    When Josh Allen is inaccurate, the ball being slightly high in the beasley INT for example.. 

     

    Does anyone know if its a consistent technical issue? Footwork? Rushing the throw? 

     

    Collinsworth was saying he rushed the mechanics on that one

     

    Collingsworth also said his base was too wide causing him to release the ball on a more upward trajectory than needed.

    @ Mia - Win

    DEN - Win

    @ Dal - Win

    BAL - Loss

    @ Pit - Loss

    @ NE - Loss

    NYJ - Loss

     

    3 straight wins to get to 9-3, including an upset win over the Cowboys on Thanksgiving will have us all feeling great over the holiday weekend..........

    3 straight losses will have us all in a panic and setup a must win final weekend in Buffalo vs. the Jets to get into the playoffs.

     

    McDermott and Josh Allen put up a stinker and lose in heartbreaking fashion, and miss the playoffs, setting up an offseason fueled with discussion over whether this coach and QB combo are the answer.

     

    You forgot Daboll in that stinker ...

    At Miami LOSS 16-21 No offensive click the defense falls apart at the end as we lead most of the game until the end 

    Denver LOSS 13-10 Again we need to score frustration in the team , defense plays better but it is not enough 

    At Cowboys WIN expecting a loss A Big win ! An unexpected win 14-9 

    Ravens  LOSS We get blow away 43-7 Ravens are very very good 

    At Steelers LOSS Again very close 9 -13 Much improved defense from last week  and offense just not  able to score  

    At Patriots LOSS but it should have been a win the referees screws us on purpose and give a free win to the Cheetriots 17-22 

    NY Jets WIN a meaningless win , highest scoring game of the season but too late ! We blow away the NY Jets 45-10 

    Very disappointing 8-8 season 

     

     

    I'm also wary of Miami as they aren't playing like a tank team anymore. They will still get either Tua, Burrow, or Herbert as most of the bottom feeders don't need

    QBs. Fitz can step it up as well.

    TBD NFL experts; hell yesterday we had someone post we should be listening to academics and statistics!!

    The Patriots are the greatest franchise in the history of professional sports - scouting, drafting, FA signings, coaching, QB, and most important (BILLS FANS), a winning culture - they expect and play to win. So TBD experts, think about that when you scream "fire everybody" when the Bills throw an incomplete pass or the "process timeline" does not meet your expectations!!

     

    Since 2000 no doubt ... all time, I'd look at the Yankees and Montreal Canadiens.

    What ppl need to understand is that Josh Allen is not just a quarterback

     

    He is an athlete

    He is highly competative

    He is a gamer

    He is passionate

     

    I really feel like this is one of the reasons we traded up....twice......and took Josh with a 7th overall pick despite he was so raw......he genuinely loves the game and is wired for it....you can just tell

     

    This is the best QB we have had under center since Jim Kelly.......and it really has been Jim Kelly/Josh Allen >>>>>>>>>>>>>everyone else

     

    Love your optimism John - can't wait for next season with some upgraded weapons.

    Allen is the same guy now as he was at Wyoming. Read a scouting report. It's all the stuff you see him do on a weekly basis. 

     

    Guys like Allen never work out. So far he's done zero to change my opinion. He's the worst passer in the league in most categories and many of you are convinced he's the guy. I simply don't get it. He's a good athlete and he tries hard, but he leaves way too much to be desired as a passer. 

     

    If the team produces points and wins games I'll be happy, but we're not doing that. 

     

    Allen would be 6-4 as a starter had Clay not dropped the pass in Miami or Peterman screwed up the Houston game. Not too shabby for the toolbox he was handed.

  6. RIP ... 

     

    Damn, it's been a long run at the Harp. Don't live in Boston anymore, but I was part of a crew in the late 80s that used to get together for the games upstairs at the Fours 

    on Canal (before the Bills Backers). IIRC, the group moved over to the Bell in Hand and then over to the Harp. 

     

    Always thought it strange to have a Bills club across the street at the time from the Boston Garden.

    Well, passing was the topic of discussion.

     

    It seemed to be generally acknowledged that a QB that is seen as more of a threat with his legs than his arm (eg Taylor) is not the franchise QB of our Sweet Bills Dreams.  Allen is a Great Ball of Fire and fun to watch the way he scrambles, but he needs to develop more as a passing threat to become That Guy.

     

    Give him a cadre of good receivers and we'll see. I don't think Allen will sit around all off-season and do nothing a la Manziel. I think he'll be watching tape, working out and trying to improve his passing, maybe with Jordan Palmer again.
