LeGOATski Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 He moved the offense. Should've had a TD. By the time he was in, it was almost like just another preseason game, though. ? The kid needs to start the rest of the season. We'll enjoy the ups and downs and have a fun year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodman19 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 (edited) No crap, he was the only one who did anything. Recievers didn't catch and the line didn't block. He ran for downs and eluded some pressure that the line was giving. Edited September 12, 2018 by Woodman19 Spelling mistakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 18 hours ago, 26CornerBlitz said: FWIW 6 up, 6 down: Highest and lowest Buffalo Bills Week 1 grades from Pro Football Focus HIGHEST: Josh Allen Overall grade: 73.3 Best category: Pass (70.3) Snaps played: 32 Here's a bit of a surprise. Josh Allen is currently ranked 11th among all quarterbacks with a 73.3 grade. His stat-line (6-of-15, 74 yards, 4 carries, 26 yards) clearly didn't tell the entire story on Sunday. Allen came into the game at a point where the Ravens defense could sit back and play the pass. His grade was significantly higher than Nathan Peterman's overall grade. LOWEST: Nathan Peterman Overall grade: 24.3 Worst category: Pass (25.3) Snaps played: 32 Nathan Peterman's start against the Ravens was nothing short of a disaster. He completed 5-of-18 passes for 24 yards, threw two interceptions and took five sacks. Among qualifying quarterbacks, Peterman's grade earned him last place (31st). The next lowest grade was given to Sam Bradford (43.7). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 He looked like he belong out there. I don't know how McBeane could possibly start Peterman after watching him vs Allen when the bullets fly. Anyone else notice the Defense actually had to respect his arm once Allen came in? He far an away gives them the best chance to win each week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJS Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 He at least gave us something to watch on Sunday. I'm excited to see him develop. He made some mistakes, but also showed flashes of excellent play. I like that he doesn't get rattled out there. He is always willing to make a tough throw and make something happen. Fun to watch. The rest of the offense really let him down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick the Greek Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Also got sacked 3 times. Also had some bad throws. But yea, he’s better than Peterman, which isn’t saying ANYTHING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was most definitely not a preseason game. If you think the Ravens didn't want a shutout, you crazy man. They were still blitzing and flying all over the field. There aren't that many backups on a 53 man roster, so it's not like you can play 11 backups on D. It was the real deal for Allen...

PFF's grades are a little shaky but it's clear he played well when he was in. It was a glorified scrimmage at that point but he moved the ball and got unlucky with a couple of big drops. Took a few sacks where guys got open and he put himself in trouble when he shouldn't have which was the knock on him at Wyoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring it Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Get ready Bills fans! This will be a roller coaster ride! Moments of “ dang how did he do that?” And “ dang why did he do that?”. I expect to say a lot! Hopefully by late season the mistakes will be fewer! Im getting to one of his games to see him in person. It will be worth the long drive!

I was at the game (dismal day). While the crowd was dwindling, the PA announcer relished updating every Raven score...."Ravens xxx, Buffalo NOTHING". That "NOTHING" got more intense and got big cheers every time he said it. Many starters were still in well into the 2nd half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobot Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 His receivers let him down big time (and most of the team). The dropped passes not only took points on the board.. but ALSO resulted in putting the team in 3rd and long situations, letting Baltimore pass-rush tee-off to get sacks on Allen. But everyone just talks about Allen getting sacked 3-times or whatever. 1 hour ago, mead107 said: He will need a back up because Allen will have a broken spirit after throwing 8 picks okay bud. It takes balls to play in the NFL. If Allen's spirit is gonna get broken from one bad game, then he's already a bust. Put the kid in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 The Ravens might have a top 5 defense this year. I'm excited to see what Allen does vs lesser opponents.

row_33 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 i never have felt the Ravens or a Harbaugh-led team would do anything but show up at home well prepped and bringing as much hell as their prideful D would bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 We are going to need WR's with great catching ability because I've never seen a QB rocket passes like Allen does. I don't think the WR's will adjust to him for a few more games. Freakish arm strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavy Kevi Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I don't need stats to tell me they were better with Allen in there... To play devil's advocate, it was kind of pre-season-ish. Big deficit, we pull Nate, they pull Flacka. It's just hard to tell- everyone knew the game was over. It's obvious Josh is better, and the only reason I would sit him for a few more weeks is the line's collective inability to block anyone. I will admit that trotting Nate out there again would send the message that it's a throw-away year, and you are just protecting Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
