Let’s all be fair. If this was LAST year , regardless who the coach was, you would be happy with the Wilson trade .

Very high completion %, 5/1 TD to INT ratio and QBR of over 100. The yards aren’t there and the escapability isn’t as good as 5 years ago but it’s not terrible.

Have you changed your stance about wanting Russell , at least for one more year, before making up your mind if he is the right guy for the job ?

    He looks completely different than last year. Like a completely different person, and if I didn’t know any better I would say he is. Last year was so weird to watch. A competent, Super Bowl winning QB, that couldn’t make basic throws and looked lost. Almost like he had the yips or something. Wide open receivers 8-12 yards in front of him and the ball would be way behind, or skip 2-3 yards short. It was the most unusual thing I’ve witnessed in a long time.

    I honestly couldn’t care less if he throws for 150 yards a game or 350. This idea that a QB has to sling the ball all over the here and put up ridiculous video game numbers every week in order to be considered a great QB is absurd. What’s his completion percentage look like? Is he converting third downs? Is he turning the ball over? How many first downs is he picking up? Is he sustaining drives? Is the offense controlling the time of possession? Those types of things to me is what determines if he’s a great QB or not. Josh Allen is a gun slinger, and will throw for 3-400 yards a game week in and week out…. But he’s also turning the ball over and turning it over A LOT and it shows in the Bills recent performances and W/L over the last 6 weeks or so.
