Josh Allen isn't making any D coordinators worried about that. He will complete a couple per game that go for 25 yards but that's more the receiver getting YAC Expand Josh Allen is 9th in the league in "Intended Air Yards per Attempt" The issue isn't that we aren't trying. The issue is we aren't connecting on them. https://nextgenstats.nfl.com/stats/passing/2019/all#average-intended-yards 1

Ramza86 Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 I dont mind him learning how to become a game manager. Because a great QB needs to become whatever is required to win each week. Last year he couldnt hit a 5 yard slant. He has drastically improved his short passing game this off season. A raw kid like this learned something in one offseason. It at least shows hes coachable and can improve his game. Honestly i think we are at the point where just time will make him a better QB. Hopefully he has the right coaches to get him there.

Would you do that against a team that can beat you over the top? You need to have that threat they if they getting close the LOS that you can beat them over the top. We aren't doing that see they keep stacking.

I haven't seen that commented on. Expand Yeah, Allen's spoken on it before. He and Daboll have sat down several times to go through the playbook and try to find what they think is gonna work for them. I don't think they completely get rid of plays, they might just put it on the backburner and use it when it seems like it'd work on a certain opponent or something.

Even if Allen is bad, there will still be people who will argue otherwise (like they did for EJ and Tyrod) and call you a hater. It won’t be until the team moves on that they will finally accept that said QB was in fact not good. Expand So in response to the question about the player, you made a comment about the fans. You can see why that's not as clear as you intended.

Expand I nee to go back and watch some of the earlier games where he came on in the fourth quarters, what plays were called, etc. Seems to me he's much more decisive in those cases.

Expand I haven't looked at the stats, but my guess is that Josh took more downfield shots last year, thus completed more downfield shots last year. This offense has missed Foster. I don't know what the hell is going on with him. Is it that he's lazy? Is it that McDermott just doesn't like him? His lack of snaps is perplexing to me. Whatever the root of it is, the result is that Allen doesn't have a deep threat if he's not on the field. Allen improved at the short to intermediate passes. That's where games are won. Even by the best QBs/teams. If Daboll would call a game that makes sense and properly utilize the players who ARE on the field, I think we'd see this offense be a lot more productive. Daboll is the biggest problem on offense ... by a long shot. 2

All this smug, too-cute, multi TE sets where everyone is shoulder to shoulder like the 1902 NY Giants is just the dumbest thing in this day and age. Spread the O out, get Foster on the edge, and complete a couple passes early, stop the safeties from cheating up

So you're going to be firm that it has nothing to do with Allen being able to beat teams over the top....50% is Lee Smith and the other 50% is Knox?
