Kelly the Dog Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Allen was better than Watson today. Watson has Hopkins and Fuller, was worse against the rush, threw two horrible INTs, fumbled twice, was sacked six times, didn't feel the rush worse than Josh, and his only TD was a fabulous catch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like a guy who should have been picked in the 4th or 5th round who would compete for a roster spot. He looks completely outmatched out there. He looks a lot like Tyler Bray. Rocket arm, no accuracy, no clue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen was a clear 1st round prospect due to his physical abilities. He has more arm talent than 3/4ths of NFL QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What scouting reports had him as a 4th or 5 th round pick? Stupid post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two terrible INTs? You call a freak ball batted in the air that drops incomplete 99/100 times a "terrible INT?" No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone just compared him to Logan Thomas. That's a great comparison. Allen might be big, strong and fast, but he has no idea how to play QB. He's taken our passing game back to the stone age of professional football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson had an ugly game, but in the biz of making excuses for QBs, we do call it "played well enough to win." See, Bills v Titans on 10/7/18 for more info.

Most draft experts considered him a 3rd round talent who would be taken much higher in the 1st round simply due to need around the league and the fact that the team that took him could be the lucky lottery winner, but that's all based on speculated, perceived, potential. The Allen we have seen is the guy he has always been. Why anyone thought he would morph into something much, much better at the NFL level, facing much better talent and coaching, I have no idea. These arguments will go away with the passage of time. I mean no one around here is still waiting for EJ Manuel to arrive, are they? They were all arguing for EJ a while ago though.

Please go back and watch the video of Tyrod's performances last year against the Saints, Jags and others. Our passing game has been in the stone ages since about week 8 of 2011.

He was awful. That was a won in spite of him. And I like him a lot. He threw a bunch of nice balls. But he was awful. They won because of the pick six, they didn't score on a first and goal from the one after an interference in the endzone call. He was extremely careless with the ball.

Which passes specifically did Allen not complete today that you'd expect a 1st round talent rookie to complete? Keep in mind he had 11 completions and 6 incompletions.

Albwan Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 (edited) All I know is i've grown tired of watching just about every other nfl team throwing the ball and scoring points. It's about time this organization gets more than 50% of the damned game right at any given time.

Iverwig Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Keep in mind Allen should not be playing this year. Most scouts said he needed to sit and work on some things but yet the Bills have run him out there and fans expect him to be a star. It wasn’t going to happen this year and he along with the team QB position have suffered due to an incompetent staff and organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
