SWATeam Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 We all know about the wow plays. What we need to see is making the average plays consistently. Im hopeful that will come but it’s not there yet. 11 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just an absurdly inaccurate statement. It's not even ball park close. It's simply put, mindless drivel.

Popular Post BillsFanSD Posted December 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2019 This board, man. It's like some people care more about being proved "right" about an argument from two years ago than actually seeing the team do well. If I were an Allen hater, I think it would be a lot more fun to just say "Boy am I glad my pre-draft analysis was wrong" and enjoy the 10-win season and playoff spot than walk around miserable all the time. 31 10 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember a few bad plays yesterday but no large chunks of yesterday's game or even this season where that is true. Yesterday against the NFL's best defense (can we stop forgetting that), he threw for 200 yards and rushed for about 50 more. The line was terrible. There was no running game. And they were still on the 8 yard line with a chance to tie it...when we went QB sweep, missed pass, and then 2 plays with zero blocking. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irv Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 (edited) I'm astonished at the cannon the guy has. I'm also astonished that an NFL caliber QB can't hit a wide open Beasly 15 yards away. Seems to be throwing off the back foot a lot. Edited December 22, 2019 by Irv 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Josh is making some of the same mistakes now that he made nearly 2 years ago. Are we sure he's progressing and "learning" ??? His completion % is more what I'd call regressing to the mean. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atlbillsfan1975 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 (edited) For those of us old enough to recall how Farve started out,(and i am not old, some of you got me by 25 years? ) this is kind of what Josh is like right now. Josh misses some very easy throws. Josh makes some throws every game that leave us saying ‘why can’t he do that every time’. Fact is, he will never do it every time. We just need the frequency to become more, which it is. Those two deep throws were big yesterday. That’s an entirely different aspect opposing D’s are going to have to consider now. Josh getting the deep ball touch back for playoffs could be big. Edited December 22, 2019 by atlbillsfan1975 9 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you impressed by the OL blocking which allowed pressure in his face for most of the game ?

Agreed. I hated the Singletary pick. Came on here and said so. I am so happy I was wrong about that dude. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how well some of the other young QBs would be doing in respect of 'regressing to the mean' if they had just had to play 3 of the best defenses in the NFL. I'd guess they would all be 'regressing to the mean', because that's some tough sledding. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might just be a coincidence but 2 are within walking distance of Marv Levys home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
