You don't get tested if you don't have symptoms and are vaccinated, so even if they do get it, the league won't know about it unless they get symptoms, and being asymptomatic with Omicron is really common for those who are vaccinated. So even though it is likely spreading like fire, it's going to affect playing time largely for those players who are not vaccinated because they are tested all the time, and I would guess that they are more likely to exhibit symptoms.

Exactly. QB's get hit in the pocket and injured in the pocket all the time. Allen has gotten injured in the pocket. Pick your poison. You might as well get some amazing plays that help your team, because the risk is there no matter what.

You pull out all the stops in the playoffs, and these last couple of weeks are like playoff games because we needed them to make the playoffs and win the division. Josh is a running QB. It's what he does. And he is amazing at it. You and everyone else need to get used to it. He is not Brady. He is not Rodgers. Let Allen play his game.
-
Maybe you are thinking of somebody else. I think it is one of his worst performances, but I don't recall saying it definately was his single worst performance ever.
-
I think Diggs should have caught it. The game analyst on the broadcast explained perfectly why Allen shouldn't have taken something off it and why Diggs should have caught it.
-
Add up his rushing and passing. He still turned the ball over more than he scored. If it was all through the air we would still be saying that he had a relatively poor game for his normal standard of play. It's not the end of the world. Even the best QB's have bad games sometimes.
-
Allen needs MORE bad weather games. He is going to have to learn to deal with them. He isn't going to just be lucky and never play another bad weather game in January. He needs to get to the point that it is a strength rather than a weakness.
-
No, that ball should have been caught. Allen needs to zip those ones in there. It was a specific window and timing that he needs to hit on that throw and he hit it perfectly. Diggs just wasn't ready for it. On some of the other throws, I agree. There was a check down to Singletary that he threw way too hard. He was getting some pressure. On that one, throwing to a running back in space just a few yards away, he needed to take some off of that.
-
That's all fine and dandy, but this WAS one of Allen's worst games. That's fine, because we still got the win. Even in one of his worst games he was able to overcome it and still make some plays. A rating of 61 is ridiculous, though. Aaron Rodgers is at 67 for the season. 50 is supposed to be average. The dude threw three interceptions and had less than 50% completion percentage. QBR highly overrates rushing stats.
-
ESPN thinks he did well. His QBR is 61.5 for this game, further illustrating how useless QBR is. Allen did some nice things on the ground, but he'll be the first to tell you that this was one of his poorest games. But he still did enough to win and has lots to learn from and work on for the next poor weather game.

When was the last time a team hasn’t punted in 2 straight games?

Ok. Technically I'm celebrating this momentous feat. But only technically. -
Don't overreact to individual performances or especially individual plays. It's never as bad or as good as it seems. This game had poor weather conditions and multiple dropped balls by receivers (including another dropped TD). Two of Josh's INTs were tipped passes. Josh just needs to play in some more of these bad weather games to get a better feel for what he can and can't do. There's a real adjustment that needs to be made for these games. Receivers have cold hands and the ball is harder, so catching his bullet passes is a lot more difficult, receivers are slower out of their breaks because of poor footing, etc.

We aren't counting free kicks? Seems convenient. -
Good teams don't need signature wins anymore. Signature wins are for those teams that have yet to prove themselves and are on the path to doing so. That was the 2019 and early 2020 Bills.

Can we finally put the need for a dome stadium to rest?
MJS replied to Bubba Gump's topic in The Stadium Wall
Josh Allen has proved to be a bit shaky in bad weather games. What does that tell me? He needs to keep playing in them until he is no longer shaky. Get more and more experience in the rain, snow, and wind and he will figure out what he can and can't do. It's a certainty that he will have to play in bad weather playoff games in the years going forward. Better for him to work through it than just hope to play in a dome. -
So winning playoff games at home doesn't count? You think he needs to win a ROAD playoff game to prove he is a good coach? Just stupid how the goal posts keep moving. McDermott is a great coach and has built a perennially contending team. He got the team to the AFC Championship game last year. He has a really good win-loss record. He is widely respected around the entire league. He coaches a team with both a good offense and a good defense. People need to just appreciate what he has done and stop waiting for him to fail. Get over your Bills insecurities and realize what a special era this is for Bills football. Stop trying to undercut the man that brought this all to you. McDermott built all of this. Yes, he had help along the way, but this is his team, his culture, and everything goes through him.
-
Penalty? Ok. But a fine for that? That's surprising.
-
Absolutely. It's just because of how it ended with him, but the majority of his time here he was an elite pass rusher.
-
Oh yeah, that would be great. I'll take 8-10 sacks in a heartbeat.
