Sit down Chargers fans and let me tell you a story. Once upon a time in a magical land named after a giant animal Cheap Mike Williams Jersey , an NFL franchise was born. Throughout the 1960’s and 70’s, the organization was a sad kingdom, finishing near the bottom of the pack year in and year out. But then came the wonderful year of 1988 and with it, heroes were born, and the kingdom was happy once again. Under the likes of their leader Sir Jim Kelly, the warriors known as the Bills were victorious and continued to show their dominance, finishing near the top of all the league. Once 1990 hit, the team was destined to rule the realm and become the best team in all the land. But they fell short of conquering the goal to the Giants of New York. Then the Tribe from Washington D.C. Then back to back years to the Cowboys of Dallas. In four chances for the Bills to finally claim their rightful throne as rulers of the NFL, they fell every time to the region known as the NFC East. Following their 1999 debacle to the Tennessee Titans, things would be dark for the Bills Kingdom and their subjects known as Bills Mafia. They go through a period known as ‘quarterback hell,’ with the likes of Sir Drew Bledsoe, Sir. J.P. Losman, Duke Ryan Fitzpatrick, and Count E.J. Manuel. For 20 years, the franchise was destined to remain near the bottom of all stats surrounding the NFL. Until one day, a hero arose from the ashes. A quick runner with excellent leadership skills and the ability to command his troops, Sir Tyrod Taylor entered the kingdom and broke the curse, sending the Bills back to the postseason. And how did the organization thank him? Well by sending him off the Land of Cleve, where quarterback dreams go to die since 1999. But have no fear Bills, your new leader is ready to take control. Say hello to Sir Nathan Peterman. Oh, his realm is over? Well, that was quick. Instead Cheap Kyzir White Jersey , the Bills will now turn to their young prince, the heir to Sir Kelly as the team’s hopeful future leader of the land. While still young, just a boy in the face, his arm is strong while his other skills are weak. It’s time for Sir Joshua Allen to take the crown and lead his Bill nation back to the postseason and further. What a great story. For anyone other than Bills fans. The Los Angeles Chargers were blessed with a gift as their prepare for their long-awaited sequel against the Bills this Sunday in Orchard Park. The Bills announced earlier this week that the rookie quarterback from Wyoming would be taking over the offense. That might be the best thing for the Bills as well. The last time these two teams met was Peterman’s first start. His stat line? 6 of 14 for 66 yards and five interceptions. In one half. It’s now known around the league that when a quarterback has a rough game that they are doing their ‘best Nathan Peterman impression.’ The Chargers secondary might not have their hands as full as last time, but there’s still plenty to be wary about from the gunslinger. Known for his powerful arm, prototypical frame and ability to examine the field, Allen does have the tools to be a dangerous quarterback in today’s league. That being said, there still are significant flaws in Allen’s overall game. His accuracy is erratic, his arm knows one speed, decision-making skills are all over the place, and he’s never thrown more than for 56% completion wise in his career. That includes his days in high school out in Firebaugh, California. There’s no telling what will happen when Allen takes his first steps as an NFL starter come Sunday afternoon. Being a first-round quarterback usually means people expect results right away. Looking back at several recent quarterbacks drafted early, their debuts have been mixed. The New York Jets started fellow rookie Sam Darnold week one against the Detroit Lions. On the first snap of the game, Darnold impressed the fans (the Lions fans that is) by throwing a pick-six to cornerback Quandre Diggs. Darnold would have the last laugh as he would shine in his debut going 16 of 21 for 198 yards and a pair of touchdowns, giving the Jets the win. Chicago Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky was much more lackluster as he would go 12 of 25 for 128 yards with a touchdown and interception. Houston Texans Deshaun Watson was named the starter last season in week 2, helping the Texans seal the win by combining his dual-threat ability to put up 192 yards and a solo score. Philadelphia Eagles franchise signal-caller Carson Wentz was named the starter week 1 and looked great under center, going 22 of 37 for 278 yards a pair of touchdowns. Los Angeles Rams gunslinger Jared Goff was on the opposite side of the spectrum. Going 17 of 31 for 134 yards, this would become the start of what could only be considered a disastrous rookie campaign. While all five quarterbacks look to have found some promise to be legitimate candidates as potential faces of the NFL once Tom Brady calls it a career, Allen posses one thing none of those quarterbacks have; arm strength. People are calling his throwing arm a cannon that has been surgically attached to his right shoulder. The Chargers know a little something about players with great arms, they faced him last week. In the season opener, Los Angeles defense went toe to toe Kansas City Chiefs future star known as Patrick Mahomes. Granted, while it wasn’t a perfect game http://www.chargerscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-virgil-green-jersey , Mahomes was able to go 15 of 27 for 256 yards and find the end zone on four different occasions.He also did most of his damage with the help of just one player; Tyreek Hill. The fastest man in the NFL known by the nickname “Cheetah” collected seven receptions for 169 yards and three total touchdowns.Mahomes has been praised for becoming one of the next big faces in the NFL, much like Allen. While the Chargers secondary might have taken a beating last weekend, that shouldn’t be the same results this week against the Bills. Allen came during the third quarter Allen came in to try and fix the mess that Peterman put the Bills under. Going 6 of 15 for 74 yards, Allen nearly tripled Peterman’s stat line. While several throws were still rocky, Allen was able to show some growth once entering the game. But he was sacked three times for 16. The Bills offensive line allowed six total sacks for 28 yards. With