I swear, "Locked on Bills" and "Cover 1" are the only Bills content im going to click on anymore. There might be a half dozen with rehashed video of receivers runing routes at OTA and guessing about the future.
Completely agree! SHOUT simply sucks. I do enjoy the irreverent banter Jenna & Co. do though as an aside.\
And Buffalo Plus
Locked on Bills and Cover 1 are the absolute best.
I agree let's throw buffalo fanatics in there too Rico and Zbot
So true he's the only one who is a true bills fan
The thing about allen is he is like a big kid who just loves to play football. He says so himself all the time. Now he is a kid with a bunch of new toys.
The lack of maturity is his greatest deficiency.
@@mazzvidz What maturity? He's much more mature than even Rodgers.
@@faceofbear8024 he's a resident Josh Allen hater. You can disregard.
I love to watch and listen to this show over coffee, getting ready for my day. Right now, it's all fingers crossed. I had high hopes for the team that lost to the Bengals and Chiefs. I hope this group can be that good, if not better down the road.
Shakir and Samuel will be great. Kincaid and Knox will be great. Colemans going to make some great catches. Not worried.
Plus cook and Ray Davis combo. Hopefully claypool takes this seriously and has a breakout season if not still not worried either
I am fully in on this new offense, I hope some young players on defense like Elam, Epenesa and Rousseau can pop off this year and set themselves up for long successful careers with the Buffalo Bills
2024 is the beginning of the Josh Allen 2.0 experience. The man has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt he can lead, create and ball with anyone in the business. Cole Beasley, John Brown, Devin Singletary, Emmanuel Sanders all came before the Stefon Diggs era in Buffalo. Josh made each of them look pretty good and I expect nothing less from Curtis Samuel, Keon Coleman, Dalton Kincaid, James Cook, K. Shakir and Ray Davis. Intrigued is a great word to use to describe what we are about to see from Josh. I'm less about Josh running and more about Josh becoming a bit more cerebral with how he manipulates a defense. Yes, the can and should take advantage of his running opportunities, But James Cook and Ray Davis are in the building for a reason. Josh may start slow but i have this sneaky feeling that the Bills are going to be the team no one wants to favce in January.
Josh Allen is vastly underrated. He’s a great player and selfless leader for the team.
First!! Yesss!!
Starting Monday morning with a cup of joe and a dash of josh??
Gonna’ be a good week!
Mornings with a cup of Joe! ❤
As a fellow Charlotte resident, it is funny how many issues and talking points that were discussed here with the Panthers back in the mid 2010s are repeating themselves now with the Bills. I think about Cam Newton all the time when I hear the debate on how much Josh should be running.
On another note, Brandon Beane compared Diggs to Steve Smith when Diggs didn’t participate in the mandatory minicamp last year. I should have seen the Diggs trade a mile away after he made that comparison! History repeats itself
Difference is 1 Josh stays healthy. 2 Buffalo has been good longer. 3 Carolina has made a Super Bowl.
I feel the sentiment that this is “Josh Allen’s offense” as opposed to being a “Joe Brady offense” is code for Brady basically saying they’re trying to create this blueprint for the future of how the Bills offense should be approached and operated and not to be messed with too much by any single OC. Success will inevitably lead to Brady getting a shot at Head Coaching somewhere, and the offense needs to work well after he’s gone too and it has to remain “Josh Allen’s offense”
This is where I come to now that Buffalo Rumblings has cut all their podcasts. Love the show.
They are still on. It's called The Overreaction Show or something like that
Try the overreaction buffalo sports network...John Fina, Jerry O, and the voice.
