Josh Allen lost the game by himself

[dayman]

Hate to say it but today is the first game I am really starting to question if he'll ever be more than average at best (which certainly would have been good enough to win today).

 

Not trying to over react but he was absolute garage today and it's inexcusable. It's 2019 you are supposed to be better than that in year 2. 

[Steptide]

He was garbage at times. He also kept us in the game, as well as the defense. Allen didn't give up the blocked punt in the 1st quarter 

[Pbomb]

Pretty sure special teams, penalties and oline play helped too but carry on

[Matt_In_NH]

I live his competitiveness but He was really bad.   Sometimes you just gotta be willing to punt.    Three unforced errors for ints.   Two more sacks in fg range.   He won’t last long taking those shots either.   

[Beast]

He lost it by making multiple terrible decisions.

 

He says ***** won’t happen again but he goes back out there and does even more of the same.

[QCity]

Too much Hero ball, including that last run.

[Nextmanup]

Average to below average QB play probably wins this game for us today.

 

He was horrific.

I love Josh Allen but he didn’t keep us in the game.

 

At all.

[Chris from Rochester]

He had a bad game, he’s had 3 overall pretty good games. 3-1 in the first quarter of the season is a good start

Deep breathe. 

 

Hes going to have off weeks and the front office still owes him some more talent on offense around him.

 

im not sold on him but you can’t toss him aside any time he has a bad 2-3 quarters 

[Buffalo_Stampede]

He made too many bone head plays.

[ScramblinDan]

Never going to beat a good team with that many major mistakes.

[Dr.Sack]

3 TDs & 6 INTs after 4 games. On pace for 12 & 24. Not a good look. The TOs must come down. 

[Rew]

Allen seemed to better than Brady today.  Both went against a good defense and struggled.  Only difference being Brady knows how to throw unintentional grounding.  You have to give some credit to the defense on the other side.

[clayboy54]

Give the Pats some credit. Yes he was lost. This happens to young QBs when playing Bill Belichick teams.

Fixed that for you.

 

The concerning part is some of his worst plays were a function of horrific judgment, not physical mistakes.  

 

And it involved mistakes he was supposed to have "learned from" already.

 

 

[billsintaiwan]

The kid will win. You also just watched a hall of game qb have a miserable day. 

 

Yes, bad game. I see a future winner though and I wish he was out there in the fourth quarter.

Yes, no bad games in year 2.  Especially when you are playing a top defense, are under pressure, and your WRs are getting no separation for the first half.  

[Don Dokken]

Cool man thanks. He's what we've got. If he's in down the stretch I think we pull it out

The first 3 he probably got too much credit. Today he will get too much blame. 

[Another Fan]

He was bad but I hate to get on his case after that hit.  Screw the Pats 

[HappyDays]

Unfortunately I have to agree. We should have been leading at halftime and never looked back. Poor decisions and poor accuracy killed us over and over. He has to bounce back quickly or this season will go nowhere.

[Real McClappy]

He had a bad game no doubt.  I hope he learns from it, taking those 2 sacks in the first half that took us out of FG range on 1 and long kick/miss on the other can't happen. 

I won't even get into the INT's

[Warcodered]

He tried to do too much today, he needs to learn that sometimes you have to have drives that peter out. This was a game where he needed to play safe and bide his time for moments to strike.

How about starting by cutting Lee Smith and the punter,  Smith with 4 penalties and the punter just stinks

.needs to get out of this azzclown mindset about taking the game over himself......too many unforced errors based on poor decision making......

[No_Matter_What]

He did.

 

But he played against greatest mastermind in football and top 5 defense. He made brutal errors and did not have a chance to redeem himself in 4th quarter.

 

Let's hope he is able to learn from his mistakes.

[Bangarang]

He was horrible today. Every week we keep seeing bonehead throws and every week it’s the same “he’ll learn from that”. Good teams like the Pats will take advantage of those turnovers.

The opposing QB? Sucked too. 

[Herc11]

Did you guys forget we played the #1 defense in the league today?

 

 

[JerseyBills]

If he was average, we win , easily! 

Those 2 sacks were AWFUL.  1 made it a 49 yarder. 1 knocked us out of FG range. 

Throwing off back foot. Multiple , inexcusable ints  . 

Also the first time I'm thinking that he can't cut it and will never stop making these mistakes. They're unacceptable, inexcusable plays he's making. I feel like I've been duped

Except when they don't. Like today.

[qwksilver]

He just need to stop throwing it to Zay, on the 3rd one how is Zay not even in the air while the DB is? 

 

[Perry Turtle]

He held onto the ball way too long today, something he started doing last week.  His downfield accuracy was horrible.  Throwing into double-coverage off his back foot is inexcusable.  The sack before the half was a killer.

 

Not sure where he goes from here.  The first three games was spent trying to get him play within the context and rhythm of the offense.  Today he just blew that away.

 

And Duke Williams needs to take Zay Jones roster spot now.  Could have used a big red-zone receiver today.  Zay isn't that guy, and offers little else to the offense.

OL was outstanding for the most part. INT from Barkley at the end of game being one exception.

[phypon]

In my mind, the jury is still out on Allen.  However, he is a special talent AND he's a young QB.  Considering he just went up against the #1 D in the NFL, he's my QB.  That hit he took, I'm LIVID.  That was ridiculous.  We are just as good as the *expletive* *Pats.  F that team.  We are in good hands and have a good team.  We may have lost, but we proved that we have arrived.  Have faith everyone.  And, this is not a moral victory, this is a good enough effort to beat the cheats and the refs.  Sorry, still P-O'd about the hit...

[Buffalo716]

You know who else was bad

 

Tom effing Brady

[Livinginthepast]

He was bad no question. But Its this type of tough game that will build his character and force him to get better. I wanted him to get mad and win the game for us and he might have if it wasn't for the dirty hit. 

[PolishPrince]

How good did the "GOAT" Brady look today? Not playing favorites the Patriots have statistically an even better defense, AND better weapons on offense... Yet Brady and Allen both scored the same amount of points, obviously brady had 0 to do with blocked punt.

 

I love Allen, I am not ashamed, I am also not ashamed to say he played like crap today. He was terrible, looked like felt the need to make a huge play as soon as we went down for some reason. Belicheck also has a 17-1 record againsdt 1st and 2nd year starters - its Allen's 15th game. Allen has been starting in this league for more years than ALlen has games under his belt. Is he not allowed one bad game against the NFL's record setting top defense?
