Fitztragic and his INT's will always rear their ugly head when it matters most. But the guy can be a prolific passer.

I mean you aren't going to drop to many 5 yard passes on 3rd & 10 that the defense doesn't contest because they want you to catch that ball. This is the limitation of the analytics guys - they jump to conclusions when presented with the numbers often not considering the most likely factors explaining those numbers.

Expand I think you are being overprotective here. It's a negative reflection on the receiving corps not Allen.

PolishPrince Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 I am not at all ashamed to admit it. I am in love with Josh Allen. 1

I think INT% is probably one of the most important stats. Brees just has it all this year...

Drew seems to have gone downhill since that whole silly in game ceremony. Not a fan of those.

Mat68 Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 His velocity is a bit of an issue for his wrs. I will argue that and the wrs comfortably running propper scramble concepts is due to his limited reps in the offseason. Noodle arm Peterman and McCarron threw soft balls and Allen throws fast balls.

Expand He is beginning to show the ability to throw accurately with more touch when the situation calls for it. The clutch pass to Croom on the game sealing drive being just one such example from the game this past Sunday. 5
