Rookie to rookie just isn't an apples to apples comparison at all given the different eras though. This is a MUCH more pass happy league with the rules to match than the one Drew Brees was drafted into.

We Panthers fans really can't be critical of someone else's elite QB right now. It's just a really tone-deaf look.

Nearly yards in 8 seasons. 4 1000+ yard seasons. 3 Pro Bowls. And keep in mind, passing/receiving stats weren't near back then what they are these days. His career was cut short at 29 due to a bad ankle.

Remember that underthrown bomb. If Burrow hits that one it's a TD and the Bengals are running away with this one. Might be the break the Bills needed.

He single handedly wins them some games too.

Drew Brees' career was likely made by the change in illegal contact in 2004. He blew up right after that change. Not being able to rough up receivers and being forced to let them run free allowed his best traits to shine.

Allen throws some picks but he also makes some throws like THAT. To make those types of throws you gotta be willing to gamble with throwing a pick.

Someone with that username and account pic talking about "Cammys" right now is just maximum cringe.

If Bryce was a 2nd round pick he would've already been benched for Andy Dalton. That's just the sad truth.

Bryce is similar to Brees in that they both lack ideal height. But Brees is better at literally everything else, including height and overall size. You don't pay a guy like an elite pass rusher because he talks to people on the sideline. Good grief. What a disaster of a take.

About the same probably to be honest.

Fitts should've followed Rhule out the door and now we're going to pay dearly for not making that move. He's surpassed Hurney in terribleness at this point and he's challenging Seifert.

Yeah, there are VERY few teams that wouldn't take Josh Allen over their guy with zero hesitation. The dude is elite.

Allen is probably gonna be Favre-ish in that he's going to be a highlight reel but with the highlights are gonna come turnovers. I thought he'd probably clean up that aspect of his game over time but it's been long enough at this point that I think this is who he is. All he's gotta do is get hot at the right time though. The Bills have had a bad habit of peaking way too early. You don't win Super Bowls in October.

We have a bunch of maulers trying to execute a finesse zone blocking scheme and it looks like how you'd expect that to look.

Howell is literally on pace to throw for damn near 5000 yards.

The picks? No. But there are plenty of examples of Bryce having very marginal at best NFL arm strength. When he doesn't have plenty of room in front to step up he really struggles to generate velocity.

Cam looked like he was going to break a lot of records. Injuries derail a lot of guys in this game.

It's pretty wild how often teams get away with false starts these days. You gotta be EARLY early to get flagged. Seems like every team I watch their OTs are getting just the slightest head start on passing plays. Not as bad as that KC RT in week one, but if you're watching for it they're coming out of their stance a hair early on most passing plays.

Smith-Marsette and Blackshear brought some juice in the return game today. Honestly one of the few bright spots today.

Burrow is back healthy again. Dude's a baller.

I honestly think they initially made that trade for Mac Jones and got shook by the media and fan doubt. There was way too much smoke to that rumor for there not to have been some fire there. Jones isn't very good either but if they'd made that pick I think Jones is a little better version of Purdy.

Because we won some meaningless games against bad teams down the stretch last year with a very conservative game plan that wouldn't translate to a full season of success. These guys looked at that and convinced themselves that if we just add a legit franchise QB and an offensive savant we'd be right there. Then they drafted Bryce Young and hired Frank Reich.
