I’m talking about the playoff numbers he has and less about the record, but I totally agree some players have taken a few go around before finding their playoff success.
I think Lamar is an amazing athlete and an excellent QB, I’m just waiting for him to put it together in the playoffs to put him in Mahomes/Allen stratosphere.
Agree with this 100%. I do think him being a 2 time MVP this early is a little crazy but this was a flawed year.
but if people think Allen gets criticized, they should look at Lamar. Heisman trophy winner who some thought should switch poo. If they flame out this year, he will get absolutely crushed.

I don’t think any reasonable person disagrees with that.

This is typical of the passive aggressive stuff that is thrown at Allen all the time. IMO it's weak as hell:
* "our highest paid player". I love this one. I guess because the Bills are paying a lot of money to their elite franchise QB he should get more criticism. What I see from a contract standpoint is that Allen is underpaid relatve to his production and the teams results on the field. I believe that Murry, Herbert & Watson all make more money then Allen.
* "Allen himself will say he played really bad". One of the great things about Allen is he takes responsibility and never throws a team mate or coach under the bus. I love that he's hard on himself. What I wonder is why some fans insist on being as hard on Allen as he is. It makes me think they never lived through the purgatory years where bad QBing was the norm for 20 years.
I don’t think you know what passive aggressive means. Everything I said was a fact. QBs get way too much credit and blame for everything. It’s the job. Of course him getting paid a lot makes a huge difference. You give rookie Josh passes on things that this Josh doesn’t get.
and Allen is a great leader. But he also knows he makes some poor decisions. This offense has been very inconsistent and it has cost us games. I think we can beat any team in the league. We also lose to any as well. Inconsistent offense and turnovers would be a major reason why. And this is why it will fall in Allen since he is the leader of the team.
we fired the DC of the Bills after multiple top 5 seasons. People wanted McDermott gone. Idiots are talking about firing the Eagles head coach. When you have expectations, the standard gets raised. Every bills fan knows how lucky we are to have Allen. But to achieve this team’s full potential, we need to cut down on the negative stuff.
i don’t know why you make this such a personal thing.

That’s incredible,
See, this drives me crazy. If we had better, consistent offense, we don’t need to rally against terrible teams like the Jets, Pats, Chargers, and Broncos,l. Our depleted defense kept us in those games. They didn’t need to be close.

Dude, he had over 400 yards of offense and 79% completion rating and was responsible for most of those yards. Dude made some key throws and kept our offense on the field all game long. He did this while being under pressure most of the game. Miami blitzed at like a 40% rate and got home quite a bit. Not just with one guy but multiple guys. This might have been the worst game this oline has played. Our running game wasn't doing ***** either if it wasn't Allen. The dude made some incredible throws in all that pressure.
We scored 14 points without their 3 best pass rushers. This is after lack luster efforts against the Chargers and Pats.
allen is amazing. But let’s stop pretending like this is some well oil machine and the turnovers aren’t hurting us.

A lot of good qbs suck early in the playoffs. Elway didn’t win a SB until he was like 38. But Lamar has a ton of pressure on him this playoffs. It’s still a regular season award.
59 minutes ago, DCOrange said:Difference in scoring with and without Lamar by year:
2019: -5.5 points per game without him
2020: -16.3 PPG
2021: -15.3 PPG
2022: -12.5 PPG
2023: -19.6 PPG
Should note 2019, 2020, and 2023 were only one game without Lamar, but there's obviously still a major difference in 2021/2022 where he missed 10 games entirely and played a handful of snaps in 2 others.
People who say a backup could do as good as Lamar are flat out liars.

Dude is a weirdo but I would love to have him. I actually think Allen and him have a healthy respect for each other.

As I said earlier he was phenomenal on the second half. All Bills fans love Josh but when he makes a mistake he is open to critique like any other player.
Thats the part that’s really weird to me. Fans would rather trash the rest of the team and make up how bad the supporting cast is then ever criticize our highest paid player.
Allen himself will say he played really bad in the first half and hurt the team. Not sure why so fans can’t say the same.

