  1. 1. Allen's Last Pass (12/2): Bad Pass or Drop?

It was wobbly. But only maybe 3 QBs in NFL can get the ball to the goalline with the way Josh was running... Allen, Mahomes, and Rodgers. That's it. No one else can make that throw. Clay has to catch that ball.

It's both, add the option for both are to blame.  You CANNOT put that play on one guy. Anyone that does is an idiot.

This isn't very civil.

Both, more on Clay. 

 

The other thing with Clay, which I'm sure has been mentioned somewhere here but I haven't gone through all 8 pages...not having the acumen to come back to the ball was a problem. We didn't have to have a TD there, it wasn't 4th and goal or the last play of the game.

Little of both. 

 

Should have been caught 

Should have been a better pass (but then again only a handful of QBs could have even come close)

Bad pass, worse drop. I still voted pass though.

 

I think Allen could have corrected his feet and got it in there.  He avoided their rush so well I don't think he realized how much time he gave himself. For Clay, he did about all he could.  If he caught it, it would have been an incredible diving catch.

What was wrong with the pass? I made into the endzone, what more is there?

It did more than that: it hit Clay in his stone hands.  He would have dropped a perfect spiral.

True and I agree, but I don't understand why people say it was a bad pass, what was bad about it? It made at least 2 yards deep into the endzone, yet I keep seeing it referred to as a bad pass, why? No one can argue that it didn't get there, Clay dropped it, it's 100% on Clay.

The pass is a super freaky play.  The ball traveled well over 50 yards.  Clay needs to gather himself and make the play.  Only Mahomes or Rodgers could have made that pass.  Clay was surprised by the pass coming to him and wasnt in good position to catch it.  Mahomes get 5 passes caught like this a game.  If Buffalo pass catchers dont get the ball on the numbers they dont catch it.

maybe a miracle win would have been too much too soon for Allen

It was on Clay as much as the drop against Carolina last season was on Zay.

 

Not a great throw, but certainly catchable. Now if you spent last season bashing Tyrod Taylor for the throw against Carolina and are not claiming this was all on Clay, you're being intellectually dishonest.

not sure... what's the current fine and penalty for copping to being intellectually dishonest, but just this once

It's more like having a little weed than a major offense. Most cops will let you go with a warning if you don't act like a prick.
