"spend any time in Iowa?" Brou kills me, lmao.
"Going there this weekend!" Haha
I wonder what they'd look like without Nick's unsufferableness holding them back
That side of the table is GOATed 😂
I’m watching Miami cut Buffalo’s lead thinking how insufferable Nick was going to be if the Dolphins pulled off the upset.
Lol
Even with the win Josh Allen definitely lived up to everything Nick says about him in that Dolphins playoff game. I was expecting more of a celebratory lap around the stage, but I suppose there will still be time for that next week.
Lol
Yep. Nick wrong will always hate Allen no matter what. He threw 2 interceptions and Nick glosses over the fact both were on the wrs.
@@gmoss1679 how about all the fumbles?
Brock purdy is showing how inept most gm’s are
Or how good a coach shanahan is
Very correct
You do realize how incredibly hard it is to predict talent in the NFL right? Purdy didn't show anything in college that would lead people to expect him to be a good NFL QB otherwise he wouldve been drafted sooner. Now to be fair there are plenty of inept GMs too lol
@@NoName-em8jo Take notes Kyler Murray. (Motivation, not indictment)
Or how good shannahan, lynch , and the roster they put around purdy
Josh Allen is 💯 this generation’s Brett Favre, top talent, the reason you win, the reason it is close, and the reason you lose
Well said I'm bills fan but well said, I keep telling people how crazy would it be for bills needing to win 3 games all by 3 points each advancing to Superbowl for 3 Hamlin Allen had 3 TD's yesterday BTW lol
@@drew5700 Yeah, I am a Packers fan an it is funny like deja vu seeing Josh Allen spin it and be great while making some questionable throws lol
@@matthewklika yeah just wish he made better decisions with the ball, especially in the red zone, love my guy tho, go bills
Nope favre actually won in the biggest games an allen as good as he can be hasn't shown that yet and till he wins the afc at least he'll be known as a chocker
Allen had 1 bad turnover on him, the throw to brown that many say was brown running the wrong route. The other pick bounced off beasleys chest, the fumble was an unblocked defender on him immediately
This kid is Kurt Warner...I'm calling it
I mean if he has an elite defense every year and keeps winning. He's basically Tom Brady
Brock Purdy is HIM!!
Yessir
😂
The Bills are such an interesting team. Win or lose, this team is WILD.
That Iowa bit in the end was low key 10/10 comedy lol.
NGL Nick bothers me so much but i hate to say he is right about a lot of stuff and he constantly runs circles around broussard and even Wildes
Bottom line: Brock Purdy has significantly outplayed Jimmy G in the exact same offense this year. This definitively says something about one of these two quarterbacks.
My take: Purdy wins the SB.
Yeah, Purdy has shaken off the First Playoff jitters, I really think that he can win the SB with this current roster.
This was also with Jimmy G playing the best football of his career. Jimmy G also has never really played well in the playoffs. Anyone who disagrees with you doesn't know what they are talking about.
I’m still not sure a rookie can beat a complete roster like the Eagles or even the Cowboys if they play to their potential. And I also think whoever comes out of the AFC wins the SB.
@@skillethead15 Eagles maybe, but we're not even sure if they could beat the Giants so idk about that. Cowboys? with Dak Mascot at the helm they have 0 chance of touching Brady nevertheless Purdy. The only team I'm worried in the AFC is the Chiefs but with Purdy's Scoring prowess it'll offset whatever Mahomes and Reid cooked up against the niners defense.
Just remember as you confidently ignorantly think a rookie can win a Super Bowl movie, At the last time you played a solid team the raiders lit you up for 34 and you barely escaped with the W, yall were lucky to play the seahawks in the 1st round
I’m now starting to see the Favre comparison with Josh Allen because he’s the ultimate gunslinger but you can’t consistently win in the playoffs throwing multiple picks regardless how good you are the rest of the game.
Favre has 3 MVPs, 2 SB appearances, a SB win, and an OPOY. Let’s see Allen get any of that before the comparisons start
@@joshuahartman2555 and as a bills fan I would love that hahaha, waited 40 years for my team to win a superbowl. But yes Josh has to clean it up to get that one
@@joshuahartman2555 They're making a comparison in playing style, not necessarily career trajectory. Only time will tell for the latter
"Have you spent any time in Iowa?" Hahahahahahahaha
Tom Green got really good at sports analysis
Nick knows about the Wire? Major props to Nick.
