But a LOT of people think that way. For years, my buddies (who are not Bills fans) think Josh is a downright wuss. It's crazy...I know.. but they do. The constant waving of arms after he has been lightly hit looking for a flag. The other teams always jabbering at him and he talks back - even last game vs Miami Josh was yelling at a Miami player who obviously got his rabbit ears. The sulking.
I NEVER agreed but this season... he sure does show a new tune. Let's see what happens this weekend.
Ooof. Bad take. Just shows you and your friends don't know football. What, 5+ years of great play and then now suddenly he's a fraud? Very bad take. A lot of people?? LOL. Such a bad take. You sound like a trolling Bucs fans.

I don't think it's a thing, because mixed in there he had a record setting completion% game and great QBR (averaging 10.5 y/a) against a solid Kansas City defense. But against the Panthers? meh, he missed some throws but didn't really need him. Against Atlanta and Miami? terrible in the 1st halves when the game was still there for the taking. It's like the whole team including Allen didn't put in the preparation.
So this team is more defined by the "playing with their food" analogy? I can see it. The up games and down games have been blatant.

Well said 👏
As someone who has had a broken nose, are we sure that didn't mess up his vision? He wore the visor for weeks afterwards, my own experience with a broken nose was similar to a concussion, in fact I had a "mild concussion" when I broke mine. IMO, this is possible cause, because Josh hasn't been "Same Ol' Josh" since then, and I'm just wondering if that's a thing.

I think it's BS you have to go manually "claim" the credit. They should just offer it automatically to everyone.

I mean it would effect anyone in their day to day life I would think, especially when so much is demanded of them in terms of focus and preparation and details, etc.
Hopefully whatever it is, he snaps out of it soon.

I'm really starting to wonder if Haillee's mental health struggles with the changes happening being married that she talked about aren't starting to negatively effect Josh.
I do believe that type of stuff can affect him. Reminds of the Bengals playoff loss and the rumors about police being called to his house the night before.

But he is terrible at jump balls right now, which was a strength of his in college. That's the biggest issue.
Agree 100%, which is why I said even in that type of system he's still not a #1. To me the biggest issue is if we know this, why aren't we trying Moore, Samuel, or Palmer? It can't just be because of injuries.
-
Keon is a system player. He has to be in a system that takes jump ball shots in the red zone and even in that system he's not a #1. If he can't get separation then he needs to compensate more with his hands, and not catching over 60% of balls thrown his way on Sunday is a terrible signal. So why are we still starting him? Can a reporter ask that question in a press conference?

If we're going to keep playing games like this, at least let Ray Davis kick more field goals so we get SOME entertainment. In all seriousness I do appreciate these threads, being able to properly vent, and read a collective group of thoughts, because yesterday was frustrating as hell because of how many questions it left me with.
I thought Elijah Moore was a speed threat? He runs a 4.3, why aren't we using him as our #1 WR? If Keon can't get open, why are we continuing to use him as our #1? Why are we suddenly making dumb short yardage play-calls, like the tush-push, when it doesn't work as well as it used to? As reliable and pivotal as Mack Hollins was in our offense last year, why didn't we just make sure he stayed with us? Why isn't Beane just owning he hasn't delivered a Diggs replacement? Even with all of that, Josh still looks off. Turning over the ball this much without the greatness we've come to expect? Because WR's aren't getting open? No, this all seems like something else. This team's rhythm doesn't feel anything like it has the past several years.
I see some folks telling people to calm down and I see some folks already wanting to clean house, I don't know but it doesn't sound too crazy when you realize we have to play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in less than 6 days!

Is it just me, or does it appear we don't have any major competition again except the Bucs and Eagles?

Ah man. A replay? Didn't we win the first time? Replays are for what you guys call ties.
You sound like a guy who doesn't believe in marinating.
Man we were so close to a blowout.

