I hope he gets much better quickly. His inaccuracy was a concern, and a concern we have all had the moment he was drafted. I saw inaccuracy a little too often and it worries me at this junction .

I have mentioned this but here it is again More accuracy especially to the 2 throws to wide open WR's where the ball was thrown low and behind. Of the 2 INT's one was very ill advised throw and the other was very underthrown. I can accept INT's but the 2 he threw were very bad decisions IMO, and both very preventable. He needs to identify matchups better.. This is something that can happen with experience, but he did miss a few wide open receivers while scanning only 1 side of the field. Last word

OK I am not hurt I am only replying to people who have quoted me Where have I been hurt.. Just answering the quotes

you have some serious forum issues you should deal with I never called out anybody else's opinion...... and I allowed others to have one.. You should try it

I'm very upset with losing 2. Especially looking as horrible as we do

yeah I am allowing WR's as an excuse to why many passes were inaccurate throws. If you are ok with that then fine I am not... I have no idea what Darnold did nor do I care. Why would I care ? why can't I be concerned why do you have to take my opinion so goddamn personal. I've adequately put forth my feeling and have not done anything else. Have not been rude to anybody nor have I devolved into calling people names. I simply stated my views after one game based on nothing else but my observations WHY WHY WHY is that hard for people to just accept and let it go. We all have opinions..

how by getting better during the 2nd game I wasn't very fond of Taylor I do want great QB play, but would of been satisfied with some better on target thrwos in his debut. You can debate me all day long if you want but now your fishing for something out of me.. I walked away from Allen's 1st game concerned with his accuracy, his ability to scan the D pre-snap, and to find the open WR.. He struggled. So from here I hope he improves.... Yes and thanks for the understanding I am not getting on him I am just calling it the way I saw it.... and yes at this junction I am concerned

not sure what context I HAVE to take. I made the observation based on professional football I don't agree that our WR situation is that bad... it is not great but if your going to use WR as an excuse then I just don't agree.. The OL looks bad that I agree..

2 passes to wide open receivers thrown way off target. Would of liked to see him throw and accurate passes here. He had time he just made piss poor throws to them More than few very inaccurate thrown incompletions 2 INT's that were very poorly poorly thrown footballs and one of them should of been thrown out of bounds. The other was underthrown. Not an end all but not encouraging either. Hopefully he is a quick learner and these things fade away quickly. What do I expect.. improvement

What did you like? I am focusing purely on his passing because that is what we need.. however I will lay the disclaimer. I hope he improves quickly.

and yet nobody can take an honest observation here.. I can be dishonest if you like again calling it the way I see it. I would of liked to have seen A LOT MORE POSITIVES. At this junction he looked shaky..

I had lots of positives during preseason.. However real bullets are flying and I did not see much from a passing stand point in his 1st start. Yeah he ran a few made a few swing screens, but from and overall passing stand point and a QB general stand point he has lots of room for improvement hopefully each week he improves..

I'm not asking for excuses.. I am just calling it the way I saw it and then after I got to review it. I'm not writing this guy off but he has to get much better.... much better..

I'm just calling it the way I saw it with absolutely no references to anything else. He was underwhelming throwing the football in his 1st start. that is my opinion, I saw a QB who was inaccurate and did not make many quick reads left WRs open. Its not the only one game but his 1st was ho hum at best

I thought he looked real shaky throwing the ball. Very inaccurate, not leading receivers.. Hoping this gets better but I am very concerned at this junction Ok Joe you laughed at this but the video shows a QB who was exactly this. I watched it more than once.. 2 really bad INt's, not leading WRs who were clearly open.. left wide open Wr's a few times while he focused on one side of the field

We have a porous OL so he has to be. In the NFL the quick pass is a big part of keeping D's honest... If you don't have that then you greatly reduced your ability to be an NFL QB. You can not tell me that Ben or Stafford never had the quick slant in their repertoire