Yeah it’s like his favorite show ever
Who doesn't know about The Wire? It's the equivalent of not knowing about Breaking Bad.
nick is weak
every cultured person in the anglosphere knows about the wire, its well known in the UK where im from and Australia too
I was so excited to see nicks take on Allen. He truly must’ve LOVED this weekend, it’ll only get better if Brady wins tonight. Then I hope the chiefs lose to Lawrence just to see Nick self destruct lol
Hes a Lawrence fan bud he wouldn't mind
@@RefundHD he’s also a chiefs fan, “bud.” He’d excuse mahomes having 3 turnovers but never Allen
@@RefundHD Nick loves Lawrence but not anywhere close to his level of admiration for the Chiefs. He would be devastated if Trevor and the guys somehow pulled it off.
@@persistentlypathetic6820 He would be upset but he would use Lawrence as a cope
@RefundHD his obsession with the chiefs and mahomes is kind of weird, honestly. Love, when he says some crazy stat, "Mahomes is the only qb to throw 6 touchdowns on a Monday 4 days after a full moon"
Mahomes stat line against bengals last yr looks similar to Josh Allens yesterday
Josh Allen was watching that game from the couch if I remember 🤔
@@jca7343 and Mahomes joined him a week later, your point?
@@michaelangerami6748
@@michaelangerami6748 my point is Allen has never beaten Mahomes in the playoffs. Including last year, the year you're referencing. Please don't compare rollercoaster Josh Allen to Patrick Mahomes. Allen nearly lost to a 3rd string 7th rd rookie QB yesterday 😂
@@jca7343 patrick mahomes nearly lost to the denver broncos twice with the worst offense in the league. I don’t think Tyreek Hill or jaylen waddle sat out yesterday.
Nick gets to be right today. We will see if he’s right in the long run. The coaching is not as good now that Daboll is gone
Apparently the gameplan by the Bills were to try and end the game by the half because they just kept the foot on the pedal, but can’t do that this next round. Lessons need to be learned
You'll say they shouldn't play timid if they don't keep their foot on the pedal and lose.
@@bearfootball1 i believe there is a medium that could be reached. Throwing 30 yard passes whether pinpoint or not just isn’t the way. But also impressive how many of those he did get off where he had like 20 qb pressures
I see it and the numbers don’t like, no shade towards Jimmy and grateful for what he did for the team but Purdy has already proven to me and a lot of faithfuls that he is the future in the bay and he has that sauce. We will stay Brock and loaded! Let’s go Niners!
Neither of the 2 INT’s were Allen’s fault
But Allen also fumbled 3 times. So there's that.
It’s never Joshys fault
Josh allens gets emotional and goes full tilt at times in every game, causing these terrible decisions
"So we'll refer to Tom Brady as a sixth-round pick, then." Nice.
Purdy is playing fantastic for a rookie but man I’ve seen some throws that could be classified as lucky drops be defenses. Can’t take the win streak away tho, he’s getting the job done.
Put Josh Allen on the Chiefs or 49ers with those head coaches and those weapons, he'd be the best in this generation. Bar none!
Is anyone else beside me praying the Bills beat the Chiefs just to see nick's reaction?
They have to beat Cincinnati first. Both of those teams are great teams just like the Chiefs. AFC championship is going to be fun to watch.
Seriously looking past the bengals already?
They barely got past Skylar Thompson. You should be worrying about the Bengals.
Weird thing to pray for
@@floatpool8307 also true all remaining teams in the AFC should not underestimate each other. This is coming from a KC fan. I don’t underestimate a single one of our remaining opponents.
"A fossilizing Matt Ryan " ahahahha
As a Matt Ryan fan, that hurt but it's true lmao
Matt Ryan is 36 going on 67.
It's the only show I just laugh the whole time 😆 🤣 😂 😹
Nick: Crowns the 4 INT "Prince"
Nick: Allen is too up and down
Look, I get that Allen is so up and down, but at least please be consistent Nick.
