BuffaloBud420 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Great throw to Benjamin, his best throw all year. Ashame that's the play he got hurt on. Hopefully it's just a bone bruise. He scrambled well. Get him a line and some weapons, we are off to the races. Even happier watching Mayfield and Rosen stink it up. Darnold looked pretty good, I always had him and Allen as the top guys. 2 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan130 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Very good? Compared to who, Nate Peterman? 12 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78thealltimegreat Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Agreed the game doesn’t really seem to big for Josh seems by design the coaches are basically giving one read and if it s not open use his legs and that’s it just a shame he got hurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShakAttack Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) I would not call it "good" but at the same time, I think he is playing smarter than before. He has a lot to work on. I think some of the regression people are seeing in certain areas is because he's trying to focus on fixing other things, but the only thing we can do is remain hopeful because we are all-in on this guy like it or not and hopefully by next year when we improve his supporting cast, we will see it all coming together. REALLY hoping that he can play against the Colts next week because it is completely reasonable to expect 200+ yards passing against that defense and he needs that type of game in order to build some momentum for himself and continue to grow.

LFC24 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) had had 10 completions for 80 yards lol. 1 good throw doesn't negate the multiple games of poor QB play. he was bad. i don't understand this "he needs better weapons" argument. who is Darnold throwing to? The Jets offense is not much better than ours. Edited October 15, 2018 by LFC24 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Nails Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Yeah. At this point I’m very low on him. Don’t think he is progressing. Just don’t see anything promising to hang my hat on at this point. I think it was Darnold or bust and we busted 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets offense is not much better than ours. Jets definitely have a better OL. Kearse is better than anyone we have. Robby Anderson has come on strong for them and had nearly 1000 yards with Josh Mccown at QB last year. Enunwa is also a solid WR. They definitely have a better supporting cast on offense. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangarang Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I was only able to watch the first half but if the 2nd half looked anything like the first then you are mental if you think he looked good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, but from what I am hearing, he did start to play better in the second half. The throw that OP is referring to - 39 yard strike to KB - was in the second half and he apparently had another long connection with KB called back on a stupid mistake by Bills that had no impact on the play, also in the second half. Meanwhile, our OL is doing no favors with all the false start penalties and apparently we average 3rd and 9 yards to go on third downs, which Allen deserves part of the blame for, but not all. He has a ways to go, but the Bills are not doing him a lot of favors either, and neither has our schedule for that matter. I'm very interested to see what he looks like against an "average" defense next week. No excuses at that point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still willing to defend allen at this point and give him the rest of this season, but my god, I'll never get over that pick with Rosen on the board. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
