No one carries an offense like Josh Allen (except R. Wilson)

In week 1, 91 % of the Bills offense ran through Josh Allen

 

In comparison 84% ran through Lamar Jackson, 79% through Kyler Murray. Russell Wilson was 91.6%

 

Allen  Passing plus rushing = 369 Bills total = 404 369/404 = 91.3%
Jackson 320/377 = 84.8%
Murray 321/404 = 79.4%
Wilson 351/383 = 91.6%

Any team with limited nonQB rushing will show that. Speaks to Bills’ rushing struggles with Singletary and Moss more than than anything else

 

for example in MNF, Daniel Jones had more than 97% (301 / 308). Speaks more to Barkley’s rushing struggles than saying Jones is the offense

Daniel Jones had 301 yards.  The Giants had 291.  He literally had 103.4% of their total offense.

Unless you’re going to deduct the sack yards from his passing (which is what’s done with net total yards), you’re comparing apples to oranges.

 

Jones had 301 of their 308 offensive yards. Not good for the G-MEN.

You may have identified the reason Allen had to carry the offense.  Does not change the fact that he is carrying the offense.

Will be interesting to see A) How we run the ball against the Dolphins, and B) how the 49ers run against the Jets.

 

49ers offensive strengths play right into the Jets defensive strength.  If the Jets had any semblance of an offense, that would be somewhat of a sleeper game.

That’s not correct, nor is it the way OP calculated his stats.  I’m using the exact same method he did.

The game sure has changed... this way of looking at it is a little disingenuous as it over credits the QB  for WR RAC

People here wouldn't like the week 1 efficiency rating results, but a couple other interesting tidbits:

 

Allen had 63 total attempts in week 1. That's 6 more than the next most (Matt Ryan) and 22 more than the median (41 for Russ Wilson and Dwayne Haskins).

 

Allen was 4th overall for total yards gained by a QB behind Matt Ryan, Phil Rivers, and Aaron Rodgers.

Yes, it is correct. Total team yards are net yards. Otherwise the Giants would have to have had negative rushing yards aside from Jones; they didn’t.

See my post from about 1 hour before yours. Not the original post.

Some young QBs boom, most bust. Allen booms and busts all in the same game. If he doesn't fumble twice, hits an open Knox in the corner of the end zone and John Brown I'm pretty sure we 50 burger the Jets. That would be a truer reflection of the performance gap separating the two teams yesterday than the final score. 

Allen's physical ability is such that he can be a dominating presence. After Cashman went out yesterday he Jets lost the guy who was supposed to spy Allen. And of course running the ball Allen is a load. But I don't think he should be our #1 RB. If Daboll keeps running him like he did yesterday I fear it's only a matter of time before he gets injured. He runs with reckless abandon. If he goes down for any length of time the season is almost certainly over. 

As a player in development for playing the most demanding position maybe the Bills don't see him as yet ready to take full control and and make the best use of the talent that now surrounds him. IMO that needs to change as the season progresses if the Bills are to maximize their chances for success. Few of their opponents will be as pathetic as the Gase led Jets. Theirs is the 10th most difficult strength of schedule. 

On the other hand Cam is somehow still getting it done with his legs so who knows.
