Buffalo_Stampede Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 3 hours ago, Buffalo716 said: Yea what's off is that Josh Allen has been the only one to show up week in and week out Our offensive line and play calling has 100% left him out to dry It's the Josh Allen show or the bills have no chance.. I'd be pissed too What people don't realize is Josh Allen is very much in control of play calls and OL protection calls. If the line is getting their butt kicked he can alter protection to give himself more protection. Allen is making a lot of poor decisions post snap also. Like keeping the ball when he should hand it off. This doesn't take the OL off the hook, they're getting their butts kicked but when that happens typically you make changes in protection. They did not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did not. You can clearly see Josh Allen making calls at the line for years.. identifying the Mike and whatnot Something tells me he's not telling Cody Ford to triple team a player , or to whiff on a block in a second Everybody's described him as a smart football player I'm pretty sure he's probably making the right line calls more often than not.. we'll never know unless the coaches come out and say he's not Our line gets confused with twists and stunts and pressure packages.. that's not on Josh Allen.. that's on the people preparing the line Edited November 10, 2021 by Buffalo716 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 The Bills are 0-3 when Josh throws 40+ attempts. Our OL has regressed, refs hate us and the cover 2 is catching up to Josh and Mahomes. A wise man once said " if a player can do anything, he tries to do everything".....Josh needs help.....

I agree the OL is getting worked up front but I think it's a combination of confused lineman and poor protection calls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if you've also noticed but we're also extremely slow getting the play call in It's hard to change the play sometimes.. when you're not set up till there's only 10 seconds left on the play clock That's not a lot of time to see the defensive alignment and audible to the correct call... Whether the call is slow coming in, or it's slow getting called... Or a combination of both it really doesn't matter It's hard to audible to the correct call when you're coming to the line with 10 seconds left on the clock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't notice that but if they are slow to get the play in that would be a problem. I didn't notice it just watching the game though. I remember a few times the snap came at 1. Bills seem pretty good getting the plays in from what I can remember. Maybe they're trying new things. I don't know. All I know is Allen isn't himself. The guy was passing up open Diggs. Last year he'd take a little 8 yard curl to Diggs all day long until they took it away.

That's something that can be corrected by throwing to the read when he sees it As anybody knows who's watched Allen for years... He sometimes will pass open an open look that he sees for something deeper downfield It's something he's also corrected a lot so I don't see why he won't adjust again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