a young rookie quarterback still looking to create an identity with the offense, the Chargers defense will need to step up and make him as uncomfortable as possible. Looking back at the Chiefs game, the Chargers only were able to come up and force one sack. That came from safety Derwin James flying off the line of scrimmage and beating offensive tackle Eric Fisher. While the Chargers defense might not feature defensive Joey Bosa for the second straight week, players such as defensive end Melvin Ingram and outside linebackers Kyle Emmanuel and Kyzir White will need to win their battles off the edge. Mahomes is excellent, but his arsenal is one of the league’s best. Tight end Travis Kelce is a nightmare matchup in solo coverage while Hill can take the top off even the best defensive backfields. Sammy Watkins is a quality possession receiver while both DeAnthony Thomas and Chris Conley can keep drives alive in short yardage situations. It also helps Mahomes that his running backs have averaged a career 10.5 yards per catch out of the backfield. Allen isn’t so lucky. Kelvin Benjamin is an overrated red zone that still is looking to break out while tight end Charles Clay has yet to eclipse 600 receiving yards since joining the Bills in 2015. Zay Jones is a quality depth receiver starting on the outside while Jeremy Kearly has bounced around the league for years, with his best season coming in 2012 with the Jets. Running back LeSean McCoy can take some pressure off in the passing game but not as much as a quarterback needs. Last week, McCoy caught just one pass for -1 yards. Bottom line; the Bills receiving unit won’t be doing any favors for Allen as most of them are either past their prime pass catchers or practice squad members. At the end of the day, Allen will start. The Bills need him to start following another disastrous start from Peterman. Like most rookies, he’ll make several mistakes. Mistakes he can’t always control, it’s part of the ritual. But before you blame Allen and call him a bust before being given a chance, remember: his offensive line will likely cause him to move outside the pocket while his receivers won’t be able to haul in his cannonball of passes. Allen was destined to fail before he even stepped out on the field. The Chargers defense will need to capitalize on Allen’s misfortunes. The pass rush will be critical, coverage will need to be tight, and the offense will need to continue to improve. This shouldn’t be a hard win for Anthony Lynn and company to face heading into Sunday afternoon. If the Chargers can expose the rookie for what he is, a rookie, this should be a recreation of the November beatdown less than a year ago. If Allen can succeed around his non-existent supporting cast, it’s going to be a long season for Chargers fans everywhere.Los Angeles Chargers Daily Links: Is Drafting a Quarterback Inevitable? What is the fantasy shelf life of the top current wide receivers? - Daniel KelleyAllen’s elite production is tied in larger part to playing with one of the best anticipation passers of our generation in Philip Rivers. Their styles mesh perfectly. How much longer will Rivers play for and will the Chargers have a plan to replace him? If not, it could render Allen a risky bet to continue playing at such a high level.Los Angeles Chargers 2018 offseason moves - PFF Analysis TeamThe offensive line in Los Angeles will look to keep Rivers clean from pressure more often this coming season as he was under pressure on 37.4 percent of his dropbacks a year ago. Yet, Rivers still was sacked when pressured on just 8.1 percent of those dropbacks http://www.chargerscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-russell-okung-jersey , the lowest rate in the league.Evaluating the fantasy status of 2018's second-year WRs - Dan ClasgensEleven catches for 95 yards was all that Williams was able to muster during his rookie year in Los Angeles. He dealt with a herniated disc for the first few months of the season and wound up buried behind Keenan Allen, Tyrell Williams and others in the Chargers’ passing attack.However, the team has too much invested not to give him a hard look in his second season. His current ADP of 14.03 offers great value given his pedigree.Jets Claim K Nick Rose Off Waivers - Zach LinksThe Chargers plan to have Caleb Sturgis and Roberto Aguayo duke it out in camp for the team’s kicking job, though they could also look at other options given their field goal issues last year. Meanwhile, the Jets will pit Rose against Cairo Santos.Most memorable NFL draft moments for all 32 teams - ESPNThe Manning family made it public that the Ole Miss quarterback did not want to play for the Chargers, so Eli Manning holding up a blue and gold jersey with a forced smile after the Chargers made him the No. 1 overall selection in 2004 was one of the most awkward moments in NFL draft history. Of course, the Chargers would go on to trade Manning to the Giants for Philip Rivers after they selected Rivers at No. 4, along with three other selections that turned into linebacker Shawne Merriman, kicker Nate Kaeding and tackle Roman Oben.Best undrafted players in every NFL team's history - ESPNA power forward in college who led Kent State to the Elite Eight of the NCAA tournament, the athletic Gates changed the tight end position in the NFL. Signed as an undrafted rookie by the Chargers in 2003, he's the NFL leader in receiving touchdowns by a tight end with 114. An eight-time Pro Bowler, he's the team's franchise leader in receptions (927), receiving yards (11,508) and touchdowns (114). Quarterback Philip Rivers and Gates have connected for 87 touchdowns, which are the most in league history for a tight end-quarterback tandem.Philip Rivers doesn't see Chargers drafting a QB as a negative - Eric Williams"I look around at places, some guys that have had far more success than I have had, and they're drafting quarterbacks," Rivers said. "So it's inevitable. It's going to happen at some point. It's happened at other places, we all know where they are. And those guys are either still sitting, or they've been traded. So who knows?Social Media Information:BFTB Facebook Page: Click here to like our pageBFTB Twitter: Follow @BFTB_ChargersThe Lightning Round Twitter: Follow @Lightning_RoundThe Lightning Round Facebook: Click here to like our pageBFTB Manager: Richard Wade: Follow @RichardWade
