Big Blitz Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 My guess 100% chance he's out week 5. Because we have a bye week 6 giving him 3 full weeks to get right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherlock Holmes Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) 40 minutes ago, LSHMEAB said: My hunch is that he's not playing next week. When you see an apparent concussion that violent, you have to put football to the side momentarily and consider the kid's long term well being. **** it, let's just call the press conference today. Following in Luck's footsteps Josh Allen has decided to retire quoting fan concerns over his health as his main motivation. Wouldnt that be our "Luck" when we find a franchise QB with a GOAT cannon and possible GOAT scrambling abilities?

Yea he’s wrapped but if the big athletic guy carries another couple yards it could be game changing so I’m going to stop him in his tracks Here you go if you want to rewatch . It is a straight helmet to helmet. Edited September 29, 2019 by YoloinOhio 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Just now, NoSaint said: I didn’t say it was a clean hit. I said I thought his intention was to not allow another foot gained. In that context there were few ways to stop him in his tracks the way they were coming together. its still a bad hit but maybe I’m giving the guy too much credit and he was focused on the injury. I'm not saying his intent was to injure. I'm saying that Josh was held up and he chose to lower his head to hit Josh in the helmet. He could have gone lower, he could have hit with shoulder. To me he was head hunting. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Player Available Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Good news for Barkley fans then. His career quest for that elusive 3rd league win. Continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knew it was Allen, knew it was the QB, took the big shot at his helmet and got up all proud of himself. And, he should be, he was told all week if you can get a shot on Allen running go for it! And if anyone is confused about the intent, see the KVN personal foul on Barkley. NE clearly made multiple attempts to injure both QBs. That's who they are and how they play, and the NFL let them get away with it scot-free today, as usual. 14 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 I think the hit was very avoidable. Looked like a dirty hit to me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biLLyBuFFs Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 not to sound callous, but the kid did that to himself. He tried running loosely around dudes trying to take that shot.. he HAS to understand smart football situations in the NFL. he'll last about as long as a Kolb mat slip if he keeps doing that ish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 1 minute ago, YoloinOhio said: Here you go Once JAs helmet starts going down, and given jones position on him... there was almost no legal strike zone to truly stop forward progress. I dont doubt he wanted wanted to lay lumber but it’s also late in the game and if I recall was relatively near the first down marker. If Allen drags a guy 3 yards extending a drive... it’s an absolutely ugly hit and needs to be penalized but it’ll be tough to eliminate from the game completely.

LOL he could have hit him literally anywhere from the neck down, he just decided to go high and try to knock him out of the game.

FLbills Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Sorry if it's been stated, but JA returned from injury last year and had a better half of the season. Let's hope that's the case again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tricky part in live time is josh going down and to the inside. Lowering a shoulder into his chest on his original path puts a helmet into his helmet once he starts going low and inside of him. again, not arguing it’s clean, or a good hit but I think a tougher spot than some acknowledged in a split second with a lot of moving pieces and a goal of ending forward progress 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoBills808 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Trying to explain that hit as anything but deliberate intent to injure is ridiculous. These guys are NFL athletes, they’ve played football at the highest level for a long time...that was 100% cynical hit to the head. The ‘where was he s’posed to hit him?’ stuff is BS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
