Allen might have ADHD? Dude got bored up 13-6. He was at the 38 with a chance to get a few more yards and go up 16-6. You can’t throw those picks. Risk aversion is key.
Allen needs to read the defense faster and get the ball out. These 2 deep shells means a ton of open outlets. Allen was efficient early then got bored. Boring wins games!
What I saw tonight was a team that lacks a QB capable of taking what the defense gives him. Allen refuses to take the cheese often enough for us to win easily. Every game is an adventure for captain hero ball. We need less turnovers and more efficient boring Captain Checkdown.
The problem is Kincaid deserves a pocket passer, and Allen does not read defenses fast enough and distributes the ball efficiently. Allen got greedy and turned a boring win into a meltdown. No hero hall can overcome 4 TOs.
There were tons of short dump offs to be had vs Bengals and Jets. Allen did it 75% of the time tonight. If he hit every check we would have been up at least 16-6 late in the 3rd instead of 13-6.
Considering he is 27 at the supposed height of his powers. The Jets defense mandates a conservative approach.
This sequence considering the down and distance was inexcusable.

(4:08 - 3rd) (Shotgun) J.Allen pass deep middle intended for S.Diggs INTERCEPTED by J.Whitehead [Q.Williams] at NYJ -1. Touchback.
He’s sucked 2 games in a row. The Cincy game 10 points, tonight 16 points. Great job.
Allen was developed in his 2nd year. He didn’t throw over a 1,000 balls in college. His learning curve required 2 ramp seasons and ideally he should have sat pine in 2018.