I love this because it shows Nick reads the comments
The cost of the brick is going up. Is what Marlo said.
Fool said “rich man’s Jeff George” 😂😂😂😂
He's the only one who can truly take over a game, even when his causality with the ball is the only reason for needing to.
mahomes exists
bro did mahomes die y’all are so nuts
Purdy is the best QB on the 49ers roster by far
How about how many times Mahomes throws the ball to the Defense and the defender drops it? Having some luck is sometimes what it takes.
8:06 every time Nick references The Wire, he gains a little more respect from me
Marlo actually says price of the brick going up lol but I still respect the reference
@@Briana-a13 that’s why he said to “misquote” Marlo
^
@@MrRa3500 people do not listen
The BILLS go as Allen goes... if he is hot and making good decisions, the BILLS win... if not, the BILLS' defense is just not good enough to pick up the slack for the win. If Josh had a running game to help him he would not have to stand on his head to make things happen!
Shout out to Nick for The Wire reference 😂👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
"Fossilizing Matt Ryan" lmao
“The price of the brick going up”
FINALLY someone brings up how we were with other QBs. If you can put anyone in this offense why were we one of the worst teams in the league with three other QBs
And Josh Allen doesn't have the team Patrick has further more when I watch Kansas city chiefs Kelsey is the one who carries that team
Is it just me? Or when you hear Chris Broussard talking, it sounds like Chris Rock is on this show talking football 🤣
Why are we treating the turnovers like all of them were on him? The first pick was on Brown for slowing down and just a great play by Howard, the second pick was on Beasley, the only turnover on him was the fumble. Other than that, he was great basically all game.
32 turnovers is on you bro just stop defending this.
Keep it a buck Allen was way better with Dabol as the OC
@@thewavyprince5691 U can say 32 is on him(he doesn’t have 32 btw, he has 32 combined INTs and fumbles but not all have been lost) but yesterday, U can’t say it was just him making bonehead plays. U just can’t. I’m not defending all the red zone INTs and bonehead plays he’s made at times this season. But yesterday U CANT act like was one of those games. It just wasn’t. Anybody who watched it without rose colored glasses can see that.
He was also throwing a ridiculous number of downfield throws and most of them went incomplete. But that's probably Dorsey's fault for god awful playcalling. Game should not have been close, Bills almost snatched defeat from the jaws of victory
@@thewavyprince5691 he doesn’t have 32 turnovers. Nick is counting fumbles that are also recovered.
I need to see Nick and Kevin's reactions to the next segment after Nick talked so much smack about DJ
he had 2 more interceptions than patrick mahomes this year. what are we talking about right now?
Nick Wright had to have watched "The Wire" using that reference.
Most of the deep passes by Allen were dropped!
Ironically, it seemed like one of his best games throwing the ball. Unfortunately, 1 wasn’t caught by receiver that led to an interception and the fumble was on a defender coming straight at him and he tried to extend it.
I love how he says its Joshs fault for Turnovers .. one interception is on him other is on Beasley. Fumble Td is not on him nobody picked up the blocked and the player came in all alone. So to me its not all on him. But the Oline needs to do better for sure.
Why do they say it's a quarterback friendly system and then they bring up those guys to to knock it you can't have it both ways
Purdy is absolutely LEGIT. This team went through basically 3 phases based on the available personnel, and the offensive numbers in each of the 3 periods speak for themselves:
Weeks 1-6 (Trey/Jimmy, pre McCaffrey): 20.3 PPG
Weeks 7-12 (Jimmy with McCaffrey): 25.4 PPG
Weeks 13-Wild Card (Purdy with McCaffrey): 34.6 PPG (and half of that was without Deebo)
Not making an excuse for the behind the head toss against the Texans but he was trying to get it to Knox.
If josh Allen has a bad game, it’s because that’s who he is. If Mahomes has a bad game, it’s just a bad game to nick. We know what he looks like against the chiefs nick, and that’s what terrifies you
Nick is just a loudmouth he makes up his own statistics to satisfy the narrative he wants to engage in
I agree allen needs to clean up the turnovers but the o line and play calling doesn’t help either. Bills abandon the run game way too early most games. 1st int the reviver ran the wrong route and the fumble was a blindside tackle but sure you can put those on Allen but the 2nd int was not on him he put the ball in the receivers hands and it bounced off his chest. Not every turnover is the same and it’s crazy to bunch all of it into he’s a turnover machine
Nick is right! Allen is a loose cannon. He is going to do great things and he is going to do bad sad things. He IS scary!
