Imagine needing a comeback against a historically bad 0-5 time. 

 

I swear, some of you would praise Allen for a comeback if the Bills beat Texas Tech by a point.

Was completely Allen's fault they were down.  U are right.  Not really.  We are in the situation we are in and he mans up and gets it done.   Why is that bad?

its 2019 and it was a below average performance for a qb against a historically bad defense. 
he should be dominating these types of teams. But he doesnt. Takes bad sacks. Airmails wide open players and isnt seeing the whole field well. 
 

i think some of you are just soo accustomed to watching bad qb play that mediocre play is like a breath of fresh air. 
 

A-excellent 

 

B- above average

 

C- average

 

d-below average

 

 F-fail 

 

what about todays game is above average? Its 2019 and our qb can barely get 200 against a historically bad defense at home!  
its ok to be critical guys.

Think people had very unrealistic expectations today based on just looking at the Dolphins 0-5 record.  Lot of frustration from the first half drives stalling out into fg attempts.  Wasnt thrilled with some of the play calls in the first half and as a team the Bills made a ton if mistakes.  I give Josh a B+. On the plus side no turnovers and had some nice sustained drives  Being nitpicky I would have loved for him to land one of those killshots downfield. 

 

Next week much tougher game

I actually thought today they came pretty close to taking over the game. We had 3 straight good looking drives to start the game off. They all stalled in field goal range thanks to a couple untimely penalties and drops. Our first drive of the 2nd half was 98 yards for a TD and a 2 point conversion. They only punted once in the 2nd half when the game was still in question. We pretty much had our way with the Dolphins defense and moved the ball at will more often than not. What killed us was we only scored FGs on the first 3 drives. And the defense kept allowing long drives that kept the offense off the field. If the defense played the way we expected this would have been a blowout. The offense to me looked as good as it has all year, as it should have. This was the first game where we couldn't just expect the defense to win it for us, and the offense delivered right when it needed to.

We played the 0-5 DOLPHINS and mustered 3 FG’s in the first half and that’s almost taking over the game??? They have the worst defense in points allowed, yards allowed, passing TD’s allowed. Am I taking crazy pills?

There are people in this thread that are either trolling or have no idea what they're watching.

 

That is all.

I watched a wide open John Brown waving his arms BEGGING for the ball past the sticks and Allen stared down Knox and checked it down short of a first down right in front of him.

Getting out played by Ryan Fitzpatrick while playing against the worst defense in the NFL IS Allen’s fault.

Two Tds and no turnovers is above average. 32 TDs and 0 INT over a season would be by far the best season in the history of the league.

Nice D today huh?

 

Looked great allowing Fitz to put up 21 points.

 

Good thing we have the best 4th quarter QB in the NFL. The guy that went 10/11 in the 2nd half and lead the offense to 2 4th quarter TDs 

 

Like I said: scoreboard.

 

Now cry about it some more

Yeah the D didn’t play great. Not sure how that makes the worst defense in the NFL good, but it is a pretty strawman.

No offense but if you think he was outplayed by Fitzpatrick you might not understand what you’re watching.

 

That was the subject of my first post in this thread.

 

Oddly, all I said was that some folks didn't know what they're watching. Didn't say who. Didn't say what those folks thought. Interesting that Orton felt compelled to reply huh?

Show me where I said that Miami's D was good. You are the one straw-manning.

Meh.

 

Drives stalling and not executing on offense is not taking over a game. It’s not a good looking drive if they are settling for FGs. And even after the 98 yard drive, they had a 4 and out next possession. It took a Tre White strip fumble to seal it. 
 

They needed to come out and smack the shiz out of the Dolphins and put the game out of reach. They never really did that and until they do it will be up to the defense.

If you were at the game you would see he misses the open receiver waiving his arms and checks it to an underneath route. Happened about 8!times this game. Then to win in this league you have to be able to complete a pass over 30 yards and he can’t. So the mentality of your ignorance is astonishing. Know and watch the game. Much more to it than rooting from the heart.

I get the Bills have hurt you in the past but calling me ignorant probably wont make you feel better.

You brought up our defense when I said Allen played the worst defense in the NFL. Definition of a strawman.

We should have been able to mostly move the ball at will against a historically bad defense, and we did. We didn't finish drives until the 2nd half and the defense wasn't doing them any favors. But they moved the ball. They had 6 yards per play which is good. I'm not saying the offense is elite or anything, but they sustained drives for the most part.

10/11 in second half with 2 tds.  Will take that all day every day.

Orton believes that games end at halftime 

Just now, BringBackOrton said:

Unfortunately JP Tebow has thrown 10 INT’s on the year.

 

I'm now convinced that you're joking

Tape doesn’t lie. Just like Allen’s tape doesn’t lie.

Are you missing the fact that the Bills' defense gave up more points to the phins than any defense has all year? Are we blaming that on the offense as well? Where is the phins' offense ranked, again?

 

If anything the way the phins ran all over the Bills is the most concerning thing that came out of today. Other teams will take note. Not to mention, the fact the phins exposed Wallace and our defense didn't ever adapt to it.

I'm a huge fan, HUGE of his, but he had me scratching my head at times, while again, having some clutch moments. He gets B-  from me. 


I've posted this many times before and will do so again: I hope the constant negative posters watch other games. Even great QBs have inaccurate throws, bad reads, miss open guys, etc. If you only watch highlights you don't exactly get a complete picture... Stop expecting perfection out of Allen or the team!

I agree, and this has actually been a theme all year. Too many drops and penalties that kill good looking drives. My point is that the offense moved the ball well overall. But they need to finish.

Wallace had a rough game  That tall wr on the Dolphins tore Wallace up on in breaking routes

While it was my reaction, it was because of déjà vu. Not the first it has happened. Last year they could get blown out one or two games then come back super stiff. Weird almost.

Oh I agree, just meant that’s part of taking over a game, finishing. 
 

Anyways, BILLS WIN! And I thought Allen had a very good second half.

We allowed 3.6 YPC. And even IF we got ran all over, that doesn’t change the fact the Bills were 3-10 on third down AND Joshy boy completed 6 passes in the first half.

I don't think you're using your grading key correctly.....using QBR, Allen had the 8th highest rating this week (if you remove the punters and subs who threw it fewer than 7 times).

Better than Goff, Bridgewater, Wilson.  If you want to make a big deal out of it being against the Phins, that's fine but  a bit unfair.  Their D seemed to be fairly decent today...

Yeah except he isnt even close to that. 
 

you can be critical of play. But people giving him above average grades is insane. 
 

he was missing throws and not seeing the field well. The team won and thats great but that is not an above average performance. what do you guys consider average?
