Earlier in the year, Mahomes threw at 57% for 260yrds with 1TD and 1 INT in a 20-17 loss against a far worse Colts team.
Quit making crap up to add to your already annoying crusade.
Though the following week he threw three touchdowns against the Bucs. Josh looked very shaky in the fourth quarter against the Packers and compounded it at the Jets with very similar issues.I wouldn’t swap Josh for Mahomes, as good as the latter is, but these games crop up more often for him than Mahomes in general.
And I really hope I have just jinxed Mahomes for tonight.

This is why so many say Mahomes is better. When Allen is bad he's really bad. Mahomes doesn't do this on an annual basis...
Josh and Mahomes have similar ceilings but the latter’s floor is much higher. I thought Josh had closed the difference in terms of the floor but he hasn’t.-

Man… I have confidence he’s going to get back to his elite ways but these last six quarters have been some of the worst QB’ing I’ve seen .. never mind from an elite QB.
If it was Tua we’d be saying he’s reverting to type. If it was Mac Jones we’d be laughing our heads off. If it was Wilson we’d be stating it was no surprise. But as it’s Josh… -

I think Allen has got to a point where things have been so easy for him for so long that he kind of has brought this on himself. He doesn't make adjustments when the OLine isn't doing as well, he still wants to push the ball downfield and thinks he can just run around and make up for it.
The oddest thing is he had appeared to get out of that - Rams, Titans, Chiefs, Ravens… take what’s given, dink and dunk, maintain possession. Then, in the fourth quarter of the Packers and today he seems to have regressed into being locked into one read and making big plays.-

But when you’re in a nickel defence against heavy sets all game when you know the other team wants to run the ball ? Not a good look IMO
The issue was we seemed to have no passing plan against Garrett Wilson. So if we pushed them to pass, they’d find it too easy to execute in the back field. I do think our plans would have been different had we not been missing Milano and Poyer. -

The season the NY Giants won the SB with Phil Simms at QB in 1986. They went up to Seattle and lost 12-17 with both teams 5-2 at that time....Simms sacked 7x and threw 4 INTs.
Stuff happens and it's why they say on "any given Sunday".
As said elsewhere, the Bucs faced the Saints at home and got turned over 38-3 in 2020. One game doesn’t make a season. The worrying thing is the trends on both sides of the ball carried over from the back end of the Packers game into this one. I have some sympathy for the defense considering who was missing; none for the offense.2 minutes ago, BillsFan130 said:That’s a fair point on the offensive side.
I still don’t like the defensive game plan at all though in terms of being passive
On defense some of it was passivity but, like against the Packers, some of it was execution. How many tackles did we miss today? -

Good grief. Can’t fix stupid
What a lovely intelligent reply.Tell me, where has anyone said we should score 50 every game?

Josh was the issue, not Bass.

I guess we will agree to disagree.
When I’m the heavy favourite, I want as many possessions as possible and I want to challenge them into a shoot out, not a ground and pound time of possession game
But if Josh is off, as he was, then adapt. The only way we were going to win was pound and ground; don’t be too proud or egotistical to take it. -

The entire team absolutely sucked today but you punt that ball inside their 10, you absolutely do not let them score on that drive. Jesus Christ we should have had the ball back at midfield. Not only did we not, they ran the clock out and scored. That’s inexcusable. The offense was terrible but it was Zach Wilson. Get a ***** stop. 20 points to that offense isn’t good. Get up and make a stop with the game on the line
13 in reality. Not sure I really blame the defense for the touch down after the second INT. -
Just now, henry jones said:
Again…I never said Josh is blameless. He sucked as well as the game plan. The defense hasn’t been helping. Can’t score 50 every week
We didn’t need to score 50. Twenty one would have been enough.-

The offence let them down sir, we are in agreement there.
The bills shouldn’t be playing a time of possession game against the Jets though..
Thats what underdogs want, not 11 point favourites
But that works both ways. If the offense dinked, dunked and burned the clock then we’re on control. It feels like we’ve abandoned that approach since the bye.-

The Bills D got one takeaway , way below the Jets usual performance on Offense.
And conceded 20 points, seven of those where the offense - well, Josh - basically handed them field position on a plate. -
Just now, BillsFan130 said:
The offence sucked today, that’s besides the point.
“Got the ball back” was also after a 9 minute drive, so that ties in with what im saying
Therefore the offense needed to do the same. What was the score at the point? 17-10? Burn the clock, dink and dunk, keep the defense off the field and getting a proper break. I think the final drive by the Jets was because the defense was gassed.
We were down Hyde, Milano, Poyer, White and, for much of the second half, Rousseau. The almost fully fit offense needed to help them out.

I hate the “they only gave up” argument.
Ok they let up 20 points.
three, 8 minute drives.
So of course that will limit the Jets scoring cause you’re content on letting them gash you with clock, but also you’re limiting the offences chances.
I would rather them play more aggressive and give up 24 points without those killer 7-8 minute drives against them
The offense’s chances? The defense got the ball back and we promptly returned it to the Jets. -
I’m more worried about what Josh is seeing and how he’s processing plays than his arm at the moment.

That's a bold statement for the team who is the number 1 seed in the AFC with the MVP favorite at QB. They had a bad game, they weren't going to go 16-1 this season.
If I was an opposition fan, the only concern I’d have is if Josh gets his act together. Until then, bring us on. -

Someting has changed in the last two games. Milano's absence may have been partially responsible today.
Last week I assumed we were a bit surprised at the Packers approach and decided to let them get on with it. The biggest concern is how many tackles we’re missing.-

And have a defense that can routinely get the ball back. Josh is trying to make big plays because he knows his defense isn’t stopping anyone.
Then surely you spend as much time on the field of play as possible to burn the clock in a close game and not allow the Jets O back on the field? -
Despite my previous sarcastic comment, the defense was not the problem tonight. It was the offense. Mainly the QB.

Even McD in his presser said we need to look at our run defense.
Well that’s nice. Then again, guess it’s never been exposed before… -
Just now, thenorthremembers said:
Hate to say it but with teams going to two high shell and playing man coverage you either need to start taking advantage of the middle of the field or Josh needs to drop back and then run straight up the field.
Against that type of defense Dawson Knox should be eating right now, but is somehow non existent.
He’s not being used. More than once he was free and looking for the ball tonight, but Josh didn’t throw to him. -

There is no doubt the Bills got out coached. They had no answers to stop their run attack. It was pitiful when the Bills had them pinned at the 4 yard line in the 4th quarter. Run, run, run, and more runs with no answer. That just can't happen! What adjustments did they make? No way this team makes a super Bowl appearance playing like that. The division is a log jam. I don't think teams fear the Bills. Adjustments needs to be made. I'm not a great xs and os guy. Maybe someone here can give some good insight. Right now, this is a crappy Sunday.
The defense was shattered at that point. They needed the O to get points on the board, give them a cushion, spend time on the field to help them recover. Not keep being put out there because of boneheaded idiocy. -
Only one dud - Josh. Don’t throw simple picks, take what the defense gave him, and we would have won.

Josh Allen's waning confidence and mental yips
in The Stadium Wall

The post season is out of the question if he continues to play the way he did today.
