The Allen Leap: 70.4% Completion % and 122.9 Passer Rating through 2 games


Recommended Posts

with 7 TDs and 2 Turnovers.

 

Were there missed throws?

 

Sure.

 

Should they detract from what the overarching national discussion should be about the Bills this week--that ALLEN HAS ARRIVED--no.

 

This was a truly great pocket passing performance. Allen didn't need his legs.

 

So excited about this guy with the weapons around him moving forward!

I really do believe that's the case he made today... combined with last week.


Yep. Over 70% completion, 700 yards, 6 TDs, no INTs through two weeks. Came up big in the 4th quarter (nothing new for him).

On pace to throw 48 TDs. I don't think he'll actually hit that number but...wow. 

The way he played all game today -- and especially in the 4th quarter -- has convinced me that he's a franchise guy.

Scary thing is, I still don't think he's reached his ceiling.

I think what was so exciting (although a tad frustrating as a fan of the bills), was that the defense sucked, the run game was inconsistent, the fins were gunning for the win, and Allen carried the team all day. MVP numbers.

 

Exactly what we've been waiting for. He's the man.

Josh Allen Is Ablaze: Last week was about dink-and-dunk, this week they opened things up and went after the Dolphins safeties, especially in the fourth quarter when Allen—with the exception of one miscommunication with John Brown that left a big play on the field (and was probably the quarterback’s fault)—was spectacular. He threw for 417 on 35 pass attempts and had four touchdowns with no turnovers, leading a fourth-quarter comeback with two touchdown drives in the final 10 minutes. The Jets and Dolphins (minus Bryon Jones) aren’t world-beaters, but Allen is sitting at 9.00 yards per attempt, a completion percentage over 70, and six touchdowns without an interception through two games. He'll miss some layups and people will get all worked up about it. But the stress he put on his first two opponents—due to his arm talent, legs and improved accuracy—has been overwhelming.

 

 

Monson is still... well... you decide...
