Allen looked very good today

Comparing their rookie years. Please try to actually read before your snark. -

I have. I recall Aikman being that type. -

Your usual nonsense unfortunately. Every young QB has to get the game to slow down for him. I disagree after watching yesterday. He's threw 19 times in less than 3 full quarters, which is reasonable given the focus on the run game. As time goes on he'll process quicker and get the ball out quicker. I'm not saying he's great by any means. He has a lot to learn. What I'm saying is those who insist he's making no progress aren't really watching what's going on. -

He is like most every young QB. The game has to slow down for him. It takes time. Some have it slow down faster, some slower, some never. Watch the game against the Pack, then watch yesterday. Watch them objectively. He's getting there. He's not blindly running out of the pocket. He's starting to be more decisive. Can I guarantee he'll get there? No. But progress is definitively evident if you just watch the games without preconceived bias. -

Rewatch the Packers game. Then rewatch yesterday. Then try and tell me he hasn't improved. Does he process fast enough yet? No. Is he getting better? Yes. and if you say no you simply don't want to face reality. -
Anyone with an objective view of this game saw progress from Allen. He may or may not be the guy long term, but if you watched today and claim he showed no progress you are simply biased against him.

Someone needs to be fired over Mahomes right now.
oldmanfan replied to Klaista2k's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Bills regime can rightfully be criticized for not having a vet behind Allen from game 1. As for Mahomes 1TD and 4 picks the last few quarters. And no one is getting fired now or later for not picking him. -
To a guy that was double covered. Perhaps he wanted to be sure it wasn't picked? Watching Brady right now. See a lot if short patterns. Do you know what Daboll called? We're longer patterns run? Were guys open on those? Should I go on?

And you are no more knowledgeable about playing QB in thie NFL than anyone else around here. Quit pretending that you are.

Go back and watch the game. Watch his throws. Seriously. I knew the outcome before I watched and read some of the crap posted before I did. So I watched specifically to see how Allen did. The kid made one truly bad throw today, his first pass of the game.
-
My point is simple and stated above. You come in here as if you're some sort of QB expert and you're not as shown by your Winston love. You also like to cherry pick throws. You've harped on Allen's first throw of the game as if that proves he can never succeed and ignore a number of other good throws he made today. The kid has things to learn but objective views suggest he is coming along. To make my point even clearer: you aren't knowledgeable about QBs. Does that explain it clearly enough?
-
You said specifically back then you would have traded everything to get him. And thus far his career has been less than impressive. Good game today, less than impressive overall. You like to pontificate about QBs as if you have some grand understanding of the position. In reality you're no more knowledgeable than anyone else and based on your Winston love worse than most.

Open your eyes and watch the game next time. meanwhile the golden boy of KC just threw a bad pick to end the half in NE. Young QBs learn with time. To say Allen can't make the throws needed after seeing him out it right in guys several times today is the height of nonsense. As low as thinking Winston was going to be the next great QB?
-
Had my daughter's birthday today so DVR'd the game. Just watched it and if you're saying Allen showed nothing and had no improvement and so on you're nuts. I saw one truly off target throw. Looked better at pre-snap reads. On target with the majority of throws. Running threat as he's shown before. Long way to go still but certainly better than some here are saying. Peterman though. You cannot make that throw. I think we win if Allen didn't get hurt. That is one throw. To the the rest of the posters, this is the guy who would have traded anything to get Jamie's Winston. He really has no idea about QBs.

What Do Young People Think When We Post About 90's Bills Teams

I wish many if you had been around in the 60's. Watching the original team in the Rockpile was an experience.
