Logic Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 I just saw this on SportsCenter, during an interview about Monday night's game. Like the title says, Allen is one of just two QBs in the league with an 80 or better QBR against both man and zone coverage. The other QB? One Patrick Mahomes. Say what you want about QBR as a metric, but it sure seems like Josh is solving the puzzles defensive coordinators are throwing at him as the season goes along. 12 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need that to get out of triangles. He has long arms, though. He's obviously taller than 6 feet. I bet you get him by 10 lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be a crappy QB without all of them I think Allen is a very good QB with a lot of room and willingness to improve, but having a good Rating aganist diferents coverages sepeaks a lot about play desing and how good he was teached Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed...it is a team sport, after all. But it does say quite a bit about Josh, also. He has clearly improved in every facet of his game including: Reading defenses Going through his progressions Accuracy Setting up receivers for YAC Decision making Much less ‘hero ball’ Long ball I suspect there’s more that others can add to the list but that’s a good start. 😃 There is zero doubt in my mind that we have our franchise QB. Now all I want is that he thinks along the lines of TB and takes a little off the next contract to ensure he’s surrounded by other offensive weapons. Wishful thinking? Probably...but a guy can hope.

Just so I’m clear, did you read any part of my comment as a criticism of Allen? Because nothing can be further about how I feel about Josh’s maturation and command of this offense. My only point was that he has a group of receivers who are adept at recognizing coverages both pre and post snap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agreed but was also trying to make the point that he has indeed improved across many aspects of his game so it’s not all on the weapons...it’s a combination. Apologies if I came across poorly...wasn’t my intent. Edited December 4, 2020 by TroutDog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
