14-10 bills Allen throws a td late for his first comeback win Most fans miss it from taking a nap

Already have plenty of pro and con Allen threads. Please dont make this into an other one. My question is what do this year to help him develop with what they have to work with? What offense can you run with what we currently have that gives a rookie qb a fighting chance to be even modestly successful. The Vikings game we had short field right away several times and Allen made some plays as an athlete not a qb. Do we go heavy personnel and run heavy? Not as concerned about winning football games (were not a playoff contender) as keeping games out of chuck and duck garage time by the second quarter. Obviously having him drop back deep and try and throw downfield with this wr core is a ridiculous proposition Yet were doing it over and over instead of getting the ball out quick

Pretty much what I expected besides the running game being basically non existent

Dawkins is fine Mills has always been horrible. Rest might play better with a few more games playing together. Allen needs quicker throws and the receivers need to be able to create some separation right away

he seems to be accurate when he steps into throws and isnt running for his life Coaching staff had no answer once the game script started to get away from them They panicked early and abandoned the run game. Josh hurt them with the pick at the end of the 1st half Little bit too much hero ball. The most concerning thing he does which I hope they will fix with better protection and him learning trusting his line more will fix is fleeing the pocket to his right needlessly often right into pressure. That game was more frustrating for me from the standpoint of how quick their playcalling turned to throw/throw/throw. Also stop with the play action bombs on 1st down or give him a 2nd option I have yet to see Foster or anyone else get over the safety by more than half a step That is a incredibly low % offense to run

biggest issue I see is when teams bring delayed pressure , instead of picking up the free runner out guards have a tendency to needlessly double a guy who is under control thus opening up lanes for Allen to get smashed. Allen not helping by some indecision (again out wr core sucks so hard to know if a passing lane is there) and also he's leaving a clean pocket too often mostly to flee to his right He's gotta trust the protection and thus far its not happening Run the football and have the vet center call out the protection till Allen is ready too the problems pre snap

the blowouts are when the game script doesnt go the Bills way which is get turnovers and have success running the football. It amazes me that they hid Tyrod's deficiencies by sticking with the run game but trot out a rookie qb with the nfl's worst receiving core (by far) and try to be not only a passing team but execute deep concepts behind a garbage OL. Its like they decided lets find the worst offense to run when you have a bad line and slow receivers with no hands. You'd have to try really hard to run worse scheme and particularly some of the playcalls. You have zero speed yet they love to try low % deep passes when Foster not only can seperate but when he's open he continues to drop or not fight for the football. I didn't enjoy the boring Marrone coached games but he knew what he had and how to try and get wins with it.

shocker

not outraged Disappointed Allen didn't even have a shot this week On to week 5 and hopefully some progress for Allen

WR, I think some of the protection issues can be fixed O line not communicating well and a rookie qb who is making mistakes in seeing protection problems pre snap You cant fix no hands and lack of separation

Growing pains, got to grow calluses to deal with it. Defense played all the way through Edmunds made some plays Lewis was good till that late completion downfield O line seems to very confused Seems they are unaware of who is coming Maybe Allen at fault for not pointing out protection

They got a week to figure out how to generate a running game.

well boys see you next week for a hopefully more watchable game

no surprise but the total meltdown on offense is a little bit

defense is not the problem Offense is a hot mess I dont think we can manufacture enough offense from this group consistently to win games. Best case scenario , Allen plays out the year and learns without getting a long term injury

were getting blown out but that call is ridiculous

you have that much time and throw the ball 30 yards downfield and your WR is still blanketed its time to find some wrs This is beyond ridiculous This kid wants to succeed and we surrounded him with a dumpster fire

o line is just plain garbage

defense waking up

KB done

no separation anywhere

need 4 yards and all the receivers running 20 yard routes Who designs this garbage

memo to Brandon Beane You gutted your roster to be able to draft Josh Allen. Invest in some targets

KB gator armed it and still got levelled For a 245 lb wr he sure plays small
