I'm calling it now. Allen will have an underwhelming career with the Bills. You can't start a rookie qb when he's not ready. It's a really bad idea in general to turn to a backup whose not ready just because your starter is garbage.

Alex Smith was thrown to the wolves repeatedly by Mike Nolan on a bad team, when he wasn't ready and even while injured. Nolan also questioned Alex's manhood to the press. Alex did all right in the long run, but truthfully most would not survive what he went through.
