However this is why I won't bash Allen for his mistakes. Brock has his share so it's hypocritical to give one guy crap while overlooking those for the other.
Allen is able to do things Brock will simply never be able to do. Partly why it feels like the Bills don't give him as much help, essentially the "Josh will make it happen"
Regardless I'm very happy we have Brock and Kyle. They're a great marriage and I'm excited to see what they can do this year. I just pray the rest of our guys stay healthy cuz I thought Stribling would be a huge addition. Already losing Pearsall sucks. We need the other guys to stick around and ball out with Brock making right decisions and spreading the ball around.
Because of his size? Examples please? (I said I was giving it a rest lol but it's fun to chat it up about qbs).
Brock is about the size of Drew Brees, has similar play style, would one say Drew Brees could never do some things Allen does? Drew developed a keen sense of pocket awareness just like Brock. Making size a non factor really.
If it's dual threat, Brock has that too, he just has to utilize it more with the legs at times. Also, what Brock may 'lack in arm strength', he definitely makes it up with core and lower body.
Allen is likely a physically stronger dude due to size and it could be an advantage when trying to rush for yards, scrambles etc. Brock can rush and scramble too, fast. Maybe not as fancy looking as Allen but he can do it. Yes, Allen is taller, he can see things that Brock may not be able to but I would still argue, size isn't too much of a factor.

if we can only get one 3rd round compensatory pick if we let Mac go in free agency, I'd at least want two or three day two draft picks or three or four day four draft picks.
