Running to the ball would have carried him out of the endzone before he secured the catch, he would have had to try to get back across the line and probably didn't know if anyone was behind him.  It's physics, go learn some.

 

He still should have run to the ball.  Also, if it was a better throw, he would not have had to, TD, Bills win.

But seriously this ain't the thread to voice JA criticism lol

 

I know, it's a thread about fudging Allen's numbers, because the real numbers aren't looking so good :)

You don't understand statistics.  It's very clear from your posts.  Most people don't.  You're just another guy who cherry picks crap stats to buttress your preconceived notion that Allen won't succeed.

So now you're going to move the goal post with pure speculation. You said:

Clay would have had to come out of the endzone to catch that ...

The video evidence shows quite clearly you are wrong. Your response to the video evidence shows everybody how pathetic you are.

Another one who didn't take physics in school.  Thanks for raising your hand.

Not sure what these women have to do with Josh Allen, you guys are weird. She's pretty cute though.

She?  How old are you?  

 

You are either very young or very very old.

Rosen’s personnel is better and he has less wins.

 

I am not a Rosen guy and have predicted that he will underwhelm.  However, the Cardinals literally have been without ALL five starters on their oline most of the year.  They have a couple guys starting who had been bagging groceries before getting the call.  I’m not sure they have better personnel.

He's also 4-5 as a rookie with a team that has been favored in 2 out of 14 games, is 4-4 in games he completed, and with a team that is 1-5 when any other QB has played a significant time. 

 

There's nothing definitive yet, but it's a pretty promising start to a career.

 

I find it hard not to be excited about the upcoming prospects of a team who overachieved its (admittedly negligible) expectations with an exciting, dynamic young QB, a top defense with most if not all likely returning next year, an abundance of salary cap room and draft picks. 

 

I continue to believe Allen’s completion pct is a concern, but I am very open to the idea that more time, and an upgraded roster will help.  The debate won’t be decided until next year when the Bills have invested in the roster like the Bears did for Trubisky this past offseason

Actually 4-4 in games he started and finished.  He left in the 3rd Q of the Houston game with the Bills trailing 10-3.  The Bills scored a FG on the drive on which he was injured to make it 10-6, then we know what happened afterwards.  QB wins and losses are solely based upon who started the game so it is what it is, but Allen had the Bills "in position" when he was hurt.

 

All of that nonsense aside, when you look at the talent around him on offense for Allen to be essentially a .500 QB in his rookie season is impressive (to me).  The "problem" with Josh Allen is that so many people are completely invested in him being a bust because they didn't like his "advanced stats" predictors that they will continue to look for the negatives until he wins an MVP or throws for 40 TDs with an 80% completion percentage.  It's sad.

 

The “problem” is that the stat predictors all said his completion pct would be low.  His completion pct is low.  It’s THE entire issue around Allen then and it still is.  It’s not as if people are nitpicking this issue.  This is what the concern was coming in.

Throwing it 40 yards downfield plus another 30 yards across the field from across his body? Kind of hard to put that on him. Could it have been better? Sure I guess but how many NFL QBs actually get that ball anywhere close?

 

Mahomes.  ?

 

If if anyone cares to refute these points, your argument carries more weight when it includes graphic depictions of big.     Glasses.......and voluminous........hair.

Hey my post about Allen having the #1 adjusted package on the league doesn't fudge numbers though. Between his and Joe webbs it's clearly a metric we should be using

There isnt a player in the NFL that makes a better pass there.  Maybe Rodgers?  Maybe Mahomes?  Not likely.  What happens instead for Rodgers  Graham makes that catch.  For Mahomes Kelce makes that catch.  Run back to the ball.  Catch the ball on the 2.  If you dont get in there is still 30 secs to spike it and get 2 more cracks at it.  What about the play before it were Jones drops a back shoulder fade that hit him in the stomach?

What makes me optimistic is not any stat or advanced metric.  He is the first Qb in a long time here that throws the team on his back and competes.  Allen does not have the aid of a good or above average Offensive line.  Allen does not have the aid of a competent running game.  He does not have a wealth of above average pass catchers.  How about the cliche a good QB makes those around him better?  Foster cleared waivers 10 weeks ago every other team in the NFL said no thank you.   He is now top in the NFL in yards per catch and has multiple 100 yard games.  McKenzie has been cut multiple times, thought of as a return man only.  After the last few weeks looks like a pretty nice slot wr.

I agree that there were things Clay should have done to make the catch.  However, for those saying the there was nothing wrong with the throw, I disagree.

Its wasnt I deal.  You do have to take into account context.  Full speed running straight, stopping and throwing to the right corner of the endzone from the far side numbers about 40 yards in the air without feet or shoulders square is a 12 on a scale of 1 to 10 difficulty.  Allen is one of 3 players in the sport who could pull that off.

I'm neither very old or very young, however I don't know who either women is.  I'm very selective with the entertainment I consume.

Katy Perry  that's who both women are.  

 

If you had a pre teen or teenage daughter or neighbors with them in the last decade you would know. 

 

She kissed a girl and she liked it.  

 

Did you watch the SB in 2015?

I think that is unfair to Fitz. Fitz didn't do it consistently but without much talent around him (especially at receiver) he took the team on his back and Fitzmagic'd us some wins. Obviously I think Allen has potential to do it better and consistently.... but Fitz played with fire, took the team on his back and led us down the field to win games too and he was as competitive as hell.

Oh, a pop singer, yeah, no wonder why.  I don't keep up on those...

 

Yeah, I watch every SB, but never watch the halftime show.

Nah, I know what Gif's are, I just didn't know what either of them had to do with football.
