This morning, I came across this article from NBC Sports Boston. I was trying to find news on Josh Allen and saw a headline about a a “blueprint” to beat Josh Allen.
It’s clear that the author of this article hasn’t watch any Bills games, outside of the highlights on ESPN.
He says the Patriots need to keep Josh Allen in the pocket because he’s among one of the lowest ranked among passers.
What he fails to mention is that this was the same strategy employed by former Patriots DC Matt Patricia last week. It didn’t really work and Allen was steady and competent, though not great, when passing from the pocket.
This is a common problem I have seen as a Bills fan - most people outside of Buffalo really don’t have a good grasp of what’s going on. They read stats/ or watch highlights but have zero context.
