The team is a mess
He obviously hasn’t had a great year
But you’ve also had guys like Peyton Manning breaking down his play & saying that he’s got what it takes

No offense, but when it comes to opinions on QB play...

Yeah, I’ve never claimed to be good at evaluating QB’s.

Josh Rosen has had a terrible year. That’s a fact. He’s been worse than Allen. That’s another fact

Is that the only way to define a player? Sacks?

It's been talked about all over the place how much Shaq has matured this year, taken the game more seriously and has played much better.

- Wetbandit1


I agree, but defensive ends generally are expected to get sacks.

8 overall nhl picks are expected to produce goals in the nhl.

Cleary intangibles are important, and I like shaq's effort.

But.........
2 sacks
And that 1 forced fumble
Hardly game changing

He’s not a bust .

You have a very negative outlook on life he has 20 points and he’s one of the leading scores in Rochester and he’s having a career year you can’t give him any credit

Yeah, I'm just saying that calling a 20 year old a bust is a tad premature just because others drafted at the same time are already in the NHL and really good.

And in comparing Lawson and Nylander specifically is that Lawson was known as a lazy player(as is Nylander) until this year where he's taken off and worked his ass off, that play where he knocked down the pass was all work.

- Wetbandit1


Ok, it does happen no doubt...the light goes off for some.
I would love to see them trade Nylander for Jesses Puljajarvi...Edmonton probably will want more than straight up...give them a coveted 6th in 2020 too.
If they think they can develop Alex, hell put that faith in developing a guy who could BOOM rather than just make it as a tweener.

The Sabres should consider moving pominville to the top line Sam should be able to produce on a different line to spread the points

Pominville not so much

- sbroads24


1) that’s subjective, not fact
2) that also doesn’t speak to how the player’s career will turn out
3) someone a while back posted the factors to success for a young QB
Especially EARLY, it has A LOT to do with the team around you

Try not to get too carried away too early

I was pissed when the Coyotes snagged Keller one pick before us. Doubt Murray would have taken him anyways.

That’s the point the only way he is noticeable is on the top line and if you take Sam off of it you might be able to get some scoring on a different line

Should of would of could of. Mahomes would not be what he is today on the current Bills team. Tradavious White was a good pick. The Bills are ok.

Consider moving Pominville off the team.

That Eichel kid is pretty good. I think he just may make it in this league.
