Almost all of his tackles are taller than him. LaConjecture is conjecturing again not reporting. Cam is 6'5 245. Josh is 6'5 240 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a hard time giving these guys credit when they do this, as well as bringing up completion percentages of college QBs from 20-40 years ago. I don't care that he was a scout. And he writes for a website with poor editing. Edited June 1, 2018 by Drunken Pygmy Goat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be eagerly waiting for DPG pieces with all relevant content and zero errors since you seem to be such a critic.

Sorry, just seems like another lazy, regurgitated piece to me, Greg. Why bring up Vick, Kelly, and Favre? Simply because they had poor completion percentages in college, just like Allen? Did they, too, have footwork issues that led to those numbers? I'm sure they did at times, just like pretty much every QB ever, but there's no mention of that in the article, in relation to their completion percentages. Could be that the talent around them played a role, among other things, not to mention that the game was different back then. Comparing QBs from different eras is foolish, especially when comparing numbers. I get the point he (you?) was trying to make, but I feel like I've read this article before, several times, from several different journalists. Got a click from me, though... And he didn't provide any examples, or what may have led to bad footwork on a given play. And he also didn't attribute all bad throws to bad footwork. Not saying that he should have, but what were the issues on those plays, if not footwork? Do those issues support his article in any way, or were they conveniently left out??? I didn't mean to ruffle your feathers. I'm just tired of reading the same things, I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this juncture, you aren't going to get much ground breaking analysis from analysts who critique Allen so I'm not sure what you expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
