Of course you're not, heretic

I don't think Allen has had a maximally efficient game yet, something like what Fitz is doing now, getting the most out of his talent and his chances. He's gone from firing on 1-2 cylinders as a rookie and showing those flashes, to 3-4 cylinders last year to 5-6 cylinders these first 2 weeks (out of 8 - a real engine). He's still getting in tune. The points on the scoreboard don't always match up to the eye test/stat line of the QB performance. Both of those 2020 games really should have been put well in hand by halftime. That said, I've been waiting for the next 2019 Week 4 level clunker, and it hasn't come yet. And even that was a game that could have been won. Remarked in the Fins-Jags thread that with Minshew it never felt like he could drag his team back into the game. Allen is the exact opposite of that, he can gack series for a quarter or two but he's liable to go off for 2 or 3 quick strike drives at any point when the rhythm and play calling gets in sync.

Thanks. Nate Pyrite's predictions are so seldom correct, I was hoping it was something like that.

I thought it was the Seahawks who dominate at garbage time.

Only if you watched the game. The stat line is so much better than his performance - watching it I never felt like he would get his team back into it.

"4-4-4... c'mon Devante" Parker goes in motion

He was worth every bit of the draft capital they expended on him

I can see why Conley dropped off the Jags top 3 WR depth. Dropped, I say. Edit: "Brady polished his helmet" does the FCC know about this ad?

Where do all these friggin punters come from, where the Bills can't get one?

Are they running option with a senior citizen? Do they want Tua in there that bad?

"The Bills haven't played anyone yet"

Thanks for the PI you touchdown thief Jag

I played Cole tonight at WR with Parker since I needed to make the decision today. I still have the option of dropping Thielen into my flex spot over Jarick McKinnon but I like that play with the SF situation with Mostert likely out. It's weird hearing the name Josh Allen getting called out in this game.

Minshew missed a chunk on that 3rd down as well, had second level behind Shenault coming wide open.

Throw it to Parker, he's my WR2

Taking a flyer with Chark out, and starting Keelan Cole over Adam Thielen.

Whoa, you really hornswoggled me, you sprightly swervedriver!

Be sure to stay tuned for Ask Dr Zhivago

Now having watched it... on those highlights, Darryl Williams just dominated, abused and otherwise beat the living hell out of Ogbah.

The first 10 seconds freaked me out. "Wait, they're gonna talk about Josh Allen for an hour with... Josh Allen?" Dude's a ringer.

Pressure me? Nonononono, I pressure YOU

Or you could just dip your wings at the foot of Sheridan Drive 🤢

And here I thought he just scripted his first 21 plays for 7 3-and-outs.

I mostly resemble that remark. After the draft I understood that this was a guy with more physical tools than 99% of QBs that have played in the league. The ultimate highest-ceiling but lowest-floor type pick. I saw the wow plays in the first season where he'd flash but it was usually with the legs. I think the epiphany was the first preseason game in 2019 (Colts?) where he just drove the field with ease for first a FG and then a TD where I'm thinking, hey, this guy looks like an NFL QB running an NFL offense and making NFL throws, i.e., the kind that have spent this century beating up on the Bills, not playing for them. The thing is, this is a guy who, as was alluded to earlier in the thread, got a late start at the position and is just making the jump now that Burrow did last year (and is only 8 months older, after all). There's still a whole lot of room between where Allen is right now, and his ceiling as a player. We shall see. If he stops developing where he's at, the team can be a perennial contender. If makes it even halfway from this point to his full potential I don't see how the team fails to win a Championship with him. If he maxes out...?

The rollout over to Diggs wasn't a window, that was a porthole. My bigger takeaway is that while this guy generally likes Allen, he LOVES Daboll.
