Billsfan1972

Funny that's what I saw the first time I watched the game!!!! Constant pressure, ducking out of & escaping sacks, making some great throws too. And yes a dumb decision or two.

I am a huge Allen fan (he is a Bill after all). Can't compare Bradshaw & Favre's stats. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/F/FavrBr00.htm

Check his career stats..... Not impressive & only 3 pro bowls..... Can thank Chuck Noll for his career. Note bad stats early & indifferent later in career. And a different era. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/B/BradTe00.htm

Don't you understand the Bills & some on this board's mentality? Bills football is 17-13 wins and rely on the defense and any offense is a surprise.

And I agree...... I just find it interesting and looking at it as a Bills fan that is not used to seeing competent QB play. Yes the 300 yard stat sticks in my craw and it is unfathomable that the Bills have gone so long without it and still at times don't seem to grasp it is a passing league. I still see the control the game between the 20's mentality. The lulls bother me as does the inability to play 4 quarters of offensive football (heck I'd take 3). Interesting no Lamar Jackson threads after getting beat soundly (though 183 yards in the 4th quarter).

That my excitement level is so high watching Allen and wanting to see the Offense explode. Here are the QB Stats & not in one category is he in the top third. https://www.espn.com/nfl/stats/player/_/table/passing/sort/passingYards/dir/desc I am really enjoying and cheering Josh Allen on, but want to see the offense do better, which yes I blame on coaching and not having better weapons.

Coaching staff not Allen.....

Another weapon & a 300 yard passing game would be really nice..... 31 300 yard games through week 3. 48 total QB games have thrown for more yards then Buffalo's best game of 254. 21, 17 & 28 points in the three games where the defense has played well. Again game management can only get you so far.

And what is the Bills record those 36 games? .500 I think. Wouldn't 300 maybe help them to a few more wins? Heck 18 losses and not a 300 yard game. Pretty sure last one was vs. Miami Christmas Eve that the Bills lost in OT.

And yes Josh did a remarkable job considering the O-line, which has been a concern for how many years now?

Again missing the point. This is the offensive philosophy and again shows Bills fans have been down so long, the smallest glimmer of hope and they can't see the bigger issue. This team needs to show it can score more points & not be in life & death struggles vs. The Jets & Bengals.....

How is that possible, when the next nearest was 11 games I think? 3-0 vs. teams 1-8 and wins, but certainly nothing convincing. Let those explain again that qb's & teams throwing for 300 means nothing and further explain how it is a meaningless stat. Daniel Jones in his first game did it (as did Kyler Murray). This is embarrassing...... Can the Bills get the monkey off their back?

BTW anyone watch Lamar Jackson today? Stats look pretty so so (padded in the 4th) and saw a few hail mary/lame ducks that could have been intercepted.

BTW Brady threw a pick 6 today. He need s to learn from those....

The O-line offered minimal protection. How many yards was he responsible after plays broker down?

7 QB hits, & he only took one sack. Buffalo had 3 qb hits & 2 sacks. Sorry o-line didn't do a great job of protecting and Josh made some great throws on the run. He extended plays, great runs and yep a terrible pick.... The pass to Knox was a great read and yes an extra 15 yards..... But otherwise it was all Allen.

Yes & one stupid play under immense pressure. And yet again bad mid-game adjustments..... Oh yea the game winning drive was all Allen..... But sure tell me otherwise.

McD's offensive philosophy is to win 17-13, no 300 yard games and to control the clock & field position. Saw this as soon as the Bills had a 14 point lead on the Giants. Play not to lose, not win..... I expect Mahomes would be more a game manager here..... Please prove me wrong McD.

I bet you McD could neuter Mahomes.....

They had already scored 21 points & threw for over 200 yards...... McD knows that is when to put on the brakes...... 21 points from the offense & moving the ball through the air is just not allowed if a Buffalo Bill. Now if the D was responsible for 14 of those points that would be a different story. Inexcusable and only to paraphrase Bruce Springsteen "like a dog that has been beat too much, you spend half your life just a covering up" that is a Bills' fan who is scared to let the offense impose it's will and score points & throw the football!!!!!

Yes I keep searching and it is not just the fact it is batted, but if then intercepted, how does one view it. In the case of the Int Sunday, yes it is bad luck, but if balls are batted too often it is an issue.

Interesting I can't find where there are stats on QB's and batted passes. I will freely admit that I want to see the Bills succeed with a high powered offense and Allen to be the engine (that's what a fan wants). So he had one int on a pass that Beasley miffed and another on a batted ball (yes and there could have been another two as well). Generally batted balls fall harmlessly to the ground, but tried to find stats on batted balls & QB's. Couldn't find any. I heard Kyler Murray had 5 week 1 and none were intercepted. This to me is an interesting stat and surprised I couldn't find it. Maybe there are other advanced QB stats such dropped Ints, balls thrown away, accuracy stats that also would be helpful in better assessing a QB's performance.

You're right it didn't hit him between the 1 & the 0. If it did, we'd be debating he threw it too hard.....

No it was an easy catch..... Middle of the field not going to get drilled looking at the qb..... Couldn't stand the announcers blaming Allen.

No NFL receiver should drop that ball..... He's paid $10,000,000/yr because he is a sure handed possession receiver. But if you want to see Allen fail, then I guess it was his fault.....