Calling it the way I saw it. He made plays with his feet because he was unable to find open WR's or make that quick D dissection at the line and find the WR with quick throw. Maybe this gets better but, as of his 1st start it was subpar. He threw a few lame ducks, and had some inaccurate passes and I just wasn't happy with his performance. You can try to cling to a few positives but overall I did not see anything to get overly excited for in his debut.. I hope he gets better but don't start this Not my guy BS I jumped on the Allen train when drafted him.. I don't care about Darnold Rosen or any other QB in the entire league. I only care about Allen and what I saw with my own 2 eyes. He did not look good passing the football IMO again not throwing in the towel but was not thrilled with his debut I don't care about any other QB in this entire league. Allen did not look that good in my eyes. Lots of bad throws and not scanning the entire field. Can't think of any quick throws he made to beat the blitz or rush besides a couple of swing screens Again I don't hate Allen I just hope he gets a lot better quickly...

please elaborate instead of a shake my head cause I have absolutely no idea if you are agreeing with me or attempting to call me out for an opinion.

I don't think the guarantee works if there is a retirement / quit involved

Allen was wildly inaccurate and was missing wide open receivers by not scanning the 2nd half of the field. That is what worries me the most. I'll be giving this a few more weeks before I put my stamp on my expectation but IMO Allen did not look like an NFL QB. He looked like a Bills QB... But Allen's debut did not go well at all.

Unless they have search warrants they can not patrol private lots as far as I know.. You have to have paperwork or an agreement with the owners, and there is no national state or county law that says no table slamming. This is a Bills rule on Bills property

this is a 5 year deal IMO. Anything less than that is just another tear down, new scheme, flush the next few years down the toilet. This franchise is desperate for continuity at the GM and HC spots.

I believe the all 22 showed WR's open. If our QB can't find them then yes I expect to double down on a QB... you are less than nothing in this league without consistent dependable solid QB play. Now if Allen starts throwing to the open guys and they keep dropping passes that's a different discussion.. But I expect our QB to be able to identify D, make the right decision and deal with the onslaught because the great ones do, which forced D's to be more honest... Allen has to be capable of beating the 8 in a box onslaught if he is not then there is no reason to be patient, he'll never get it, and we've walked this walk a dozen times in the last 20 years. The current regime paid a price to get a top QB.. They can be patient with him and he can compete with another QB with equal or greater ceiling. A 2nd solid QB asset is never wasted IMO. Doesn't mean there will be one worth taking in the top 10 and I am not preaching over reaching, but I would not rest on my QB laurels as this will get you fired the fastest. Fans want excitement and they want it mostly at the QB position. So it is up to Allen alone to keep this from being a possibility. If we stink it up Allen looks like crap and we draft a pass rusher when there is a highly ranked QB sitting there then yes I will be pissed off. I want great QB play and I want nothing else but constant and total commitment to finding that QB and to not rest until they do. The game of football is quite boring without a capable QB. I'm sick and tired of Bills football....

doesn't change the facts.. He looked the best in preseason which it was always best man wins the job. Stats or no stats he completed passes and moved the team down the field consistently in preseason. What else could you probably be looking for in an open competition QB battle. All 3 QB's made similar miss judgements your initial post was a bit sour. As you have told me to prepare to be upset which wasn't really a discussion it was simply you telling me I am wrong and to go pfffft myself !!!! The whole Perterdude things is hard to argue. I even thought Peterdude would be cut before week 1 before training camp, but No other Bills QB looked better in preseason.. Maybe Allen develops more but in preseason there was no doubt. All 3 made plenty of errors but regardless of what you feel about stats Peterman clearly won the open competition.. Obviously it was a mirage but mirages are still real until the truth is revealed. Its hard to fake it with the solid performances he put up... but that's the scary part

He completed close to 80% and had a QBR somewhere near 127.. So yes he clearly looked solid in preseason. I made many references that I still worried about his arm, but there was 0 doubts who had the best preseason at QB for the Bills... you're in a combative mood today
