When he has one do you think it will be because he flipped some magical switch? The lack of a 300 yard game has been largely the product of game plan, particularly vs the Giants and Bengals. We have a Defense-oriented Head Coach... try to understand what inherently comes with that.

Prickly Pete Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) I have been wondering why Allen hasn't been getting attention for this. I never hear it mentioned by radio or TV guys.

buffalo2218 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 The problem with saying the Bills would have beat the Pats if Allen had finished is that by that standard, the Jets would have beat the Bills if Mosely hadn't got hurt.

Michael1962 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I can't recall seeing a quarterback with less concern about "padding his stats" than JA. Probably that is because we have won almost all of them and been in all of them but something tells me that even if we were to get blown out in a loss JA will never get the memo. As many have noted here, "he is a gamer". Like the person who wrote the "little dog who thinks he is a big dog" piece. Of course maybe JA is a big dog and the media and most other non-Homers think he is a little dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 No. I don't think we would be 6-0. But Josh does come alive in the 4th Qrtr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offsides#76FredSmerlas Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) This is a false positive. If he was playing well throughout the game he wouldn't have to make a comeback. The Bills defense is to good and we shouldn't have to continue coming back from deficits. I'm not knocking him, love this kid in only his 2nd year and I'm glad he has steal nerves to be able to put his mistakes behind him. Just hope he continues to progress so that he is ready to start burrying some of these teams. Love the attack style offense but Dabol could help him out with a few more runs during the game.

Scott7975 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I think we would be. Josh seemed to be coming alive when he went down. Doesn't really matter though. We played the team tough. What matters is we play them even better next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk if Allen would have been able to pull off the win or not Actually, I'd tend to believe both were possible if they'd happened that way. Since I'm a Bills fan, I'm actually more likely to believe the Jets would have won if Mosely hadn't gotten hurt. Or if Sam Darnold hadn't been kissing Fireman Ed at halftime. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I think If Josh isn’t hurt they win that game. NE’s d was gassed. Bills could of used running by Gore and Josh to win the game easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never hear it mentioned by radio or TV guys. Allen is great in the clutch. Everyone will know soon enough. Especially his NFL leading 4th quarter QB Rating. That's probably even more impressive than the actual GW drives and 4th quarter comebacks. I know some like to argue that if he played better the first three quarters he wouldn't have these 4th QC comeback and GW drives. Sure, that can be true, but it is still a nice stat for Allen. The alternative would be him having the exact same stats but not pulling out the victories in the end. Which would not be a good feeling at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is a positive when you consider the alternative. The alternative being Josh continuing to struggle into the 4th quarter. Or even simply having nearly identical stats in the 4th quarter and overall but simply having one or two plays go sideways that prevent the team from winning the game. I'll gladly take whatever "clutchness" Josh seems to have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 That would have been great, but I believe someone placed that Boston Herald article where both the snapper screwed up with a low snap, and the ST Coach not adjusting after a near miss against the Jets and the Giants with the Gunners adjusting in when there was max penetration planned was a huge miss. I do think Allen could have pulled it off and Brady looked absolutely terrible in that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, he did.Long as he can continue to make better decisions and not turn the ball over he will be fine. The last game his decision making was a lot better and hope it continues from here on out. But yeah the D was huge but that's what we have come to expect from a MCD defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt a little bit better about Allen's performance after Darnold's horrendous performance against that defense (and Falk, Fitzy, Jones's, etc). Hell, even Goff only put up three points against them in the Superbowl where he had a QBR of 16.4. We'll see how Mayfield does this week.
