PolishPrince Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I am a self proclaimed Josh Allen lover... I honestly dont ever think he will be perfect or amazing like a Brees or a Brady or a Manning.... but this is what I love about him. He is gritty, gutsy and determined. Kudos young man, any QB's would have melted down... but he stepped up when he was needed most. PS: I think its a travesty that he gets credit for 4 turnovers this game. IMO he gets credit for 1.5 - not great still... the pick 6 not his fault. The first fumble, I will give to him even though Dawkins whiffed - Allen could have tucked it instead of fighting. The tipped INT I give him a .5 for. Darnold had more tipped passes at line than Allen, but Allen's happened to go to defense. The hand off fumble, Morse got shoved into him - I dont even think he touched it..... Way to effing fight Allen, Smoke, Singletary and the whole defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I wasn't calling for it, but I think there is a real chance Barkley may actually be pretty good. And though he ended up putting a lovely shine on it, this was a turd of a game for Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsfanAZ Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Even if the Bills would have lost, I still want Allen playing. It is only the start of his second year....and he didnt play in all the games his rookie season. The pick 6 I dont put on Allen. Looked like Beasley was trying to catch it in his belly instead of hands and it looked like it bounced off his thigh. The fumble from Morse, Allen didnt even get the ball. Yes Allen still had some balls that should have been INTs. If the Bills are losing games at the end of the season because Allen cant do anything or throwing stupid passes then the heat will really be on him and the Bills may have to keep an eye on college QB's. Bottom line is that unless Allen is injured or the Bills are ahead by 30, he needs to be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSHMEAB Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Allen continues to demonstrate the traits that make many skeptical, but that kind of fight is exactly what you want to see from the QB position. He doesn't appear at all rattled by big moments. So it was interesting in that for much of the game, his flaws were on full display and will be dissected by analytics. But in the end, he looked like the guy many believe he WILL be. I didn't want any moral victories. Once "we" cut the lead to 6 and got a stop, I didn't want to see an @Miami 2018 MORAL victory. Brown got open and Allen delivered. That sequence also featured a negative down and distance which didn't seem to fluster him at all. Without that kind of defensive performance, none of it was possible. We'd likely be talking about everything he did wrong. BUT. He came through when the opportunity presented itself. He has to play better and more consistent if he's going to be the guy, but there are most certainly positives to take away from his performance. Good JA. Terrible JA. Saw it all. And a W is a W. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMF2006 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 The turnovers were not his fault the first int went off Beasley the fumble was good Jets pressure and he didn't have time to secure the ball The second fumble was on the Center getting blown up just as he snaps it and the second int was tipped/ blocked at the line. Just a whole series of misfortunes. How about that 4th Quarter performance by 17? The kids a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Why would anyone call for Barkley? Of Allen's turnovers, one was a fluke that hit off Beasley's shin, one was a batted ball that just happened to pop into the air. He was moving the ball well and was always poised. It never even occurred to me to take him out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ManRaid Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I was at the preseason comeback game last week (and predicted it to my dad after the fumble that made everyone leave), and knew this one was coming too. Jets were simply not the better team today, and it was only that close due to those 4 fluke first half turnovers. I knew things would turn around when Devin actually got to touch the ball.

DuckyBoys Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Need Allen in and healthy for all 16 games McDermott seems to have decided to open things up and we will soon know if Josh is the going to be the long term answer or not. Big comeback win for him today Hopefully things go smoother going forward without some of these flukey turnovers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yungmack Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 What did Allen do in the first half that was so bad he should have been pulled? One fumble looked to me like it should be attributed to Morse and both interceptions were "lucky bounce" types. Some days those things go your way, sometimes they don't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to secure that ball and not try the stiff arm 3. the snap is fumbled before the defender is even out of this stance, 4. He threw the ball right at a defender for the tip. Did he look good in the 4th, yes. He isn't absolved of how bad he looked for 3 quarters and I wish people would stop being so black and white here. Let's see what he looks like against good teams and if he can string some good games together. The 4th with Mosely gone was promising. Play calling was better too.