If it's a paint by numbers offense, why did they trade the farm for Trey Lance?
Jimmy g played well in New England too though...so its not just a system
Jimmy G did the bare minimum in NE stop fooling yourself lol
It was raining hard in the first half.
Just a reminder, Mahomes only has 1 SB.
He already has a HOF career.
SF is favorite in NFC.... Cincy is favorite in the AFC... Based on quarterback rating differential numbers
There were several play where Samual was wide open and Purdy missed him.
Only that one play tbh, but he did miss a few passes in the first half. Nonetheless, you don't put up those numbers without having some level of skill.
The first one, Purdy said the ball was wet and it just slipped. The second one, Aiyuk was running wide open too but he stopped running.
No quarterback in the league is perfect. The kid threw for 330 and totalled 4 TDs. Stop nitpicking and give the kid some props
You want to talk about Kirk Cousins last throw in his game?
What is your point?
It's not Josh's fault that they had so many deep passes. Ken Dorsey needs to learn that that's not how play calling works
Seeing Nick be more right about Josh after every Bills game is satisfying
💯
right about what. the team hasnt lost in over 2 months
listening to Nicks crybaby takes on Allen, as Allen stacks win after win, IS satisfying.
Wow, Nick really coming at Allen...He's talking like Allen is some high school scrub...and not a top 5-7 QB in the league...SMH..Wow
Lol Nick Wright is blind to Josh Allen’s greatness
Jimmy didn’t have mccaffrie in the play offs
If the 49ers had invested all of its draft picks to draft Brock Purdy and they are getting The production out of him like they are getting would they be concerned about what to do with Trey Lance Who hypothetically drafted last ? Heck no, they would stick with their winner which is what they should do now👍👍👍
Trey Lance is a bum. Brock purdy way better
Wow Allen has a 14-1 TD Int ratio in the playoffs before this game. Give me a break, he'll bounce back. If Mahomes has this O-Line he would have a lot more turnovers.
Are we just going to ignore the fact that both of Josh Allen s ints we're because of the wrs? One was because John brown stopped running his route and the other hit Cole Beasley in the chest. Come on man
Josh Allen had less turnovers than Trevor Lawrence though so apparently it's fine
2 of them weren’t his fault and Trevor isn’t compared to Mahomes as the best QB in the league💀
Josh Allen is turnover prone.......except against the Chiefs!
So far, doesn’t mean it can’t or won’t happen
Because the Chiefs have a bottom 5 secondary. That's not impressive.
@@jca7343 s KC isn't impressive? Good to know
@@jca7343 that’s fine, keep sleeping. Still gonna win. We are bottom half, but no bottom 5. When you lead a lot of games, you’re pass D isn’t going to look good in the stat book. Chiefs were top 5 in sacks this year. Just need to get off the field and hold to 3 in key spots. Turnovers have been occurring more as of late as the pass rush has been turned up.
@@SabresGuy87 all we know is winning the last 4-5 years. Got one more ring than anyone else in the AFC 💀😂
They should just name all main stream sports media "Bad Takes" every year someone is the next superstar/mvp and then the next they're bad.
Do you think that Patrick Mahomes and Trevor Lawrence know that Nick Wright is basically in love with them? lol
Hey Nicole, that's a cheap shot at Jeff George. One of the greatest arms in NFL history 💪. If he'd ever played for a decent team, he'd probably be in the hall of fame!!!
"shout out to the bud list"
Nick... Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes are top QBs, clearly Mahomes more than Allen. - but those are the ONLY two QBs I have ever seen that can make something happen in the last 2 minutes of games, heck seconds if needed. who else could do that against Mahomes?
What other quarterback played good for the 9ers when jimmy was out?
allen will never stop being this reckless , until he wins a ring , he plays always like he needs to prove something
I said Allen and mahomes were Favre yrs ago… they need to run the ball more with Allen and call some shorter routes in between the big plays cause Allen wants the home run every play and it becomes reckless, you gotta reel him in like holmgren would with brett
Mahomes has the 3rd lowest INT% in nfl history.