Josh Allen is underrated. He’s elite
I hate the way the nfl has neutered defense, but the rules are what they are, you have to take advantage of them. The quarterback is so protected you absolutely have to have josh run. Can you imagine being a corner who has a guy running full speed at you that is 40 pounds heavier and a half foot taller than you and in a split second you have decide if he is going to slide or not. Probably terrifying
In the first 7 games of season no designated runs but if he wants to run if he sees a hole fine. No design runs till we need to. Break glass kinda thing
No designed runs at all, just open runs, this is where he makes a difference. I can’t recall a single designed run that went for more than 2 yards
I think the best angle to look at Josh’s contract is to compare him to Brady. He took less money so he can have better teammates. I hope Josh has the same mindset. If I was in his position I wouldn’t want to take up a majority of the cap just to get paid top dollar. 40 million a year is already absurd money I wouldn’t care, especially when your a contending team trying to chase a ring!
Love Joe using my JA17 being the leading Iron Man in consecutive starts
I spent some time in KC on projects long term and got to be good friends with Chiefs fans (as a die hard Bills fan). They told me that GEHA was somehow involved in $ to MaHomes, I do not even know how that would work. Anyway if they do have a back door idea it would be nice to copy.
Did Josh with Cole Beasley and John Brown in their first year together go to the playoffs? Steph wasn't there yet. He much more seasoned and he has got some toys I'm excited
Better sit down and work out an extension for josh sooner than later,his biggest obstacle is coaches and teammates
The market is the market but a deal is a deal…if you always want to be paid highest sign 1-2 year deals not 6-10years no offense but the team is better with him being 12th highest paid than first
Well yea but that's not how this works
Joe do you think there will be growing pains or do you think the bills will put it together but I will tell you this I know keon Coleman was not who you wanted but I just have a feeling about him he's going to do something
Run Josh Run … been preaching that for years …reason why bills had the late run towards the playoffs … his avg runs per game increased to 9+ … from 4+…… josh runs is the reason for success of their offense, and always has been… question is will the new WR’s increase production in receiving game ? If so, then maybe Allen runs less …
You said Everything Right except Free Jimmy
In 2021 the bills set a weird record for the most players in a season to score a touchdown, spreading the ball around is not a concept that Allen is unfamiliar with
I'm hoping Josh doesn't get too concerned about where his salary is relative to other guys. It changes constantly as far as the top paid guys go.
He will get his 2025! Especially post Super Bowl win! 👍💪🏻
The messaging out of One Bills drive isn’t as clear as you’re making it out to be. Sometimes it seems as if commentators like yourself only hear what you want to hear and discard everything else.
The messaging has been convoluted at best. We have Allen calling it Brady’s offense, we have Brady calling it Allen’s offense, we have Beane and McDermott pointing out the amount of success they’ve had on offense the past 5 years AND suggesting that the stuff that works isn’t going to change and we have some players saying the offense is changing quite a bit ( Shakier) and others (Knox) suggesting that it’s basically the same.
Then you have to take into consideration that the Bills have been trying to become a more “12 Personnel” offense for at least three seasons. Obviously they drafted Kincaid last season but even before that they were trying to bring in other guys like OJ Howard, Rob Gronkowski and even Greg Olsen. This 2 TE alignment is obviously something that the Bills have been trying to incorporate for a long time.
As far as Allen running the ball so much and a desire to reduce his workload in the run game, this has been an organization wide concern for years… again we’ve heard Beane and McDermott referencing it in the past… but we’ve also heard these concerns from ownership as well. Kim Pegula before her health declined used to do a show with Maddy Glab and even she has addressed the need to “protect Allen from himself” those were her words.
The offense, from Daboll through Dorsey and even with Brady up through the Eagles game, has always been largely predicated on choice/option plays and we didn’t really see the Bills move away from that until Allen made that bad read against Philadelphia in OT and throw into the leverage, on that play to Davis. After that we saw the Bills offense lean heavily into the run game with both Allen and Cook.
You would also think that “where a QB starts with his eyes” in the route progression, wouldn’t be a static thing. In professional football the QB usually reads the defense pre snap and the leverage of that defense should dictate where the progressions start, regardless of the play call, especially in this type of concept based EP system, that has zone and man beaters built into every play.
If route progressions are pre determined based on the play and unable to change on the fly based on what the defense is giving you, then the offense will be awfully predictable.
Just my thoughts… am I wrong?
