ORCHARD PARK http://www.denverbroncosteamonline.com/dre_mont-jones-jersey , N.Y. (AP) — The only time rookie quarterbacks Josh Allen and Sam Darnold got on the field when the Bills faced the Jets a month ago was to shake hands following Buffalo’s lopsided victory.On Sunday, much more is anticipated from both when the two AFC East teams meet in Orchard Park.Allen, drafted seventh overall, will make his third start for Buffalo since missing four games with a sprained right throwing elbow. And the Jets’ Darnold, drafted third, is on track to return since missing three games with a strained right foot.The focus on the two quarterbacks represents one of the few reasons for intrigue in a meeting of teams — Buffalo is 4-8 and the Jets 3-9 — with little on the line entering the final month.Just don’t ask Jets coach Todd Bowles to commit to starting Darnold despite the rookie being a full participant in practice Wednesday and Thursday.“Trying to get him better and getting him healthy, and then we’ll go from there,” Bowles said, when asked if he could satisfy people’s curiosity over who’ll start. “I’m not really looking to making people happy.”The Jets haven’t done much to make anyone happy for plenty of other reasons.In losing six straight, they’ve followed one low point with another T.J. Hockenson Jersey , while raising questions over Bowles’ job security.There was New York’s 41-10 loss to the Bills, after which Bowles said: “We stunk it up as coaches, we stunk it up as players.”Then came last weekend, when the Jets squandered a 16-0 lead in a 26-22 loss at Tennessee. Bowles referred to the collapse as “one of them games you’ll remember for the rest of your life.”Continuing Darnold’s development then becomes the priority, much like the Bills’ approach to Allen.Both have had their inconsistencies.In Week 2, Darnold became the NFL’s youngest quarterback to top 300 yards passing in a 20-12 loss to Miami. On the downside, he also leads the league with 14 interceptions, including four in his last start, a 13-6 loss to Miami.Allen was erratic, going 69 of 114 for 657 yards and two touchdowns Justice Hill Jersey , with five interceptions and a lost fumble in his first five starts. He has shown signs of progress by going 26 of 52 for 391 yards with three TDs and two interceptions in his past two.Allen is also proving to be an adept scrambler by combining for 234 yards rushing and a touchdown in the past two games.“We’re watching a young man grow and develop right in front of our eyes,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said.The Jets can only hope for the same once Darnold returns.“Before he got hurt, he was developing. He was seeing the defenses better. He was making his reads. He was making his audibles and checks at the line,” Bowles said. “That part of it we were very pleased with. Some of those things he’ll have to get back.”Here are other things to know when the Jets and Bills square off:BAD MEMORIESThe Jets insist they’ve moved on from the Bills’ loss, a game they trailed 31-3 at the half, and were outgained 451 to 199 yards offense. They haven’t forgotten, however.“Let’s cut to the chase, man — it’s personal,” safety Jamal Adams said. “They came in and they whooped us, man. They don’t like us. We don’t like them.”SPUTTERING JETSThe Jets have scored one or fewer touchdown in a franchise-worst five consecutive games. They’ve also been limited to one field goal on 17 fourth-quarter possessions over their past four games. Eight ended with punts http://www.ravenscheapstores.com/ben-powers-jersey-cheap , five with interceptions, two on downs and one missed field goal.Bowles said the blame is on the entire offense, and not simply first-year offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates.“It’s not from a lack of trying or everybody trying,” Bowles said. “It just hasn’t happened and it’s extremely frustrating that we can’t get a touchdown instead of field goals.”IMPROVING BILLSAfter going through three starters in their first nine games, the Bills averaged 248 yards offense and 10.6 points an outing.The past three games, including Matt Barkley’s one start against the Jets, the Bills are averaging 398 yards offense and 27.3 points.Allen said the improvement goes beyond statistics. “It’s the feel that we have. It’s the chemistry in the locker room right now,” he said.RARE TAKEAWAYSThe Jets tied an NFL record by going five straight without forcing a turnover. That drought ended when Trumaine Johnson returned a pass from Tennessee’s Marcus Mariota 31 yards for a touchdown.By comparison, the Jets have the NFL’s fourth-most giveaways (24), one fewer than Buffalo.THE FUTURE IS NOWAfter releasing receivers Kelvin Benjamin and Andre Holmes on Tuesday Iman Marshall Jersey , the Bills could have as many as five starters on offense with less than two years of NFL experience. Their defense already features four players in their first or second seasons. The NFL Draft is the most important in all of sports. Unlike other major sports, the NFL Draft will have many credible players going in the later rounds. A sport like the NBA will only see the top 5-10 players in the first round having huge hype. There will be some later picks that change franchises, but those are few and far between. Second round draft picks in the NBA show little value. Meanwhile, NFL draft picks in rounds as late as the sixth or seventh are important for teams adding new pieces. Football players have a chance to make an immediate impact with almost all picks having a chance to compete for a job in training camp.Unfortunately, not every NFL player will turn out to be a success. Later picks do have value, but the first round or two are still the best place to draft future superstars. The past two drafts have led to some questionable moves being made. 2018 featured a few shocking moves with fan bases questioning the draft selections from their teams. These picks are not busts and do have a great chance to succeed, but there is some pessimism regarding their careers. On a more established level, the 2017 NFL Draft led to a few football players having a poor rookie season. These players are already considered busts by fans and will have to work extremely hard to change perception or they may fall out of the league. Here are ten questionable 2018 NFL Draft picks and ten from 2017 that look like flops.