The only thing he and Favre have in common is their arm strength and once being coached by Andy.
@@thatstheway2429 ok because you called out the stat I had to look and you are right BUT....mahomes is 1.64% and allen is 2.34% which is 32nd all time..........if you are trying to say mahomes doesnt throw picks every chiefs fan I am friends with complains about it all the time. Yes Allen has more this year of course. your comment came across like its a completely different universe but its 1.64 vs 2.34 (for now of course)
@@ajfatca ok that’s great and all but I don’t think I said anything about Josh Allen did I?
I was just saying comparing him to Favre is absurd.
@@thatstheway2429 yup thats on me sorry, you were replying to an allen comment so I read it wrong. But I also read it as you didnt think mahomes threw picks, which is definitely does.
@@ajfatca well sure. Every QB in nfl history throws picks, so I’m not sure how meaningful of a statement that is.
Josh did have an up and down game but there were a lot of plays that should have went their way where there were drops. ball hitting the ground before a catch when it was put in a place that could have been caught. Shakir had that long pass and Knox had the TD that got called off. The 2nd interception was on him but the first one was an offensive miscommunication. This could have easily been a clean matchup if it wasn’t for Miami havingan insane run right before half time scoring 10 points. That ain’t something you see much, Josh has looked like he is ready to make big plays and people shouldn’t discredit teams when they’re divisional opponents. And does Nick really think Josh would look like this against the Chiefs with their secondary.
Miami's secondary is worse them the Chiefs...
And you seriously with a straight face gonna act like Allen hasn't been this inconsistent all season?
A 13-3 record and losing your 3 games by a combined 8 points doesn’t seem inconsistent to me
It is inconsistent. Dolphins had drops too. And skylar was awful. Josh can keep running tho. He’s gonna get smashed. Only takes once.
@@jaimeamaya5039 Josh's trucks have left more than one linebacker laying on the field waiting for a medic - been watching football for forty years and have never seen another qb do that.
@@darkassjack always more linebackers and only one Allen. He also has the benefit of being a QB. They hit him and he slides it’s a penalty. It will happen soon enough.
Nick underestimates Jimmy. Jimmy is able to successfully operate the 49ers' complex offense. That's no easy task. Just look at Trey Lance. Shanahan didn't trust him to run the offense his entire first year. Jimmy's problem is that gets he emotional; subject to both panic and overenthusiasm. Brock doesn't scare so easily.
exactly!
Hey Nick… Brock Purdy has is most definitely, a superstar!!!
Nick Wright was right about jimmy g the entire time
Josh Allen has never had a playoff game as bad as the Mahomes we’ve seen against the Bucs and Bengals.
It's wild that all the mistakes fall on josh ...When if you watched the game you saw his turnovers only came off wr mistakes !!!
We call yesterday a win and all the rest of the games u were talking about all wins
I don't always agree with Nick Wright but in this debate he said all the right things. I agree 100% with his take on Brock Purdy here.
The shade for Purdy is strong with this one
Nick can be insufferable BUT I have to agree that Josh Allen is not an equal to Mahomes.
Nick has been proven right on his Josh Allen takes, not gonna lie
Has Nick not watched Mahomes against the Bengals and Bucs. This dudes deluded.
😅 So you pick a game where Mahomes has a bad half... and another game where his entire offensive line was 2nd and 3rd string... thats actually a compliment kid if that's all you got😅
Why is this guy taking a Mahomes v. Allen discussion so personally?
Of course Nick uses “Fumbles” and not “Fumbles Lost”.
This year, Josh Allen rushed 124 times for 762 (6.1 YPC) yards and 7 touchdowns. He also fumbled 8 times, losing 2 of them.
This year, Patrick Mahomes rushed 61 times for 358 yards (5.86 YPC) and 4 touchdowns. He also fumbled 5 times, losing 0 of them.
So Mahomes would fumble more than Allen if they rushed the same amount. I went back and watched every single fumble, and the only reason Mahomes has 0 lost is that his offensive line is great at finding the fumble - it has nothing to do with him.
