My favorite play was the TD pass to Brown late in the 4th. On the previous play there was a clear miscommunication and you could see Josh gesticulating that Brown should have flattened out his route and on the next play he does just that and they score. It’s like Josh got in the huddle and said, “Same thing, on two.” That was the ultimate display of confidence, especially because it came on third and long.

He's not going to do this every game but I believe he'll have a 500 yard game. They have the playmakers to make this possible, Diggs especially.

 

Two weeks in a row he's around 250 yards at the half. He'll eventually have a lucky "hit everything week" and post a 5 TD on bombs, 2 on runs style GOAT performance. What the first Jets game could have been, without the turnovers, and the offense staying hot to start the second half.

I am skimming through other teams' forums just to see if their fans have started to realize, 3 years late, that development is a thing, and it was happening with Josh all along. 

They are doubling down on his inaccuracy, and that you can't win with the kid.

This will still be the talking point after Allen's 3rd SB and MVP

There were two throws Allen made to Diggs that looked like they could have been intercepted, but Allen threaded the needle and Diggs made the plays. I haven’t seen a Bills QB make those types of plays in nearly 20 years. What a difference it makes to have a legitimate QB with a good compliment of WR’s.

Now I want to see him be good two games in a row, be clutch, throw a good deep ball, show some touch, and not turn it over. Only then will I be impressed. 

700 yards in the first two games with no interceptions.     He has already put together two great games that are personal bests.  He could have 5 such games in a row and you or the other hand ringers would find something to complain about.

 

It is said that you can not enjoy the best team the Bills have put together in a generation.   Just take a deep breath, relax, and jump on the bandwagon.

You missed week 1? Why even talk if you didnt even know this is his second week in a row?

Sarcasm. He did all of those things.

Picking Josh in the draft where he was picked was a big time gamble.  Allen had measurables any NFL coach would die for, but he had a background that declared he would need significant time to develop, and the more time it takes for development, the greater the odds that it never happens.  This is not a criticism of Brandon Beane.  There are times when an NFL GM has to make a gamble if he wants to give his team a chance for greatness.  The two seasons it took for Josh Allen to develop (actually less than that because part of that time he didn't start) was less than some thought it might take.  Now, Allen has arrived, Beane looks like a genius and we have entered what could be a new golden age for the Bills!

I think you missed KtD’s intent.

He missed one deep throw today, and it was miscommunication. 
 

That’s right, only one.  Just amazing his progression there 

Yes, and while I haven't seen the replay other than in-game, it looked to me like it might have been the same route on the next play...only this time, instead of continuing across the field, Smoke cuts up the way Josh wanted him to the first time.

Me too. 

 

It was the perfect place to throw it. The only person who had a shot was Gabe. But it was a 20/80 chance. Incredible catch.


Agreed, just saying Allen also made excellent play in pocket to extend play and put the ball in the only place Davis had a shot.  Just amazing play from both players.  I am loving Davis potential

Was that the OT game against the Vikes? I still remember tearing my hair out during that game. Can't believe it was 18 years ago!

 

the OT game we won and Bledsoe actually had 463 yards there. Bledsoe did have more than 400 yds in that game - so your memory cells are still doing fin (i had to look these up)

 

a few weeks later we lost to the Raiders with Bledsoe having 417 yards.

I am so glad I was wrong on hating this pick.  I wanted Mayfield and then Rosen. 

The two guys I DIDN'T want were Allen and Jackson. But I got on board with Allen pretty quickly.

I think it was seen as a gamble because so many people thought it was based on arm strength. Kind of like when Russell was drafted number one and people were creaming about him throwing it through the uprights from the 50 on one knee.

 

I believe the biggest reason they drafted him was his attitude and confidence. You could see it in the guy from the moment he hurdled the Vikings linebacker in his second game. You could see it again today when their backs were against the wall and he just launches one down the field like it was the first play of the game.

Ah, I can't remember much from the Raiders game. The Vikes game is etched in my memory because I was so hyped up when Price scored the winner
