Man, no offense but it would be way closer a comparison to say Cam.  Josh Allen?  He isn’t even close in any way man

We can’t say every QB that is inaccurate as hell will become Josh Allen.  Silly

Why is AR not suitable for Josh Allen comparisons, but Levis is?

@Shockerbe honest, did you ever actually watch Josh Allen in college? Forget the NFL. Did you ever watch him in COLLEGE? It really doesn't seem like it.

 

 

He isn’t about to be honest. He is trolling.

To all the Richardson fans, what is it about him that makes you think he'll be a success in the NFL? We already have a project QB. What do you see in him that makes you go ... wow. He can run it, sure. But his passing is not good. I get that Allen turned out to be a god, so are you just hoping AR turns out to be a god too?

He doesn’t need to turn out to be a god. He just needs to continue developing. He has great wheels and a strong arm. He throws to guys who will not play on Sundays, behind one offensive lineman who will play on Sundays. He threw for 400 yards today throwing to his #4,5,6,7,8 WRs today. And 5,6,7,8 had basically no action at all before this week. He has better legs and a stronger arm that most of the other QBs in this class and combining the two he has the best “tools”. If you think you can develop him the ceiling is higher than the other guys in the class.

He has the raw talent. Would I bet on him? Honestly I'm not sure I would. I've said repeatedly that I've never seen anyone make anywhere close to the strides as a pure passer that Josh Allen did. Not even close.

I just thought that Allen coming out of college was a guaranteed bust. He checked every bust box. Cannon arm. Plus athleticism. No accuracy. No consistency. No big time clutch moments. But he hit. Big time. That changed my outlook. I'm of the opinion now that you rol the dice on a guy with all the talent if he sells you during interviews.

So I won't complain if we take him or if we don't since I can't sit in on the interviews. It all cokes.down to that factor for Richardson IMO.

A TON man…the draft is my favorite sporting event and I have loved evaluating prospects since 1988.  I have seen QBs being hyped over and over and one thing can tell you.  If a QB is not accurate in college they FAIL.  Josh Allen is different.  Totally different.  You cannot project anyone else to do what he is doing.  Anthony Richardson was barely an SEC QB this season.  Look at their record.  If he isn’t running wild (which he can do) he isn’t even a decent player.  
 

Adding something Cam Newton had one amazing season but he was inaccurate most of his career.  It is just a fact and I love Cam

I agree. He's a total anomaly. By all means Josh Allen should've been a bust. But how is Allen in college any different than Richardson except for Richardson facing a much higher level of opposition? They're basically the same guy.

This is, again, silly talk. He didn’t run today and he was fine. And if you think hes the reason we haven’t been winning this season, by bringing up our record, you are not watching the games.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