I’m not even a Josh Allen guy, but I can’t stand to see Nick use biased numbers - what I provided is exactly what he would argue if the numbers were reversed. Allen has to do more, but higher numbers don’t actually mean worse averages.
Your missing the point, if Josh Allen was that guy with his arm why even run him as much as they do? If he and Mahomes are on the same level throwing why cost the team with turnovers at the WORST possible times running a QB when the TEAM is loaded and can win regardless? Mahomes throws the ball more and has less INT's than Allen but should have more according to your logic right, also if he ran the same he would have MORE rushing TD's than Allen smh. Team wise, the Bills still have a better team but with the QB play you can't tell. And his FIRST fumble in 2022 was in the Shotgun up 30-7 with a 144.2 passer rating and 3 TD's lol... not running through LB's with an interception already... and he threw TD #4 after the fumble recovery DUE TO HIS LINE GETTING SMOKED that led to the fumble in the first place smh... Nice try... don't know how you missed that one when: " I went back and watched every single fumble"...
@thedarkside5347 I wouldn't call the bills offense loaded. Diggs is great, but MacKenzie and Davis have been inconsistent all year with the amount of dropped passes they've had, and they've only recently started reincorporating Knox and the RBs back into the gameplan. So when for the majority of the year you're only real option is a double covered diggs, josh will feel like he has to run it himself, hence the higher rushing stats. As for if Josh and pat are the same from a passed perspective, I wouldn't say that's particularly true either. I think Josh takes it in terms of arm strength, where pats decision making makes him stand out. Both can throw it on a rope though.
@@irshkashirkle I agree, the bills team is much different than in the preseason and not the powerhouse they were early on but as a roster top to bottom I’d still choose them over kc. Still, the bills have 3 more drops as a team than KC and idk who Pat throws to when Kelce is doubled all game every game and Juju is either hurt or inconsistent 🤷♂️. I’m NOT downplaying Allen’s productivity and value for his team but it seems the Bills run a game plan suited for Lamar Jackson. If you go back 20 years 95% of the champs have had a top 8 ppg defense. The QB cannot turn the ball over and you have success. Big Ben, Rodgers, Russell, Brady (more than anyone in history), Brees, Foles 😂, ALL had top PPG defenses when they won, 1st or 2nd for most.
@thedarkside5347 well, thankfully the bills d sits at #3 behind the niners and jets, so we have that box checked at least! And I think pats first go to being kelce actually explains a lot. Kelce is usually good for his YAC, right? Meaning he's the short pass option who then runs through/around people as TE do. It also means he's probably the first receiver to get in position, and in relatively short order since he's likely the closest receiver to the line of scrimmage. Diggs on the other hand is supposed to be used for the deep ball, forcing Allen to wait precious seconds for him to get in position, and if that doesn't work out, it's scramble time as his o line crumbles around him, something that mahomes doesn't have to worry about nearly as much. Honestly, BOTH teams would benefit from balancing a ground game in, but we'll see how they adjust throughout the next couple weeks!
Brock purdy is the best qb left in the playoffs
Haha scary like lit dynamite
Nick would make a fantastic NFL scout, he's just correct on QB's way more often than he's wrong. Lawrence, Allen, Jimmy G, Dak. He's spot on every time
lmao bro isn't right no matter what Allen is still a top 3 qb he's been a douter since they drafted him
I think the "bad decisions" this year are him not appreciating the talent he's throwing against. He's had some superb throws that have worked fantastically against some teams but that same throw against another team looks like a poor decision.
his two INTs were barely Josh's fault. The first one hit the receive in the chest and bounced up to INT. The second one was a 1v1 jump ball bomb that the receiver did not even look for the ball lol. Also - the dropped bomb before the half that led to a bills punt and turned in to 10 Miami points.
Before Miami, Allen had the best 6 game playoff stretch of all time. Better passer rating, total yards and TD/INT ratio than Mahomes. And he references the ONLY bad playoff play Allen ever had as his argument. The cherry picking KING. Horrible take.
Wait, I thought Dak was leading the league in turnovers...
He was tied, The media was so focused on hating Dak an the cowboys they forgot to remind the viewers that Josh Allen led the league in game ending and redzone interceptions
