Watching the Chiefs and the Bucs play shows how far the Bills are from their class.  I don't believe Josh Allen has regressed.  Defenses have adjusted to take away the deep ball. Against the Titans and Chiefs, he wasn't patient enough to take the check-downs and struggled.  That changed today, and he began taking what the defense gave him. Although we couldn't punch it in the endzone, the offense moved the ball on every drive and didn't even punt once. Overall, he played very well.  Just because Allen has "broken out" doesn't mean he's a finished product, or that he's stopped developing. Today was greatly encouraging, because the Jets tried to do the same thing he was struggling with for two weeks... and he was able to overcome it and play very well. If he continues to show patience and willingness to pick teams apart, those deep throws will eventually start opening up again.  2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Allen has over 2,000 yards with 16 TDs and 4 INTs over 7 games, plus 3 rushing TDs. I'm not going to freak out that the first 4 games were better than the next 3. I'm going to remember what it was like watching Trent Edwards, Kyle Orton, Tyrod Taylor and Nathan Peterman and be happy that Sundays are worth looking forward to for more than just being a day off work. 5 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take what they give you, eh? Brown being out does hurt the offense. Nice to see the RBs more involved today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
