    Absolutely hate going for it on 4th down. Does anyone not see the score? We are up 11. We just need to kick a few FGs, and then this a snoozer. 
     

    I love being aggressive, except when the score says you shouldn’t be.

     

    I would have kicked the FG,  but I can't argue with it if it works.

    Murray and Harris will be the difference this year for us, if Josh cuts down the turnovers…

    that run looked like Murray wasn’t takin no for an answer!!

     

    One of the biggest weaknesses of this offense in recent years has been the inability to grind out short yardage plays with the RB.  It looks like they may have finally found an answer for that issue.

    Tell yourself what you want. Josh has to own this. When he is frustrated by a defense that won't let him throw deep, he gets reckless and makes critical mistakes. He refuses to take what is given.  DCs know it and the Jets gave a master class in it last Monday. 

     

    I don't disagree,  he needs to be more patient and I'm not going to defend that mess Monday night. 

     

    On the other hand,  I don't agree with this narrative that he's been an interception machine the last two seasons.  His interception rate has been a little higher than you'd like,  but not outside the norm,  around once every 41 pass attempts.  The fumbles are a bigger problem than the interceptions.

    32 picks in two years , most of any QB. It isn't one game.

     

    That's true,  but it's also somewhat a function of throwing more passes than most other teams.  Matt Stafford had a higher interception percentage than Josh Allen in both 2021 and 2022 (Allen was 17th and 24th, respectively).  Stafford led the league in total INTs in 2021.  They won the Super Bowl that year. 

     

    These days,   QBs are throwing so few interceptions that a few more than average is not necessarily the end of the world. 

  5. I think he had a bad game because he got impatient in the opener against an excellent defense.  It happens.  If it continues over the next few weeks,  then we may have a problem,  but I expect that he'll be fine.  

     

    As for the second half of last year, we know he was playing with a throwing arm injury,  so I can generally give him a pass for struggling at times.

    In typical Buffalo fashion, let’s trash our elite QB after one bad game.

     

    Maybe the bengals should get rid of burrow after that game yesterday as well

     

    I think he'll be fine and this was just a **** game against a team that matches well against them,  but at the same time,  Allen deserves plenty of criticism for this one.  If he just plays smart and doesn't turn the ball over,  the Bills were going to win this game.