What if it's a trade for Jordan Addison and Harrison Phillips?

yet alone one that could just be to accommodate injury signings for the next couple months…..can you imagine if it’s just pay 3-4 practice squad players?
And Beane goes on WGR doubling down about WRs 😂

This game felt like the Bills had been holding back a lot of the playbook in games prior, which makes me happy. Earlier on this season felt like they were holding back a lot more of the playbook than in past seasons. Not only that but the fever pitch before the game was insane, national media writing off the Bills for having a few bad games, and usually when the entire national sports media piles on against the Bills: Allen Iverson's favorite quarterback shows up.
After the first touchdown, it felt like the Bills were flirting with a blowout on the Chiefs, and again later when it was 28-13. I really wanted to see that but I think it was obvious the Bills played insanely better pretty much the entire game, and the stats prove that. Not only that, but it was nice to see the defense play with a meanness we haven't seen in a while. AJ's hit on Mahomes, Mahomes barely having any time in the pocket, Bishop's hit on Kelce, Reggie's blocks on #32 from the Chiefs. Loved every bit of it.

Apparently this is the accurate Josh Allen most recent Halloween photo. https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=122175782276607375&set=a.122101364090607375

This was from a few years ago according to Hailee. This year's she's her character from Sinners but in the 90's not the 30's.

That's the opposite of "finding a rhythm". When you scheme to get the QB in a rhythm, the idea is typically some high percentage pass in the short to medium area. Think some short crossers or short outs. Throwing a lower percentage pass deep down field is counter productive to what you're looking for
You're right and that's bad grammar on my part, didn't mean it as a run on sentence when I mentioned the one or two shots down the field. Point was mostly to get KC defense to move a guy down to open some deep shot.

The thought I keep coming back to it is if this year's lack of offensive production is bc we haven't gone deep into the playbook? Mostly we've been doing zone runs, low routes, or jet sweeps, a few basic screens but that's it. In year's past folks people have talked about not showing too deep into the playbook until after the bye week or major games like this coming up.
I'm still on the fence about Keon's development and feel that has turned into more of a mob mentality driven wave of negativity. I like Steve Smith and believe some of his points on Keon, but Keon has almost as many yards less than 1.5 seasons into his career than Steve Smith did in his first 2 years, it's still early, I think his issues with the team are more conduct right now than anything, considering the recent benchings for conduct. They always talked about his jump game anyway and he runs a 4.7, so I never had any expectations of him being a YAC guy, just a red zone possession type WR that go get the jump ball, and if it doesn't work out then it's Beane's fault for drafting a 4.7 WR imo.
Anyway, I'm just curious if some think we haven't rolled out much in terms of playbook compared to past years, which has been a trend to try to get on a streak.

Call me crazy but I think the Chiefs are coming into Buffalo more limited. Pacheco is out, their left tackle is out and guard is possibly. Bills worst aspect on defense is rush defense and the test just got easier for them on that. We're also discounting the returns of Hoecht, Ogunjobi, and Hairston. This is also Christian Benford's first game against the Chiefs, last year in the Divisionals he got injured on that first play. I think if we can put up 27-30 points we win.
- Let James Cook: in 5 total matchups against the Chiefs, Cook has 232 yards, averaging 4.5 ypc, and 5 touchdowns. Keep the Chiefs high-powered offense off the field.
- Do something to get Josh in a rhythm early too, like one or two shots down the field, and hopefully he finds a rhythm.

Getting pregnant doesn’t feel like the culprit unless he really didn’t want to.
That said, I recall trying (and failing) to get pregnant with our second and that causing lots of emotional stress, especially with the miscarriages. Those were awful, and would cause anyone to have issues that bled into other parts of their life, especially depending how their wife handled it (not great in my case).
I'm wondering if that's what Hailee's "Can you really have it all" question came from.

FWIW she hasn't been seen as much publicly lately.

Can put this here or in Keon thread but Steve explains why Josh is getting off of Keon so quick and how he actually isn’t open even though people get in the comments and say he is open Josh didn’t wait long enough.
Steve explains why those people are wrong and Keon is a bust.
I like James Palmer a lot. Him saying he had people at the Browns telling him they couldn't believe they got a 3rd round pick for Amari Cooper. 😳

You're grossly exaggerating things. A lot of fans/people?? Prove it. IMO a very small percentage of the fanbase would agree with you. Very small. That's beside the fact you're avoiding explaining how the last 5-6 years is different.
