Josh Allen has thrown 3 balls this entire preseason..... Talk about a serious lack of awareness.
 

the first preseason is a wash, really. stars should not be playing, but guys without any chemistry and are fighting to earn the starting job should be.

second preseason game should be a dress rehearsal. The bills came out with their starters and looked sharp.

the last preseason game is also a wash, rest starters - get ready for the reg season.

please provide a detailed explanation why Matt Rhule is making the right call as an NFL coach by sitting both (lol) of his "starting" QB's in the dress rehearsal game when they barely showed any sign of chemistry / reg season readiness.

Packers didn't dress 30 players for this week's game

the point is that teams with a coach on the hot seat and no starting QB named that just joined the team a month ago should DEFINITELY be playing a series in the dress rehearsal game.

Packers? Chiefs? Bills? Rams? they don't need to. but the fact that the Bills are playing their MVP while they prep for a superbowl run just goes to show that this a dress rehearsal and if there ever is a time to get some starter reps in, it would've been last night.

please keep naming teams that are resting starters though please Chuck.

how can you say this with certainty when this is the 2nd season of 3 preseason games? Show me data that says preseason game 2 is the official "dress rehearsal" of the NFL. 

Let's take a look at a couple of week 2 preseason games last year...

Rams v Chargers : Starters sat.

Bills v Lions: Bills sit starters

Bengals v Bucs : Sit starters
Titans v Falcons: Sit Starters

 

Also this "Rest starters" there is a one week bye before the season.... how much rest do they need?

 

There is no flat data that supports this mindless theory you are dying on a hill for.

the topic isnt about Rhule. Its about your misperception on how preseason is "supposed to be run."

no haha it's really not. you're deciding to make the topic what you want it to be. my question is about our situation.

I asked the question, it's my question. you can't re-interpret my question to try and favor your stance bud.

Rhule is such a buffoon. The game that every other legit contender treats as a dress rehearsal and is fine tuning things - he trots out PJ to start. He has zero clue what he’s doing besides going against the norm on everything to appear smart. 

This. Rhule thinks he’s smarter than everyone else and it’s set this franchise back 5 years at least.

This is simply not true.

Oh, really? Please enlighten me then because that is exactly what it appears like with these two eyeballs. I don't care if theres a few select teams with their incumbent, proven starters that aren't playing. We are not in that situation. 

Baker and the 1's should have been out there for the 1st quarter at least to show they got things running smoothly. Through the 2nd if things were rough. This constant game of flipping around players and inserting people here to try formation X should have been hammered out weeks ago. 

We look like idiots because we have an idiot captaining this ship. He does not know what he's doing. He has not known what he's doing since he got here, yet here he is. 

His "process" has basically been a complete reset every single year. If part of his great "plan" was to re-evaluate every part of his staff and QBs on a yearly basis this shows me 2 things - 

1 - HE HAS NO PROCESS

2 - If he does, then its terrible and he should be fired because we are in no better situation than the day he got here.

So Allen plays one series getting his first play of preseason and this is a dress rehearsal? He's played the same number of series as Mayfield 

Exactly, they came out, looked sharp, and that was all they needed to see. We have yet to have a series from anyone that looks that way. But we keep wasting chances with people who aren't even going to be on the team in a week.

Literally the only teams has played starters so far this week are the Patriots (who played no starters preseason week 1) and the Bills (who played 1 series). Every other team that has played so far this week has started back ups. Your the one who needs to open eyes and pay attention.

That is such an insignificant part of what I said. What teams are playing starters and what teams aren't makes no difference to me. You chose to ignore all the other very valid points I made about our coach who rides the line of being on the spectrum.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