This thread is such a microcosm of our society. It’s either all or nothing. If you are critical of something, you must hate them. If you are too positive, you are biased.
allen is better than I could have ever imagined in my wildest dreams. I hate prospects like him - all the “tools,” not great production. Those guys fail 99% of the time. Allen has become a top 3 qb and it’s absolutely amazing. We are beyond fortunate to have him.
that said, he is getting paid a ton of money so you are allowed to be critical. That was a depleted Miami team playing without 2 of their best pass rushers and lost another good one during the game. We scored 14 points on offense and Allen’s turnovers were a big reason why. If it was a one time thing, you let it go. But it’s been a pattern.
Allen makes some of the most spectacular plays I have ever seen. And ints are going to happen because he takes chances. But some of you are kind delusional about how they hurt these team. We have lost or barely beaten bad teams because of our offense and the mistakes we have made.
I am beyond happy to have Allen and to win another division. This is the best period of bills football since I was a little kid. This team can legitimately win the SB. But if also can lose to Pittsburgh (doubtful but still) if they keep beating themselves.

Hey I'm a fan... there is no logic... chill a bit, we're here for fun.
Haha, I know. I hate watching this and want the bills to be in playoffs and no stress tomorrow.
I guess they could have played him a drive. But it’s a no win situation for them.

I mean, he looked pretty rough the last few years. I’m not surprised he’s playing well, the Browns are stacked and Stefanski is a good coach. But if he had been ineffective, I don’t think anyone would have been surprised
Also this suggestions some major regression is coming: https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/player-stat/interception-percentage
flacco has a 4% int ratio, which is the worst by far of any starter. But the Browns defense is so good, it hasn’t matter. It’s a great story though

Man, we just need the game to start haha.

Hopefully someone takes him before our pick and takes the temptation away from McDermott and Beane. I remember feeling anxious as Christian Gonzalez slid last year and let out a sigh of relief when the Pats took him. It forced us to make a pick that clearly helped the team more now and in the future.
A white d back is probably like a super model to McDermott. He should know how good he is at coaching the position that he doesn’t need to waste high picks on them.

I am surprised nobody is talking about the biggest game of the weekend Jets at Pats.
All jokes aside, I think the Pats winning might be the safest bet of the week.

I could be in the pro bowl qb'ing Frisco if the league played me like Dallas does vs how Baltimore did. Then we gotta look at Dan Quinn all day. It's a joke.
I wish we could see you attempt this.
I would absolutely watch “regular” fans put up money (to earn money) and play in real games. It would be amazing (and you need to sign a health waiver).

If stroud doesn’t get hurt, the Texans are easily in the playoffs and extremely dangerous. They are the better team. So since the nfl makes no sense this year, I’m betting the Colts.

How in the world do you use this stat without knowing play calls? Or what defense the other team is playing?
and this is a wild thought, but maybe the thought of Lamar running and play action, helps their WRs get open? Nah, it’s probably the superior skills of washed up ACL ODB, always injured Bateman, and can’t catch Nelson. They have one good receiver who may one day be as good as Diggs. Maybe.
I love stats but a lot nerds who never played and have no idea what is actually going on just make up things. Guess how receivers get open easier? String running threat, motion, and play action.

There were a lot of bad takes early in this thread.
I can’t believe more people didn’t think Flacco, who had one winning record in a season and a td/ int of 80/45 since Turing 30 (not counting this year), wasn’t a great signing!!!!
to pretend like this should be expected is absolutely crazy. It shows the: the Browns’ coaches have been amazing this year; they have a special defense; and they have had a favorable schedule.
and for the record, I still think Matt Ryan is better than him!

