    I understand the weights part.  It's like being a pitcher, bulky muscles are not the goal and actually are more of a hinderance.  I believe he does work on his base.

     

    The film issue is concerning.  Most of the greats live it and love the grind.

     

    Maybe he does base work. In that case, I don't think he does himself any favors with how he describes his offseason routine. I'm watching Mahomes in QB on Netflix put his body in crazy training situations to help his muscles perform better on off-platform throws and seeing guys like Peyton stressing how crazy their film viewing habits are and then I'm listening to Josh basically state he uses his offseasons to live like the Dude from the Big Lebowski.

    At some point some fans will need to actually come to terms with Allen simply playing poorly.

     

    Making bad choices where to go with the ball, staring down receivers and throwing INTs, dirting easy passes, and air mailing passes out of bounds or overthrowing receivers that are wide open down field.

     

    It's not all Allen and Dorsey can do a better job with some situational calls and personnel packages and some players have to execute better.

     

    However when players are schemed open and Allen just can't hit those passes that is not on your OC or the plays called 

     

    At some point you should read what was written and realize I am blaming both the playcaller and the player. Running the ball and the threat of running is a major weapon for Josh, that has been schemed out of the playbook and he has been admonished over and over to stop freelancing and he chose to listen to that stupid bit of advice. He has poor judgment as it is but now we've removed half of his ability to create wow plays to make up for the boneheaded ints he throws. 

  3. The defense is dead. You couldn't have picked 3 worse season-ending injuries for our system. Teams will run the ball at will against us and then switch it up with sweeps to the edges because we are trying so hard to overcompensate for the gaping hole in the middle of the D. I dunno how or why but despite all the metrics of him being more efficient I just don't see Josh being clutch anymore. The offense is lost and uninspired and the defense just has no shot. This is a 8-9 win team maybe. 

     

    This team looks completely unprepared and that is 100% on coaching.

    This narrative keeps being repeated  but it is simply not even close to true that Allen's turnovers was  because the Bills were behind.  This is not only the case for this season's Jets game but in general.

     

    Out of Allen's 19 2022 regular season turnovers, 12 of them were with the Bill's leading and 4 were with the Bills tied .  All Allen's turnovers when tied occurred in the first half of the games.

     

    Only three of Allen's 2022 turnovers occurred with the Bills trailing:

     

    (1) An interception down 0-7 in the first half against Chicago.

    (2) A fumble on first down trailing 21-26 at midfield at the beginning of the 4th quarter in the 2nd game against the Dolphins.   Plenty of time left to make up 5 points and in fact the Bills eventually win this game.

    (3) An interception ending OT down 3 against the Vikings -- this is the only one that meets the criteria for a do or die situation.

     

    When McDermott keeps saying Allen has to play smarter, it isn't only about sliding at the end of runs.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    It appears I am wrong. Thanks for the info!

    Why when Josh was behind in the Jets game he drove it down with little time left to get in position for the FG to tie the game and send it to OT. Started off behind the Raiders and then raced past them.

     

    IMO most of his poor decisions are made when he's trying so hard to make a play because we're behind. We never should have been in the position to have to get a FG to tie the Jets game, he lost us that game and it shouldn't have even been close. There a dumb thing that happens on this board (not talking about you specifically) but I think we should be able to express concerns or doubts about our players without being accused of not being a fan. I'm not saying he sucks, I think he's great - I just worry about his decision-making mainly because I thought he was getting past this shaky part of his game and it's still rearing it's head.
