Another Fan Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 (edited) I know he’s just doing what he’s supposed to do but I thought that was pretty cool he tried to tackle Jones and swipe the ball. He didn’t give up on the play and pout his head. Even before the second half started little things like that make me more and more confident in him.

I loved that he pursued the guy, and loved it even more that he tried to strip the ball out of his hands, which by the time he caught up with him would have been the only way of preventing a score. Can't say I've ever seen a QB do that before. Shame it didn't work ... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 (edited) Thanks for pointing this out OP. What a difference between his today versus those we’ve seen thrown by our other starters throughout the course of this year—previously it always felt like the proverbial nail in the coffin, but today it hardly registered in the overall flow of the game. More specifically, I knew we still would have chances to pull out the W, because JA brings big play unpredictability the likes of which haven’t been seen in Orchard Park since my avatar namesake, and that’s a fact ladies and gents! 5 total TD’s on his back, and this is his rookie floor, not ceiling? Mic drop. Edited December 31, 2018 by NoHuddleKelly12 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly was pissed and took it out on that guy!! I see the same fire from Josh and I love that!! Found it.

Another amazing thing that I don't think anyone's brought up is the fact that Josh Allen made 3 block attempts on running plays that were reversed. He didn't try to avoid the play or avoid the block he welcomed it. I'm telling you guys you probably already know this but this kid is special and he's ours for the next 10 years. He's only going to get better with each game. How stupid I was to think I wanted Rosen over him..... 13 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowboyBill Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I can’t find the video of it but Allen did the same thing in the 2016 MWC Championship game. The hit looked exactly like the one today but the DB fumbled it out of the end zone. Here is the blurb about it in the paper. Kazee stepped in front of an Allen pass at Wyoming’s 26-yard line and was off to the end zone. But Allen hit Kazee just before the goal line, knocking the ball loose for a touchback. https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sports/aztecs/sd-sp-azfoot-1204-story.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 What ppl need to understand is that Josh Allen is not just a quarterback He is an athlete He is highly competative He is a gamer He is passionate I really feel like this is one of the reasons we traded up....twice......and took Josh with a 7th overall pick despite he was so raw......he genuinely loves the game and is wired for it....you can just tell This is the best QB we have had under center since Jim Kelly.......and it really has been Jim Kelly/Josh Allen >>>>>>>>>>>>>everyone else 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FearLess Price Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I noticed that too. He reminds me of me. Never gives up. Has those leadership qualities. Hes the boom or bust prospect. I can relate to having a high ceiling and low floor 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the fact that Josh is an athlete and not just a human jugs machine but he needs more work with Palmer during this offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelingOnYouboty Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 It's nice showing heart and trying to make a play on the ball but I don't want my QB acting like a LB. Be like Brady and be a pansy sometimes LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I just like the peel back block to allow Shady to get to the LOS later in the game instead of losing like 10 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
