Hard to believe he wasn't drafted till the 6th... Someone said something about red flags, didn't they? 5 minutes ago, NewDayBills said: If he wins it in an HONEST battle, there should be no downside at ALL to start him week 1. To me, winning the start means he's the guy who gives us the best chance to win games NOW... Like I said, 7 wins is my bar....3+ game winning drives would also help in converting me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything less than that and I'm going to start getting really worried and I may question my faith in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicharito Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 5 wins due to our defense shutting some teams down, and I’m completely ok with it! I have a good feeling allen will be a good one for a a lot of years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year, when we'll have a boatload of money in FA, surround him with legitimate offensive threats and take the training wheels off. Pretty much hit the nail on the head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackOrton Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 1 minute ago, Kirby Jackson said: Pretty much hit the nail on the head. Win or lose, I think it's most important what Allen looks like than how he plays. By week 12, does he start looking more comfortable? Does he start grasping the offense? Does he make decisions for the right reason (not necessarily the right result)? Most importantly, is he aggressive? I don't care if we're 1-11, when there's 4 minutes left in a one score game, does he try to win? Does he attack a defense? Does he trust his arm in a tough throw in a big spot? I'm a firm believer that a rookie who plays their whole or almost their whole first year, you see their ceiling by the end. You see what they will be. Derek Carr in his 15th game already looked like Derek Carr. Russell Wilson was the Russell Wilson by the 2013 postseason. If I can see the vision by the end of year one, its on. If Allen is skittish, uncomfortable, unaggressive, we're in trouble. You can make an aggressive QB tone down the mistakes, you CANNOT make a conservative QB trust themselves and their arm. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klos63 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Since we made the playoffs last season and I think our defense will be significantly better, I'm expecting the playoffs. If he wins the job out of training camp it means he gives us the best chance to win. He'll be Offensive ROY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lfod Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 (edited) My expectations is that is he starts the experiment begins and Allen stays the starter until the experiment is over regulardless of the outcome. If you start him and he gets killed I won't be listening to excuses because I wanted the team to be patient and not start him until everything around him was ready as well as him being fully ready for the NFL.
