Allen already a factor in QB race ?

Josh Allen is winning this job. How refreshing to see some separation starting to manifest on day three of camp...rather than week three. We all know what that looks like.

 

It’s interesting that Allen had the most adversity in his college career of the 5 first round QBs and will be the first of them to start.  

 

He's starting? When did coach announce that?

At this point Josh should be standing out...there's a huge difference in ability between a guy who went #7 overall v.s. two guys who were 5th round picks.  I'm very happy to hear Josh is showing some separation in these early practices but I think the big thing with Josh is how will he handle reading NFL defenses and the overall speed of processing information as a starting NFL quarterback.

 

Bingo...

 

He's shining in situations where no one's allowed to even breathe on him.

 

Let's see how he does vs. grown men looking to do him harm.

LOL... 3 days and its over. Camp is over, PS games cancelled and we're getting ready for Baltimore on 9/9

 

There is a thread each for McCarron and Peterman, so I felt it was only fitting that one was started for the real QB.

It's one practice.  I also heard McCarron has been the most consistent.  

 

He will get killed behind this oline anyway.

 

Our defensive line is stout but I haven't heard much about our QBs being under pressure. It seems we finally have a good offensive system and MAYBE these Olineman can make it work.

First let me say... I'm still not sold, & I'm not slapping butts just yet...lol. But, from the videos, & what I've been reading from camp, Josh Allen is doing well. That's good... Sal Capaccio gives a good breakdown in case anyone wants more in depth. 

 

I will still disagree with the pick until he proves it otherwise. But so far, after 3 days... not bad...not bad at all.

"Taking all of that in and looking at the big picture, it’s clear Allen is a legitimate option to become the team’s starter week one at the Baltimore Ravens. Of course there is still a long way to go and he hasn’t been perfect by any means, but to anyone watching practice, from fans in the stands to local or national media on the sidelines, there’s no doubting who the most naturally gifted QB is on the field every day.

For Allen to be taking reps with the first team already is somewhat surprising given that he was exclusively with the third string offense throughout OTAs and mostly through minicamp" - Sal

Soon, there will be a little arrow pointing to where all the other Josh Allen thoughts go. 

 

Nothing personal. 

This isn't a thought... it's a new article that was just posted. It's a good read... especially for the posters that don't go on Twitter or any other outlets. Sal gives a good breakdown. People interested should get a chance to read it...that's what this forum is for...

I didn’t think that was being a jerk at all. I wasn’t a D*^& about it. There might be a dozen (or two) Allen threads a day if everyone wants to post every link to every article. If anyone is a jerk here, I’m not feeeling bad about my position. But I’m not a mod, and I wish nothing but good stuff on everyone.

Yes there are multiple allen post but it’s just this is my thought. This is my prediction. He was posting a link with his thoughts. I know you said nothing personal but the OP posted a new article ...now some of the others should have posted their thoughts and predictions in the current allen threads.

I have been (and still am) willing to let Allen sit all year if need be and shouldn't start UNTIL he is ready.

 

That said with how he is doing so far he is showing more than the other QBs and I believe that he will win the competition.

 

 

Man it feels good to have a franchise QB !!! Go Bills !!!

 

 

 

He will start Game 1.  It is, and has always been, entirely about him.

 

Any suggestion to the contrary is ridiculous.

Sal needs to get a clue.  There is nothing surprising about Allen getting first team reps.  He got first team reps in mini camp.  It's only continuing because he is earning them.  I swear these guys cannot get over the crap coaches in the past that would just give people jobs without earning it.

Sal C. is an idiot, full stop.

 

And of course Allen is going to get first team reps!  He's going to be the week 1 starter.

 

I'm sure McD and crew have a road map planned for the QB rotations and how they want to get it done, but it should be no surprise that Allen is the priority in training camp


Well, for Sal C., maybe that is a surprise.

The number 7 pick in the draft is “already a factor” in a QB competition that includes AJ McCarton and Nate Peterman?

 

Well I just fell off my chair.

For it to be a race there has to be more than one competitor. Anyone have any news on the other two competitors in this race?

I think that AJM is quietly having a solid camp

 

He is getting work with the ones and isnt falling on his face....even if he is dinking and dunking.

 

There is also some commentary that he is the best so far at making throws against pressure.......so there is that.

 

In the end...I think the qbs on this team will be Josh Allen and AJM
