Actually, the proper term is alligator arm. As in, Tommy alligator armed the pass to him in the Super Bowl. Great game by Josh. A little premature to call him a budding Superstar IMHO. Hopefully he doesn't get nipped in the bud as many before him have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBills808 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 If it's too early to call Allen a budding superstar then it's likewise too early to say the same of Mahomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His teammates were putting plenty on their backs. Be as negative as you want, it only means more crow to eat down the line. Your sad attempt to make Allen look bad makes me laugh deep down. Just wondering who peed in your cheerios? Ya can't stop the Allen train. Even with his receivers dropping balls that would have teed off other qbs, Allen just kept making plays. The defense gave him opportunities, and he cashed in. In the 2nd half he was instructed to manage the clock and the game. And the defense did their job. If Allen didn't have the "it", would his teammates play that hard for him or have as high of praise for him as they do? The answer is Allen is the man. So you are saying you know more than the guys who play alongside of him? I do believe I will take their experience and word over a miserable Internet poster.

And it might rain in the Sahara desert for a month. One can't live by what if's. What if Denver took Allen like they should have? And then you get Rosen who then gets killed by his Oline not being able to block for him. How long does Rosen play without getting hurt? There are so many what if''s in life. A guy has to live in the real world of what it actually is. I saw Allen do the same hurdle over a player at Wyoming. He didn't get injured and the game went on. People who have watched Allens career now what he is capable of. The guy is growing and learning the game at a very fast rate because he finally has an OC building an offense around him. Not trying to put a square peg in a round hole. An OC teaching him footwork and how to make reads. He is now just tapping the potential of Allen. Wait, it gets better. Just start enjoying the process, the kid is learning on the fly. 3 minutes ago, TheElectricCompany said: Yawn. Sorry Mrs. Allen. Whenever you get through your PMS, try and enjoy the Allen Show.

K-9 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I thought he looked strong when he dragged Ingram for several yards on his back and was still able to get a throw off (albeit ill-advised) with the LB draped all over him and that horse collar by Barr showed it again. The kid is Big Ben with mobility and running ability. Very impressive. Lonely day for Barr in that film room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a few that said "project" and "bust" that the gloom'n'doom posters hatched on. I live outside of Buffalo and something really weird happened... everyone inside of Buffalo it seemed had a much lower expectation of Josh Allen than the rest of the nation did. I know I was quite shocked looking at the message board after the draft and seeing the negativety I actually came up with a theory that your sports media personnel (howard simon?) stated too much negativity and this turned into a psychological case study of sorts, where he or others actually changed the thinking in Buffalo on this guy Josh Allen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChasBB Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 (edited) Buffalo will look like a more desirable destination for free-agent WRs! Edit: I was one of the posters who wanted to see Peterman get the 1st game start. I'll say, simply, I was wrong! Allen is clearly the best guy for the starting job. I still think Peterman can become a good backup, but he has to prove it when it counts. The TD against the Colts last year was great, but he has to play better and more consistently in games that matter to become starter material. I don't want to write him off yet and still think he can develop his game - he's a young guy, too. But, results matter. Tough league. Go Allen!!

Lots to like but still some concerns. It's early but the early returns are looking good. But actually though - can we just be patient with one thing and not start the messiah conversation yet? I'm as excited as the next guy, and think he's been playing well, especially for a rookie that needs development. But considering it's only his third game and teams haven't had enough tape to really prepare for him, I'll be more willing to jump into the "superstar" moniker when it actually happens... Let's give it a few more weeks, at least, but color me hopeful - the most I've been in 18 years. Edited September 27, 2018 by ctk232 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
