It rates throwing monkey crap their way. #ProveThemWrongJosh! It is ridiculous which is why I don't watch or listen to this stuff...I watch the games and know what I see.

No other team in 2017, 2018 & 2019 (and the common denominator is the HC) has not passed for 300 yards in at least 1 game/yr....... 47 games & counting (46 under this coach). I suspect it's a McDermott thing. I mean Pittsburgh was literally playing their 3rd stringer, and he was much more aggressive than our QB. It was a disaster, but it still shows how we constantly have the training wheels on Allen and it's getting a bit ridiculous. He usually plays his best in the 4th quarter in tight games or when we're behind and they have to open things up. These next two games mean next to nothing. If we keep trying to win games 17-14, we'll know for sure that it's a McDermott thing and the odds of ever changing it will be slim to none. If there was ever a time to be aggressive, it's the next two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's he's done there to keep that team in the thick of the playoff hunt, with their 2nd and 3rd string QBs, and Connor and Juju banged up a lot of the year has been incredible.

Methinks this should find its way to Josh... Absolutely ridiculous! ESPN has been compromised by its extremely far left rhetoric.

This Development excuse is cr$p..... He is 25 games in & they have yet to give him the keys to the car. Allen is their future. He has shown the ability to win in the 4trh quarter. Time to see what he can do for 60 minutes. Sorry, Football is about winning real games not your Fantasy League. Josh and the rest of the team have 10 wins and 4 losses, pretty straight forward I think. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Josh Allen has improved his game in many areas. There are some areas where he still struggles. His footwork on deep passes is still inconsistent, which leads to accuracy issues. He is not a quick decision maker, which leads to vulnerability to blitzing and a heavy pass rush. If he can't fix those, it lowers his ceiling. I don't think there is any reason to believe he can't grow in those areas, but until he does, there are going to be detractors out there. And, yes, some of them are blowhards. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other NFL team thinks every week that 17 points will win the game. Sorry to interject a fact here, but the Bills actually average 20.8 ppg. And when we have been limited to 17 ppg, McDermott usually says something about "not scoring enough points. need to score more points." In this case, against the team leading the league in QB pressures and blitzes, he may have made an exception. The league average is 23.6 ppg, just so you know. An offense averaging 14 points per half or 28 points per game would be 4th in the league, tied w/ KC and just ahead of Dallas.

kbarrettb Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Josh Allen needs to be better. You can’t keep putting up terrible completion games while throwing under 200 yards and expect people to think you’re a good quarterback. This defense and coaching staff is great. Josh is the only thing that can make this team a super bowl contender. And the way he’s playing right now he is not. Be better Josh and this team can go places.

Certainly Josh Allen needs to be better. He knows it. I'm curious about one point, and not strictly addressed at you - there are several who express a similar POV. The Bills currently lead the league in dropped passes, and those are a conservative metric - passes which could be completed with "reasonable effort". We have small WR who are unable to haul in the "jump balls" or even the slight overthrow catches that other WR make routinely. We have a starting TE who drops one out of five targets - 20%. We have a much improved OL, but they either need a piece or they need to gel - our best blocking TE has a large number of false start penalties, and we're 22 in the league in sack % DESPITE a QB with good mobility and escapability. But the focus is all on the QB - he needs to be better. Why is that? Daboll and McDermott both routinely say it takes 11 guys to make an offensive play. They're not wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
