2019 is a crucial year for Josh Allen and Buffalo Bills fans will be hoping he rises up the quarterback power rankings throughout the year.
There are countless offseason articles featuring rankings of all kinds.
From power rankings to quarterback rankings and everything in between, Buffalo Bills fans have plenty to read and react to before the season begins.
The latest set I found is from FanSided and ranks the quarterbacks in the league from 1-32. William Schneiderhan did the honors of creating the piece.
The part Bills fans care about has to do with Josh Allen, who shows up at No. 27 overall. From the article:
"It does appear that the Bills found their quarterback of the future, now Allen just needs to work on becoming a better passer. Adding Cole Beasley, Frank Gore and John Brown can add to the team’s depth at the skills positions, which will help their young gunslinger this upcoming season."
This is still the honeymoon period for Allen. We can all talk about how he should do better with his new offensive weapons. And how he should have more time with an improved offensive line. These are simply hypothetical.
We will all see if the additions actually result in better play or if we were fools all along. Well, we wouldn’t be the fools losing our jobs if things go south.
Obviously this is the worst-case scenario and Allen showed positive signs in 2018 to make it clear that he will not be a total bust. That doesn’t mean he will be a star, but there is no sense of doom heading into this season.
And better yet, no quarterback competition. The drama can be focused on positions battles at every other position. Though the combined drama may not be enough to match that of a quarterback battle.
Once again, that is not a bad thing.
