    Leverage is how we choose the pattern on an option route. Eli Apple had inside leverage. Gabe should have went to the boundary (which he originally did). That’s why the defender had open hips. Then he decided to stop and fight through the leverage, back toward the defender.

     

     

    It was not a sick move. Gabe was not open due to his route running. He only looked open because the defender stopped following him when Allen threw the ball to where he was supposed to.

     

    Defender looks at Allen, then stops to catch the ball that Davis abandoned. Gabe is only “open” because the defender stops to catch the INT.

    Not only does it not make sense what Gabe did based on leverage, but also based on the defense. He knew Allen was only going to have a second or two to release the ball. So he ignores his leverage and runs back through it, taking more time than Allen had.

    When you see the all22, what you think of this play? The first interception.

    That's where I netted out. 

     

    *  The strip sack fumble would have been a fumble for almost every QB in the league given how fast that DT got in on Allen.

     

    *  The 1st INT may be filed under "nobody's fault" as it was a case of the WR zigging when the QB thought he would zag.  And had the refs thrown the flag on the previous plays clear PI then that first INT never happens.

     

    *  The 2nd INT didn't take points off the board nor did it hand the Finns good field position.  Allen made a choice clearly to go away from his first read and then rather then take a sack on 4th down (something I've seen a lot of QB's do) he threw up a 50/50 ball to the end zone.

     

    Missing Diggs was the really bad mistake Allen made that was all on him.

     

    I think Davis lost sight cause defender all over him.  Allen throw the ball when Davis possibly not looking or Apple was all over him, lost tracked.. Might be just a great play by defender.

    Bahahaha I feel you, the stupidity of some of the comments on Allen by "fans" is from a contingent that doesn't seem to know much about football.  

     

    I do really think Gabe made the mistake, even his break wasn't crisp or urgent, almost like he didn't know where to go.  Allen clearly expected him to turn around and sit on the route or comeback.  Easy TD if Gabe does and I would have won $1280 on my props parlay, so real pissed at Davis.  

     

    But the most telling thing for me, and I believe @Einsteinposted it as its own thread, is that nearly 40% of Allens INT's the past 2 seasons are on throws to Davis.  There is something definitely not quite right in their communication, and given it happens at a much much higher clip with Davis than any other one individual, its hard not to think its more Davis than Allen.

     

    And Allen threw that before Davis made the break...again.  So clearly Allen felt he was gonna do something different again.  So I am kind of hoping we get to see the offense this next week without Davis as it was a night and day difference yesterday when he left the game.  

     

    If paused at 24 seconds looks like Allen throw and the defender all over Gabe. Not sure if Davis saw Allen throwing the ball. I'm not sure if Davis saw the ball coming possibly? 

     

    Could be on neither people. Defender hate to say it Apple made a great play.

    Has peeps in the game thread ready to trade Allen for Tua. LMFO

     

    Some of the Bills "fans" are before the drought so I try to give them a break. Way, way to many toll idiots that don't understand QB play though.

     

    That's unreal if some said that. Always love Allen.  Wouldn't trade him for anything.

    Absolutely. Total props to the defense. Especially in the second half where they gave up zero points.

     

    And without Rasul Douglas!

     

    Defense played great second half. They were great.

     

    I might criticize Allen on his mistakes but I love him on this team. He was amazing later in the game.