Allen should run the ball when the opportunity presents itself, it’s the designed runs I disagree with, they seem to always fail and he takes an unnecessary hit for a meager gain. When he scrambles we get 1st downs, what we really need to stress is sliding and going out of bounds when you got what you needed
If you like LOB and Cover 1...give Overreaction Buffalo Sports Network a try....Former players who give a perspective you can't get anywhere else along w/ the voice...you cant.go wrong!
Joe Joe Joe no no no 🤦🏼 why would u say that ?!!!? Allen doesn’t need to miss time man
How can Josh have a normal life making 42 million a year!!! Poor guy, I feel so bad for him. Let start a go fund me page for him.
Not the point
Good Morning Joe. Does Josh McDermott and the Bills team have a confident vide to them? They do me. McDermott is actually has a sense of humor this year
Backup QB sounds like a real waste of a roster spot. Trubisky needs some kind of role besides being Allen's buddy. Can he hold the ball on field goals at least?
All these players are way overpaid.
They are a valuable product. That's how it works. The money has to go somewhere and its better going in the players pockets than the owners.
This argument is so stupid. The NFL made 20 billion in revenue last year and it's still growing. Who should that money go to then?
Oh no !!!!!!!!!! Why did you say it !!!!!!! ????????…. 88 straight games Allen started …..
yeah shouldnt jinx it
Here is what I would do he signed the contract he plays out the contract by the time he's done we're gonna want a new quarterback anyway. Josh Allen is not the kind of quarterback who's going to age well.
Unfortunately you're probably correct which makes it that more important to win one with him ASAP
Terrible take, Allen has missed almost zero games, it is customary to extend them during the offseason going into his final contract year. If you’re truly feeling like the Josh Allen era is coming to a close then you should consider what we looked like before him. He’s not easily replaced he’s possibly the top talent this decade
@@DeepThinker-gc8nz i'm not saying it's coming to a close his contract runs four more years. If you're looking for a physical comp a guy who's never hurts it's Cam Newton but look how he was after taking all those hits. Josh Allen is here a good time not a long time we have to win soon.
Why do teams not put most of money in post career places,IRAs 401ks or someplace its for their future and not cap hits
I suppose it is because you would have to wait 35 years after retirement to collect any of that, not to mention the unfair tax rates the wealthy are subjected too would likely be 60-80% of those 401k values when collecting
I'm not perfectly fine with him as backup
Maybe Josh can get a Bobby Bonilla contract and get paid until he's 70🤪
Why not? In a career with such short span why do teams not put most of salary post career, or in 401ks
You sign a contract you stick to the contract. He IS NOTTTTT underpaid. Many others are way over paid. If he comes to Beane and says I want more money...trade him!
Are you drinking bleach?!😂
"Josh allen is underpaid" is the exact time I stopped listening.
Relative to NFL QBs he is and that's not debatable.
@LockedOnBills so what's the answer for the nfl? Everytime a player makes record breaking money and sets the so called standard for what a position should get paid, every team with a franchise qb has to restructure their contracts?
@@NickD13truth hurts?
@peterwilson4865 what truth?
@@NickD13 that he's currently underpaid. Because he is. The league brought in 20 billion in revenue and the salary cap is a reflection of that growth in direct proportion with one another. Why are you complaining about players getting paid when they're the product and the product is worth that much?
The bills 2024 offense is a Dream team if your name is Montana, Brady, Warner, mahommes, manning(peyton) , burrow or stroud... but Josh Allen...nope..the LAST THING he is good at is directing traffic..Allen hits ONLY home runs. Not base hits...its gonna be baaaaaaaaad...
Huh? 29 completions over 20 yards last year. That's not a lot of homers
Terrible opinion, watch the games then formulate an educated opinion.
Casual take here.
Knock on wood , Joe , when it comes to Josh's starting games. Josh definitely deserves the $,$$$,$$$, but I think his mind set is a SB more than what goes in his pocket. He's a QB with a mission 😊😊😊 🦬 is lucky to have him ❤
