Once he learns the game he will be unstoppable... assuming we have receivers who can keep up. Edited August 10, 2018 by PromoTheRobot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsPride12 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Still has a long way to go but the potential is clearly there...after tonight now I can totally see the comparisons that were made to his ceiling being a more athletic Ben Roethlisburger 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folks will be singing a different tune as soon as those two show how “average” they really are. It almost sucks that both played so well tonight because seeing Allen with the 1’s or 2’s would give us more insight and that’s not going to happen next week. Allen needs to improve each week, he was patient in the pocket but things need to develop faster. Tough to tell if that was him, the WRs or both. Foster did himself no favors nor his QB. If you want to make the team you have to lay out for that ball, instead he throws up the mitts in a half baked attempt. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Allen was cool and confident. I'd really like to see him working with the first team offense in the next game or so. 13 minutes ago, Commonsense said: Robert Foster is bad. Quite bad.

Needs a lot of improvement, but has promise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Allen wasn’t the incompetent, bumbling, inaccurate fool I was half expecting him to be....based on some of the “experts”. He definitely has some tools and didn’t look overwhelmed out there. Kinda saw a little Carson Wentz in his game. All in all, he won’t be starting right away but the future looks good.

JA will have rough patches but he looks the part of someone who the game is not “too big” for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykidsdad Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Thinking back to last year's preseason, I'd say Peterman was maybe a 4 and Tyrod was a 6, just based on what I remember. After only one week, I figure you have to grade Peterman and mcCaron ats 9s, and JA as a 6. Still not a lot of data, but in general, Im genuinely encouraged. Id rather see good play than bad play in the preseason even if it doesnt mean a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Trying to think of the past Bills QB's who showed that kind of arm. Bledsoe, Lamonica, maybe James Harris. Tasker was saying that Gale Gilbert had a cannon. Anybody else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
