Allen's 4th fourth quarter comeback


Hebert19

Recommended Posts

Tied for most in league since beginning of last year.   

 

Now I wasn't a fan of a few throws out there but he was fairly accurate...went through progressions well...and when the game in on the line he's pretty clutch.  

 

Should be 5 if not for clay drop.

People also fail to realize that was only Allens 12 NFL start. Not bad at all.

Allen just has a hard time getting any credit with the national media and even with many Bills fans.

 

12 games in and he is doing ok. Definitely an athlete and a leader.  He just needs to consistently deliver the ball and cut down on errors.   Remember a young Brett Farve.  Same kind of player and he did ok.   

 

One fumble was on a sack, he needed to protect the ball.  The second fumble was a terrible snap, he never got the ball. 

 

The Pick -6 was on Beasley.  The other pick was a batted ball - bad bounce.  He had two other "pickable" balls that fortunately  the Jets missed.

 

Yet he had a 308 yard game with 2 TDs.   He threw for 270 yards and one TD, he ran for 38 yards and a TD.  Despite most things going wrong for three quarters he LEADS HIS TEAM to a road win when down 16-0.    That should be the story but with the majority of the media will likely be more focused on his errors. 

 

He slightly outplayed Darnold while in a more difficult environment

Great comeback. Accuracy looks better. Decision making mostly looks better but still a work in process. We really dont know if he was making the proper reads or not. Arm is still top 3 in NFL.

Two worst throws were the INT called back by penalty and the dropped INT at goal line. The pick six was not on him. The batted ball I dont know. He threw it right at the guys outstretched arms. Should have not made that throw.

lot of those batted balls were bad play design by both teams Throwing a quick pass into the flat into a unblocked pass rusher  is not the very sensible Felt like the defenses were a little further ahead in execution and design today.  Actually lot of sloppy offensive play in many games today

I never saw an issue with his accuracy. Mostly just his decision making.

In 12 starts. If that isn’t firing people up that we are not out of it I don’t know what will

Clay did fail to play that ball correctly.

We learned last year - players named Clay cannot catch.

Kudos to you for sticking around in a Bills forum after what must've been a heart rending loss on your end. :)

It was, but I will be here no.matter what!

Probably linked elsewhere, if so, my apologies. Added apologies for the paywall.

“We sat in the locker room (at half time) thinking this is the worst that it could have gone and we’re sitting here down six points,” Allen said. “We understood that we still had a shot in this game. Nothing was going to be too crazy to overcome. We were only down one score.”

Things turned in the Bills’ favor at the start of the fourth quarter. That’s when Allen went 8-for-10 passing for 102 yards and a touchdown. He also ran twice for 11 yards and a score. In the first three quarters, Allen completed 17 of 27 passes for 152 yards and the four turnovers. He became a different quarterback in the final quarter.

“He has that kind of moxie and just grit, you know what I mean?” Morse said. “This league is built for guys like him who when they’re backed into a corner, they don’t back down. He led us. If it wasn’t for him, we wouldn’t be in the winner’s circle.”

“He’s about as competitive as they come,” Patrick DiMarco said. “He’s one of the most competitive guys I’ve ever been around. He didn’t blink. He came over and said, ‘Hey, guys, that’s on me. I’ll get my ***** together. Let’s keep swinging.’ We have the utmost confidence in him to finish the game and sure enough, he did.”

I know it's the kind of stuff they're, "supposed to say," but these are some nice words from a guy like Morse.

Hey...I hate Darnold.  I think he's going to be a good QB once he gels with Gase's offence.  I really hope your defense stays aggressive and especially beats up Tom Brady this year.

Morse's words  like "grit" and "winners circle" echo a throwback sound. Reminds me of a 9-7 game played in the 70's.
