Josh Allen mic’d Up!


Chandler#81

Recommended Posts

Josh is a great leader which bodes really well for the future.  

 

I also love how he has such an even keel...although he did seem a little frazzled in that game with the intentional grounding and the pick. Overall, however, he seems well grounded. 

 

Love the kid!

He makes some dumb decisions but the also picks himself up and shoulders past them and produces. 

 

Eliminate the dumb decisions and we should be very happy for a long time

Really enjoyed that, man. They should have him mic'd up every week. 

 

I loved that quote from Lee Smith... something along the lines of "I've known you enough to know it's not about you when we do well, so it's not about you when we mess up. It's on US."

 

This team truly is a family and the guys have each other's backs!

Guys like Lee Smith and Pat Dimarco keep getting spots because they say stuff like this when nobody else thinks to- encouragement from teammates > encouragement from coaches. 

 

They’re culture builders.

If I was head coach I wouldn't have said a word to him after the pick.  Not a word.  Talk about next drive and keeping your head up. 

 

We don't need another Joe Ferguson head hanger.

 

He needs to have a short memory, not be told something he already knows over and over and over again.   

Beating a dead horse can mess with a young dude's psyche

i'll admit I was sort of annoyed by the smith signing and the fact that he end up sticking around through the cuts.... that was the naïve fan in me, obviously. its fairly obvious what he offers now in the huddle, sideline and locker room. 

 

he's definitely leaving his stamp on the team for the future.

yup. he already knows it was inexcusable. saying anything about it in-game literally helps nothing in that scenario. what an answer by allen with 4 minutes left. it was quite literally all him via passing and rushing all the way down to the 1 on that drive.

That was a great camera angle on the Knox play.


Other than that, this felt kind of tame to me.  There had to be way more sound bites but I'm wondering if it was stuff they couldn't air

The premise is fantastic. It’s John Murphy’s terrible voice and play calling. He doesn’t know when to be excited and is terrible with Down and distance and yards being gained on the play. He’s been at this for a decade and still sucks.

Look, sometimes moments like this are the fuel to get BETTER and you can't necessarily take it as brooding over a turnover. Leaders have setbacks but you can't hide initial reactions, but you can take different paths for how you DEAL with the setbacks. Josh'll be just fine. I refer you all to Week 1 and Week 3 fourth quarters.

I think back to Kelly’s first couple years here and he did the same (and had the benefit of playing in the USFL for two years prior). 

 

I believe Josh will mature in the same manner.

Gotta love it.  By the same token gotta love that Josh takes responsibility for it... as long as he's not sitting around with some hangdog look and pouting about it there's nothing wrong with him saying "that's on me".

incredible.

 

Anyone that supports the Bills, but doesn’t love Josh Allen is nuts. 

Folks sometimes question why Lee Smith and Pat DiMarco have jobs....they are leaders--they also wiped out their guys on the Gore 1 YD game winning TD...

I love the guy, he is exciting.

 

Cheers to Lee Smith.

Lee Smith's comment to Josh just shows me how much Josh is loved by his teammates.  Shares credit, takes blame.....Good that he has guys like Lee in his ear.

Yeah, the "Touchdown! Touchdown! Touchdown Buffalo" is very lame. It doesn't sound natural, like he's forcing himself to sound over excited because that's how he thinks he should be. Pat Summerall sounded like he was talking to the pigeons in the park and he was great (I know TV is different to radio but still). I mean, I don't hate Murphy (though I do find him very arrogant) but when you compare him to Van, he's pretty *****

Absolutely agree. Leading men is a difficult and almost impossible task at times. There’s a delicate balance between accountability and holding others accountable. 

 

Im genuinely curious which QB’s all time developed that skill set quickest, and how does it translate to championships. I’m not even sure i know who the great leaders have been?

I liked what he said before that "i love you like a little brother"

I’ve never minded Murphy, and thought a lot of the criticism he took was unfair due to simply being average and having to follow in Van Miller’s legendary footsteps, but the complete lack of excitement on the Knox catch and run was brutal.
