only be worse with hindsight applied.

    No, the only one wrong is the one who said that Douglas literally confirmed he was picking Wilson.

    What does us taking Wilson have to do with being a Fields fan? I was holding out hope for Allen until the final second the we turned in our card for Darnold. That doesn’t make my hope revisionist history. You guys are weird. lol

    Isn't it obvious? All the Fields fans are ignoring blatantly obvious signs we're taking Wilson, under the guise of "JD hasn't actually confirmed it!". Yeah no shit. Connect the dots though.

    I understand preferring Fields but if you can't see the writing on the wall at this point you're in denial or being purposefully obtuse out of saltiness.

    based on what? Records? stats? Accuracy ? Reading Defense? I mean these are two different style of QBs where it’s working extremely well for the Bills and Ravens. I am sure both teams are extremely happy with their own. So now one is better than the other for what purpose? Am I missing something here?

    Why does it bother you that someone is hoping for a different outcome from what’s being reported? Do what Fields fans eat make you shit? You can go buy your Wilson jersey 3 weeks before the draft but the rest of us don’t have to. Weird AF

    I posted the following on a different thread but it’s applicable here:

    i'm only halfway through it but it's pretty bad. the same posters attacking anyone who didn't agree with mayfield being better and how allen has 0% chance to be good and baker is a HOFer lol. I mean all of us said some wrong stuff in that thread but the same people shitting on allen are the same one's shitting on wilson and being dicks about it to anyone that likes wilson. guess some things never change

    It doesn't bother me at all. People can hope for whatever they want. What I'm more interested in is determining what is most likely to happen, not what I want to happen most. The two things just happen to coincide this time.

    I don’t know; I can make the case that Allen can help you win in more ways from a grind it out defensive field position battle to an air it out barn burner. So far under Lamar once BAL is down by a couple touchdowns, the game has been pretty much over. A 14 point deficit may as well be a 30 point deficit.

    Well good for you. You continue to be interested in that and those that want to hope will continue to do that as well. I don’t understand why that is cause for conflict.

    There's no conflict. I just find the coping mechanisms among Fields fans interesting. It's clear to any objective observer that a lot of different things point to us taking Wilson.

    The last few pages of this thread could be a behavioral psychology case study.
