Josh Allen obviously isn't Lamar Jackson or Mike Vick in terms of speed specifically, but Allen was clocked in at a 4.75 at the Combine. Here's a list of QBs who ran faster than 4.75 at the combine: Derek Carr Blaine Gabbert Marcus Mariota Andrew Luck Mitchell Trubisky Ben Roethlisberger had the same time. I challenge folks to watch these 2 highlight videos and focus solely on his "breakaway runs." Personally, I see him running with and even outrunning DBs frequently. We all know Jerry Rice was clocked at 4.7 and that simply wasn't his game speed. His game speed was more like 4.5 or 4.4. So how about Josh once the pads go on? Does he look faster than any/all the guys mentioned above? What about Aaron Rodgers? What about Russell Wilson? And finally... can players train and get faster? Is it possible that's what actually happened between the Combine and the 2018 season or was it just "pajama speed" vs "pad speed?"

Yes. The timeline is VERY messy.

No. Husband probably would've been pi$$ed at you if you did... in part because his wife would've given him extra $#it because you did it, not him.

Interesting... how disabled is he? Honestly I usually find that the physically disabled very much prefer to do almost everything on their own and when there are tasks they need help with, they don't keep going back to it unless necessary or at least have a plan of attack. How about this, I went to a manager in a movie theater because the woman next to me brought her 3 kids to a PG movie (Jumanji 2) and her 3 year old just wouldn't shut up and she wouldn't take her out! Manager came and kicked them out... am I a bad person? No. You're not a bad person. You're too good. You don't seem to belong here.

The Witcher is a stinker in a lot of ways, yet I've watched 5 episodes I think and I'll keep watching.

The NIT years suck for Syracuse. I don't even watch that. I hope they sneak into the tourney to give me my sports fix through at least mid March

This team needs at least 20 wins, probably 21 wins to make the NCAA tournament... my opinion, of course. Who sees us making the tourney with our remaining schedule?

If you read the article and what all of the players say, it's basically about winning, not the city itself.

"Poor Man's Cam Newton" That line from Rosenthal and the indication that it's all he'll ever be is really an accurate representation of what the national narrative is and will be on Josh until he breaks it.

He just sucks

Dawkins too. Smith also let the outside guy run around him. Pretty pathetic that 2 guys got through that quickly with 3 guys rushing.

It's a 3 man rush that gets to Allen almost immediately because of an absolute failure on Singletary and Lee Smith. 3 man rush means there were 8 guys in coverage. Josh just didn't stand a chance.

Hate to bump this, but...

Sorry if already posted

What's wrong with Michael Pittman as a prospect?

Allen doesn't need a refined WR. What Allen needs is a big WR with good hands who will fight for the ball and will find ways to get open when plays break down and Allen moves from the pocket and looks to throw the ball. Allen isn't, at least at this point, a precise timing QB in the sense that he needs his WR to be at "X" spot at "Y" time. For a young QB, get a guy who can get open for him and he can get the ball to. Shenault sounds like one of the most exciting WRs in this draft, to me.

The drop percentage is both disgusting and encouraging moving forward. Disgusting because they both had very high drop percentages and the 2 of them combined for nearly 20% of Allen's total passes this year. Encouraging because they're both rookies and I'll attribute the excessive dropsies to the rookie yips. I think both will be better moving forward. I'm particularly excited about Knox once he learns how to hold onto the football.

Not a chance in hell our draft falls that way. I could see Shenault in the 1st and RB in the 3rd, but I guarantee we draft a defensive player in the front half of the draft given who our Head Coach is.

I get very sad when the football season is over. I know they say January & February is the most depressing time of year for people overall because of the Holiday season just ending. I think it's because Football season comes to an often halting and heartbreaking end for all NFL fans, save those of one more team. Less than 7 months and counting til we get a taste of it again with the preseason...

Honestly, why the ***** do civilians go on Helicopters?!?!?! Living in Hawai'i there are Helicopter tours that crash frequently enough that I would encourage EVERYONE to stay away from those things.

Main page for sure. Kobe is one of the 5-10 most recognizable sports icons IN THE WORLD!!! This is nuts.

Just based off the very little I know about college football, I want Shenault. And I see he's apparently the only guy out GM has gone to visit/watch 4 times on his own.

Obviously Soooo.... since recency matters... is he getting better or worse with that number? Not a fact. Completely subjective statement. Define this, please. Sure What does this even mean? I watched Carson Wentz and Tom Brady miss badly on wide open check downs and screens this year. Again, very subjective unless you compare him across the board. Plus, is he doing it more or less lately? 1) Most young QBs do 2) Most young QBs do 3) Agreed, but again, is this something he's gotten better or worse at recently? I swear to God if Allen has a 65% completion percentage next year some vapid poster trying to manipulate a narrative is going to come here and argue something like "well, he has a career completion percentage of less than 60%!" just for the sake of trolling.

Total and utter crap bro. Go look into the storylines of these guys all the way back to High School. I'll start you on the path: multi sport athlete at a small town rural High School who didn't attend those QB camps like the Manning passing academy as many of these top prospects did and a wildly late bloomer, which seriously and negatively impacted his recruitment to colleges causing him to... well... I challenge you to objectively go back and research his story and come back to me other QBs like Lamar Jackson who was a 4 star recruit as a QB coming out of a High School that played nationally ranked teams and played in one of the 3 best conferences in the NCAA under one of the best coaches or Ryan Tannehill who was a 3 star recruit at QB coming out of High school and then played QB for a couple years (after playing WR) at one of the college football powerhouses. I know I'm a homer, but it's pretty rare to find a story like Allen's. Look it up. He is your Quarterback, afterall...