I get the Eli comp bc of the two Super Bowls, although Eli threw for a lot more TDs and Yards in his career. After looking at the stats, maybe it’s not THAT crazy to at least have the conversation, but I think the better comps for Flacco from a straight passing stats perspective are guys like McNabb and Bledsoe. Granted those guys did not win SBs, but I would still put Flacco at a level below Eli because of the aforementioned stats.We are deluding the hall of fame. It is for great not good. Has anyone ever considered Flacco a top 10 qb any season of his career (maybe this year haha)? Or Eli? Lots of qbs would have won in their situations (put Rivers on those team and they might have more rings). They are not HOFers.

You guys haven't seen 90 percent of Purdys throws are at or between the hash? So what? Baltimore was told to stop it. The rest of the league put them in the pro bowl. All points to Baltimore coming out rusty and losing after their bye to me.
Honestly, I would not be shocked by this. Tough situation to be in plus Lamar has a lot to prove in the playoffs.
they are the best in the nfl right now and have to take a break haha.

Why does that make him an idiot? You don’t think teams study film and don’t know other team’s tendencies? Like this is some secret?
difference between knowing what teams do and being good enough to stop it. The Carolina panthers could know every play the other team does and it won’t matter.

Nice player but I’ll chuck my remote if he’s the pick. Safety/CB is one position I trust this regime to pick later rounds and get production out of. We can’t keep going with no weapons for josh. That strategy has already cost us and it’s going to sink us completely if we keep doing it. Double up on drafting receivers and let’s roll.
I do agree with this too. McDermott has his faults but he is one of the best d backs coaches in the entire nfl.
1 minute ago, whorlnut said:Imagine saying this the other way around…pretty weak post if you ask me.
He was joking. But this actually happened with black qbs. But cb isn’t a position where you can fake being good at. It’s the most physically demanding position in the nfl. It’s impossible to be a good cb with the rules so you need the most elite athletes playing there. I like this guy but it would tough for him to be an elite outside cb. It’s hard for 99% of guys.

Cant be a white dude. I think it's been over 10 years since a white guy has played that position.
Same with running back. I remember when CMC came out. A GM said they'd never go with a white RB or CB.
Huh? CMC was a consensus top 5 pick.
if you don’t understand why corner back is a completely different physical than any other other position in football, not sure you know ball! If you aren’t a 4.3 player with crazy change of direction, you won’t make it at cb. It’s not a position where you can get by if you don’t elite physical skills. Tre is going to struggle when he comes back. CB is a different beast than every other position.

Honestly, I think Lamar won it when the Ravens dismantled the team everyone thought was the heavy favorite for the Super Bowl winner in SF. Then smashing the #2 seed in the AFC in an encore I think was the nail in the coffin on anyone elses bid for the MVP.
I know you are one of the biggest Allen guys on this board so thank you for the reasonable outlook.
Allen now from what he was his rookie year is a startling growth. The next step, and there are a bunch of reasons why, is to be more consistent. He can have less tds next year and be a much better player (and potentially MVP).

Does anybody else find the Ravens fan argument of “if you watched games, then you would get it” as a hand wavy excuse for Jackson’s middle-of-road stats utterly unconvincing?
Like what exactly has he done to be more impressive than Allen or even Prescott? Once a narrative gets rolling, forget about it. That momentum is impossible to stop.
Um, we would be making the same one if our offense jumped on teams and had games finished by halftime like they have in 90% of their games this year.
they are murdering teams from the opening whistle and don’t have to try to rally or stat pad. I would have love to have Allen have as efficient of a season as Lamar just had because we were taking care of business from the start of the game.
Allen has as many MVP moments in a game as any qb. But to act like he and the offense hasn’t been maddenly inconsistent is delusional.

2023 MVP: Lamar will win it with 15 fewer TDs than Josh Allen (end of season talk pg 75+)
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
At the same point, Lamar and the Ravens have been the most consistent team all year. They take leads early and just win games. I can’t definitely see Allen having worst td numbers, cutting down on turnovers, and winning the MVP.
