great post. that performance didn't reek of a guy "more focused than ever" on the QB position in the NFL. at least the second half didn't by any stretch. look it was the first game, on the road, division rival, against a team that was THE offseason darling... that's buzzsaw of an environment to play, but knowing that, you'd think the recently focused Josh Allen would have realized this might be a game to be a little conservative. nobody questions he might be the most gifted QB in the NFL physically, but he needs to make strides in the game as a tactician. its time to see even incremental progression, and we're just not seeing that yet. hate to see other guys load up on rings, wile our guy is always "if only..."

for a quarter of a billion dollar contract, he should be camping out in the film room, surrounded by the best people money can buy to help him become proficient, let alone elite at it. we can only question his commitment these days, and maybe the Diggs issue makes more sense in that context. I hope I'm wrong, I'd hate to see him fizzle to medicore

The irony here is if Josh would settle in and play the short dink and dunk, defenses would have to adapt and probably open up field quite a bit for the big plays... There is also nothing wrong with running the ball, playing field position, and let the Defense deliver- I mean, that our strong point via McD, right?

He'll get a season under Payton to really sort that out, maybe 2 seasons. He slimmer and appears to be making better decision this year. I mean, Hackett was the heady last year... what a bum

I mean, he single handily ruined Cam Newton as a human being in 2015... he was playing on another level.... in 2022 he is not the same player, but he's still one of the best defenders in the game... its a testament to how dominant he was in is prime.

Murray was a lone bright spot in a completely non functional Broncos offense... they couldn't run or pass block.... hate see is insurance policy like him go, given how backs get dinged...

If this offense can find balance between grinding a run game, intermediate passing game and long ball, they simple can't be defended. I think this year we will see game plans catered to the opponent and conditions... last year it was just "let Josh and Stephon do stuff".... it was crazy there were able to be a great offense doing that, but it was limited when it mattered most. If Kincaid and get up to speed quick, this offense is gonna be donkey.....

Its a mental game for this squad at this point. If they improved their mental toughness from last year, no reason they can't be there at the end. Champions overcome "injuries, being gassed, or being emotionally spent".... I like that we're not the talk of the offseason.... just go win, clean or ugly, don't care...

every team is looking for a guy who "stepped away from the game" for a year after a couple of mediocre end of season performances...

like the visor simulates fall/ winter light levels? interesting, I hadn't thought about that

wonder why he wears that visor when he doesn't use one during the season?

This is like me looking to shoot in the low eighties/ seventies... sure I know I have to work on the short game to get there.... will I do it consistently, not yet!

I'd be reluctant to put a 1 year QB that high, but he's the darling, and so that what you get. Allen needs a ring. Lets get him a ring. Josh with Andy Reid his whole career is two rings deep right now, I have no doubt.

I think with the additions just made, and Andy Reid coaching that unit, I think they may have gotten over the hump to something very special.... McD and Dorsey? I hope so. I really do.

Perhaps the Bengals game in inclement weather gives some insight into the signing....
