Yeah, well has he had a 300 yard game yet?

 

Who cares????

 

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.

Allen is great in the clutch.

 

Everyone will know soon enough.

 

 

 

 

 

Because he plays for Buffalo.  Right now the national theme is Buffalo isn’t as good as their record

Ugh....

 

Guess I'll add this to my long list of posts where I should have written, "sarcasm included"...

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. Idk if Allen would have been able to pull off the win or not

It is truly just belief. I think that is why the poll is asking "do you think"  and not "can you guarantee". 

 

Edit: I re read the question.  WE HAVE BEEN DOOPED!!!!

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.

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.

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.

IF he hadn’t gotten injured against NE, and he had managed to lead a comeback win.... Then this team being 6-0 with comeback victories would be a national narrative.

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.
