All of this I agree with. Dont let this blind you to accurate criticism of the QB though.

No I agree with that. Allen should have hit it

LOL A phrase from the film 'a few good men' comes to mind. ?

For the record, I don't know that I'd say "most" QBs make those 2 throws. I would say, however, that Allen should have hit at least one of them. Though the play at the end I admit I'm okay with throwing that one over the top and safe; the thinking being that you've got 2 more chances. How was Josh supposed to know that the right side of the line would play turnstile on consecutive game-deciding plays? Play at the end by allen no one should criticize, he gave beasley a chance.

Defenders only

Something is going on mentally with him that is affecting his technique. If you watch his presser he talks about having to sort this out. Haha or a wide open throw.

What I will say is Allen looks like a different player when he has run calls built into the gameplan. So many of his good drives have one or two or his runs in them.

Come on

I agree with all of these points. they could do these things. I think my concern is why Allen is so off. I'm sorry, but calling a couple of running plays to start the game shouldn't mean that the QBs arm is totally off on the first throws the QB has, know what I mean? . If we are always trying to make the QB comfortable to start the game then the opposition starts to know what we are doing more.

Did we not have 3 3 and outs? Remember the replays of beasley open and the overthrow to knox?

You mean that we could of started the game with simple throws for Allen?

Ok. He's not throwing picks. Let's see if he progresses to improve everything. (Not to be argumentative but the majority of the first half was the Allen of last year.)

Ok

Yes I usually do that's is accurate. In my opinion Daboll is an easier and trendy criticism. He should be critized but I think Allen gets more of a pass because he is popular. Your attitude comes across as just 'accept things the way they are.' No. I expect better.

I think he's a tottenham fan if I remember his picture correctly, can't be king as a spurs fan (sorry jrober!)

Sure. And this is a little bit too intellectual. More completions is never a bad thing. You are going to advance across the field. With that way of thinking you can never know if a missed endzone throw would have made a difference to a game if it was completed. The missed throw to knox in the endzone was an example of alot that happens with Allen. Its not rocket science to think you are better of in the grand scheme of things for throwing and catching that for a touchdown. How is it a better question? It's another good question! That's the problem I've got, they can both be true

Maybe it's partly the different emotions people feel when watching him play. Annoyed, elated etc

It's natural to ask the question 'would this result be different if those open receivers were hit.'

I dont think mcdermott is as outside the box as this.

This is true aswell. The first down runs were annoying

Yes and I genuinely agree with a lot of what Nextmanup says. I just read it as telling the truth. Maybe we are prophets ??

It's true mate. On both counts

Need to sort out what's going on with him mentally. That's affecting his play. Early in games if you give him two stud WRs he still wouldn't hit them.

Thing is, It doesn't matter if your ceiling is sky high if you are going to play large chunks of the game like your very low basement.

Its not really about turning back time of course. It's a discussion about what is holding this team back by comparing to other teams.
