78thealltimegreat Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Really liked what I saw the game wasn’t to big for him just keeps needing more and more reps with his receivers 29 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 The flaws he has always shown are still prevalent. Most disconcerting is his accuracy, which remains a problem. The narrative in pre-season was that he was improving in that area with better footwork. That almost never works. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Wasn’t a fan of his ball placement/accuracy on several passes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Positives Stands tall in the pocket and is not phased by the rush Goes through his progressions Can make any throw Mobility and toughness Isn’t Nate Peterman Negatives Doesn’t recognize pre-snap looks (shifts, blitzes, protection adjustments) Footwork regressed today Drifts sideways under pressure instead of stepping up into a muddy pocket Doesnt trust his eyes - waits too long to make throws to open receivers Mental clock is still too slow Accuracy remains an issue 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Color me shocked that the same people who've hated the pick since day 1 are still hating on it. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeGOATski Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I liked the way he fired up the team. In the words of Zurlein, "he has sooo much to work with." Just gotta have patience. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Fan Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Kind of still neutral on him after today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just trying to muscle it with his arm. Saying that, I was happy he got the TD in the end. He mad some nice throws as well. He just needs to learn and recognize certain packages.

PolishPrince Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I dont even have a gripe with his ball placement (could be better, but to me it was good enough). My issue with him was seeming hesitant to throw. I liked what I saw considering his lack of weapons, terrible line and not much of a running game though. Hoping to see him improve and learn this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 If you can't see how solid of a first start that was, that's a you problem. Not an Allen problem, a you problem. 9 2 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDonut Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Accuracy problems? Besides the throw to Demarco I thought he was fine 7 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodman19 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 The most impressive part for me was the plays he was able to make because of nothing but his physical attributes, when the game slows down and he understands how to dissect a defense, hes going to put up big numbers. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 One thing he needs to learn, right away, is to slide feet first at the end of a big run. He's a good runner but he should not be receiving big contact at the end of runs. The coaching staff needs to work on that and improve it immediately. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Without considering how much we have invested in him etc. and just looking at his performance today: I think that we at least have reason to be hopeful about Josh's potential. The stat line was not great, but I think we saw enough to remain cautiously optimistic. He played pretty well under very difficult circumstances. The Bills braintrust has not done him any favors (re line or receiving weapons). He showed toughness and will need to be. I have no idea whether Josh will be a "franchise" QB, but we do have reason to at least be hopeful about his potential. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had plenty of time on those inaccurate passes as well. perhaps he needs some reps with the changing WRs and TEs ? He also had someone not looking for the ball going deep. and that happened at least twice. work in progress Ilike the kid even more after today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
