The truth is that the Quarterbacks are the stars on those two teams. Allen was majorly hurt by his receivers last year.... but there are plenty of JAGs catching passes on the Chiefs and, especially, the Texans too. Would you say that Allen is working with comparable talent at wideout as Chiefs/Texans? Do you believe having talented at wideout improves quarterback play?

Do you believe having talented at wideout improves quarterback play? I think Hopkins and Hill are #1 receiver talents and Josh doesn't have one of those. After that the rest of the receivers on those teams are JAGs (well except for Sammy who is always hurt). The reason people think Will Fuller and Hardman and all these other guys are good is because they have Watson and Mahomes throwing them the football. I think talented wideouts make a Quarterback's jobs easier. I don't think they make them better Quarterbacks. There are some QBs you have to surround with top flight playmakers and there are some QBs who make things move with whatever you give them. Personally I think Watson and Mahomes are both in the latter category. Maybe Allen will be too at some point. I am not sure he is there yet. And again, for the millionth time.... I like where Josh is. He has been pretty good this season except the Pats game. Edited October 13, 2019 by GunnerBill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we disagree strongly on Fuller then. Fuller is JAG. He is made by Deshaun Watson and his with and without Watson career numbers could not support that view any more strongly than they do. I think Allen would look better throwing to Hill and Kelce. I don't think Mahomes would look much different throwing to John Brown and Cole Beasley.

No. He wouldn't. That is not what I am arguing. What I am arguing is Mahomes would find ways to use what he had. He isn't going to turn Hardmen into Tyreek Hill either but the other week when he was his #1 wideout he produced a monster game with him. 2 minutes ago, GoBills808 said: And he’s been one of Allen’s main receivers for his career thus far. Yes. Nobody is arguing Josh hasn't been hurt by his receivers. What I am arguing is there are some Quarterbacks who make things happen pretty much whoever they have out there and some who need pieces. Mahomes and Watson I think are in the former category. I hope Allen ends up there and he might well do.... what he did with Foster and McKenzie down the stretch last season gives room for hope in that regard.... but at the moment I think Josh needs pieces.
